Jackson annotation Example

This project is a sample implementation of few features from jackson serialization library and jsonschema2pojo maven plugin.

• The build creates POJOs from json schemas using jsonschema2pojo maven plugin.
• If the schema specifies skipSerialize : true for a certain field, it will annotate that field with the custom @SkipSerialize annotation.
• Annotate POJO classes with Jackson's @JsonFilter annotation.
• The POJOs are exposed over HTTP as a REST endpoint using spring boot. Jackson library is used for serializing the POJOs to JSON output.
• The ObjectMapper that Jackson uses is customized to use a filter which will skip serialization of fields which are annotated with @SkipSerialize.
