toObject

fun <T> String.toObject(objectType: JavaType): T

Deserializes this JSON string into an object of the specified JavaType.

Uses the pre-configured JsonSerializer to read the value.

Receiver

The JSON string to deserialize.

Return

The deserialized object.

Example:

val json = """["John","Jane"]"""
val type = JsonSerializer.typeFactory.constructCollectionType(List::class.java, String::class.java)
val list = json.toObject<List<String>>(type)

Parameters

objectType

The JavaType representing the target type.

Type Parameters

The type of object to deserialize to.

fun <T> String.toObject(objectType: Class<T>): T

Deserializes this JSON string into an object of the specified Class.

Uses the pre-configured JsonSerializer to read the value.

Receiver

The JSON string to deserialize.

Return

The deserialized object.

Example:

data class User(val name: String, val age: Int)
val json = """{"name":"John","age":30}"""
val user = json.toObject<User>(User::class.java)

Parameters

objectType

The Class representing the target type.

Type Parameters

The type of object to deserialize to.

fun <T> String.toObject(targetType: TypeReference<T>): T

fun <T> JsonNode.toObject(targetType: JavaType): T

fun <T> JsonNode.toObject(targetType: TypeReference<T>): T

fun <T> JsonNode.toObject(objectType: Class<T>): T

Converts this JsonNode into an object of the specified Class.

Uses the pre-configured JsonSerializer to convert the tree to value.

Receiver

The JsonNode to convert.

Return

The converted object.

Example:

val json = """{"name":"John","age":30}"""
val node = json.toJsonNode<ObjectNode>()
val user = node.toObject<User>(User::class.java)

Parameters

objectType

The Class representing the target type.

Type Parameters

The type of object to convert to.

inline fun <T> String.toObject(): T

Deserializes this JSON string into an object using reified generics.

Convenience method that uses the reified type parameter to avoid specifying the class explicitly.

Receiver

The JSON string to deserialize.

Return

The deserialized object.

Example:

data class User(val name: String, val age: Int)
val json = """{"name":"John","age":30}"""
val user = json.toObject<User>()

Type Parameters

The type of object to deserialize to, inferred from the call site.

inline fun <T> JsonNode.toObject(): T

Converts this JsonNode into an object using reified generics.

Convenience method that uses the reified type parameter to avoid specifying the class explicitly.

Receiver

The JsonNode to convert.

Return

The converted object.

Example:

val json = """{"name":"John","age":30}"""
val node = json.toJsonNode<ObjectNode>()
val user = node.toObject<User>()

Type Parameters

The type of object to convert to, inferred from the call site.
