I have serialised the data class model "ProfileInfo" using

val jsonString = jacksonObjectMapper().setPropertyNamingStrategy(PropertyNamingStrategy.SNAKE_CASE).writeValueAsString(profileInfo)

but when I deserialise the jsonString into data class model using

val profileInfo: ProfileInfo = jacksonObjectMapper().readValue<ProfileInfo>(jsonString)

only the fields without underscores receiving the value. other fields with underscores assigned as null. Could anybody help me about how to deserialise using Jackson object mapper.

Each call to the jacksonObjectMapper() creates a new ObjectMapper, so either:

  • use the same object mapper for both, serialization and deserialization
val mapper = jacksonObjectMapper().setPropertyNamingStrategy(PropertyNamingStrategy.SNAKE_CASE)
val jsonString = mapper.writeValueAsString(profileInfo)
...
val profileInfo: ProfileInfo = mapper.readValue(jsonString)
  • configure property naming strategy for deserialization the same way, you are doing it for serialization
val profileInfo: ProfileInfo = jacksonObjectMapper().setPropertyNamingStrategy(PropertyNamingStrategy.SNAKE_CASE).readValue(jsonString)
