      JsonGenerator useDefaultPrettyPrinter()
      Convenience method for enabling pretty-printing using the default pretty printer (DefaultPrettyPrinter).
      Version version()
      Method called to detect version of the component that implements this interface; returned version should never be null, but may return specific "not available" instance (see Version for details).
      void writeBinary​(Base64Variant b64variant, byte[] data, int offset, int len)
      Method that will output given chunk of binary data as base64 encoded, as a complete String value (surrounded by double quotes).
      void writeBoolean​(boolean state)
      Method for outputting literal Json boolean value (one of Strings 'true' and 'false').

      void writeRaw​(char[] text, int offset, int len)
      Method that will force generator to copy input text verbatim with no modifications (including that no escaping is done and no separators are added even if context [array, object] would otherwise require such).
      void writeRaw​(java.lang.String text)
      Method that will force generator to copy input text verbatim with no modifications (including that no escaping is done and no separators are added even if context [array, object] would otherwise require such).

      void writeRawValue​(java.lang.String text)
      Method that will force generator to copy input text verbatim without any modifications, but assuming it must constitute a single legal JSON value (number, string, boolean, null, Array or List).

      • close

        public void close()
                   throws java.io.IOException
        Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
        Method called to close this generator, so that no more content can be written.

        Whether the underlying target (stream, writer) gets closed depends on whether this generator either manages the target (i.e. is the only one with access to the target -- case if caller passes a reference to the resource such as File, but not stream); or has feature JsonGenerator.Feature.AUTO_CLOSE_TARGET enabled. If either of above is true, the target is also closed. Otherwise (not managing, feature not enabled), target is not closed.

      • copyCurrentEvent

        public void copyCurrentEvent​(JsonParser jp)
                              throws java.io.IOException,
                                     JsonProcessingException
        Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
        Method for copying contents of the current event that the given parser instance points to. Note that the method will not copy any other events, such as events contained within Json Array or Object structures.

        Calling this method will not advance the given parser, although it may cause parser to internally process more data (if it lazy loads contents of value events, for example)

        Specified by:
        copyCurrentEvent in class JsonGenerator
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException
        JsonProcessingException
      • copyCurrentStructure

        public void copyCurrentStructure​(JsonParser jp)
                                  throws java.io.IOException,
                                         JsonProcessingException
        Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
        Method for copying contents of the current event and following events that it encloses the given parser instance points to.

        So what constitutes enclosing? Here is the list of events that have associated enclosed events that will get copied:

        After calling this method, parser will point to the last event that was copied. This will either be the event parser already pointed to (if there were no enclosed events), or the last enclosed event copied.

        Specified by:
        copyCurrentStructure in class JsonGenerator
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException
        JsonProcessingException
      • flush

        public void flush()
                   throws java.io.IOException
        Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
        Method called to flush any buffered content to the underlying target (output stream, writer), and to flush the target itself as well.
        Specified by:
        flush in class JsonGenerator
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException
      • setSchema

        public void setSchema​(FormatSchema schema)
        Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
        Method to call to make this generator use specified schema. Method must be called before generating any content, right after instance has been created. Note that not all generators support schemas; and those that do usually only accept specific types of schemas: ones defined for data format this generator produces.

        If generator does not support specified schema, UnsupportedOperationException is thrown.

        Overrides:
        setSchema in class JsonGenerator
        Parameters:
        schema - Schema to use
      • version

        public Version version()
        Description copied from interface: Versioned
        Method called to detect version of the component that implements this interface; returned version should never be null, but may return specific "not available" instance (see Version for details).
        Specified by:
        version in interface Versioned
        Overrides:
        version in class JsonGenerator
      • getOutputTarget

        public java.lang.Object getOutputTarget()
        Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
        Method that can be used to get access to object that is used as target for generated output; this is usually either OutputStream or Writer, depending on what generator was constructed with. Note that returned value may be null in some cases; including case where implementation does not want to exposed raw source to caller. In cases where output has been decorated, object returned here is the decorated version; this allows some level of interaction between users of generator and decorator object.

        In general use of this accessor should be considered as "last effort", i.e. only used if no other mechanism is applicable.

        Overrides:
        getOutputTarget in class JsonGenerator
      • isClosed

        public boolean isClosed()
        Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
        Method that can be called to determine whether this generator is closed or not. If it is closed, no more output can be done.
        Specified by:
        isClosed in class JsonGenerator
      • writeBinary

        public void writeBinary​(Base64Variant b64variant,
                                byte[] data,
                                int offset,
                                int len)
                         throws java.io.IOException,
                                JsonGenerationException
        Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
        Method that will output given chunk of binary data as base64 encoded, as a complete String value (surrounded by double quotes). This method defaults

        Note: because Json Strings can not contain unescaped linefeeds, if linefeeds are included (as per last argument), they must be escaped. This adds overhead for decoding without improving readability. Alternatively if linefeeds are not included, resulting String value may violate the requirement of base64 RFC which mandates line-length of 76 characters and use of linefeeds. However, all JsonParser implementations are required to accept such "long line base64"; as do typical production-level base64 decoders.

        Specified by:
        writeBinary in class JsonGenerator
        Parameters:
        b64variant - Base64 variant to use: defines details such as whether padding is used (and if so, using which character); what is the maximum line length before adding linefeed, and also the underlying alphabet to use.
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException
        JsonGenerationException
      • writeBoolean

                                 JsonGenerationException
        Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
        Method for outputting literal Json boolean value (one of Strings 'true' and 'false'). Can be called in any context where a value is expected (Array value, Object field value, root-level value). Additional white space may be added around the value if pretty-printing is enabled.
        Specified by:
        writeBoolean in class JsonGenerator
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException
        JsonGenerationException

        Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
        Method for writing closing marker of a JSON Array value (character ']'; plus possible white space decoration if pretty-printing is enabled).

        Marker can be written if the innermost structured type is Array.

        Specified by:

        Throws:
        java.io.IOException
        JsonGenerationException

                                   JsonGenerationException
        Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
        Method for writing closing marker of a JSON Object value (character '}'; plus possible white space decoration if pretty-printing is enabled).

        Marker can be written if the innermost structured type is Object, and the last written event was either a complete value, or START-OBJECT marker (see JSON specification for more details).

        Specified by:
        writeEndObject in class JsonGenerator
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException
        JsonGenerationException

                                   JsonGenerationException
        Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
        Method for writing a field name (JSON String surrounded by double quotes: syntactically identical to a JSON String value), possibly decorated by white space if pretty-printing is enabled.

        Field names can only be written in Object context (check out JSON specification for details), when field name is expected (field names alternate with values).

                                   JsonGenerationException
        Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
        Method similar to JsonGenerator.writeFieldName(String), main difference being that it may perform better as some of processing (such as quoting of certain characters, or encoding into external encoding if supported by generator) can be done just once and reused for later calls.

        Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
        Write method that can be used for custom numeric types that can not be (easily?) converted to "standard" Java number types. Because numbers are not surrounded by double quotes, regular JsonGenerator.writeString(java.lang.String) method can not be used; nor JsonGenerator.writeRaw(java.lang.String) because that does not properly handle value separators needed in Array or Object contexts.

        Note: because of lack of type safety, some generator implementations may not be able to implement this method. For example, if a binary json format is used, it may require type information for encoding; similarly for generator-wrappers around Java objects or Json nodes. If implementation does not implement this method, it needs to throw UnsupportedOperationException.

        Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
        Method for writing given Java object (POJO) as Json. Exactly how the object gets written depends on object in question (ad on codec, its configuration); for most beans it will result in Json object, but for others Json array, or String or numeric value (and for nulls, Json null literal. NOTE: generator must have its object codec set to non-null value; for generators created by a mapping factory this is the case, for others not.

        Method similar to JsonGenerator.writeString(String) but that takes as its input a UTF-8 encoded String that is to be output as-is, without additional escaping (type of which depends on data format; backslashes for JSON). However, quoting that data format requires (like double-quotes for JSON) will be added around the value if and as necessary.

        Note that some backends may choose not to support this method: for example, if underlying destination is a Writer using this method would require UTF-8 decoding. If so, implementation may instead choose to throw a UnsupportedOperationException due to ineffectiveness of having to decode input.

        Description copied from class: JsonGenerator
        Method similar to JsonGenerator.writeString(String) but that takes as its input a UTF-8 encoded String which has not been escaped using whatever escaping scheme data format requires (for JSON that is backslash-escaping for control characters and double-quotes; for other formats something else). This means that textual JSON backends need to check if value needs JSON escaping, but otherwise can just be copied as is to output. Also, quoting that data format requires (like double-quotes for JSON) will be added around the value if and as necessary.
