JAX WS RS using Jersey - returning Collection, Map etc

Question

I'm using Jersey 2.3

My WS endpoint class :

@Path("/employees")
public class EmployeeWSEndpoint {

    @Context
    Request request;

    @GET
    @Path("/allEmployees")
    @Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
    public List<Employee> getAllEmployees() {

        System.out.println("In EmployeeWSEndpoint.getAllEmployees()");

        EmployeeService employeeService = new EmployeeServiceImpl();
        return employeeService.getAllEmployees();
    }

    @GET
    @Path("/allDept")
    @Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
    public List<String> getAllDept() {

        System.out.println("In EmployeeWSEndpoint.getAllDept()");

        List<String> deptNames = new ArrayList<>();
        deptNames.add("CoE");
        deptNames.add("iLabs");

        return deptNames;
    }

    @GET
    @Path("/allDeptPOJO")
    @Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
    public TempPOJO getAllDeptPOJO() {

        System.out.println("In EmployeeWSEndpoint.getAllDeptPOJO");

        TempPOJO tempPOJO = new TempPOJO();

        return tempPOJO;
    }
}

Employee POJO :

public class Employee {

    private int id;
    private String firstName;
    private String middleName;
    private String lastName;
    private Date dob;
    private int deptId;

    public Employee() {

    }

    public Employee(String firstName, String middleName, String lastName,
            Date dob, int deptId) {
        this.firstName = firstName;
        this.middleName = middleName;
        this.lastName = lastName;
        this.dob = dob;
        this.deptId = deptId;
    }

    public Employee(int id, String firstName, String middleName,
            String lastName, Date dob, int deptId) {
        this.id = id;
        this.firstName = firstName;
        this.middleName = middleName;
        this.lastName = lastName;
        this.dob = dob;
        this.deptId = deptId;
    }

    public int getId() {
        return id;
    }

    public void setId(int id) {
        this.id = id;
    }

    public String getFirstName() {
        return firstName;
    }

    public void setFirstName(String firstName) {
        this.firstName = firstName;
    }

    public String getMiddleName() {
        return middleName;
    }

    public void setMiddleName(String middleName) {
        this.middleName = middleName;
    }

    public String getLastName() {
        return lastName;
    }

    public void setLastName(String lastName) {
        this.lastName = lastName;
    }

    public Date getDob() {
        return dob;
    }

    public void setDob(Date dob) {
        this.dob = dob;
    }

    public int getDeptId() {
        return deptId;
    }

    public void setDeptId(int deptId) {
        this.deptId = deptId;
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return firstName + " " + middleName + " " + " " + lastName;
    }
}

A temporary POJO :

public class TempPOJO {

    private List<String> deptNames;

    public List<String> getDeptNames() {

        deptNames = new ArrayList<>();
        deptNames.add("CoE");
        deptNames.add("iLabs");

        return deptNames;
    }

    public void setDeptNames(List<String> deptNames) {
        this.deptNames = deptNames;
    }

}

Listing the output(s) for different methods :

allEmployees

[{"deptId":1,"dob":"1978-06-19","firstName":"Garfield","id":0,"lastName":"Arbuckle","middleName":"John"},{"deptId":1,"dob":"1946-07-07","firstName":"John","id":0,"lastName":"Rambo","middleName":"R"}]

/allDeptPOJO

{"deptNames":["CoE","iLabs"]}

I have some queries :

I guess since Jersey 2.3, annotation 'XmlRootElement' isn't necessary for POJOs - I haven't done it, yet, the calls work. Please confirm
In case of a List of a pojo(Employee) or a pojo having a List, the response is proper but for List, Map etc. it fails(basically, for Java types) - why is this so? If it works for Employee, why doesn't it work for Java types? Is there a need to write an XmlAdapter?

Note : I want the response in JSON in most of the cases.

Modifying the web.xml to use Jackson :

Jackson is the best solution for me at the moment.

To use Jackson as your JSON provider you need to add jersey-media-json-jackson module to your pom.xml file:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.glassfish.jersey.media</groupId>
    <artifactId>jersey-media-json-jackson</artifactId>
    <version>2.7</version>
</dependency>

Note: Auto-discovery feature does not work.

Building client with Jackson JSON feature enabled:

final Client client = ClientBuilder.newBuilder()
                    .register(JacksonFeature.class)
                    .build();

Creating JAX-RS server application with Jackson JSON feature enabled:

final Application application = new ResourceConfig()
                              .packages("my.rest.package")
                              .register(JacksonFeature.class);

Also check official Jersey json-jackson example.

I also needed jackson-module-jaxb-annotations-2.5.0 – Dejell Jan 10 '15 at 20:02 — Dejell, Jan 10 '15 at 20:02

Use a different JSON provider

I don't know why jersey startet to adopt MOXy as their default JSON provider, but it's obviously a bad idea.

The problems you (and me - and others) are experiencing are the result of MOXy beeing unable to map collections of simple Java types (like String) - that's just ridiculous imho. Other providers (like jackson) do not have this problem, so switching will definitely help.

Here is what I did:

Tell Jersey not to use MOXy. Add this to your web.xml:

<init-param>
    <param-name>jersey.config.disableMoxyJson.server</param-name>
    <param-value>true</param-value>
</init-param>

Add Jackson to your pom. Something like this will do:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.codehaus.jackson</groupId>
    <artifactId>jackson-jaxrs</artifactId>
    <version>1.9.12</version>
</dependency>

Tell jersey to scan the jackson jackson packages. It will find (and use) the json providers provided by jackson:

<init-param>
    <param-name>jersey.config.server.provider.packages</param-name>
    <param-value>com.example.your.package;org.codehaus.jackson.jaxrs</param-value>
</init-param>

Have appended the changes and (new) exception to my original query. For using Jackson, in addition to your inputs, do I need to implement the steps mentioned here : https://jersey.java.net/documentation/latest/media.html#json.jackson — Kaliyug Antagonist, Nov 07 '13 at 04:43
FYI Moxy by now (I tested version 2.6) is capable of handling collections. — Péter Török, Aug 15 '14 at 13:50
This was not working for me. is weird that Jersey would have this major bug for that long. — moshe beeri, Feb 19 '15 at 12:29
@PéterTörök, moxy does not handle collections of natives or built-ins like strings, maps, et al. — Alex, May 06 '15 at 15:58

Note: I'm the EclipseLink JAXB (MOXy) lead and a member of the JAXB (JSR-222) expert group.

The exception you are hitting is due to a bug in MOXy's MOXyJsonProvider. MOXyJsonProvider is an implementation of the JAX-RS interfaces MessageBodyReader/MessageBodyWriter. I have changed the isWriteable method to return false for List<String> to return false so that another provider can handle it.

I have also opened the following enhancement request to have this support added to MOXy:

While this is indeed the "why", it doesn't provide a solution. Also, 4 years later and this is still an open Moxy issue...wow. The answer is to use Jackson. I don't quite understand why Jersey suggests Moxy when there are issues like this. – ChrisO Dec 01 '17 at 00:16

You can use RestEasy as JAX-RS implementation

GlassFish4 uses Jersey/MOXy as implementation of the JAX-RS. They have problem with mapping collections of simple Java types (like String) to JSON - https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=417723

WildFly and JBoss use RestEasy/Jackson as implementation of the JAX-RS and there is no problem with mapping.

You can use RestEasy instead of Jersey in any java application server, e.g. WildFly (JBoss), GlassFish or Tomcat,

just replace:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>javax</groupId>
        <artifactId>javaee-api</artifactId>
        <version>7.0</version>
        <scope>provided</scope>
    </dependency>

with:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.jboss.resteasy</groupId>
        <artifactId>resteasy-servlet-initializer</artifactId>
        <version>3.0.7.Final</version>
        <scope>compile</scope>
    </dependency>        
    <dependency>
       <groupId>org.jboss.resteasy</groupId>
       <artifactId>resteasy-jaxrs</artifactId>
       <version>3.0.7.Final</version>
        <scope>compile</scope>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.jboss.resteasy</groupId>
        <artifactId>resteasy-jackson-provider</artifactId>
        <version>3.0.7.Final</version>
        <scope>compile</scope>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.jboss.resteasy</groupId>
        <artifactId>resteasy-jaxb-provider</artifactId>
        <version>3.0.7.Final</version>
        <scope>compile</scope>
    </dependency>

It's working for me.

I had the same problem returning a List<String> object. I wrapped it in a RestStringList class and that works. If we have more of these to do though, I may switch to Jackson.

import java.io.Serializable;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

public class RestStringList implements Serializable {
    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

    private List<String> stringList = null;

    public RestStringList() {
        this.stringList = new ArrayList<String>();
    }

    public void setStringList(List<String> stringList) {
        this.stringList = new ArrayList<String>(stringList);
    }

    public List<String> getStringList() {
        return stringList;
    }

    public String toString() {
        return "{ strings=" + stringList + " }";
    }
}

JAX WS RS using Jersey - returning Collection, Map etc
