Deserializing Multiple LocalDateTime formats in SpringBoot - json

Question

I have created a custom annotation that can handle the deserialization of multiple date formats using #JsonDeserialize(using = CustomDateTimeDeser.class)
#JacksonAnnotationsInside
#Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
#JsonFormat(shape = JsonFormat.Shape.STRING, pattern = "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss", timezone = "America/New_York")
#JsonDeserialize(using = CustomDateTimeDeser.class)
public #interface CustomDateTimeFormat {}
class CustomDateTimeDeser extends JsonDeserializer<LocalDateTime> {
#Override
public LocalDateTime deserialize(JsonParser jsonParser, DeserializationContext deserializationContext) throws IOException {
String[] dateFormats = {"MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm", "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss"};
for (String dateFormat : dateFormats) {
try {
DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern(dateFormat).withZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("America/New_York").toZoneId());
LocalDateTimeDeserializer localDateTimeDeserializer = new LocalDateTimeDeserializer(formatter);
return localDateTimeDeserializer.deserialize(jsonParser, deserializationContext);
} catch (Exception e) {
// DO NOTHING
}
}
throw new JsonParseException(jsonParser, "Unable to parse date: [" + jsonParser.getValueAsString() + "]. Supported formats: " + Arrays.toString(dateFormats));
}
}
This works as expected on the simple type (LocalDateTime) but doesn't work with Collection/Map of LocalDateTime.
Changing using to contentUsing will support Collection/Map but won´t support simple type #JsonDeserialize(contentUsing = CustomDateTimeDeser.class)
To solve this problem, I implemented SimpleModule bean which does get registered to ObjectMapper during the application start-up process. However, I still end up getting the following error:
org.springframework.http.converter.HttpMessageNotReadableException: JSON parse error: Cannot deserialize value of type `java.time.LocalDateTime` from String "10/05/2021 10:38": Failed to deserialize java.time.LocalDateTime: (java.time.format.DateTimeParseException) Text '10/05/2021 10:38' could not be parsed at index 0; nested exception is com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.exc.InvalidFormatException: Cannot deserialize value of type `java.time.LocalDateTime` from String "10/05/2021 10:38": Failed to deserialize java.time.LocalDateTime: (java.time.format.DateTimeParseException) Text '10/05/2021 10:38' could not be parsed at index 0

So I figured JavaTimeModule get priority over custom module. I tried to override objectmapper with my custom module. However, I still end up getting same error.
#Bean
#Primary
public ObjectMapper objectMapper() {
SimpleModule module = new SimpleModule();
CustomDateTimeDeser customDateTimeDeser = new CustomDateTimeDeser();
module.addDeserializer(LocalDateTime.class, customDateTimeDeser);
return Jackson2ObjectMapperBuilder.json().modules(module)
.featuresToDisable(SerializationFeature.WRITE_DATES_AS_TIMESTAMPS).build();
}
I am trying to support deserialization of LocalDateTime (multiple formats) whether it be in Collection/Map or simple type at application level via annotation or global config.
LocatDateTime ldt;
List<LocalDateTime> list;
Set<LocalDateTime> set;
Map<String, LocalDateTime> map;
All should be supported using single annotation or global config.
Any suggestion on how I can resolve this issue would help a lot.
Thank you!

Answer 1

If you are using Java 8, you can make use of the jackson-datatype-jsr310 module. Add the dependency to pom.xml:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.datatype</groupId>
<artifactId>jackson-datatype-jsr310</artifactId>
<version>2.13.0</version>
</dependency>
Then all you need to do is register the JavaTimeModule and disable WRITE_DATES_AS_TIMESTAMPS feature:
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
mapper.registerModule(new JavaTimeModule());
mapper.disable(SerializationFeature.WRITE_DATES_AS_TIMESTAMPS);
