No values displayed when NodeEntity object is converted to JSON with Jackson

[ramirezag]

Hi Guys,

I've been searching for days but only found this thread -> http://forum.springsource.org/showth...N-with-Jackson w/c didn't helped me at all.

The issue is that, no values displayed when nodeentity from db is converted to json. Please see the attached project.

ramirezag,

I made a couple of changes to your pom, and `mvn clean test` is successful:

        <repository>
            <id>neo</id>
            <name>neo</name>
            <url>http://m2.neo4j.org</url>
        </repository>
...
        <neo4j.version>1.8.RC1</neo4j.version>
        <spring.data.neo4j.version>2.1.0.RC4</spring.data.neo4j.version>

Not sure what the problem was, but if we do not see it again that fine

Regards,

Lasse

Thanks for these changes and sorry for the confusion. The issue is that, if you get User object

User result1 = userService.findByUid(user1.getUid());

then deserialize result1 object

mapper.writerWithDefaultPrettyPrinter().writeValueAsString(user)

username, password, email properties have no value.

I uploaded the revised project here -> http://github.com/ramirezag/sdn-jack...on-problem.git. UserServiceImplTest will now fail in that project.

Thanks

Hi Guys,

Can someone help me on this? I'm really clueless why domains fetched from db have problems when converted to json. If I simply instantiate a domain or object and then set the object's properties then convert it to json, I could see values of the properties.

Hi,

in the aspectj mapping mode your field access (within your class) is intercepted to be dynamically redirected to the neo4j store. So if anyone accesses the fields with reflection they won't contain any values. Try to serialize the bean getters instead.

Can you try to use these Json annotations :

@JsonAutoDetect(fieldVisibility = JsonAutoDetect.Visibility.NONE, getterVisibility = JsonAutoDetect.Visibility.PUBLIC_ONLY)
@JsonIgnoreProperties(value = {"persistentState","entityState","template","nodeId"})

Wohooo. It worked. Thank you so much Michael
