Dart Error Converting Object To JSON

问题

I'm getting the following error:

Converting object to an encodable object failed: Instance of 'Patient'
#0      _JsonStringifier.writeObject (dart:convert/json.dart:674)
#1      _JsonStringifier.writeList (dart:convert/json.dart:724)

My 'Patient' class:

import 'package:simple_moment/simple_moment.dart';

class Patient {
  String guid;
  String _name;
  String _surname;
  DateTime _updated;

  Patient(String guid) {
    this.guid = guid;
  }

  String get name => _name;
  set name(v) => _name = v;

  String get surname => _surname;
  set surname(v) => _surname = v;

  DateTime get updated => _updated;
  set updated(v) => _updated = v;

  // Helper functions

  String getFullName() => '$_name $_surname';

  String getRelativeLastUpdated() {
    var moment = new Moment.now();
    return moment.from(_updated);
  }

}

回答1:

You can't just convert any arbitrary class instance to JSON

The class needs to implement toEncodable

https://api.dartlang.org/stable/1.24.3/dart-convert/JsonEncoder-class.html

https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/json_serializable is a package that generates code for that so that you don't need to write it manually.

See also https://flutter.io/json/

In my case, I was attempting to use an integer key in a map object. Once I converted it to String, the error was resolved. Good luck.
