The Jackson @JacksonInject annotation can be used to inject the values into parsed objects instead of reading those values from the JSON. In order to inject values into a field, we can use the InjectableValues class and need to configure the ObjectMapper class to read both the injected values from the InjectableValues class and the remaining values from the JSON string.Syntax@Target(value={ANNOTATION_TYPE, METHOD, FIELD, PARAMETER}) @Retention(value=RUNTIME) public @interface JacksonInjectExampleimport com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.*; import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.*; import java.io.*; public class JacksonInjectTest { public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException { String jsonString = "{\"empName\": \"Raja Ramesh\"}"; InjectableValues injectableValues = new InjectableValues.Std().addValue(int.class, 110); ...

The Jackson @JsonIgnoreType annotation can be used to ignore a class during the serialization process and it can mark all the properties or fields of a class to be ignored while serializing and deserializing a JSON object.Syntax@Target(value={ANNOTATION_TYPE, TYPE}) @Retention(value=RUNTIME) public @interface JsonIgnoreTypeExampleimport com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.*; import com.fasterxml.jackson.core.*; import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.*; import java.io.*; public class JsonIgnoreTypeTest { public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException { Employee emp = new Employee(); ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper(); String jsonString = mapper.writerWithDefaultPrettyPrinter().writeValueAsString(emp); System.out.println(jsonString); } } // Employee class class Employee { @JsonIgnoreType public static class Address { ...

A Gson is a json library for Java and it can be used to generate a JSON. In the initial step, we can read a JSON file and parsing to a Java object then need to typecast the Java object to a JSonObject and parsing to a JsonArray. Then iterating this JSON array to print the JsonElement. We can create a JsonWriter class to write a JSON encoded value to a stream, one token at a time. Finally, a new JSON string can be written to an existing json file. Exampleimport java.io.*; import java.util.*; import com.google.gson.*; import com.google.gson.stream.*; import com.google.gson.annotations.*; public class JSONFilewriteTest { ... Read More
The @JsonIgnoreProperties Jackson annotation can be used to specify a list of properties or fields of a class to ignore. The @JsonIgnoreProperties annotation can be placed above the class declaration instead of above the individual properties or fields to ignore.Syntax@Target(value={ANNOTATION_TYPE, TYPE, METHOD, CONSTRUCTOR, FIELD}) @Retention(value=RUNTIME) public @interface JsonIgnorePropertiesExampleimport java.io.*; import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.*; import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.*; public class JsonIgnorePropertiesTest { public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException { Customer customer = new Customer("120", "Ravi", "Hyderabad"); System.out.println(customer); ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper(); String jsonString = mapper.writeValueAsString(customer); System.out.println("JSON: " + jsonString); ...

The Gson @SerializedName annotation can be serialized to a JSON with the provided name value as its field name. This annotation can override any FieldNamingPolicy including the default field naming policy that may have been set on the Gson instance. A different naming policy can set using the GsonBuilder class.Syntax@Retention(value=RUNTIME) @Target(value={FIELD, METHOD}) public @interface SerializedNameExampleimport com.google.gson.annotations.*; import com.google.gson.*; public class SerializedNameAnnotationTest { public static void main(String args[]) { Employee emp = new Employee("Rahul", "Dev", 30, "Nagpur"); Gson gson = new GsonBuilder().setPrettyPrinting().create(); // pretty print String jsonStr = gson.toJson(emp); System.out.println(jsonStr); } ...

The @JsonAutoDetect annotation can be used at the class level to override the visibility of the properties of a class during serialization and deserialization. We can set the visibility with the properties like "creatorVisibility", "fieldVisibility", "getterVisibility", "setterVisibility" and "isGetterVisibility". The JsonAutoDetect class can define public static constants that are similar to Java class visibility levels like "ANY", "DEFAULT", "NON_PRIVATE", "NONE", "PROTECTED_AND_PRIVATE" and "PUBLIC_ONLY".Exampleimport com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.*; import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.*; import java.io.*; public class JsonAutoDetectTest { public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException { Address address = new Address("Madhapur", "Hyderabad", "Telangana"); Name name = new Name("Raja", "Ramesh"); Student student ...

The Jackson @JsonIgnore annotation can be used to ignore a certain property or field of a Java object. The property can be ignored both when reading JSON into Java objects and when writing Java objects into JSON. We can use the readValue() and writeValueAsString() methods of ObjectMapper class to read a JSON to Java Object and to write a Java object to JSON.Syntax@Target(value={ANNOTATION_TYPE, METHOD, CONSTRUCTOR, FIELD}) @Retention(value=RUNTIME) public @interface JsonIgnoreExampleimport java.io.*; import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.*; import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.*; public class JsonIgnoreTest { public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException { Customer customer = new Customer("110", "Surya Kiran", "Chennai"); System.out.println(customer); ...

The Flexjson is a lightweight library for serializing and deserializing Java objects into and from JSON format. A JSONSerializer is the main class for performing serialization of Java objects to JSON. We can serialize a JSON string to an Output Handler using the WriterOutputHandler class and it implements the OutputHandler interface.Syntaxpublic class WriterOutputHandler extends Object implements OutputHandlerExampleimport java.io.*; import flexjson.JSONSerializer; import flexjson.OutputHandler; import flexjson.WriterOutputHandler; public class JsonOutputHandlerTest { public static void main(String[] args) { JSONSerializer serializer = new JSONSerializer().prettyPrint(true); // pretty print JSON Employee emp = new Employee("Raja", "Ramesh", 28, "Hyderabad"); OutputHandler out = new WriterOutputHandler(new ...

The JSON is one of the widely used data-interchange formats and is a lightweight and language independent. We can convert a JSONObject to cookie using the toString() method and convert a cookie to JSONObject using the toJSONObject() method of org.json.Cookie class.Convert JSONObject to cookieSyntaxpublic static java.lang.String toString(JSONObject jo) throws JSONExceptionExampleimport org.json.Cookie; import org.json.JSONObject; public class JSONObjectToCookieTest { public static void main(String args[]) { JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject(); jsonObject.put("path", "/"); jsonObject.put("expires", "Thu, 07 May 2020 12:00:00 UTC"); jsonObject.put("name", "username"); jsonObject.put("value", "Adithya"); String cookie = Cookie.toString(jsonObject); ...

A JSONObject is an unordered collection of name/value pairs and parses text from a String to produce a map-like object. However, we can auto-increment the property of a JSONObject using the increment() method of JSONObject class. If there is no such property, create one with a value of 1. If there is such a property and if it is an Integer, Long, Double or Float then add one to it.Syntaxpublic JSONObject increment(java.lang.String key) throws JSONExceptionExampleimport org.json.JSONException; import org.json.JSONObject; public class IncrementJSONObjectTest { public static void main(String[] args) throws JSONException { JSONObject jsonObj = new JSONObject(); jsonObj.put("year", 2019); ...
