Jackson JSON
Spring offers support for the Jackson JSON library.
JSON Views
Spring WebFlux provides built-in support for
Jackson’s Serialization Views,
which allows rendering only a subset of all fields in an Object
. To use it with
@ResponseBody
or ResponseEntity
controller methods, you can use Jackson’s
@JsonView
annotation to activate a serialization view class, as the following example shows:
-
Java
-
Kotlin
@RestController
public class UserController {
@GetMapping("/user")
@JsonView(User.WithoutPasswordView.class)
public User getUser() {
return new User("eric", "7!jd#h23");
}
}
public class User {
public interface WithoutPasswordView {};
public interface WithPasswordView extends WithoutPasswordView {};
private String username;
private String password;
public User() {
}
public User(String username, String password) {
this.username = username;
this.password = password;
}
@JsonView(WithoutPasswordView.class)
public String getUsername() {
return this.username;
}
@JsonView(WithPasswordView.class)
public String getPassword() {
return this.password;
}
}
@RestController
class UserController {
@GetMapping("/user")
@JsonView(User.WithoutPasswordView::class)
fun getUser(): User {
return User("eric", "7!jd#h23")
}
}
class User(
@JsonView(WithoutPasswordView::class) val username: String,
@JsonView(WithPasswordView::class) val password: String
) {
interface WithoutPasswordView
interface WithPasswordView : WithoutPasswordView
}
@JsonView allows an array of view classes but you can only specify only one per
controller method. Use a composite interface if you need to activate multiple views.
