A Retrofit converter implementation using Thrifty for (de)serialization of Apache Thrift requests and responses.

It supports Binary, Compact and Json Thrift protocols. It supports Thrifty models generated in both Java and Kotlin.

Add the library as a dependency to your build.gradle to automatically download it from Maven Central.

implementation "com.infinum:retrofit-converter-thrifty:3.0.0"

... and add the converter factory when you create the Retrofit object.

Retrofit retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder()
    .baseUrl("https://example.com/api/")
    .addConverterFactory(ThriftyConverterFactory.create(ProtocolType.COMPACT))
    .build();

We also maintain a changelog.

Feedback and code contributions are very much welcome. Just make a pull request with a short description of your changes. By making contributions to this project you give permission for your code to be used under the same license.

In case source files need to be generated from .thrift files using a different version of the thrifty compiler, use these commands:

wget https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/microsoft/thrifty/thrifty-compiler/2.1.2/thrifty-compiler-2.1.2-all.jar
java -jar thrifty-compiler-2.1.2-all.jar --out=retrofit-converter-thrifty/src/test/java/ --lang=java retrofit-converter-thrifty/src/test/resources/phone.thrift
java -jar thrifty-compiler-2.1.2-all.jar --out=retrofit-converter-thrifty/src/test/kotlin/ --lang=kotlin --kt-file-per-type retrofit-converter-thrifty/src/test/resources/phone.thrift

To publish to Maven Central you first need to set the following Gradle properties:

signing.keyId=<GPG_KEY_ID>
signing.password=<GPG_KEY_PASSWORD>
signing.secretKeyRingFile=<GPG_SECRING_LOCATION>

sonatypeUrl=https://oss.sonatype.org/service/local/staging/deploy/maven2/
sonatypeUsername=<SONATYPE_USERNAME>
sonatypePassword=<SONATYPE_PASSWORD>

To deploy a new version to Maven Central, use deploy.sh:

./publish.sh <artifact version> [optional tag message]

The publish.sh script will automatically push a tag with the version name and change the version in the README.

All you need to do after the script runs is to press release in Sonatype OSS.
