Hello guys, If you are working with JSON data then you may know that JSON is collection of key value pairs and that's why many times, you also need to convert them into a Map in Java. While there are many Java libraries like Jackson and Gson which provides support of parsing JSON to Java objects, there is not much support for JSON parsing or manipulation on standard JDK. While JSON parsing is still a long overdue, starting with JDK 8u60+ the built-in Nashorn engine is capable to convert JSON content into java.util.Map. No external dependencies are required for parsing JSON in to Map as you will learn in this article.
How to convert JSON String to Java Object using Gson? JSON Deserialization Example
Hello Java Programmers, In the last article, you have learned how to convert a Java object to JSON String and in today's article, you will learn the opposite, i.e. converting a JSON String to a Java object. The first example was known as JSON serialization example and this one is known as JSON deserialization because we are creating a Java object from a String. The idea is very similar to classical Serialization in Java where you convert a Java object to another binary format that can be transported over the network or can be saved in the disk for further usage.
3 ways to convert String to JSON object in Java? Examples
It's very common nowadays to receive JSON String from a Java web service instead of XML, but unfortunately, JDK doesn't yet support conversion between JSON String to JSON object. Keeping JSON as String always is not a good option because you cannot operate on it easily, you need to convert it into a JSON object before you do anything else e.g. retrieve any field or set different values. Fortunately, there are many open-source libraries which allows you to create JSON object from JSON formatted String like Gson from Google, Jackson, and json-simple. In this tutorial, you will learn how to use these 3 main libraries to do this conversion with step-by-step examples.
How to Accept and Produce JSON as a response in Spring Boot? Example Tutorial
Hello everyone, welcome to the blog post. In this short tutorial, we are going to take an in-depth look at how to consume and produce JSON responses using a widely appreciated Java framework i.e. Spring Boot. As we all know Spring Boot is a framework designed to build a secure web application, microservice, REST API, and production-ready spring application. Modern-day application deals in a large amount of data, which they share in JSON format. A JSON is a standard plain text-based representation of structured data. It is one of the popular formats for data transmission over the internet. Due to its user-friendly syntax and lightweight, it helps in the process faster.
How to use @JsonCreator and @JsonPropertOrder Jackson JN Annotation in Java? Examples
Hello guys, if you are dealing with JSON in Java then you may have come across Jackson, one of the popular JSON library in Java. Jackson provides many cool annotations to serialize and de-serialize JSON to Java object and vice-versa. Earlier, I have showed you 3 ways to convert JSON to Java object and 10 free Jon Tools for programmers and in this article, we will deep dive into two popular Jackson annotations @JsonCreator, @JsonProperty, and @JsonProperOrder. But, Before I tach you exactly how you can use the @JsonCreator annotation, let me briefly tell you a bit more about what Java really is.
How to convert Java object to JSON String using Gson? Example Tutorial
If you are a Java or Android developer and learning JSON to support JSON format for your project and looking for a quick and simple way to convert your Java object into json format then you have come to the right place. In this article, I'll teach you how to convert a Java object to a JSON document using Google's Java library called Gson. This library allows you to convert both Java objects to JSON String and a JSON document to Java objects. So, let's first do some serialization. Serialization in the context of Gson means mapping a Java object to its JSON representation.
How to Parse JSON in Java Object using Jackson - Example Tutorial
Hello guys, if you are wondering how to parse JSON in Java then don't worry, there are many options. In the last article, I have shown you 3 ways to parse JSON in Java in this example, You will learn how to parse a JSON String to Java and how to convert Java Object to JSON format using Jackson. JSON stands for JavaScript Object notation is a subset of JavaScript object syntax, which allows all JavaScript clients to process it without using any external library. Because of its compact size, compared to XML and platform independence nature makes JSON a favorite format for transferring data via HTTP.
How to convert array to JSON in Java? Example Tutorial
Before converting an array to Json. It is good to have a good understanding of an array and what JSon is.
What then is an Array? An array is a data structure in java that holds values of the same type with its length specified right from creation time. Or you can say an array is a collection of similar type of elements which has contiguous memory location.
Oftentimes you may have to work on a task whereby you will have to store a large number of values during the execution of a program. for instance, you need to read 50 numbers, calculate their average, and find out how many numbers are above the average, and how many numbers are below average.

3 ways to ignore null fields while converting Java object to JSON using Jackson? Example
Ignoring null fields or attribute is a one of the common requirement while marshaling Java object to JSON string because Jackson just prints null when a reference filed is null, which you may not want. For example, if you have a Java object which has a String field whose value is null when you convert this object to Json, you will see null in front of that. In order to better control JSON output, you can ignore null fields, and Jackson provides a couple of options to do that. You can ignore null fields at the class level by using @JsonInclude(Include.NON_NULL) to only include non-null fields, thus excluding any attribute whose value is null.
How to Read or Parse CSV files with Header in Java using Jackson - Example Tutorial
Hello guys, today I am going to show you how to read a CSV file in Java with a simple example of Jackson API. For a long time, I only knew that Jackson can be used to parse JSON but later realized that you can also use it to parse or read CSV files in Java. The Jackson DataFormat CSV library allows you to read a CSV file in just a couple of lines and it's really powerful and feature-rich. For example, you can read a CSV file with a header or without a header. You can even read a tab-delimited text file like CSV. It's also highly configurable and allows you to define a columns separator to read a text file with any delimiter. You can even use it to directly convert the CSV data into Java objects, just like we do while reading JSON String in Java.
