spring boot kafka LocalDateTime

Question

I have a basic POJO that contains a java.time.LocalDateTime:

package foo.bar.asire.api.model;

import java.time.LocalDateTime;

public class Address
{
    private Long id;
    private Integer houseNumber;
    private String address;
    private LocalDateTime created;

    public Address()
    {
        super();
    }

    public Address(Long id, Integer houseNumber, String address, LocalDateTime created)
    {
        super();
        this.id = id;
        this.houseNumber = houseNumber;
        this.address = address;
        this.created = created;
    }

    public Long getId()
    {
        return id;
    }

    public void setId(Long id)
    {
        this.id = id;
    }

    public Integer getHouseNumber()
    {
        return houseNumber;
    }

    public void setHouseNumber(Integer houseNumber)
    {
        this.houseNumber = houseNumber;
    }

    public String getAddress()
    {
        return address;
    }

    public void setAddress(String address)
    {
        this.address = address;
    }

    public LocalDateTime getCreated()
    {
        return created;
    }

    public void setCreated(LocalDateTime created)
    {
        this.created = created;
    }

    @Override
    public String toString()
    {
        return "Address [id=" + id + ", houseNumber=" + houseNumber
                + ", address=" + address + ", created=" + created + "]";
    }

//    @Override
//    public String toString()
//    {
//        return "Address [id=" + id + ", houseNumber=" + houseNumber
//                + ", address=" + address + "]";
//    }


}

If I remove the LocalDateTime object, I am able to send/receive and create Address objects using the following code from my Consumer:

package foo.bar.consumer.config;

import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;

import org.apache.kafka.clients.consumer.ConsumerConfig;
import org.apache.kafka.common.serialization.StringDeserializer;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Value;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.kafka.annotation.EnableKafka;
import org.springframework.kafka.config.ConcurrentKafkaListenerContainerFactory;
import org.springframework.kafka.core.ConsumerFactory;
import org.springframework.kafka.core.DefaultKafkaConsumerFactory;
import org.springframework.kafka.support.serializer.JsonDeserializer;

import foo.bar.asire.api.model.Address;

@Configuration
@EnableKafka
public class KafkaConsumerConfig
{
    @Value("${kafka.consumer.bootstrap}")
    private String bootstrapServers;

    @Value("${kafka.consumer.group}")
    private String group;

    @Bean
    public Map<String, Object> consumerConfigs()
    {
        Map<String, Object> props = new HashMap<>();
        props.put(ConsumerConfig.BOOTSTRAP_SERVERS_CONFIG, bootstrapServers);
        props.put(ConsumerConfig.KEY_DESERIALIZER_CLASS_CONFIG, StringDeserializer.class);
        props.put(ConsumerConfig.VALUE_DESERIALIZER_CLASS_CONFIG, JsonDeserializer.class);
        props.put(ConsumerConfig.GROUP_ID_CONFIG, group);

        return props;
    }

    @Bean
    public ConsumerFactory<String, Address> consumerFactory()
    {
        return new DefaultKafkaConsumerFactory<>(consumerConfigs(), 
                new StringDeserializer(),
                new JsonDeserializer<>(Address.class));
    }

    @Bean
    public ConcurrentKafkaListenerContainerFactory<String, Address> kafkaListenerContainerFactory()
    {
        ConcurrentKafkaListenerContainerFactory<String, Address> factory = new ConcurrentKafkaListenerContainerFactory<>();
        factory.setConsumerFactory(consumerFactory());

        return factory;
    }
}

Here is my AddressConsumer @Service:

package foo.bar.consumer.service;

import org.slf4j.Logger;
import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;
import org.springframework.kafka.annotation.KafkaListener;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;

import foo.bar.asire.api.model.Address;

@Service
public class AddressConsumer
{
    private final Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(this.getClass());

    @KafkaListener(topics = "${kafka.consumer.topic}")
    private void consumeAddress(Address address)
    {
        log.info("received address='{}'", address.toString());
    }
}

However, when I use the original Address POJO with the LocalDateTime object, I get the following exception:

org.apache.kafka.common.errors.SerializationException: Error deserializing key/value for partition asire-0 at offset 29

Here is my application.properties file for my Consumer, but my Producer is about the same:

server.port=8081

spring.jackson.serialization.write_dates_as_timestamps=false

kafka.consumer.bootstrap=localhost:9092
kafka.consumer.topic=asire
kafka.consumer.group=AsireGroup

Answer 1

Right or wrong, I was able to get this to properly do the JsonSerialization/JsonDeserialization by modifying the original Address POJO with the following changes. Added the following imports:

import com.fasterxml.jackson.datatype.jsr310.deser.LocalDateTimeDeserializer;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.datatype.jsr310.ser.LocalDateTimeSerializer;

Added the following annotations:

@JsonSerialize(using = LocalDateTimeSerializer.class)
@JsonDeserialize(using = LocalDateTimeDeserializer.class)
private LocalDateTime created;

Answer 2

您应该将数据类型模块用于那些Java 8日期时间类型： 使用Jackson JSON映射器序列化/反序列化java 8 java.time ：

objectMapper.registerModule(new JSR310Module())

Answer 3

Can not construct instance of java.time.LocalDateTime

Jackson (the json engine) can't deserialize objects that don't have a no argument constructor.

Answer 4

We had the same issue. We have the below CustomJsonSerializer class and it works fine before. Recenly we updated the springboot version and this error occurs in Kafka. Then I changed the CustomJsonSerializer and it works fine.

CustomJsonSerializer class we have before:

public class CustomJsonSerializer extends JsonSerializer {
    public CustomJsonSerializer() {
        super();
        objectMapper.configure(com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.SerializationFeature.
                WRITE_DATES_AS_TIMESTAMPS, false);
        objectMapper.setDateFormat(new StdDateFormat());
}

CustomJsonSerializer class we modified to:

public class CustomJsonSerializer extends JsonSerializer<ResultData> {

    public static final ObjectMapper objectmapper = createMapper();

    public static final ObjectMapper createMapper() {
        ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();            
        mapper.configure(SerializationFeature.WRITE_DATES_AS_TIMESTAMPS, false);
        mapper.registerModule(new JavaTimeModule());
        return mapper;
    }

    public CustomJsonSerializer() {
        super(objectmapper);
    }
}
