I have a DTO class and some REST services that sometimes return (among other things) a List of those DTOs.
I cannot alter that DTO, as it's used in several places of the project.
However, only for one specific REST service , I need to exclude some of the fields of that DTO object.
Basically I need to be able to apply this solution only at a certain point.
I tried applying @JsonFilter("restrictionFilter")
to my DTO class, but then I get an error if I don't use that filter with a mapper every time I marshall the object into a JSON, like this:
final String writeValueAsString = mapper.writer(
new SimpleFilterProvider()
.addFilter("restrictionFilter",
SimpleBeanPropertyFilter.filterOutAllExcept("name", "sizeInByte"))
).writeValueAsString(objectsList);
The error is Cannot resolve PropertyFilter with id 'restrictionFilter'; no FilterProvider configured...
This issue sounds like a perfect Decorator design pattern use. Create a new DTO with a constructor that gets the original DTO and create which get methods you want or ignore whatever get methods you like. For example:
public class NewDto {
OldDto oldDto;
public NewDto(OldDto oldDto){
this.oldDto = oldDto;
}
public String getName(){
return oldDto.getName();
}
}
Now you will only need to return the NewDto object, like so:
return new NewDto(oldDto)
