I'm getting the following error in a Normalized Data Model structure in MongoDB:
org.bson.codecs.configuration.CodecConfigurationException: Can't find a codec for class com.mongodb.DBRef
It's caused by this line:
System.out.println(document.toJson());
Specifically the toJson()
part. I have a DBRef Object in my Document, so I can reference a Document from another Collection. An Embedded Document Structure is not option. So how can I fix this?
You have to import the DBRef Codec for it to print it, if u want it in a document json style you need to write your own Codec for DBRef and add it to the codecregistry you give toJson().
e.g.
CodecRegistry codecRegistry = MongoClientSettings.getDefaultCodecRegistry();
-------
final DocumentCodec codec = new DocumentCodec(codecRegistry, new BsonTypeClassMap());
-------
System.out.println(document.toJson(codec));
