## Class JsonValueSerializer

- java.lang.Object
- - com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JsonSerializer<T>
  - - com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ser.std.StdSerializer<Object>
    - - com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ser.std.JsonValueSerializer

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    JsonFormatVisitable, SchemaAware, ContextualSerializer, Serializable

      public class JsonValueSerializer
      extends StdSerializer<Object>
      implements ContextualSerializer, JsonFormatVisitable, SchemaAware

  Serializer class that can serialize Object that have a `JsonValue` annotation to indicate that serialization should be done by calling the method annotated, and serializing result it returns.

  Implementation note: we will post-process resulting serializer (much like what is done with `BeanSerializer`) to figure out actual serializers for final types. This must be done from `createContextual(com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.SerializerProvider, com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.BeanProperty)` method, and NOT from constructor; otherwise we could end up with an infinite loop.

    All Methods Instance Methods Concrete Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `protected boolean` | `_acceptJsonFormatVisitorForEnum(JsonFormatVisitorWrapper visitor, JavaType typeHint, Class<?> enumType)` Overridable helper method used for special case handling of schema information for Enums.
    `void` | `acceptJsonFormatVisitor(JsonFormatVisitorWrapper visitor, JavaType typeHint)` Default implementation specifies no format.

  - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### JsonValueSerializer

          public JsonValueSerializer(AnnotatedMember accessor,
                                     JsonSerializer<?> ser)

      Parameters:
        `ser` - Explicit serializer to use, if caller knows it (which occurs if and only if the "value method" was annotated with `JsonSerialize.using()`), otherwise null
      Since:
        2.8 Earlier method took "raw" Method, but that does not work with access to information we need

                                     BeanProperty property,

                                             throws JsonMappingException

      We can try to find the actual serializer for value, if we can statically figure out what the result type must be.
      Specified by:
        `createContextual` in interface `ContextualSerializer`
      Parameters:
        `provider` - Serializer provider to use for accessing config, other serializers
        `property` - Method or field that represents the property (and is used to access value to serialize). Should be available; but there may be cases where caller cannot provide it and null is passed instead (in which case impls usually pass 'this' serializer as is)
      Returns:
        Serializer to use for serializing values of specified property; may be this instance or a new instance.
      Throws:
        `JsonMappingException`

    - #### serialize

          public void serialize(Object bean,
                                JsonGenerator gen,
                                SerializerProvider prov)
                         throws IOException

      Description copied from class: `JsonSerializer`
      Method that can be called to ask implementation to serialize values of type this serializer handles.
      Specified by:
        `serialize` in class `StdSerializer<Object>`
      Parameters:
        `bean` - Value to serialize; can not be null.
        `gen` - Generator used to output resulting Json content
        `prov` - Provider that can be used to get serializers for serializing Objects value contains, if any.
      Throws:
        `IOException`

    - #### serializeWithType

          public void serializeWithType(Object bean,
                                        JsonGenerator gen,
                                        SerializerProvider provider,
                                        TypeSerializer typeSer0)
                                 throws IOException

      Description copied from class: `JsonSerializer`
      Method that can be called to ask implementation to serialize values of type this serializer handles, using specified type serializer for embedding necessary type information.

      Default implementation will throw `UnsupportedOperationException` to indicate that proper type handling needs to be implemented.

      For simple datatypes written as a single scalar value (JSON String, Number, Boolean), implementation would look like:

            // note: method to call depends on whether this type is serialized as JSON scalar, object or Array!
            typeSer.writeTypePrefixForScalar(value, gen);
            serialize(value, gen, provider);
            typeSer.writeTypeSuffixForScalar(value, gen);

      and implementations for type serialized as JSON Arrays or Objects would differ slightly, as `START-ARRAY`/`END-ARRAY` and `START-OBJECT`/`END-OBJECT` pairs need to be properly handled with respect to serializing of contents.
      Overrides:
        `serializeWithType` in class `JsonSerializer<Object>`
      Parameters:
        `bean` - Value to serialize; can not be null.
        `gen` - Generator used to output resulting Json content
        `provider` - Provider that can be used to get serializers for serializing Objects value contains, if any.
        `typeSer0` - Type serializer to use for including type information
      Throws:
        `IOException`

    - #### getSchema

          public JsonNode getSchema(SerializerProvider provider,
                                    Type typeHint)
                             throws JsonMappingException

      Description copied from class: `StdSerializer`
      Default implementation simply claims type is "string"; usually overriden by custom serializers.
      Specified by:
        `getSchema` in interface `SchemaAware`
      Overrides:
        `getSchema` in class `StdSerializer<Object>`
      Parameters:
        `provider` - The serializer provider.
        `typeHint` - A hint about the type.
      Returns:
        Json-schema for this serializer.
      Throws:
        `JsonMappingException`

    - #### acceptJsonFormatVisitor

          public void acceptJsonFormatVisitor(JsonFormatVisitorWrapper visitor,
                                              JavaType typeHint)
                                       throws JsonMappingException

      Description copied from class: `StdSerializer`
      Default implementation specifies no format. This behavior is usually overriden by custom serializers.
      Specified by:
        `acceptJsonFormatVisitor` in interface `JsonFormatVisitable`
      Overrides:
        `acceptJsonFormatVisitor` in class `StdSerializer<Object>`
        `typeHint` - Type of element (entity like property) being visited
      Throws:
        `JsonMappingException`

    - #### _acceptJsonFormatVisitorForEnum

          protected boolean _acceptJsonFormatVisitorForEnum(JsonFormatVisitorWrapper visitor,
                                                            JavaType typeHint,
                                                            Class<?> enumType)
                                                     throws JsonMappingException

      Overridable helper method used for special case handling of schema information for Enums.
      Returns:
        True if method handled callbacks; false if not; in latter case caller will send default callbacks
      Throws:
        `JsonMappingException`
      Since:
        2.6
