i need help parsing a response with the jackson mapper to a POJO. i have this as a response:
"data": [{
"item": {
"downloaded": false,
"moderated": false,
"add": false
}
},
{
"item": {
"downloaded": false,
"moderated": false,
"add": false }
// more
so how do i bind this one with the mapper to a POJO? here is my class that i am trying but it returns that "item" is not recognized and not allowed to be ignored.
public ArrayList<Item> data = new ArrayList<Item>();
where item is a public static class Item with constructors and all the fields above with getters and setters.
how do i do this. i cant seem to find anywhere how to read data from an array this way.
Your example is missing couple of pieces (esp. definition of Item), to know if your structure is compatible; but in general JSON and Object structures need to match. So, you would at least need something like:
public class DataWrapper {
public List<Item> data; // or if you prefer, setters+getters
}
and if so, you would bind with:
DataWrapper wrapper = mapper.readValue(json, DataWrapper.class);
and access data as
List<Item> items = wrapper.data;
