Project to build Jackson module (jar) to support JSON serialization and deserialization of Guava collection types.
As of version 2.0 module is usable although coverage is not extensive: more support is added mainly via user contributions.
To use module on Maven-based projects, use following dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.datatype</groupId>
<artifactId>jackson-datatype-guava</artifactId>
<version>2.2.0</version>
</dependency>(or whatever version is most up-to-date at the moment)
Like all standard Jackson modules (libraries that implement Module interface), registration is done as follows:
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
mapper.registerModule(new GuavaModule());after which functionality is available for all normal Jackson operations.
