杰克逊使用部分信息序列化参考

Question

Suppose I have 2 types of entity:

Owner{
  String name;
  @OneToMany
  List<Hotel> hotels;
}

Hotel{
  String name;
  String address;
  int price;
}

I want to serialize these entity as:

owner: 
{
  "name":"xxx",
  "hotels": [{"name":x, "price":1}]
}

hotel:
{
  "name":"x",
  "address": "111 yyy",
  "price": 1
}

Basically I want to only display a partial information of hotel in owner serialization, but full information in hotel serialization. Is there a way to do this beside a customized serializer of Owner?

Thanks.

You can use @JsonIgnoreProperties annotation from jackson-annotations package.

public class Owner {

    private String name;
    @JsonIgnoreProperties("address")
    private List<Hotel> hotels;
