The @JsonValue annotation is used to indicate that a method in a class should be used for serialization. When you apply this annotation to a method, Jackson will invoke that method to determine how the object should be represented in the JSON output.

@JacksonInject annotation is particularly valuable when you need to supply contextual data or configuration settings that are not present in the JSON being deserialized.

In this article, we’ll delve into the versatility of Jackson’s @JsonProperty annotation, which allows you to customize field names during both serialization and deserialization.

In this article, we’ll dive into an advanced Jackson annotation, @JsonIgnoreType, which allows you to exclude an entire class from being serialized when it’s used as a field within another class. Additionally, we’ll explore other techniques to prevent class serialization in Java.

In the previous articles, we explored techniques for handling unknown fields during serialization. In this article, we’ll shift our focus to exclude known fields during serialization and deserialization by using Jackson annotations.

In this article, we will explore how to handle situations when you’re deserializing JSON data into Java objects using Jackson, and the JSON contains fields that are not present in the Java class.

In the first article of our Jackson tutorial series, we learned how to convert JSON string into Java objects. In this article, we will explore the reverse process – converting Java objects, arrays, and lists into JSON strings using the ObjectMapper class.

Jackson is a widely-used library in the Java ecosystem for working with JSON data. The ObjectMapper class, a core component of Jackson, simplifies the process of converting JSON string to Java objects, object arrays and list of objects.

Java Streams provide a powerful and expressive way to process data collections in a functional style. The Stream.of() method is a fundamental part of the Java Stream API, allowing you to create streams from individual elements or arrays.
