Package com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.node

Class BaseJsonNode

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    com.fasterxml.jackson.core.TreeNode, JsonSerializable, java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Iterable<JsonNode>
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    ContainerNode, ValueNode
    public abstract class BaseJsonNode
extends JsonNode
implements java.io.Serializable
    Abstract base class common to all standard JsonNode implementations. The main addition here is that we declare that sub-classes must implement JsonSerializable. This simplifies object mapping aspects a bit, as no external serializers are needed.

    Since 2.10, all implements have been Serializable.

      • findPath

        public final JsonNode findPath​(java.lang.String fieldName)
        Description copied from class: JsonNode
        Method similar to JsonNode.findValue(java.lang.String), but that will return a "missing node" instead of null if no field is found. Missing node is a specific kind of node for which JsonNode.isMissingNode() returns true; and all value access methods return empty or missing value.
        Specified by:
        findPath in class JsonNode
        Parameters:
        fieldName - Name of field to look for
        Returns:
        Value of first matching node found; or if not found, a "missing node" (non-null instance that has no value)

      • hashCode

        public abstract int hashCode()
        Overrides:
        hashCode in class java.lang.Object

      • required

        public JsonNode required​(java.lang.String fieldName)
        Description copied from class: JsonNode
        Method is functionally equivalent to path(fieldName).required() and can be used to check that this node is an ObjectNode (that is, represents JSON Object value) and has value for specified property with key fieldName (but note that value may be explicit JSON null value). If this node is Object Node and has value for specified property, matching value is returned; otherwise IllegalArgumentException is thrown.
        Overrides:
        required in class JsonNode
        Parameters:
        fieldName - Name of property to access
        Returns:
        Value of the specified property of this Object node

      • required

        public JsonNode required​(int index)
        Description copied from class: JsonNode
        Method is functionally equivalent to path(index).required() and can be used to check that this node is an ArrayNode (that is, represents JSON Array value) and has value for specified index (but note that value may be explicit JSON null value). If this node is Array Node and has value for specified index, value at index is returned; otherwise IllegalArgumentException is thrown.
        Overrides:
        required in class JsonNode
        Parameters:
        index - Index of the value of this Array node to access
        Returns:
        Value at specified index of this Array node

      • traverse

        public com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonParser traverse()
        Specified by:
        traverse in interface com.fasterxml.jackson.core.TreeNode

      • traverse

        public com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonParser traverse​(com.fasterxml.jackson.core.ObjectCodec codec)
        Specified by:
        traverse in interface com.fasterxml.jackson.core.TreeNode

      • asToken

        public abstract com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonToken asToken()
        Method that can be used for efficient type detection when using stream abstraction for traversing nodes. Will return the first JsonToken that equivalent stream event would produce (for most nodes there is just one token but for structured/container types multiple)
        Specified by:
        asToken in interface com.fasterxml.jackson.core.TreeNode

      • numberType

        public com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonParser.NumberType numberType()
        Returns code that identifies type of underlying numeric value, if (and only if) node is a number node.
        Specified by:
        numberType in interface com.fasterxml.jackson.core.TreeNode

      • withObject

        public ObjectNode withObject​(com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonPointer ptr,
                             JsonNode.OverwriteMode overwriteMode,
                             boolean preferIndex)
        Description copied from class: JsonNode
        Method that can be called on Object or Array nodes, to access a Object-valued node pointed to by given JsonPointer, if such a node exists: or if not, an attempt is made to create one and return it. For example, on document 
          { "a" : {
       "b" : {
          "c" : 13
       }
    }
  }
        calling method with JsonPointer of /a/b would return ObjectNode 
          { "c" : 13 }

        In cases where path leads to "missing" nodes, a path is created. So, for example, on above document, and JsonPointer of /a/x an empty ObjectNode would be returned and the document would look like: 

          { "a" : {
       "b" : {
          "c" : 13
       },
       "x" : { }
    }
  }
        Finally, if the path is incompatible with the document -- there is an existing JsonNode through which expression cannot go -- a replacement is attempted if (and only if) conversion is allowed as per overwriteMode passed in. For example, with above document and expression of /a/b/c, conversion is allowed if passing OverwriteMode.SCALARS or OvewriteMode.ALL, and resulting document would look like: 
          { "a" : {
       "b" : {
          "c" : { }
       },
       "x" : { }
    }
  }
        but if different modes (NONE or NULLS) is passed, an exception is thrown instead.
        Overrides:
        withObject in class JsonNode
        Parameters:
        ptr - Pointer that indicates path to use for ObjectNode value to return (potentially creating one as necessary)
        overwriteMode - Defines which node types may be converted in case of incompatible JsonPointer expression: if conversion not allowed, UnsupportedOperationException is thrown.
        preferIndex - When creating a path (for empty or replacement), and path contains segment that may be an array index (simple integer number like 3), whether to construct an ArrayNode (true) or ObjectNode (false). In latter case matching property with quoted number (like "3") is used within Object.
        Returns:
        ObjectNode found or created

                           boolean preferIndex)
        Description copied from class: JsonNode
        Method that can be called on Object or Array nodes, to access a Array-valued node pointed to by given JsonPointer, if such a node exists: or if not, an attempt is made to create one and return it. For example, on document 
          { "a" : {

    }
  }
        calling method with JsonPointer of /a/b would return Array 
          [ 1, 2 ]

        In cases where path leads to "missing" nodes, a path is created. So, for example, on above document, and JsonPointer of /a/x an empty ArrayNode would be returned and the document would look like: 

          { "a" : {
       "b" : [ 1, 2 ],
       "x" : [ ]
    }
  }
        Finally, if the path is incompatible with the document -- there is an existing JsonNode through which expression cannot go -- a replacement is attempted if (and only if) conversion is allowed as per overwriteMode passed in. For example, with above document and expression of /a/b/0, conversion is allowed if passing OverwriteMode.SCALARS or OvewriteMode.ALL, and resulting document would look like: 
          { "a" : {
       "b" : [ [ ], 2 ],
       "x" : [ ]
    }
  }
        but if different modes (NONE or NULLS) is passed, an exception is thrown instead.

      • toString

        public java.lang.String toString()
        Description copied from class: JsonNode
        Method that will produce (as of Jackson 2.10) valid JSON using default settings of databind, as String. If you want other kinds of JSON output (or output formatted using one of other Jackson-supported data formats) make sure to use ObjectMapper or ObjectWriter to serialize an instance, for example: 
           String json = objectMapper.writeValueAsString(rootNode);

        Note: method defined as abstract to ensure all implementation classes explicitly implement method, instead of relying on Object.toString() definition.

        Specified by:
        toString in class JsonNode

      • toPrettyString

        public java.lang.String toPrettyString()
