I need to download a json parser so I go to the jackson.codehaus.org website. Instead of a convenient link to click and download the jar/jars, they have me going in circles. Does anyone know where the jars are -- exactly?

  • Try clicking "Download" at the right side of the page. – Joachim Isaksson Sep 21 '12 at 23:15

    I did that. But then when I clicked on `2.0` it took me to http://wiki.fasterxml.com/JacksonRelease20. Then from there to github. Is there an easier way? – kasavbere Sep 21 '12 at 23:29

    Click "Download", scroll down to "Downloads, 2.x" and click "Core". Direct download. – Joachim Isaksson Sep 21 '12 at 23:33
  • @Joachim Isaksson. I see. Thanks. I don't think I can mark your comment as accepted. Will you please post it as a response somehow? Otherwise this will remain an open questions. – kasavbere Sep 21 '12 at 23:39

    This site is just crazy, in circles is so irritating. – Siddharth Jun 13 '13 at 07:12

    The website is awful. It's like a never ending browsing! – STiGMa Dec 02 '14 at 15:42
  • Could not find the download link (Master.zip doesn't contain a JAR)! only the direct link from here worked! – Ben Apr 01 '15 at 14:16

    I can't believe their website makes it so hard to find the jar files. Here is where I finally found it http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/fasterxml/jackson/core/jackson-core/ – Stephane Apr 23 '15 at 18:02

    I needed the 3 jars: code, databind and annotations – Stephane Apr 23 '15 at 18:14
  • Turns out the hardest bit of making a REST API call in Java and deserialising the result to objects is finding the link to the JAR files for Jackson. – Alan Macdonald Apr 29 '16 at 12:51
  • Why dont they just provide an option for one single combined jar, for cases when we do not want to bother with maven and complicated structures, but just a simple proof of concept. Highly irritating! – RuntimeException Jun 13 '16 at 11:43

You can use this link instead :

DOWNLOAD v2.9.7

More General Link

Or goto http://mvnrepository.com/ and search for 'jackson-core' .

If you click "Download" at the right edge of the screen, scroll down to "Downloads, 2.x" and click "Core", you'll get the direct download.

Here you can find the jackson libraries (version 2.4.0). I got these project from a tutorial where you can see how to implement jackson and the code and libraries are available to download too: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-hangman-app/index.html

Next alternative link : http://www.java2s.com/Code/Jar/j/Downloadjacksonall199jar.htm

You can find here the "AllIn" jars with complete list of included files. But latest version here is 1.9.9. so...

Please try /repositories/snapshots/com/fasterxml/jackson/core

Goto relevant directory

  • jackson-annotations/
  • jackson-core/
  • jackson-databind/

Then open maven-metadata.xml file. You can find the directory of latest version there. Please note that all jars renamed with release date.

I know this question is 4 years old, but the Jackson library is still very hard to find, and even though Sujith PS' answer here leads to the core jar, that was not enough for me.

For anyone who's looking for the jar files for Core, Databind and Annotations, I found them here:

http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.fasterxml.jackson.core

Specifically for version 2.7.4:

jackson-core-2.7.4.jar

jackson-databind-2.7.4.jar

jackson-annotations-2.7.4.jar
