I'm writing a Jax-RS application using Jersey, and Jackson2 under the hood to facilitate JSON i/o. The service itself works fine, but I'd like to improve it by having the Jackson mapper automagically serialize/deserialize date and date-times to JodaTime objects.
I'm following the documentation here and have added the relevant jars, but I'm lost on this instruction:
Registering module
To use Joda datatypes with Jackson, you will first need to register the module first (same as with all Jackson datatype modules):
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
mapper.registerModule(new JodaModule());
I've tried to do this in the custom class that extends jax.ws.rs.core.Application, but I'm not at all confident in that solution. I'm currently getting this error:
Can not instantiate value of type [simple type, class org.joda.time.DateTime] from String value ('2014-10-22'); no single-String constructor/factory method
at [Source: org.glassfish.jersey.message.internal.ReaderInterceptorExecutor$UnCloseableInputStream@3471b6d5; line: 7, column: 25]
Other than the general impression that this module registration needs to happen at application (servlet?) startup, I have no idea what to do with this information. Do I need to annotate a custom class with something in particular to have it picked up ? Should I be extending some class ?
The examples I find on StackOverflow usually stick it in main()
and call the mapper directly, but I'm relying on Jackson Databinding so the examples aren't relevant. Any direction is appreciated.
