Class RawSerializer<T>

All Implemented Interfaces:
SchemaAware

public class RawSerializer<T> extends SerializerBase<T>
This is a simple dummy serializer that will just output raw values by calling toString() on value to serialize.
Since:
1.7
  • Constructor Details

    • RawSerializer

      public RawSerializer(Class<?> cls)
      Constructor takes in expected type of values; but since caller typically can not really provide actual type parameter, we will just take wild card and coerce type.
  • Method Details

    • serialize

      public void serialize(T value, JsonGenerator jgen, SerializerProvider provider) throws IOException, JsonGenerationException
      Description copied from class: JsonSerializer
      Method that can be called to ask implementation to serialize values of type this serializer handles.
      Specified by:
      serialize in class SerializerBase<T>
      Parameters:
      value - Value to serialize; can not be null.
      jgen - Generator used to output resulting Json content
      provider - Provider that can be used to get serializers for serializing Objects value contains, if any.
      Throws:
      IOException
      JsonGenerationException
    • serializeWithType

      public void serializeWithType(T value, JsonGenerator jgen, SerializerProvider provider, TypeSerializer typeSer) throws IOException, JsonProcessingException
      Description copied from class: JsonSerializer
      Method that can be called to ask implementation to serialize values of type this serializer handles, using specified type serializer for embedding necessary type information.

      Default implementation will ignore serialization of type information, and just calls JsonSerializer.serialize(T, JsonGenerator, SerializerProvider): serializers that can embed type information should override this to implement actual handling. Most common such handling is done by something like:

        // note: method to call depends on whether this type is serialized as JSON scalar, object or Array!
        typeSer.writeTypePrefixForScalar(value, jgen);
        serialize(value, jgen, provider);
        typeSer.writeTypeSuffixForScalar(value, jgen);
      
      Overrides:
      serializeWithType in class JsonSerializer<T>
      Parameters:
      value - Value to serialize; can not be null.
      jgen - Generator used to output resulting Json content
      provider - Provider that can be used to get serializers for serializing Objects value contains, if any.
      typeSer - Type serializer to use for including type information
      Throws:
      IOException
      JsonProcessingException
    • getSchema

      public JsonNode getSchema(SerializerProvider provider, Type typeHint)
      Description copied from class: SerializerBase
      Note: since Jackson 1.9, default implementation claims type is "string"
      Specified by:
      getSchema in interface SchemaAware
      Overrides:
      getSchema in class SerializerBase<T>
      Parameters:
      provider - The serializer provider.
      typeHint - A hint about the type.
      Returns:
      Json-schema for this serializer.
