jackson改变json值,如何使用Jackson递归修改JsonNode的值

Requirements:

I want to apply some functions on the inner values of the JsonNode. The functions can be different eg:- lowercasing some values or appending something to the values or replace the values with something. How can I achieve that using Jackson library? Note that the structure of the JSON data can be different which means I want to build a generic system which will accept some path expression which will basically decide where to change. I want to use functional programming style, so that I can pass these functions as arguments.

eg:

input:

{

"name": "xyz",

"values": [

{

"id": "xyz1",

"sal": "1234",

"addresses": [

{

"id": "add1",

"name": "ABCD",

"dist": "123"

},

{

"id": "add2",

"name": "abcd3",

"dist": "345"

}

]

},

{

"id": "xyz2",

"sal": "3456",

"addresses": [

{

"id": "add1",

"name": "abcd",

"dist": "123"

},

{

"id": "add2",

"name": "XXXXX",

"dist": "345"

}

]

}

]

}

In this case I have to two functions basically, lowercase() and convert_to_number(). I want to apply lowercase() function on all the "name" attribute inside all the "addresses" of each "value".

same goes for convert_to_number() , but for all the "dist" attribute.

So, basically the JSON expressions will be something like below for the functions:

lowercase() : /values/*/addresses/*/name

convert_to_number() : /values/*/addresses/*/dist

output:

{

"name": "xyz",

"values": [

{

"id": "xyz1",

"sal": "1234",

"addresses": [

{

"id": "add1",

"name": "abcd",

"dist": 123

},

{

"id": "add2",

"name": "abcd3",

"dist": 345

}

]

},

{

"id": "xyz2",

"sal": "3456",

"addresses": [

{

"id": "add1",

"name": "abcd",

"dist": 123

},

{

"id": "add2",

"name": "xxxx",

"dist": 345

}

]

}

]

}

Client code:

JsonNode jsonNode = ...

applyFunctionsRecursivelyBasedOnExpr(JsonNode jsonNode, String expr, Function )

解决方案

As @MichalZiober in his answer already pointed out,

JsonPath offers a much more powerful API than Jackson,

when you need to do JSON-path-based operations.

Using methods JsonPath.parse and DocumentContext.map

you can solve your problem in just a few lines:

import java.io.File;

import com.jayway.jsonpath.Configuration;

import com.jayway.jsonpath.DocumentContext;

import com.jayway.jsonpath.JsonPath;

public class Main {

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

File file = new File("input.json");

DocumentContext context = JsonPath.parse(file);

context.map("$.values[*].addresses[*].name", Main::lowerCase);

context.map("$.values[*].addresses[*].dist", Main::convertToNumber);

String json = context.jsonString();

System.out.println(json);

}

private static Object lowerCase(Object currentValue, Configuration configuration) {

if (currentValue instanceof String)

return ((String)currentValue).toLowerCase();

return currentValue;

}

private static Object convertToNumber(Object currentValue, Configuration configuration) {

if (currentValue instanceof String)

return Integer.valueOf((String)currentValue);

return currentValue;

}

}
