Nashorn ScriptObjectMirror JS & # 8594; Java type conversion

Question

When I access a member variable of a JavaScript object using Nashorn ScriptObjectMirror.get (), the return type of the object seems to be determined at runtime. For example, if a value fits into a Java int, get () seems to return a Java Integer. If the value does not match int, get () seems to return Java Long, etc.

I am now using instanceof to type check and convert a value to long.

Is there a more convenient way to get a member value without loss and without type checking in Java? Perhaps Nashorn can always give me a Java Double, throwing an error if the member is not numeric.

I can imagine that this is a rather narrow case, which probably should not be handled by Nashorn ...

Example:

package com.tangotangolima.test.nashorn_types;

import jdk.nashorn.api.scripting.ScriptObjectMirror;

import javax.script.ScriptEngine;
import javax.script.ScriptEngineManager;
import javax.script.ScriptException;
import java.io.StringReader;

public class Main {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws ScriptException {
        final ScriptEngineManager mgr = new ScriptEngineManager();
        final ScriptEngine js = mgr.getEngineByName("nashorn");

        final String script = "" +
                "var p = 1;" +
                "var q = " + (Integer.MAX_VALUE + 1L) + ";" +
                "var r = {" +
                "s: 1," +
                "t: " + (Integer.MAX_VALUE + 1L) +
                " };";

        js.eval(new StringReader(script));

        say(js.get("p").getClass().getName());      // -> java.lang.Integer
        say(js.get("q").getClass().getName());      // -> java.lang.Long

        final ScriptObjectMirror r = (ScriptObjectMirror) js.get("r");

        say(r.get("s").getClass().getName());       // -> java.lang.Integer
        say(r.get("t").getClass().getName());       // -> java.lang.Long
    }

    static void say(String s) {
        System.out.println(s);
    }
}

Answer 1

- " java.lang.Number" java- - "" JavaScript. Number int, long, double, , intValue, longValue ..

ScriptObjectMirror JS → Java

private static Object convertIntoJavaObject(Object scriptObj) {
    if (scriptObj instanceof ScriptObjectMirror) {
        ScriptObjectMirror scriptObjectMirror = (ScriptObjectMirror) scriptObj;
        if (scriptObjectMirror.isArray()) {
            List<Object> list = Lists.newArrayList();
            for (Map.Entry<String, Object> entry : scriptObjectMirror.entrySet()) {
                list.add(convertIntoJavaObject(entry.getValue()));
            }
            return list;
        } else {
            Map<String, Object> map = Maps.newHashMap();
            for (Map.Entry<String, Object> entry : scriptObjectMirror.entrySet()) {
                map.put(entry.getKey(), convertIntoJavaObject(entry.getValue()));
            }
            return map;
        }
    } else {
        return scriptObj;
    }
}

public static void main(String[] args) throws ScriptException, NoSuchMethodException {
    final ScriptEngine engine = new ScriptEngineManager().getEngineByName("nashorn");
    engine.eval("function objProvider(){return {a:1, b:'2','c': true,'d': {'e':[],'f':['1',{'g':45}]}};}");
    final Object scriptObj = ((Invocable) engine).invokeFunction("objProvider");

    Object javaObj = convertIntoJavaObject(scriptObj);
    System.out.println(javaObj);
    //{a=1, b=2, c=true, d={e=[], f=[1, {g=45}]}}
}
