如何将Java对象转换为JSON字符串？

下面的示例演示如何使用Jackson将Java对象转换为JSON字符串。Jackson provide ObjectMapper类提供了读写JSON数据的功能。writeValueAsString(Object)方法，用于将任何Java对象序列化为字符串。

package org.nhooo.example.jackson;

import com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonProcessingException;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper;

public class ObjectToJson {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Artist artist = new Artist();
        artist.setId(1L);
        artist.setName("The Beatles");

        ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
        try {
            String json = mapper.writeValueAsString(artist);
            System.out.println("JSON = " + json);
        } catch (JsonProcessingException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

运行上面的代码片段将打印出以下结果：

JSON = {"id":1,"name":"The Beatles"}

这是Artist类的定义。

package org.nhooo.example.jackson;

public class Artist {
    private Long id;
    private String name;

    public Artist() {
    }

    public Artist(Long id, String name) {
        this.id = id;
        this.name = name;
    }

    // Getters & Setters

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return "Artist{" +
            "id=" + id +
            ", name='" + name + '\'' +
            '}';
    }
}
