Basically i need group all same date data together inside JSON with date as key How can i achieve this JSON format using java

Answer 1

What kind of JSON mapper do you use? Jackson, GSON, ...?

And please provide some code. So we can see what you're doing.

If you created the JSON object using Java, you should have a Java Object structure, right?

Something like this:

class Data {
  int id;
  int age;
  LocalDate date;
  ...
}

And somewhere an Array / List of your data:

List<Data> result = new ArrayList<>();
result.add(data1);
result.add(data2);
result.add(data3);

Then you can use Java8 Stream API to group your data:

Map<LocalDate, Data> grouped = result
    .stream()
    .collect(
        Collectors.groupingBy(Data::getDate)
    );

The result will be a Map . Your result should be a List .

So you should be able to simply iterate over the Map and insert it into a new List .
