public class NamedParamsRetriever
extends ParamsRetriever

Utility class for retrieving JSON-RPC 2.0 named parameters (key-value pairs packed into a JSON Object).

Provides a set of getter methods according to the expected parameter type (number, string, etc.) and whether the parameter is mandatory or optional:

There are also generic getter methods that let you do the type conversion yourself.

If a parameter cannot be retrieved, e.g. due to a missing mandatory parameter or bad type, a JSONRPC2Error.INVALID_PARAMS exception is thrown.

Example: suppose you have a method with 3 named parameters "name", "age" and "sex", where the last is optional and defaults to "female":

 // Parse received request string
 JSONRPC2Request request = null;

 try {
         request = JSONRPC2Request.parse(jsonString);
 } catch (JSONRPC2ParseException e) {
         // handle exception...
 }

 // Create a new retriever for named parameters
 Map params = (Map)request.getParams();
 NamedParamsRetriever r = new NamedParamsRetriever(params);

 try {
         // Extract "name" string parameter
         String name = r.getString("name");

         // Extract "age" integer parameter
         int age = r.getInt("age");

         // Extract optional "sex" string parameter which defaults to "female"
         String sex = r.getOptString("sex", "female");

 } catch (JSONRPC2Error e) {
         // A JSONRPC2Error.INVALID_PARAMS will be thrown to indicate
         // an unexpected parameter type or a missing mandatory parameter.
         // You can use it straight away to create the appropriate
         // JSON-RPC 2.0 error response.
         JSONRPC2Response response = new JSONRPC2Response(e, null);
 }
