Could not serialize the execution context for LOCALDATE

When I call and use it in the service, it gives the following error. I tried many things but couldn't figure it out.

Entity class

@Entity
public class User{
@Column(name = "FIRSTDATE")
@Temporal(TemporalType.DATE)
private Date firstDate;
}

Dto class

@Data
public class UserDto {
   private LocalDate firstDate;
}

dto Mapper class

UserDto dto = new UserDto();
dto.setFirstDate(DateUtil.convertToLocalDate(entity.getFirstDate()));

convertToLocalDate method

public static LocalDate convertToLocalDate(Date dateToConvert) {
        return dateToConvert == null ? null : Instant.ofEpochMilli(dateToConvert.getTime()).atZone(ZoneId.systemDefault()).toLocalDate();
    }

When I call and use it in the service, it gives the following error. I tried many things but couldn't figure it out.

firstDate value:

2023-05-15

I added this dependeny com.fasterxml.jackson.datatype:jackson-datatype-jsr310. I couldn't solve the problem. How can I fix this problem?

Solution

  • With Spring Batch 4.3, you need to add the jackson-datatype-jsr310 dependency and configure an object mapper with the JavaTimeModule() in the Jackson2ExecutionContextStringSerializer.

    Support for the Java Date and Time API types will be added in version 5.1, see https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-batch/issues/3952.
