What is the default date-time format used by this skill?

It uses the ISO-8601 offset format with a forced UTC timezone, resulting in strings like '2024-01-15T10:30:00Z'.

Can I integrate this with Spring or Guice?

Absolutely. The skill includes specific code examples for binding the configured ObjectMapper in both Spring @Configuration classes and Guice AbstractModules.

Does this skill support modern Java 8 features?

Yes, the configuration automatically registers modules for Jdk8 (supporting Optional and Streams) and JSR310 (Java Time API).

How are null values handled in the generated JSON?

The default configuration sets serialization inclusion to NON_NULL, meaning fields with null values are omitted from the resulting JSON string.

What happens if I receive a date-time string with a different timezone offset?

The custom LocalDateTimeDeserializer is designed to parse offset date-times and automatically convert them to the equivalent UTC instant.

JUDO Jackson Serialization Config

Name: JUDO Jackson Serialization Config
Author: BlackBeltTechnology

byBlackBeltTechnology

API Development

Configures standardized Jackson JSON serialization and custom LocalDateTime handling for JUDO applications.

About

This skill provides comprehensive guidance and pre-configured patterns for managing JSON serialization within the JUDO framework using Jackson. It enables developers to implement consistent ObjectMapper configurations, including automatic UTC timezone conversion for LocalDateTime, support for Java 8 types via specialized modules, and streamlined handling of null values. By centralizing serialization logic through a factory pattern, it ensures that data exchange remains robust and predictable across REST APIs, Spring services, and Guice-managed components.

Key Features
