Java 8 LocalDate Jackson format

Question

For java.util.Date when I do

@JsonFormat(shape = JsonFormat.Shape.STRING, pattern = \"dd/MM/yyyy\")  
  private Date dateOfBirth;
<         


        

Answer 1

Simplest and shortest so far:

@JsonFormat(pattern = "yyyy-MM-dd")
private LocalDate localDate;

@JsonFormat(pattern = "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss")
private LocalDateTime localDateTime;
