I have add multiple custom Serializers and Deserializers to my ObjectMapper. How to check if serializers are registered?
#Bean
public ObjectMapper getMyObjectMapper(List<TestSerializer> serializers, List<TestDeserializer> deserializers) {
ObjectMapper objectMapper = new ObjectMapper();
SimpleModule customModule = new SimpleModule();
for (TestSerailizer h: serializers) {
customModule.addSerializer(h);
}
for (TestDeserializer d: deserializers) {
customModule.addDeserializer(Object.class, d);
}
objectMapper.registerModule(customModule);
objectMapper.registerModule(new JavaTimeModule());
objectMapper.configure(DeserializationFeature.FAIL_ON_UNKNOWN_PROPERTIES, false);
objectMapper.configure(SerializationFeature.WRITE_DATES_AS_TIMESTAMPS, false);
return objectMapper;
}
You can invoke the ObjectMapper#getRegisteredModuleIds that returns the set of Module typeIds that are registered in the ObjectMapper mapper where by default the typeId for a module is it's full class name (see Module.getTypeId()):
ObjectMapper objectMapper = new ObjectMapper();
//it will print the modules registered
System.out.println(mapper.getRegisteredModuleIds());
If you are interested to check which serializer will be used for YourClass class, you can invoke the ObjectMapper#getSerializerProviderInstance returning a SerializerProvider instance that may be used for accessing serializers with the findValueSerializer method:
//it will print your serializer if you have defined one for your class
//otherwise one of the jackson java classes used for serialization
System.out.println(mapper.getSerializerProviderInstance()
.findValueSerializer(YourClass.class));
In a webservice developed in Spring Boot framework, I am looking for a way to filter few sensitive fields in the response. I am trying with JsonFilter. Here is the code I tried so far:
#ApiModel (value = "Customer")
#JsonInclude (JsonInclude.Include.NON_NULL)
#JsonFilter("CustomerFilter")
public class Customer implements Serializable
{
...
}
Controller code that sends filtered response:
MappingJacksonValue mappingJacksonValue = new MappingJacksonValue(customer);
FilterProvider filters = new
SimpleFilterProvider().setFailOnUnknownId(false).addFilter("CustomerFilter",
SimpleBeanPropertyFilter.filterOutAllExcept("customerId"));
mappingJacksonValue.setFilters(filters);
return ResponseEntity.status(HttpStatus.OK).body(mappingJacksonValue);
While invoking the request, the following exception is thrown.
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JsonMappingException: Can not resolve PropertyFilter with id 'CustomerFilter'; no FilterProvider configured
Am I missing any configuration?
I was having the same issue this week, just resolved it now by creating a FilterConfiguration class in my config folder.
#JsonFilter("studentFilter")
public class Student {
String name;
String password;
public Student() {
this.name = "Steve";
this.password = "superSecretPassword";
}
}
#Configuration
public class FilterConfiguration {
public FilterConfiguration (ObjectMapper objectMapper) {
SimpleFilterProvider simpleFilterProvider = new SimpleFilterProvider().setFailOnUnknownId(true);
simpleFilterProvider.addFilter("studentFilter", SimpleBeanPropertyFilter.filterOutAllExcept("name"));
objectMapper.setFilterProvider(simpleFilterProvider);
}
}
When I create a new Student, the password is filtered out.
Avoid using MappingJacksonValue as it fails in object chaining and provide error like ["data"]->org.springframework.http.converter.json.MappingJacksonValue["value"]->java.util.ArrayList[0])
Note : Use ObjectMapper and ObjectWriter instead of MappingJacksonValue
Try the below code snippet
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
mapper.setSerializationInclusion(JsonInclude.Include.NON_NULL);
FilterProvider filters = new SimpleFilterProvider().setFailOnUnknownId(false).addFilter("CustomerFilter",
SimpleBeanPropertyFilter.filterOutAllExcept("customerId"));
ObjectWriter writer = mapper.writer(filters);
String writeValueAsString = writer.writeValueAsString(customer);
Customer resultCustomer = mapper.readValue(writeValueAsString, Customer.class);
return ResponseEntity.status(HttpStatus.OK).body(resultCustomer);
I have a spring MVC config with the following:
public class SpringConfiguration extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter {
public MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter jacksonMessageConverter() {
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter messageConverter = new MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter();
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
//Registering Hibernate4Module to support lazy objects
mapper.setSerializationInclusion(JsonInclude.Include.NON_NULL);
mapper.registerModule(new Hibernate4Module());
messageConverter.setObjectMapper(mapper);
return messageConverter;
}
#Override
public void configureMessageConverters(List<HttpMessageConverter<?>> converters) {
//Here we add our custom-configured HttpMessageConverter
converters.add(jacksonMessageConverter());
super.configureMessageConverters(converters);
}
}
The previous method used to ignore all lazy relation without adding JsonIgnore in model
The problem is I have a route to steam mp3 file as an octet response as following
#GetMapping(value = "/audio/{id}")
public ResponseEntity<byte[]> streamMp3FileToAdmin(#PathVariable Integer id) {
CorporateCampaign camp = corporateCampaignService.findById(id);
final HttpHeaders httpHeaders = new HttpHeaders();
httpHeaders.setContentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_OCTET_STREAM);
return new ResponseEntity<byte[]>(Utilities.getFileAsBytes(camp.getVoiceUrl()),httpHeaders,HttpStatus.OK);
}
If I remove jackson message converter the steaming works fine but when I add jackson message converter the stream doesn't work any more
I read this question Spring MVC: How to return image in #ResponseBody?
and a lot but I didn't find a solution yet
You need to add produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_OCTET_STREAM to the #GetMapping(value = "/audio/{id}") to specify produced result content type and let browser recognize it properly.
Using the curl command:
curl -u 591bf65f50057469f10b5fd9:0cf17f9b03d056ds0e11e48497e506a2 https://backend.tdk.com/api/devicetypes/59147fd79e93s12e61499ffe/messages
I am getting a JSON response:
{"data":[{"device":"18SE62","time":1494516023,"data":"3235","snr":"36.72",...
I save the response on a txt file and parse it using jackson, and everything is fine
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
File f = new File(getClass().getResource
("/result.json").getFile());
MessageList messageList = mapper.readValue(f, MessageList.class);
and I assume I should get the same result using RestTemplate but that's not the case
RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
MessageList messageList =
restTemplate.getForObject("http://592693f43c87815f9b8145e9:f099c85d84d4e325a2186c02bd0caeef#backend.tdk.com/api/devicetypes/591570373c87894b4eece34d/messages", MessageList.class);
I got an error instead
Exception in thread "main" org.springframework.web.client.RestClientException: Could not extract response: no suitable HttpMessageConverter found for response type [class com.tdk.domain.backend.MessageList] and content type [text/html;charset=iso-8859-1]

I tried to set the contentType:
HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
headers.setContentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON);
HttpEntity<String> entity = new HttpEntity<String>("parameters", headers);
MessageList messageList =
restTemplate.getForObject(url, entity, MessageList.class);
but then I got a compilation error
The method getForObject(String, Class<T>, Object...) in the type RestTemplate is not applicable for the arguments (String, HttpEntity<String>,
Class<MessageList>)
I also tried to add a the Jackson Message converter
List<HttpMessageConverter<?>> messageConverters = new ArrayList<HttpMessageConverter<?>>();
//Add the Jackson Message converter
messageConverters.add(new MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter());
//Add the message converters to the restTemplate
restTemplate.setMessageConverters(messageConverters);
MessageList messageList =
restTemplate.getForObject(url, MessageList.class);
But then I got this error:
Exception in thread "main" org.springframework.web.client.RestClientException: Could not extract response: no suitable HttpMessageConverter found for response type [class com.tdk.domain.backend.MessageList] and content type [text/html;charset=iso-8859-1]

I also tried adding the class
#Configuration
#EnableWebMvc
public class MvcConf extends WebMvcConfigurationSupport {
protected void configureMessageConverters(List<HttpMessageConverter<?>> converters) {
converters.add(converter());
addDefaultHttpMessageConverters(converters);
}
#Bean
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter converter() {
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter converter
= new MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter();
return converter;
}
}
but I got the error:
org.springframework.web.client.RestClientException: Could not extract response: no suitable HttpMessageConverter found for response type [class com.tdk.domain.backend.MessageList] and content type [text/html;charset=iso-8859-1]

at org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplate.execute(RestTemplate.java:613)
at org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplate.getForObject(RestTemplate.java:287)
The main problem here is content type [text/html;charset=iso-8859-1] received from the service, however the real content type should be application/json;charset=iso-8859-1
In order to overcome this you can introduce custom message converter. and register it for all kind of responses (i.e. ignore the response content type header). Just like this
List<HttpMessageConverter<?>> messageConverters = new ArrayList<HttpMessageConverter<?>>();
//Add the Jackson Message converter
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter converter = new MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter();
// Note: here we are making this converter to process any kind of response,
// not only application/*json, which is the default behaviour
converter.setSupportedMediaTypes(Collections.singletonList(MediaType.ALL));
messageConverters.add(converter);
restTemplate.setMessageConverters(messageConverters);
While the accepted answer solved the OP's original problem, most people finding this question through a Google search are likely having an entirely different problem which just happens to throw the same no suitable HttpMessageConverter found exception.
What happens under the covers is that MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter swallows any exceptions that occur in its canRead() method, which is supposed to auto-detect whether the payload is suitable for json decoding. The exception is replaced by a simple boolean return that basically communicates sorry, I don't know how to decode this message to the higher level APIs (RestClient). Only after all other converters' canRead() methods return false, the no suitable HttpMessageConverter found exception is thrown by the higher-level API, totally obscuring the true problem.
For people who have not found the root cause (like you and me, but not the OP), the way to troubleshoot this problem is to place a debugger breakpoint on onMappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter.canRead(), then enable a general breakpoint on any exception, and hit Continue. The next exception is the true root cause.
My specific error happened to be that one of the beans referenced an interface that was missing the proper deserialization annotations.
UPDATE FROM THE FUTURE
This has proven to be such a recurring issue across so many of my projects, that I've developed a more proactive solution. Whenever I have a need to process JSON exclusively (no XML or other formats), I now replace my RestTemplate bean with an instance of the following:
public class JsonRestTemplate extends RestTemplate {
public JsonRestTemplate(
ClientHttpRequestFactory clientHttpRequestFactory) {
super(clientHttpRequestFactory);
// Force a sensible JSON mapper.
// Customize as needed for your project's definition of "sensible":
ObjectMapper objectMapper = new ObjectMapper()
.registerModule(new Jdk8Module())
.registerModule(new JavaTimeModule())
.configure(
SerializationFeature.WRITE_DATES_AS_TIMESTAMPS, false);
List<HttpMessageConverter<?>> messageConverters = new ArrayList<>();
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter jsonMessageConverter = new MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter() {
public boolean canRead(java.lang.Class<?> clazz,
org.springframework.http.MediaType mediaType) {
return true;
}
public boolean canRead(java.lang.reflect.Type type,
java.lang.Class<?> contextClass,
org.springframework.http.MediaType mediaType) {
return true;
}
protected boolean canRead(
org.springframework.http.MediaType mediaType) {
return true;
}
};
jsonMessageConverter.setObjectMapper(objectMapper);
messageConverters.add(jsonMessageConverter);
super.setMessageConverters(messageConverters);
}
}
This customization makes the RestClient incapable of understanding anything other than JSON. The upside is that any error messages that may occur will be much more explicit about what's wrong.
I was having a very similar problem, and it turned out to be quite simple; my client wasn't including a Jackson dependency, even though the code all compiled correctly, the auto-magic converters for JSON weren't being included. See this RestTemplate-related solution.
In short, I added a Jackson dependency to my pom.xml and it just worked:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
<artifactId>jackson-databind</artifactId>
<version>2.5.1</version>
</dependency>
One way to debug this issue is to first take the response as a String.class and then use
Gson().fromJson(StringResp.body(), MyDTO.class)
It will most likely still fail, but this time it will throw the fields that caused the error in the first place. Following the modification, we can resume using the previous approach as before.
ResponseEntity<String> respStr = restTemplate.exchange(URL,HttpMethod.GET, entity, String.class);
Gson g = new Gson();
The following step will generate an error with the fields that are causing the problem.
MyDTO resp = g.fromJson(respStr.getBody(), MyDTO.class);
I don't have the error message with me, but it will point to the problematic field and explain why. Resolve those and try the previous approach again.
If the above response by #Ilya Dyoshin didn't still retrieve,
try to get the response into a String Object.
(For my self thought the error got solved by the code snippet by Ilya, the response retrieved was a failure(error) from the server.)
HttpHeaders requestHeaders = new HttpHeaders();
requestHeaders.add(HttpHeaders.CONTENT_TYPE, "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
ResponseEntity<String> st = restTemplate.exchange(url, HttpMethod.POST, httpEntity, String.class);
And Cast to the ResponseObject DTO (Json)
Gson g = new Gson();
DTO dto = g.fromJson(st.getBody(), DTO.class);
In my case #Ilya Dyoshin's solution didn't work: The mediatype "*" was not allowed.
I fix this error by adding a new converter to the restTemplate this way during initialization of the MockRestServiceServer:
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter mappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter =
new MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter();
mappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter.setSupportedMediaTypes(
Arrays.asList(
MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON,
MediaType.APPLICATION_OCTET_STREAM));
restTemplate.getMessageConverters().add(mappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter);
mockServer = MockRestServiceServer.createServer(restTemplate);
(Based on the solution proposed by Yashwant Chavan on the blog named technicalkeeda)

You need to create your own converter and implement it before making a GET request.
RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
List<HttpMessageConverter<?>> messageConverters = new ArrayList<HttpMessageConverter<?>>();
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter converter = new MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter();
converter.setSupportedMediaTypes(Collections.singletonList(MediaType.ALL));
messageConverters.add(converter);
restTemplate.setMessageConverters(messageConverters);
This way you can get the object response using resttemplate and set contentType using MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON
public List<Employee> getListofEmployee()
{
HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
headers.setAccept(Arrays.asList(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON));
HttpEntity<String> entity = new HttpEntity<String>(headers);
ResponseEntity<List<Employee>> response = restTemplate.exchange("http://hello-server/rest/employees",
HttpMethod.GET,entity, new ParameterizedTypeReference<List<Employee>>() {});
return response.getBody(); //this returns List of Employee
}
Please add the shared dependency having jackson databind package . Hope this will clear the issue.
<dependency>
<groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
<artifactId>jackson-databind</artifactId>
<version>2.12.1</version>
</dependency>
In my case it was caused by the absence of the jackson-core, jackson-annotations and jackson-databind jars from the runtime classpath.
It did not complain with the usual ClassNothFoundException as one would expect but rather with the error mentioned in the original question.
Spring sets the default content-type to octet-stream when the response is missing that field. All you need to do is to add a message converter to fix this.
Other possible solution : I tried to map the result of a restTemplate.getForObject with a private class instance (defined inside of my working class). It did not work, but if I define the object to public, inside its own file, it worked correctly.
I was trying to use Feign, while I encounter same issue, As I understood HTTP message converter will help but wanted to understand how to achieve this.
#FeignClient(name = "mobilesearch", url = "${mobile.search.uri}" ,
fallbackFactory = MobileSearchFallbackFactory.class,
configuration = MobileSearchFeignConfig.class)
public interface MobileSearchClient {
#RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET)
List<MobileSearchResponse> getPhones();
}
You have to use Customer Configuration for the decoder, MobileSearchFeignConfig,
public class MobileSearchFeignConfig {
#Bean
Logger.Level feignLoggerLevel() {
return Logger.Level.FULL;
}
#Bean
public Decoder feignDecoder() {
return new ResponseEntityDecoder(new SpringDecoder(feignHttpMessageConverter()));
}
public ObjectFactory<HttpMessageConverters> feignHttpMessageConverter() {
final HttpMessageConverters httpMessageConverters = new HttpMessageConverters(new MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter());
return new ObjectFactory<HttpMessageConverters>() {
#Override
public HttpMessageConverters getObject() throws BeansException {
return httpMessageConverters;
}
};
}
public class MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter extends org.springframework.http.converter.json.MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter {
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter() {
List<MediaType> mediaTypes = new ArrayList<>();
mediaTypes.add(MediaType.valueOf(MediaType.TEXT_HTML_VALUE + ";charset=UTF-8"));
setSupportedMediaTypes(mediaTypes);
}
}
}
In my case i was missing the No Args contructor
#Data
#AllArgsConstructor
#NoArgsConstructor
for those who are no using Lombok do add no args constructor in the mapping pojo
public ClassA() {
super();
// TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
}
also dont forget to add the Bean of Restemplate in main file if you are using the same
Infuriating problem right?
You just wanna get the result of the call, and you have a deSerialization error...that you have no clue where to look for.
Well, all is not lost.
If you change the type of call to String, you can get the JSON equivalent and then write a test to see why it is not serializing:
RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
String messageListString = restTemplate.getForObject("http://592693f43c87815f9b8145e9:f099c85d84d4e325a2186c02bd0caeef#backend.tdk.com/api/devicetypes/591570373c87894b4eece34d/messages", String.class);
Here is an example with an input param I used in my Kotlin project:
fun givenCUT_whenFetchingBillableItemsForAPastMonthWithoutBillingData_thenWeSucceedInGettingAnEmptyXmlResponse() {
val restTemplate = RestTemplate()
val uri = "http://localhost:$port/api/test/billing/xml/month/{month}/"
val params: MutableMap<String, String> = HashMap()
params["month"] = "2022-09-01"
val stringResponse = restTemplate.getForObject(uri, String::class.java, params)
assertNotNull(stringResponse)
assertEquals("<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\" standalone=\"yes\"?>\n" +
"<bi:billableItems xmlns:bi=\"urn:blahblahblah\"/>\n", stringResponse)
}
If you step through that test, and harvest the actual JSON of your endpoint, you can then use a test like this, to pump it in, and see why Jackson or Gson is complains:
#Test
fun givenCUT_whenDeSerializingBEStateCorrectionsResponse_thenWeGetAnInstanceOfAListOfBillingOrdersSuccessfully() {
//Raw JSON harvested from BillingOrderControllerTest
val harvestedFEJsonBillingOrderList = "YOUR JSON Harvested from above goes here"
val mapper = ObjectMapper()
mapper.registerModule(JavaTimeModule())
mapper.disable(SerializationFeature.WRITE_DATES_AS_TIMESTAMPS)
val deSerBillingOrderList = mapper.readValue(harvestedFEJsonBillingOrderList, Array<BillingOrder>::class.java)
assertNotNull(deSerBillingOrderList)
assertEquals(1, deSerBillingOrderList.size)
}
The post is just as easy...the following is a snippet but you can see I finally gave up and commented out the serialization error part, and reverted to the String version and did the necessary with the test above in Jackson; I just this minute did that, and found 4 issues in the de-serialized JSON that Jackson explicitly reported on, and that I will fix. Then, I will revert the below to the typed version and it should have solved the problem:
try {
val result = restTemplate!!.postForEntity(uri, billingOrders, String::class.java)
/* val result = restTemplate!!.postForObject(
baseUrl,
billingOrders,
ResponseEntity<List<BillingOrder>>::class.java)*/
assertNotNull(result)
} catch (e: Exception) {
log.error("Failed restTemplate.postForObject with $e")
}
Using Spring Boot 1.1.6.RELEASE I cannot get JSON to pretty print from my MVC controllers - something that should have taken less than a minute (and that we've configured countless times in previous Spring projects) has taken a number of hours.
I've tried various things including:
1) Using the documented auto-configuration in application.properties
http.mappers.jsonPrettyPrint=true
Has no effect
2) Creating my own Jackson instance
#Bean
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter jacksonMessageConverter() {
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter mc = ...
mc.setPrettyPrint(**true**);
return mc;
}
Has no effect
3) Injecting the containers ObjectMapper and configuring it
#Inject ObjectMapper objectMapper;
objectMapper.enable(SerializationFeature.INDENT_OUTPUT);
and
objectMapper.withDefaultPrettyPrinter();
Both have no effect
4) Turning off Spring Actuator (in case it was overwriting configuration)
Has no effect
5) Checked, double checked, triple checked I'm calling the right host, shut down to confirm connection refused, changed output to confirm code is the code I'm running
Still no way to configure JSON Pretty printing - has anyone seen this, could it be related to a side effect in Spring IO (1.0.2.RELEASE) or Jackson (fasterxml jackson-core 2.3.4)?
Did you try it like this:
#Configuration
public class TimesheetMvcConfig extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter {
#Override
public void configureMessageConverters(List<HttpMessageConverter<?>> converters) {
StringHttpMessageConverter stringConverter = new StringHttpMessageConverter();
stringConverter.setWriteAcceptCharset(false);
converters.add(stringConverter);
converters.add(new ByteArrayHttpMessageConverter());
converters.add(new ResourceHttpMessageConverter());
converters.add(new SourceHttpMessageConverter<Source>());
converters.add(new AllEncompassingFormHttpMessageConverter());
converters.add(jackson2Converter());
}
#Bean
public MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter jackson2Converter() {
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter converter = new MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter();
converter.setObjectMapper(objectMapper());
return converter;
}
#Bean
public ObjectMapper objectMapper() {
ObjectMapper objectMapper = new ObjectMapper();
objectMapper.enable(SerializationFeature.INDENT_OUTPUT);
return objectMapper;
}
}
