Format LocalDateTime Response json

Question

I would like to format my LocalDateTime on Javalin.

I know the library uses Jackson to generate JSON and I also know how to configure it but where can I set the Jackson configuration?

I would like to format my dates in this format, "dd-MM-yyyy hh:mm:ss".

Thank you

Answer 1

In Javalin, Jackson is configurable via JavalinJackson#configure ().

In my specific case, I would do

JavalinJackson.configure(jacksonObjectMapper().findAndRegisterModules())

and then add the appropriate dependency:

compile "com.fasterxml.jackson.datatype:jackson-datatype-jsr310:2.9.8"
