使用JSON将嵌套对象发布到Spring MVC控制器

标签: jquery ajax json spring spring-mvc

我有一个控制器,POST处理程序定义如下:

@RequestMapping(value="/ajax/saveVendor.do", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public @ResponseBody AjaxResponse saveVendor( @Valid UIVendor vendor,
                                              BindingResult result,
                                              Locale currentLocale )

以JSON格式查看时,UIVendor对象如下所示:

var vendor = 
{
  vendorId: 123,
  vendorName: "ABC Company",
  emails : [
             { emailAddress: "abc123@abc.com", flags: 2 },
             { emailAddress: "xyz@abc.com", flags: 3 }
           ]
}

UIVendor bean有一个名为“Emails”的字段ArrayList,带有适当的setter和getter(getEmails / setEmails)。 NotificationEmail对象也有适当的公共setter / getters。

当我尝试使用以下代码发布对象时:

$.post("ajax/saveVendor.do", $.param(vendor), saveEntityCallback, "json" );

我在日志中收到此错误:

Invalid property 'emails[0][emailAddress]' of bean class [beans.UIVendor]: Property referenced in indexed property path 'emails[0][emailAddress]' is neither an array nor a List nor a Map; returned value was [abc123@abc.com]

如何正确地将这样的嵌套对象发布到Spring控制器并将其正确地反序列化为适当的对象结构。

更新 Per Bohzo的请求,这是UIVendor类的内容。此类包装Web服务生成的bean类,将VendorAttributes作为单独的字段公开:

更新2 这是杰克逊的输出:

{
  "vendorName":"MAIL",
  "vendorId":45,
  "emails":
  [
    {
      "emailAddress":"dfg",
      "success":false,
      "failure":false,
      "flags":0
    }
  ],
  "vendorType":"DFG",
  "ftpFlag":true,
  "ftpHost":"kdsfjng",
  "ftpPath":"dsfg",
  "ftpUser":"sdfg",
  "ftpPassword":"sdfg",
  "status":"A"
}

这是我在POST上返回的对象的结构:

{
  "vendorId":"45",
  "vendorName":"MAIL",
  "vendorType":"DFG",
  "ftpFlag":true,
  "ftpHost":"kdsfjng",
  "ftpUser":"sdfg",
  "ftpPath":"dsfg",
  "ftpPassword":"sdfg",
  "status":"A",
  "emails": 
            [
              {
                "success":"false",
                "failure":"false",
                "emailAddress":"dfg"
              },
              {
                "success":"true",
                "failure":"true",
                "emailAddress":"pfc@sj.org"
              }
            ]
}

我也尝试使用www.json.org上的JSON库进行序列化,结果正是您在上面看到的结果。但是,当我发布该数据时,传递给控制器​​的UIVendor对象中的所有字段都为空(尽管该对象不是)。

更新:自Spring 3.1以来,可以使用@Valid On @RequestBody Controller Method Arguments

@RequestMapping(value="/ajax/saveVendor.do", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public @ResponseBody AjaxResponse saveVendor( @Valid @RequestBody UIVendor vendor,
                                              BindingResult result,
                                              Locale currentLocale )

经过多次反复试验,我终于想出了问题所在。使用以下控制器方法签名时:

@RequestMapping(value="/ajax/saveVendor.do", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public @ResponseBody AjaxResponse saveVendor( @Valid UIVendor vendor,
                                              BindingResult result,
                                              Locale currentLocale )

客户端脚本必须以后数据(通常是“application / x-www-form-urlencoded”)格式(即field = value&amp; field2 = value2)传递对象中的字段。这是在jQuery中完成的,如下所示:

$.post( "mycontroller.do", $.param(object), callback, "json" )

这适用于没有子对象或集合的简单POJO对象,但是一旦为传递的对象引入了显着的复杂性,jQuery用于序列化对象数据的符号就不会被Spring的映射逻辑识别:

object[0][field]

我解决这个问题的方法是将控制器中的方法签名更改为:

@RequestMapping(value="/ajax/saveVendor.do", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public @ResponseBody AjaxResponse saveVendor( @RequestBody UIVendor vendor,
                                              Locale currentLocale )

将来自客户的电话更改为:

    $.ajax(
            {
              url:"ajax/mycontroller.do", 
              type: "POST", 
              data: JSON.stringify( objecdt ), 
              success: callback, 
              dataType: "json",
              contentType: "application/json"
            } );    

这需要使用JSON javascript库。它还强制contentType为“application / json”,这是Spring在使用@RequestBody注释时所期望的,并将对象序列化为Jackson可以反序列化为有效对象结构的格式。

唯一的副作用是现在我必须在控制器方法中处理我自己的对象验证,但这相对简单:

BindingResult result = new BeanPropertyBindingResult( object, "MyObject" );
Validator validator = new MyObjectValidator();
validator.validate( object, result );

如果有人有任何改进这个过程的建议,我会全力以赴。

首先,抱歉我的英语不好

在spring中,如果param名称类似于object [0] [field],他们会将其视为类似sub的​​类

public class Test {

    private List<Map> field;

    /**
     * @return the field
     */
    public List<Map> getField() {
        return field;
    }

    /**
     * @param field the field to set
     */
    public void setField(List<Map> field) {
        this.field = field;
    }
}

这就是为什么春天会抛出一个异常,说某些东西&#34;既不是数组也不是List也不是Map&#34;。

只有当参数名称为object [0] .field时,spring才会将其视为一个类的字段。

你可以在org.springframework.beans.PropertyAccessor中找到常量def

所以我的解决方案是为jquery编写一个新的param插件,如下所示:

(function($) {
  // copy from jquery.js
  var r20 = /%20/g,
  rbracket = /\[\]$/;

  $.extend({
    customParam: function( a ) {
      var s = [],
        add = function( key, value ) {
          // If value is a function, invoke it and return its value
          value = jQuery.isFunction( value ) ? value() : value;
          s[ s.length ] = encodeURIComponent( key ) + "=" + encodeURIComponent( value );
        };

      // If an array was passed in, assume that it is an array of form elements.
      if ( jQuery.isArray( a ) || ( a.jquery && !jQuery.isPlainObject( a ) ) ) {
        // Serialize the form elements
        jQuery.each( a, function() {
          add( this.name, this.value );
        });

      } else {
        for ( var prefix in a ) {
          buildParams( prefix, a[ prefix ], add );
        }
      }

      // Return the resulting serialization
      return s.join( "&" ).replace( r20, "+" );
    }
  });

/* private method*/
function buildParams( prefix, obj, add ) {
  if ( jQuery.isArray( obj ) ) {
    // Serialize array item.
    jQuery.each( obj, function( i, v ) {
      if (rbracket.test( prefix ) ) {
        // Treat each array item as a scalar.
        add( prefix, v );

      } else {
        buildParams( prefix + "[" + ( typeof v === "object" || jQuery.isArray(v) ? i : "" ) + "]", v, add );
      }
    });

  } else if (obj != null && typeof obj === "object" ) {
    // Serialize object item.
    for ( var name in obj ) {
      buildParams( prefix + "." + name, obj[ name ], add );
    }

  } else {
    // Serialize scalar item.
    add( prefix, obj );
  }
};
})(jQuery);

实际我只是从

更改代码
buildParams( prefix + "[" + name + "]", obj[ name ], traditional, add );

buildParams( prefix + "." + name, obj[ name ], add );

并在执行ajax请求时使用$ .customParam而不是$ .param。

答案 2 :(得分:4)

您可以尝试这样的事情:

vendor['emails[0].emailAddress'] = "abc123@abc.com";
vendor['emails[0].flags'] = 3;
vendor['emails[1].emailAddress'] = "xyz@abc.com";
vendor['emails[1].flags'] = 3;

:)

答案 3 :(得分:1)

将字段定义为List(接口),而不是ArrayList(具体类型):

private List emailAddresses = new ArrayList();
