The sample application illustrate the use of the JSON to Tuple and Tuple to JSON operators. In this sample, the operator takes an input tuple and produces a JSON string, it then takes that string and produces a tuple. The sample is set up with a schema to try out various data types converting from tuples to JSON strings and back.
See the description of the operators' Properties views in Using the JSON to Tuple Operator and Using the Tuple to JSON Operator.
In StreamBase Studio, import this sample with the following steps:
-
From the top-level menu, click >.
-
Enter

If the red marks do not resolve themselves after a minute, select the project, right-click, and select > from the context menu.
-
Open the
src/main/eventflow/folder.packageName -

-
Experiment by entering other values in the fields of the TestInput stream, clicking , and observing the resulting output tuples.
-
When done, press F9 or click the
Terminate EventFlow Fragment button.
