Hi Peter, I hope this link - https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CTAKES/Piper+Files should help you out. Also as far as I know, I doubt JsonCasSerializer has been packaged for Piper.
Sean could elaborate more on this but I guess he is on vacation.

However, hasn't been that easy, and just trying from the documentation with the Creator GUI, a lot of permutations don't seem to work - at least without knowing each component's idiosyncracies. I was wondering if there was some unofficial documentation to supplement what is out there on your site. (Unfortunately I have changed emails to change of work, so I don't have the archive of previous suggestions where this may have already been covered) 1. Using the Piper CreaterGUI What does it mean when I include a component, for instance XMIWriter2 and on validation shows up in red even though it has no unfulfilled mandatory parameters? 2 If I use one of the example piper files from the distribution, it runs. But I notice there they contain no output components. But if I "add" any output XMI output method, it fails with an exception like this: *MESSAGE LOCALIZATION FAILED: Can't find resource for bundle java.util.PropertyResourceBundle, key Not AnalysisComponent org.apache.ctakes.core.cc.CasConsumer.* (many other components have similar error messages when I add them) Only one of the pretty print methods works with "add". NB the writeXmis shortcut works. 3. Has the JsonCasSerializer been packaged for the Piper?
