How to exclude a field in Gson during serialization in Java?
The Gson library provided a simple approach to exclude fields from serialization using a transient modifier. If we make a field in a Java class as transient then Gson can ignore for both serialization and deserialization.
Example
import com.google.gson.*;
public class GsonTransientFieldTest {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Gson gson = new GsonBuilder().setPrettyPrinting().create();
Person p = new Person("Raja", "Ramesh", 28, 35000.00);
String jsonStr = gson.toJson(p);
System.out.println(jsonStr);
}
}
//Person class
class Person {
private String firstName;
private transient String lastName;
private int age;
private transient double salary;
public Person(String firstName, String lastName, int age, double salary) {
super();
this.firstName = firstName;
this.lastName = lastName;
this.age = age;
this.salary = salary;
}
}Output
{
"firstName": "Raja",
"age": 28
}
