I would like to save some documents with the value containing a generic. And I constantly receive a StackOferflowError.
Here is a fragment of my model class
data class MyDocument {
val errors: List<SomeError> = emptyList()
}
SomeError is in interface that should be implemented by different types of errors including ValidationError
interface SomeError
data class ValidationError<T: Any>(val objectType: KClass<T>, val objectId: String) : SomeError
I am trying to save my object with non-empty list of errors (using ReactiveMongoRespoitory):
myDocumentRepository.save(MyDocument(
errors = listOf(
ValidationError<MyDocument>(objectType = MyDocument::class, objectId = "somedoc")) //as SomeError did not help
))
Do you know how I can correct it?
This is a psrt of the Stack trace:
java.lang.StackOverflowError
at java.base/java.util.HashMap.putVal(HashMap.java:624)
at java.base/java.util.HashMap.putMapEntries(HashMap.java:510)
at java.base/java.util.HashMap.putAll(HashMap.java:780)
at org.springframework.data.util.TypeDiscoverer.resolveType(TypeDiscoverer.java:168)
at org.springframework.data.util.ParameterizedTypeInformation.calculateTypeVariables(ParameterizedTypeInformation.java:269)
You can do something like this:
import org.springframework.data.annotation.Transient
data class ValidationError private constructor(
private val type: String,
val objectId: String
) : SomeError {
constructor(type: KClass<*>, objectId: String) : this(type.qualifiedName!!, objectId)
#delegate:Transient
val objectType by lazy {
this.javaClass.classLoader.loadClass(type).kotlin
}
}
Store KClass internally as fully qualified name.

I am new to Kotlin, and I'm trying to figure out how parsing unknown JSON works.
I have the following set of classes:
#Serializable
abstract class Node {
val name: String = ""
val type: String = ""
abstract val spec: Any
}
#Serializable
class TestNode : Node() {
override val spec: TestNodeSpec = TestNodeSpec()
}
#Serializable
class TestNodeSpec {
val test: String = "testSpec"
}
I can successfully parse an object directly to a TestNode, but for my purpose I want to be able to read the type to determine the correct class to parse it as. How is this done in Kotlin?
I've got a stupid question that stunned me a bit.
I have an enum and a data class like this:
enum class MyEventType(val typeName: String) {
FIRST("firstEventReceived")
}
data class MyEvent(
val id: String,
val event: MyEventType
)
I need to send this as a json string, but common desearilizer makes such a json
{
"id": "identifier",
"event": "FIRST"
}
but i need
{
"id": "identifier",
"event": "firstEventReceived"
}
As far as i understand, kotlin allows to override getter in data class, but i didn't succeed in it... Trying to make
data class MyEvent(
val id: String
) {
val event: MyEventType get() event.typeName
}
but i've missed something, i guess...
The simplest way is probably to annotate the property with #JsonValue:
enum class MyEventType(#JsonValue val typeName: String) {
FIRST("firstEventReceived")
}
data class MyEvent(
val id: String,
val event: MyEventType
)
fun main() {
MyEvent(id = "foo", event = MyEventType.FIRST)
.let { jacksonObjectMapper().writeValueAsString(it) }
.let { println(it) }
}
Prints:
{"id":"foo","event":"firstEventReceived"}
The easiest way is to annotate the typeName with #JsonValue. This will serialise and deserialise the enum field as you want.
enum class MyEventType(#JsonValue val typeName: String) {
FIRST("firstEventReceived");
}
An alternative is to use #JsonFormat (if you are using jackson version < 2.9);
enum class MyEventType(#JsonFormat(shape = JsonFormat.Shape.OBJECT) val typeName: String) {
FIRST("firstEventReceived");
}
Herer's an example;
#JvmStatic
fun main(args: Array<String>) {
val mapper = jacksonObjectMapper()
val json = mapper.writeValueAsString(MyEvent("1", MyEventType.FIRST))
println(json)
val event = mapper.readValue<MyEvent>(json)
println(event)
}
You get the output;
{"id":"1","event":"firstEventReceived"}
MyEvent(id=1, event=FIRST)
I used Jackson version 2.12.0. Here's a good read on enum manipulation with Jackson - https://www.baeldung.com/jackson-serialize-enums
Also you can have enum with 2+ fields which you want to be serialized
enum class MyEventType(
val firstField: String,
val secondField: String,
val thirdField: String
) {
MY_ENUM("firstFieldValue", "secondFieldValue", "thirdFieldValue")
}
You can chose one of the following two options:
Put #JsonValue over a method(lets call it getter) that will return the required value(if you need only part of the fields):
#JsonValue
fun getSerializedObject(): String {
return "{firstField: $firstField, thirdField: $thirdField}"
}
Result will be "{firstField: firstFieldValue, thirdField: thirdFieldValue}"
Put #JsonFormat(shape = JsonFormat.Shape.OBJECT) over your enum class(for serialization class as common class):
#JsonFormat(shape = JsonFormat.Shape.OBJECT)
enum class MyEventType(
val firstField: String,
val secondField: String,
val thirdField: String
) {
MY_ENUM("firstField", "secondField", "thirdField")
}
Result will be "{"firstField": "firstFieldValue", "secondField": "secondFieldValue", "thirdField": "thirdFieldValue"}"
For GSON users, you can use the #SerializedName annotation:
enum class ConnectionStatus {
#SerializedName("open")
OPEN,
#SerializedName("connecting")
CONNECTING,
#SerializedName("closed")
CLOSED
}
There is a interface A:
interface A {
val name: String
}
Also there is one class B implementing this interface:
class B() : A {
val implementedName: String = "Test"
override val name: String
get() = implementedName
}
Then i try to serialize this class B:
val b: A = B()
Gson().toJson(b)
And geht the following output:
// Output
{"implementedName":"Test"}
I realize the gson to type erasure can't infere the type of the variable b, but what I want to see is gson serializing the interface fields:
// Output
{"name":"Test"}
How can i achieve this?
Gson can't do that. Using SerializedName annotation Android Studio highlights that it is not possible to do this. This annotation is not applicable to target 'member property without backing field or delegate. But implementing it this way should work.
interface A {
val name: String
}
class B() : A {
#SerializedName("your_name")
override val name: String = "Test"
}
Then using Gson().toJson(b) the output should be:
{"your_name": "Test"}
Not sure if it is possible yet but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to serialize this.
sealed class ServiceResult<out T : Any> {
data class Success<out T : Any>(val data: T) : ServiceResult<T>()
data class Error(val exception: Exception) : ServiceResult<Nothing>()
}
Everything that is stuff into T is using #Serializable ex:
#Serializable
data class GalleryDTO(
override val id: Int,
override val dateCreated: Long,
override val dateUpdated: Long,
val name:String,
val description:String,
val photos:List<DTOMin>
) : DTO
As Animesh Sahu already mentioned there is an issue for this topic that is still open, but the solution using a surrogate suggested by Михаил Нафталь for serialization of Error can actually be used also to serialize the polymorphic ServiceResult, by creating a surrogate that mixes the fields of Success and Error. For the sake of simplicity in the example I only represent the exception message.
#Serializable(with = ServiceResultSerializer::class)
sealed class ServiceResult<out T : Any> {
data class Success<out T : Any>(val data: T) : ServiceResult<T>()
data class Error(val exceptionMessage: String?) : ServiceResult<Nothing>()
}
class ServiceResultSerializer<T : Any>(
tSerializer: KSerializer<T>
) : KSerializer<ServiceResult<T>> {
#Serializable
#SerialName("ServiceResult")
data class ServiceResultSurrogate<T : Any>(
val type: Type,
// The annotation is not necessary, but it avoids serializing "data = null"
// for "Error" results.
#EncodeDefault(EncodeDefault.Mode.NEVER)
val data: T? = null,
#EncodeDefault(EncodeDefault.Mode.NEVER)
val exceptionMessage: String? = null
) {
enum class Type { SUCCESS, ERROR }
}
private val surrogateSerializer = ServiceResultSurrogate.serializer(tSerializer)
override val descriptor: SerialDescriptor = surrogateSerializer.descriptor
override fun deserialize(decoder: Decoder): ServiceResult<T> {
val surrogate = surrogateSerializer.deserialize(decoder)
return when (surrogate.type) {
ServiceResultSurrogate.Type.SUCCESS ->
if (surrogate.data != null)
ServiceResult.Success(surrogate.data)
else
throw SerializationException("Missing data for successful result")
ServiceResultSurrogate.Type.ERROR ->
ServiceResult.Error(surrogate.exceptionMessage)
}
}
override fun serialize(encoder: Encoder, value: ServiceResult<T>) {
val surrogate = when (value) {
is ServiceResult.Error -> ServiceResultSurrogate(
ServiceResultSurrogate.Type.ERROR,
exceptionMessage = value.exceptionMessage
)
is ServiceResult.Success -> ServiceResultSurrogate(
ServiceResultSurrogate.Type.SUCCESS,
data = value.data
)
}
surrogateSerializer.serialize(encoder, surrogate)
}
}
This solution can also be easily extended to support nullable Ts. In this case when deserializing you will also have to check if null is a valid value for T (it can be done by checking descriptor.isNullable on tSerializer) and you will also have to cast data as T.
Polymorphic serialization will be a mess in this case (you will have to manually register all possible types passed as a generic parameter to ServiceResult<T>), and will have several limitations (it would be impossible to register primitive types (including Nothing and String) as generic parameters, for instance).
If you only need serialization (aka encoding), I'd recommend to serialize both subtypes independently (for convenience, wrap subtype determination into auxilary function):
inline fun <reified T : Any> serializeServiceResult(x: ServiceResult<T>) = when (x) {
is ServiceResult.Success -> Json.encodeToString(x)
is ServiceResult.Error -> Json.encodeToString(x)
}
To serialize ServiceResult.Success you need just to mark it with #Serializable annotation. The tricky part here is serialization of ServiceResult.Error, or more precisely, serialization of its exception: Exception field. I'd suggest to serialize only its message (via surrogate):
sealed class ServiceResult<out T : Any> {
#Serializable
data class Success<out T : Any>(val data: T) : ServiceResult<T>()
#Serializable(with = ErrorSerializer::class)
data class Error(val exception: Exception) : ServiceResult<Nothing>()
}
#Serializable
private data class ErrorSurrogate(val error: String)
class ErrorSerializer : KSerializer<ServiceResult.Error> {
override val descriptor: SerialDescriptor = ErrorSurrogate.serializer().descriptor
override fun deserialize(decoder: Decoder): ServiceResult.Error {
val surrogate = decoder.decodeSerializableValue(ErrorSurrogate.serializer())
return ServiceResult.Error(Exception(surrogate.error))
}
override fun serialize(encoder: Encoder, value: ServiceResult.Error) {
val surrogate = ErrorSurrogate(value.exception.toString())
encoder.encodeSerializableValue(ErrorSurrogate.serializer(), surrogate)
}
}
I'm trying to pass data class to the service-proxy of Vert.x like this:
data class Entity(val field: String)
#ProxyGen
#VertxGen
public interface DatabaseService {
DatabaseService createEntity(Entity entity, Handler<AsyncResult<Void>> resultHandler);
}
However, the service-proxy requires a DataObject as the parameter type.
Below are what I've tried so far.
First, I rewrite the data class as:
#DataObject
data class Entity(val field: String) {
constructor(json: JsonObject) : this(
json.getString("field")
)
fun toJson(): JsonObject = JsonObject.mapFrom(this)
}
Although this works, the code is redundant, so I tried the kapt with the following generator:
override fun process(annotations: Set<TypeElement>, roundEnv: RoundEnvironment): Boolean {
roundEnv.getElementsAnnotatedWith(ProxyDataObject::class.java).forEach { el ->
val className = el.simpleName.toString()
val pack = processingEnv.elementUtils.getPackageOf(el).toString()
val filename = "Proxy$className"
val classBuilder = TypeSpec.classBuilder(filename)
val primaryConstructorBuilder = FunSpec.constructorBuilder()
val secondaryConstructorBuilder = FunSpec.constructorBuilder().addParameter("json", JsonObject::class)
val secondaryConstructorCodeBlocks = mutableListOf<CodeBlock>()
el.enclosedElements.forEach {
if (it.kind == ElementKind.FIELD) {
val name = it.simpleName.toString()
val kClass = getClass(it) // get the corresponding Kotlin class
val jsonTypeName = getJsonTypeName(it) // get the corresponding type name in methods of JsonObject
classBuilder.addProperty(PropertySpec.builder(name, kClass).initializer(name).build())
primaryConstructorBuilder.addParameter(name, kClass)
secondaryConstructorCodeBlocks.add(CodeBlock.of("json.get$jsonTypeName(\"$name\")"))
}
}
secondaryConstructorBuilder.callThisConstructor(secondaryConstructorCodeBlocks)
classBuilder
.addAnnotation(DataObject::class)
.addModifiers(KModifier.DATA)
.primaryConstructor(primaryConstructorBuilder.build())
.addFunction(secondaryConstructorBuilder.build())
.addFunction(
FunSpec.builder("toJson").returns(JsonObject::class).addStatement("return JsonObject.mapFrom(this)").build()
)
val generatedFile = FileSpec.builder(pack, filename).addType(classBuilder.build()).build()
generatedFile.writeTo(processingEnv.filer)
}
return true
}
Then I can get the correct generated file by simply writing the original data class, but when I execute the building after cleaning, I still get the following error:
Could not generate model for DatabaseService#createEntity(ProxyEntity,io.vertx.core.Handler<io.vertx.core.AsyncResult<java.lang.Void>>): type ProxyEntity is not legal for use for a parameter in proxy
It seems that the generated annotation #DataObject is not processed.
So what should I do? Is there a better solution?
