Jackson with Spring Boot and Hibernate - Create an object from an identifier using @JsonIdentityInfo

I am using Spring with Hibernate. The following is my notice.

Notice.java

package com.college.model; import java.util.Date; import java.util.Set; import javax.persistence.Column; import javax.persistence.Entity; import javax.persistence.EntityListeners; import javax.persistence.FetchType; import javax.persistence.GeneratedValue; import javax.persistence.GenerationType; import javax.persistence.Id; import javax.persistence.JoinColumn; import javax.persistence.ManyToOne; import javax.persistence.OneToMany; import javax.persistence.Temporal; import javax.persistence.TemporalType; import org.springframework.data.annotation.CreatedBy; import org.springframework.data.annotation.CreatedDate; import org.springframework.data.annotation.LastModifiedBy; import org.springframework.data.annotation.LastModifiedDate; import org.springframework.data.jpa.domain.support.AuditingEntityListener; import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonIdentityInfo; import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonIdentityReference; import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.ObjectIdGenerators; @Entity @EntityListeners(AuditingEntityListener.class) @JsonIdentityInfo(generator=ObjectIdGenerators.PropertyGenerator.class, property="id") public class Notice { @Id @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO) private Long id; @CreatedDate @Column(name="DATE_CREATED") @Temporal(TemporalType.TIMESTAMP) private Date createdDate; @LastModifiedDate @Column(name="LAST_UPDATED") @Temporal(TemporalType.TIMESTAMP) private Date lastModifiedDate; @CreatedBy @ManyToOne(fetch = FetchType.LAZY) @JoinColumn(name="CREATED_BY") private User createdBy; @LastModifiedBy @ManyToOne(fetch = FetchType.LAZY) @JoinColumn(name="LAST_MODIFIED_BY") private User lastModifiedBy; private String title; private String description; @ManyToOne @JoinColumn(name = "DEPT_ID") private Department department; public Long getId() { return id; } public void setId(Long id) { this.id = id; } public Date getCreatedDate() { return createdDate; } public void setCreatedDate(Date createdDate) { this.createdDate = createdDate; } public Date getLastModifiedDate() { return lastModifiedDate; } public void setLastModifiedDate(Date lastModifiedDate) { this.lastModifiedDate = lastModifiedDate; } public User getCreatedBy() { return createdBy; } public void setCreatedBy(User createdBy) { this.createdBy = createdBy; } public User getLastModifiedBy() { return lastModifiedBy; } public void setLastModifiedBy(User lastModifiedBy) { this.lastModifiedBy = lastModifiedBy; } public String getTitle() { return title; } public void setTitle(String title) { this.title = title; } public String getDescription() { return description; } public void setDescription(String description) { this.description = description; } public Department getDepartment() { return department; } public void setDepartment(Department department) { this.department = department; } } 

And you can see, the notice refers to the department with ManyToOne relationships. When I try to evade the answer, write json, it gives the following exception:

An exception:

JSON is published as follows:

JSON:

 { "department": 1, "description": "<p>Test Desc</p>↵", "title": "Test" } 

Shouldn't this work and create a department from the provided Id?

From this stack process question , I realized that with @JsonIdentityReference I should be able to achieve this. But again, in the setter method with id as a parameter, we need the JPA repository to be automatically extracted from the database from the database. And in the @entity class this will create a problem.

Please share if someone is faced with a similar situation.

Decision:

Inject com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.ObjectIdResolver and set as a recognizer on your object:

 @JsonIdentityInfo(generator = ObjectIdGenerators.PropertyGenerator.class, property = "id", resolver = UserIdResolver.class)
