Answer 1

when limited time +ee: +jax-rs && +persistence, +gson; I have solved it then as:

@Entity
@XmlRootElement
@Table(name="element")
public class Element implements Serializable {
    public Element(String stringJSON){
        Gson g = new Gson();
        Element a = g.fromJson(stringJSON, this.getClass());
        this.setId(a.getId());
        this.setProperty(a.getProperty());
    }

    public Element() {}
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    private Integer id;
    ...
}
