This app allows a user to paste in an instance of a json document, and have it generate strongly typed Apex code that can deserialize it.
Its written in Java using the Play! framework.
For many years it was available at https://json2apex.herokuapp.com however Heroku discontinued the free tier and its no longer online there.
You can now access it instead at https://superfell.com/json2apex
Or you can run it locally via docker with
docker run -p 9091:9091 -d ghcr.io/superfell/json2apex:latest
once running open your browser at http://localhost:9091
JSON2Apex is open source under the MIT license.
The integration-test folder contains a modified version of beatbox that can call the compileClass API in the Apex API, there's a test runner that will post the test json's to a running instance of the app and then send them to saleforce, if salesforce reports a compilation error, that's logged in the test runner output.
the test runner requires python3 and a salesforce developer edition org.
_Warning, it'll overwrite any class called JSON2ApexIntegration[Test] you might have
run the integration tests from the integration-test folder with
python3 tests.py <sfdc_username> <sfdc_password>
you'll get output similar to
