I am working on a project which has a custom JSON Serializer defined
public class JsonCustomSerializer extends JsonSerializer<CustomObject> {
@Override
public void serialize(
CustomObject customObject,
JsonGenerator jsonGenerator,
SerializerProvider serializerProvider)
throws IOException {
// custom implementation
}
}
I am using an ObjectMapper
and invoking writeValueAsString(Object)
method. This invokes the custom implementation as defined using the class JsonCustomSerializer
. How can I configure ObjectMapper
to not use the JsonCustomSerializer
? The custom serializer is used by another instance of ObjectMapper in the application.
To configure ObjectMapper
to ignore your custom serializer for a specific class, you can use the SimpleModule
class provided by Jackson. Here's an example of how you can do this:
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
// Create ObjectMapper
ObjectMapper objectMapper = new ObjectMapper();
// Create a SimpleModule
SimpleModule simpleModule = new SimpleModule();
// Disable the custom serializer for CustomObject class
simpleModule.addSerializer(CustomObject.class, new CustomObjectDefaultSerializer());
// Register the module with the ObjectMapper
objectMapper.registerModule(simpleModule);
// Now, when you use this objectMapper, it won't use your custom serializer for CustomObject
// Your code here...
}
}
