Jackson Annotations - @JsonInclude
Overview
@JsonInclude annotation is used to exclude properties having null/empty or default values.
Example - Serialization without using @JsonInclude
JacksonTester.java
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.io.IOException; import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper; public class JacksonTester { public static void main(String args[]){ ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper(); try { Student student = new Student(1,null); String jsonString = mapper .writerWithDefaultPrettyPrinter() .writeValueAsString(student); System.out.println(jsonString); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } } class Student { public int id; public String name; Student(int id,String name){ this.id = id; this.name = name; } }
Output
Run the JacksonTester and verify the output −
{ "id" : 1, "name" : null }
Example - Serialization with @JsonInclude
JacksonTester.java
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.io.IOException; import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonInclude; import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper; public class JacksonTester { public static void main(String args[]){ ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper(); try { Student student = new Student(1,null); String jsonString = mapper .writerWithDefaultPrettyPrinter() .writeValueAsString(student); System.out.println(jsonString); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } } @JsonInclude(JsonInclude.Include.NON_NULL) class Student { public int id; public String name; Student(int id,String name){ this.id = id; this.name = name; } }
Output
Run the JacksonTester and verify the output −
{ "id" : 1 }
Here we can see, without using @JsonInclude, Jackson is serializing all values including null as well. Using @JsonInclude we can define the values which are to be ignored during serialization.
