Chapter 56. JSON Jackson
Jackson is a Data Format which uses the Jackson Library
from("activemq:My.Queue").
marshal().json(JsonLibrary.Jackson).
to("mqseries:Another.Queue");56.1. Dependencies
When using json-jackson with Red Hat build of Camel Spring Boot make sure to use the following Maven dependency to have support for auto configuration:
<dependency> <groupId>org.apache.camel.springboot</groupId> <artifactId>camel-jackson-starter</artifactId> </dependency>
56.2. Jackson Options
The JSON Jackson dataformat supports 20 options, which are listed below.
| Name | Default | Java Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| objectMapper |
| Lookup and use the existing ObjectMapper with the given id when using Jackson. | |
| useDefaultObjectMapper |
| Whether to lookup and use default Jackson ObjectMapper from the registry. | |
| prettyPrint |
| To enable pretty printing output nicely formatted. Is by default false. | |
| unmarshalType |
| Class name of the java type to use when unmarshalling. | |
| jsonView |
| When marshalling a POJO to JSON you might want to exclude certain fields from the JSON output. With Jackson you can use JSON views to accomplish this. This option is to refer to the class which has JsonView annotations. | |
| include |
| If you want to marshal a pojo to JSON, and the pojo has some fields with null values. And you want to skip these null values, you can set this option to NON_NULL. | |
| allowJmsType |
| Used for JMS users to allow the JMSType header from the JMS spec to specify a FQN classname to use to unmarshal to. | |
| collectionType |
| Refers to a custom collection type to lookup in the registry to use. This option should rarely be used, but allows to use different collection types than java.util.Collection based as default. | |
| useList |
| To unmarshal to a List of Map or a List of Pojo. | |
| moduleClassNames |
| To use custom Jackson modules com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.Module specified as a String with FQN class names. Multiple classes can be separated by comma. | |
| moduleRefs |
| To use custom Jackson modules referred from the Camel registry. Multiple modules can be separated by comma. | |
| enableFeatures |
| Set of features to enable on the Jackson com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper. The features should be a name that matches a enum from com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.SerializationFeature, com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.DeserializationFeature, or com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.MapperFeature Multiple features can be separated by comma. | |
| disableFeatures |
| Set of features to disable on the Jackson com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper. The features should be a name that matches a enum from com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.SerializationFeature, com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.DeserializationFeature, or com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.MapperFeature Multiple features can be separated by comma. | |
| allowUnmarshallType |
| If enabled then Jackson is allowed to attempt to use the CamelJacksonUnmarshalType header during the unmarshalling. This should only be enabled when desired to be used. | |
| timezone |
| If set then Jackson will use the Timezone when marshalling/unmarshalling. This option will have no effect on the others Json DataFormat, like gson, fastjson and xstream. | |
| autoDiscoverObjectMapper |
| If set to true then Jackson will lookup for an objectMapper into the registry. | |
| contentTypeHeader |
| Whether the data format should set the Content-Type header with the type from the data format. For example application/xml for data formats marshalling to XML, or application/json for data formats marshalling to JSON. | |
| schemaResolver |
| Optional schema resolver used to lookup schemas for the data in transit. | |
| autoDiscoverSchemaResolver |
| When not disabled, the SchemaResolver will be looked up into the registry. | |
| namingStrategy |
| If set then Jackson will use the the defined Property Naming Strategy.Possible values are: LOWER_CAMEL_CASE, LOWER_DOT_CASE, LOWER_CASE, KEBAB_CASE, SNAKE_CASE and UPPER_CAMEL_CASE. |
56.3. Using custom ObjectMapper
You can configure JacksonDataFormat to use a custom ObjectMapper in case you need more control of the mapping configuration.
If you setup a single ObjectMapper in the registry, then Camel will automatic lookup and use this ObjectMapper. For example if you use Spring Boot, then Spring Boot can provide a default ObjectMapper for you if you have Spring MVC enabled. And this would allow Camel to detect that there is one bean of ObjectMapper class type in the Spring Boot bean registry and then use it. When this happens you should set a INFO logging from Camel.
56.4. Using Jackson for automatic type conversion
The camel-jackson module allows integrating Jackson as a Type Converter. This works in a similar way to JAXB that integrates with Camel’s type converter.
To use this camel-jackson must be enabled, which is done by setting the following options on the CamelContext global options, as shown:
@Bean
CamelContextConfiguration contextConfiguration() {
return new CamelContextConfiguration() {
@Override
public void beforeApplicationStart(CamelContext context) {
// Enable Jackson JSON type converter.
context.getGlobalOptions().put(JacksonConstants.ENABLE_TYPE_CONVERTER, "true");
// Allow Jackson JSON to convert to pojo types also
// (by default Jackson only converts to String and other simple types)
getContext().getGlobalOptions().put(JacksonConstants.TYPE_CONVERTER_TO_POJO, "true");
}
@Override
public void afterApplicationStart(CamelContext camelContext) {
}
};
}
The camel-jackson type converter integrates with JAXB which means you can annotate POJO class with JAXB annotations that Jackson can use. You can also use Jackson’s own annotations on your POJO classes.
56.5. Spring Boot Auto-Configuration
