JSON Java 8 LocalDateTime format in Spring Boot

Question

I m having a small problem with formatting a Java 8 LocalDateTime in my Spring Boot Application  With  normal  dates I have no problem  but the LocalDateTime fields are converted to the following    startDate           year    2010       month     JANUARY        dayOfMonth    1       dayOfWeek     FRIDAY        dayOfYear    1       monthValue    1       hour    2       minute    2       second    0       nano    0       chronology             id     ISO          calendarType     iso8601              While I would like convert it to something like    startDate    2015-01-01    My code looks like this    JsonFormat pattern  yyyy-MM-dd    DateTimeFormat iso   DateTimeFormat ISO TIME  public LocalDateTime getStartDate         return startDate      But either of the above annotations don t work  the date keeps getting formatted like above  Suggestions welcome

I am using Spring Boot 2 1 8  I have imported    lt dependency gt       lt groupId gt org springframework boot lt  groupId gt       lt artifactId gt spring-boot-starter-json lt  artifactId gt   lt  dependency gt    which includes the jackson-datatype-jsr310   Then  I had to add these annotations   JsonSerialize using   LocalDateTimeSerializer class   JsonFormat pattern    yyyy-MM-dd HH mm ss    JsonProperty  date   LocalDateTime getDate      and it works  The JSON looks like this    date    2020-03-09 17 55 00

I am using Springboot 2 0 6 and for some reason  the app yml changes did not work  And also I had more requirements   I tried creating ObjectMapper and marking it as Primary but spring boot complained that I already have jacksonObjectMapper as marked Primary    So this is what I did  I made changes to the internal mapper   My Serializer and Deserializer are special - they deal with  dd MM YYYY   and while de-serializing - it tries its best to use 3-4 popular format to make sure I have some LocalDate    Autowired ObjectMapper mapper    PostConstruct public ObjectMapper configureMapper         mapper setSerializationInclusion JsonInclude Include NON NULL       mapper enable DeserializationFeature ACCEPT EMPTY STRING AS NULL OBJECT        mapper configure DeserializationFeature FAIL ON UNKNOWN PROPERTIES  false       mapper configure SerializationFeature ORDER MAP ENTRIES BY KEYS  true        mapper configure MapperFeature ALLOW COERCION OF SCALARS  true       mapper configure MapperFeature SORT PROPERTIES ALPHABETICALLY  true        SimpleModule module   new SimpleModule        module addDeserializer LocalDate class  new LocalDateDeserializer         module addSerializer LocalDate class  new LocalDateSerializer         mapper registerModule module        return mapper

This work fine   Add the dependency    lt dependency gt       lt groupId gt com fasterxml jackson datatype lt  groupId gt       lt artifactId gt jackson-datatype-jdk8 lt  artifactId gt   lt  dependency gt    Add the annotation    JsonFormat pattern  yyyy-MM-dd     Now  you must get the correct format   To use object mapper  you need register the JavaTime  ObjectMapper mapper   new ObjectMapper    mapper registerModule new JavaTimeModule

As already mentioned  spring-boot will fetch all you need  for both web and webflux starter    But what s even better - you don t need to register any modules yourself  Take a look here  Since  SpringBootApplication uses  EnableAutoConfiguration under the hood  it means JacksonAutoConfiguration will be added to the context automatically  Now  if you look inside JacksonAutoConfiguration  you will see       private void configureModules Jackson2ObjectMapperBuilder builder            Collection lt Module gt  moduleBeans   getBeans this applicationContext                  Module class           builder modulesToInstall moduleBeans toArray new Module 0             This fella will be called in the process of initialization and will fetch all the modules it can find in the classpath   I use Spring Boot 2 1

I found another solution which you can convert it to whatever format you want and apply to all LocalDateTime datatype and you do not have to specify  JsonFormat above every LocalDateTime datatype  first add the dependency      lt dependency gt       lt groupId gt com fasterxml jackson datatype lt  groupId gt       lt artifactId gt jackson-datatype-jsr310 lt  artifactId gt   lt  dependency gt    Add the following bean      Configuration public class Java8DateTimeConfiguration                  Customizing        http   docs spring io spring-boot docs current reference html howto-spring-mvc html               Defining a  Bean of type Jackson2ObjectMapperBuilder will allow you to customize both default ObjectMapper and XmlMapper  used in MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter and MappingJackson2XmlHttpMessageConverter respectively                Bean     public Module jsonMapperJava8DateTimeModule             val bean   new SimpleModule             bean addDeserializer  ZonedDateTime class  new JsonDeserializer lt ZonedDateTime gt                   Override             public ZonedDateTime deserialize JsonParser jsonParser  DeserializationContext deserializationContext  throws IOException  JsonProcessingException                   return ZonedDateTime parse jsonParser getValueAsString    DateTimeFormatter ISO ZONED DATE TIME                                      bean addDeserializer LocalDateTime class  new JsonDeserializer lt LocalDateTime gt                   Override             public LocalDateTime deserialize JsonParser jsonParser  DeserializationContext deserializationContext  throws IOException  JsonProcessingException                   return LocalDateTime parse jsonParser getValueAsString    DateTimeFormatter ISO LOCAL DATE TIME                                      bean addSerializer ZonedDateTime class  new JsonSerializer lt ZonedDateTime gt                   Override             public void serialize                      ZonedDateTime zonedDateTime  JsonGenerator jsonGenerator  SerializerProvider serializerProvider                      throws IOException                   jsonGenerator writeString DateTimeFormatter ISO ZONED DATE TIME format zonedDateTime                                       bean addSerializer LocalDateTime class  new JsonSerializer lt LocalDateTime gt                   Override             public void serialize                      LocalDateTime localDateTime  JsonGenerator jsonGenerator  SerializerProvider serializerProvider                      throws IOException                   jsonGenerator writeString DateTimeFormatter ISO LOCAL DATE TIME format localDateTime                                       return bean            in your config file add the following      Import Java8DateTimeConfiguration class    This will serialize and de-serialize all properties LocalDateTime and ZonedDateTime as long as you are using objectMapper created by spring   The format that you got for ZonedDateTime is    2017-12-27T08 55 17 317 02 00 Asia Jerusalem   for LocalDateTime is    2017-12-27T09 05 30 523

JsonDeserialize using  LocalDateDeserializer class  does not work for me with the below dependency    lt dependency gt       lt groupId gt com fasterxml jackson datatype lt  groupId gt       lt artifactId gt jackson-datatype-jsr310 lt  artifactId gt       lt version gt  2 9 6 lt  version gt   lt  dependency gt    I have used the below code converter to deserialize the date into a java sql Date   import javax persistence AttributeConverter  import javax persistence Converter     SuppressWarnings  UnusedDeclaration    Converter autoApply   true  public class LocalDateConverter implements AttributeConverter lt java time LocalDate  java sql Date gt           Override     public java sql Date convertToDatabaseColumn java time LocalDate attribute             return attribute    null   null   java sql Date valueOf attribute               Override     public java time LocalDate convertToEntityAttribute java sql Date dbData             return dbData    null   null   dbData toLocalDate

I added the com fasterxml jackson datatype jackson-datatype-jsr310 2 6 1 dependency and started to get the date in the following format   quot birthDate quot         2016      1      25      21      34      55      which is not what I wanted but I was getting closer  I then added the following spring jackson serialization write dates as timestamps false  to application properties file which gave me the correct format that I needed   quot birthDate quot    quot 2016-01-25T21 34 55 quot

Here it is in maven  with the property so you can survive between spring boot upgrades   lt dependency gt           lt groupId gt com fasterxml jackson datatype lt  groupId gt           lt artifactId gt jackson-datatype-jsr310 lt  artifactId gt           lt version gt   jackson version  lt  version gt   lt  dependency gt

I finally found here how to do it  To fix it  I needed another dependency  compile  quot com fasterxml jackson datatype jackson-datatype-jsr310 2 4 0 quot    By including this dependency  Spring will automatically register a converter for it  as described here  After that  you need to add the following to application properties  spring jackson serialization write dates as timestamps false  This will ensure that a correct converter is used  and dates will be printed in the format of 2016-03-16T13 56 39 492 Annotations are only needed in case you want to change the date format
