jackson nested object map implementation












1















Is there any way to tell jackson library whish Map implementation to use in nested object?
I have some Map extended from HashMap, I dont care of fields order



public class FieldsMap<K, V> extends HashMap<K, V> {
@Override
public V get(Object field) {
V value = super.get(field);
if (value == null && !containsKey(field)) {
log.warn("Query unknown field " + field);
}
return value;
}
}


And ObjectMapper.readValue return this class



final TypeReference<FieldsMap<String, Object>> mapType =
new TypeReference<FieldsMap<String, Object>>() {};

Map<String, Object> res = new ObjectMapper().readValue("{"a": {"b": 0}}", mapType);
res.get("c"); // warning


But nested object is always LinkedHashMap



System.out.println(res.get("a").getClass().getName()); // java.util.LinkedHashMap
((Map)res.get("a")).get("c"); // no warning


It will be helpful in test environments.

  • your json is nested json, and always nested json is with key value pair and treated as Map

  • I mean subobjects in json tree, element "a" in my example. Need a comon solution where you dont know tree structure

You must add a an abstract type mapping to your ObjectMapper. This is done with a module:



import com.fasterxml.jackson.core.type.TypeReference;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.module.SimpleModule;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;

public class FieldsMap<K, V> extends HashMap<K, V> {

@Override
public V get(Object field) {
V value = super.get(field);
if (value == null && !containsKey(field)) {
System.out.println("Query unknown field " + field);
}
return value;
}

public static void main(String args) throws IOException {
final TypeReference<FieldsMap<String, Object>> mapType = new TypeReference<FieldsMap<String, Object>>() {};
ObjectMapper objectMapper = new ObjectMapper();
SimpleModule module = new SimpleModule().addAbstractTypeMapping(Map.class, FieldsMap.class);
objectMapper.registerModule(module);
Map<String, Object> res = objectMapper.readValue("{"a": {"b": 0}}", mapType);
res.get("c");
System.out.println(res.get("a").getClass().getName());
((Map)res.get("a")).get("c");
}
}


This will instruct Jackson to use your custom type FieldsMap each time a Map is needed.



The output is:



Query unknown field c
FieldsMap
Query unknown field c
