将Jersey实体记录为JSON作为响应

Question

I'm a Jersey newbie and I need to log the JSON response. I wish to take the entity and convert it to JSON exactly as done by the Jersey framework does (same mapper, etc.). Is there a way to extract its mapper (and call, for example, its writeValueAsString)?

Answer 1

You don't specify which package you use for producing the JSON response (neither you explain much about your jersey server), but I will assume you use Jackson .

You have some tracing in Jersey, take a look here , but as fas as I know it does not do what you need.

But first of all you should implement a LoggingFilter ,

public class YourLoggingFilter implements ContainerResponseFilter {

    @Override
    public void filter(final ContainerRequestContext requestContext, final ContainerResponseContext responseContext)
            throws IOException {
        ...

    }

}

And I assume you extend the ResourceConfig class to add resources, you need to add the new filter here:

public class YourApplication extends ResourceConfig {

    public YourApplication() {
        super();

        register(YourAuthenticationRequestFilter.class, Priorities.AUTHENTICATION);
        register(YourExceptionMapper.class);
        register(YourLoggingFilter.class);

        packages("...");
    }
}

And finally, a simple way to log your response inside YourLoggingFilter would be (here I assume Jackson , but this is just an example, I don't know what logger you are using, but don't open a file every time you do a request!!!)

Object obj = responseContext.getEntity();
ObjectMapper om = new ObjectMapper();
File file = new File("...");
try {
    OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(file);
    om.writeValue(out, obj);
} catch (IOException e) {
    // this could fail but you don't want your request to fail
    e.printStackTrace();
}

Hope it helps.
