Serialization

Serializing transforms

DataVec comes with the ability to serialize transforms, which allows them to be more portable when they're needed for production environments. A TransformProcess is serialzied to a human-readable format such as JSON and can be saved as a file.

Serialization

The code below shows how you can serialize the transform process tp.

String serializedTransformString = tp.toJson()

Deserialization

When you want to reinstantiate the transform process, call the static from<format> method.

TransformProcess tp = TransformProcess.fromJson(serializedTransformString)
