I am trying to write templates in VTL to generate java classes with telosys. My starting point is a directory (src/main/resources/templates/es) that contains json files (mapping1.json, mapping2.json, ...). The number and names of json files are unknown and may vary. I have to generate several java classes per json files.
I have already write a template for each java classe that i have to generate. But these templates work with a static embedded json object.
This an example:
#set($json = {
"template":"acces_formation",
"mappings":{
"data":{
"properties":{
"MATRICULE":{
"type":"string",
"index":"not_analyzed"
},
"NOM":{
"type":"string",
"index":"not_analyzed"
},
"DATE_NAIS":{
"type":"date",
"format":"dd/MM/yyyy"
},
"SEXE":{
"type":"string",
"index":"not_analyzed"
},
"GRADE":{
"type":"string",
"index":"not_analyzed"
}
}
}
}
})

What i need now is to:
1- browse my json directory, get each json file and apply the templates on that json to create the java classes for that json file.
2- properly configure the file templates.cfg to create java class file with the java class name. Concerning this point, i heve tried to modify the variable ${BEANNAME}, ${BEANNAME_UC}, ${BEANNAME_LC} (given by default by telosys) since the template. But it did not work: They still empty and No file is generated. This is the content of the file templates.cfg :
#---------------------------------------------------------
# Templates configuration file
# Values separated by ";"
# . value 1 : the label
# . value 2 : the file to be generated ( var allowed : ${BEANNAME}, ${BEANNAME_UC}, ${BEANNAME_LC} )
# . value 3 : the project folder where to generate ( var allowed : ${BEANNAME}, ${BEANNAME_UC}, ${BEANNAME_LC} )
# . value 4 : the template to use
# . value 5 : number of execution : "1" for "ONCE" for all entities, default is multiple executions ( executed for each entity )
#---------------------------------------------------------
# Since v 2.0 the project's variables can be used in file and folder name
#---------------------------------------------------------

Thank you for helping me please !
Thank you for your help. I did what @lgu explained to me above and it works very well. But with this version i can't choose which json file i want to generate the java classes. I can not also choose which template file i want to apply. These 2 problems make me think to an other version with an other way to do what i want: I thought about taking advantage of the dbrep file. So in 2nd version, i generate the dbrep file (which is an xml file) with the DOM of java. I followed this tutorial to fill the dbrep xml tag with the json files elements. Each json file becomes a
<table>element in the the<tableList>element. And the json file properties become the<column>elements in the<table>element. The final dbrep file look like this:I did not need to write more templates. I used the same tempates I use for generation from Mysql and everything is done
