I need to create a JSON response with some dynamic fields in java. Here is an example of the JSON response I want to return :
{
"success": true,
"completed_at": 1400515821,
"<uuid>": {
type: "my_type",
...
},
"<uuid>": {
type: "my_type",
...
}
}
The "success" and the "completed_at" fields are easy to format. How can I format the fields? What would be the corresponding java object?
Basically I want to work with 2 java objects :
public class ApiResponseDTO {
private boolean success;
private DateTime completedAt;
...
}
and
public class AuthenticateResponseDTO extends ApiResponseDTO {
public List<ApplianceResponseDTO> uuids = new ArrayList<ApplianceResponseDTO>();
}
These java objects don't correspond to the expected JSON format. It would work if I could change the JSON format to have a list, but I can't change it.
Thanks a lot!
You can massage your data into JSON form using the javax.json library, specifically the JsonObjectBuilder and the JsonArrayBuilder . You'll probably want to nest a few levels of a toJson() method which will either give you the string representation you're looking for, or the JsonObject/JsonArray you desire. Something like this:
JsonArray value = null;
JsonArrayBuilder builder = Json.createArrayBuilder();
for (ApplianceResponseDTO apr : uuids) {
builder.add(apr.toJson());
}
value = builder.build();
return value;
