I need to return a json response in camelCase with finatra but it is in snake_case by default. From what I found so far, I need to use ObjectMapper, but I can't understand where do I pass it once I create it. An example would be very helpful. Here is what I have:
import com.twitter.finagle.http.Request
import com.twitter.finatra.http.Controller
class myTargetingController extends Controller {
val endpoint = "http://....."
get(s"$endpoint/?") { request: Request =>
// what do I do with it?
// val objectMapper = ScalaObjectMapper.builder.camelCaseObjectMapper
response.ok.json(myObject)
}
}
==================================================================
import com.twitter.finagle.{Service, SimpleFilter}
import com.twitter.finagle.http.{ Request, Response}
import com.twitter.finatra.http.routing.HttpRouter
import com.twitter.finatra.http.{HttpServer}
import com.twitter.finatra.http.filters.CommonFilters
import com.twitter.util.Future
object MyServerApp extends MyServer
class MyServer extends HttpServer {
override protected def configureHttp(router: HttpRouter) {
router
.filter[CommonFilters]
.add[CorsFilter, MyController]
}
}
P.S. I am very-very new to Scala
Following up from the comments
Define a custom ObjectMapperModule
class CamelCaseModule extends ScalaObjectMapperModule {
override val propertyNamingStrategy: PropertyNamingStrategy =
new PropertyNamingStrategy.UpperCamelCaseStrategy
override def additionalMapperConfiguration(mapper: ObjectMapper): Unit = {
mapper.configure(DeserializationFeature.FAIL_ON_UNKNOWN_PROPERTIES, true)
}
}
Override the default Jackson module for your server
override def jacksonModule = new CamelCaseModule
Make sure you have
"com.twitter" %% "finatra-jackson" % yourFinatraVersion % "test"
in your build.sbt
And that you import
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.{DeserializationFeature, Module, ObjectMapper, PropertyNamingStrategy}
import com.twitter.finatra.jackson.modules.ScalaObjectMapperModule
Tested it locally and it seems to work Hope this helps
