Hessian Serialization [1.0](http://hessian.caucho.com/doc/hessian-1.0-spec.xtp) and
[2.0](http://hessian.caucho.com/doc/hessian-serialization.html) (base on version [4.0.7](http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.caucho/hessian/4.0.7)) written by pure JavaScript.
Support all kind of types in Java, with [high performance](benchmark/README.md).

## Install

```bash
$ npm install hessian.js
```

## Support Types

8 primitive types:

1. raw binary data
2. boolean
3. 64-bit millisecond date
4. 64-bit double
5. 32-bit int
6. 64-bit long
7. null
8. UTF8-encoded string

3 recursive types:

1. `list` for lists and arrays
2. `map` for maps and dictionaries
3. `object` for objects

one special contruct:

1. ref for shared and circular object references

Hessian 2.0 has 3 internal reference maps:

* An object/list reference map.
* An class definition reference map.
* A type (class name) reference map.

## Encoder

Tips: you can use with [js-to-java](https://github.com/node-modules/js-to-java) to help you write java class in js.

### Simple javascript type

```js
var hessian = require('hessian.js');
var java = require('js-to-java');
var encoder = new hessian.Encoder();

encoder.write(1); // int
encoder.write(1.1); // double
encoder.write(1e100); // double
encoder.write(Math.pow(2, 18)); // long
encoder.write(true); // boolean
encoder.write(null); // null
encoder.write('test'); // string

// java base types
encoder.write(java.long(3001010320)); // 3001010320L
encoder.write(java.double(100)); // double
encoder.write(java.array.int([0, 1, 2])); // int[] = {0, 1, 2}

var object = {};
object.prop1 = [1, 2, 3];
object.prop2 = 'string';
object.prop3 = {key: 'value'};
object.prop4 = object; // circular
encoder.write(object); // object
```

### Complex java type

```js
var hessian = require('hessian.js');
var encoder = new hessian.Encoder();

var long = {
$class: 'java.lang.Long',
$: 1
}
encoder.write(long); // long type

var testObject = {
$class: 'com.hessian.TestObject',
$: {
a: 1,
b: 'test',
c: {$class: 'java.lang.Long', $: 123}
}
};
encoder.write(testObject);
```

### Java Generic Map

```js
// java code:
// Map map = new HashMap();
// map.put(123L, 123456);
// map.put(123456L, 123);

var hessian = require('hessian.js');
var encoder = new hessian.Encoder();

// using es6 Map
var map = new Map();
map.set({ '$class': 'java.lang.Long', '$': 123 }, 123456);
map.set({ '$class': 'java.lang.Long', '$': 123456 }, 123);

encoder.write(map); // or encoder.write({ '$class': 'java.util.HashMap', '$': map })
```

### Consistent Java type

If a type of Class contains a plurality of data, you must ensure that the number of attributes, and each instance of the order is the same!

```
// Wrong

[
{$class: 'com.X', $: {a: 1, b: 2}},
{$class: 'com.X', $: {b: 22, a: 11}},
{$class: 'com.X', $: {a: 1, b: 2, c: 3}}]

// Right

[
{$class: 'com.X', $: {a: 1, b: 2, c: 0}},
{$class: 'com.X', $: {a: 11, b: 22, c: 0}},
{$class: 'com.X', $: {a: 1, b: 2, c: 3}},
]

```

## Decoder

```js
var hessian = require('hessian.js');
var decoder = new hessian.Decoder(buf);

decoder.read(); //return what it is
decoder.readNull();
decoder.readBool();
decoder.readInt();
decoder.readLong();
decoder.readDouble();
decoder.readDate();
decoder.readObect();
decoder.readMap();
decoder.readArray();
decoder.readList();
decoder.readRef();
```

## Simple Usage

hessian 1.0:

```js
var hessian = require('hessian.js');

var testObject = {
a: 1,
b: 'string',
c: true,
d: 1.1,
e: Math.pow(2, 40),
f: [1, 2, 3, '4', true, 5],
g: {a: 1, b: true, c: 'string'}
};

var buf;
try {
buf = hessian.encode(testObject);
} catch (err) {
console.log('encode error: ', err.message);
process.exit(1);
}

try {
var res = hessian.decode(buf);
// res.should.eql(testObject);
} catch (err) {
console.log('decode error: ', err.message);
}
```

hessian 2.0:

```js
var hessian = require('hessian.js');

var testObject = {
a: 1,
b: 'string',
c: true,
d: 1.1,
e: Math.pow(2, 40),
f: [1, 2, 3, '4', true, 5],
g: {a: 1, b: true, c: 'string'}
};

var buf;
try {
buf = hessian.encode(testObject, '2.0');
} catch (err) {
console.log('encode error: ', err.message);
process.exit(1);
}

try {
var res = hessian.decode(buf, '2.0');
// res.should.eql(testObject);
} catch (err) {
console.log('decode error: ', err.message);
}
```

## TODO

1. more unit test, include test with other language.
2. benchmark test.
3. ~~hessian 2.0 decode~~
3. ~~hessian 2.0 encode~~

## What's different between hassian 1.0 and 2.0?

* `R` meaning `ref` on 1.0, but `x52 ('R')` represents any non-final string chunk on 2.0

## Hessian 2.0 Bytecode map

Hessian 2.0 is organized as a bytecode protocol.
A Hessian reader is essentially a switch statement on the initial octet.

## About Hessian 2.0 Optimized Decoder
Hessian 2.0 introduced [ref](http://hessian.caucho.com/doc/hessian-serialization.html##ref) to avoid sending duplicated class definition in the same context. Actully, the `context` can promote to `connection` level in some RPC framework. For example, [EADS](https://www.aliyun.com/product/edas), Requests using the same connection will not change their class definition.
