Spring uses Jackson JSON from http://jackson.codehaus.org/ to serialize an object for json output. To change the default strategy to serialize/format a field in a bean, you can easily create your own serializer.
Following is an example to customize date format in json oupt
1. Creat serializer
public class CustomDateSerializer extends JsonSerializer {
public static Log logger=LogFactory.getLog(CustomDateSerializer.class);
@Override
public void serialize(Date value, JsonGenerator gen, SerializerProvider arg2) throws IOException, JsonProcessingException {
SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("MM-dd-yyyy");
String formattedDate = formatter.format(value);
gen.writeString(formattedDate);
}
}
2. Annotate bean property to use the serializer
public class TransactionHistoryBean{
private Date date;
@JsonSerialize(using = CustomDateSerializer.class)
public Date getDate() {
return date;
}
}
