🔥 Spring Boot application which will accept XML documents in a family tree format, parse them and store them in the database. 🔥
The XML documents are in the following format:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<entries>
<entry>Adam</entry>
<entry parentName="Adam">Durim</entry>
<entry parentName="Durim">Nayla</entry>
<entry parentName="Adam">Jason</entry>
<entry parentName="Jason">Leta</entry>
<entry parentName="Jason">Benjamin</entry>
<entry parentName="Benjamin">Isaac</entry>
<entry parentName="Isaac">Robert</entry>
</entries>Upon parsing the document, the application forms a tree data structure and writes that tree in a database table called ENTRY.
The structure of the ENTRY table is shown below:
| Column Name | Column Type | Column Description |
|---|---|---|
| ID | Integer | Primary key (autogenerated) |
| NAME | String | Name of entry |
| PARENT_ID | Integer | Reference to parent entry |
XML documents can be sent to the application in two ways:
👉 Via HTTP POST requests: http://localhost:8080/documents with Content-Type: application/xml
👉 By placing the files to a predefined directory (the application checks this directory in a regular interval, e.g. every 30 seconds).
1️⃣ git clone https://github.com/durimkryeziu/family-tree-xml-parser.git
2️⃣ Set Environment Variables properly:
- set INPUT_DIRECTORY to the directory you want to scan for XML files of the previously mentioned format
- set PROCESSING_INTERVAL to the interval you what to scan for.
3️⃣ Run mvn clean install or mvn -Dmaven.test.skip=true clean install to skip tests
4️⃣ Run java -jar target/family-tree-xml-parser-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar and you are ready to go!
