Add ability to export data from Java class structure

[aparod]

I started using this library hoping to be able to read an ONIX file into Java, make changes, then output my changes to a different file. Jonix makes the first two tasks easy, but there seems to be no support for exporting data directly from the Java classes. I would like to be able to do something like this:

File outputFile = new File("/path/to/output/file.xml");
PrintStream printStream = new PrintStream(outputFile);

ONIXWriter onixWriter = new ONIXWriter(header, product); // or maybe an ONIXMessage
onixWriter.setOnixVersion(3);
onixWriter.setOutputFormat("xml"); // Or JSON, CSV, etc
onixWriter.setPrintStream(printStream);
onixWriter.write();

Hi Adam
Exporting back to XML is not something i've seen much demand for. and therefore never included it in my roadmap.
Nevertheless, it isn't too difficult to implement. I might be adding it soon..

Hi Zach,
thank you for the library and your work!

I have to convert an ONIX 2 format into ONIX 3 and wanted to use your library for that. Is it possible to convert a Onix2-Product (or a BaseProduct) into a Onix3-Product and then somehow generate the XML for the product?

Thanks and best regards,
Timo
