|
|
|
+ * \ingroup QtProtobuf
|
|
|
+ * \brief The QProtobufSerializationPluginInterface class is interface that provides possibility
|
|
|
+ * to load serialization/deserialization implementations to project via Qt plugin mechanism.
|
|
|
+ *
|
|
|
+ * \details This class should be used as parent of main plugin class. Inherited class should reimplement
|
|
|
+ * scope of virtual methods that used by serialization/deserialization functionality. Plugin interface name
|
|
|
+ * should be declared via Q_INTERFACES macros. Plugin must provide metadata information about itself.
|
|
|
+ * Information is stored in json format and attached to plugin using Q_PLUGIN_METADATA macros. \n
|
|
|
+ * An example of class source code:
|
|
|
+ *
|
|
|
+ * \code{.cpp}
|
|
|
+ * class SERIALIZATIONSHARED_EXPORT QtSerializationPlugin : public QObject, QtProtobuf::QProtobufSerializationPluginInterface
|
|
|
+ * {
|
|
|
+ * Q_OBJECT
|
|
|
+ * Q_PLUGIN_METADATA(IID SerializatorInterface_iid FILE "serializeinfo.json")
|
|
|
+ * Q_INTERFACES(QtProtobuf::QProtobufSerializationPluginInterface)
|
|
|
+ *
|
|
|
+ * public:
|
|
|
+ * QtSerializationPlugin();
|
|
|
+ * ~QtSerializationPlugin() = default;
|
|
|
+ *
|
|
|
+ * virtual std::shared_ptr<QtProtobuf::QAbstractProtobufSerializer> serializer(const QString &serializerName);
|
|
|
+ *
|
|
|
+ * }
|
|
|
+ * \endcode
|
|
|
+ *
|
|
|
+ * An example of json file:
|
|
|
+ *
|
|
|
+ * \code{.json}
|
|
|
+ * {
|
|
|
+ * "name":"Test Plugin",
|
|
|
+ * "author":"Jhon Smith",
|
|
|
+ * "version":1.0,
|
|
|
+ * "protobufVersion":1.0,
|
|
|
+ * "types":["protobuf", "json"],
|
|
|
+ * "rating":0
|
|
|
+ * }
|
|
|
+ * \endcode
|
|
|
+ *
|
|
|
+ * Plugins are read by path that is defined by QT_PROTOBUF_PLUGIN_PATH variable.
|
|
|
+ * QtProtobuf reads plugins metadata list from protobuf plugin folder and provides to user possibility to choose plugin and serializer for serialization/deserialization.
