Spring-Boot jsonFormat automatically adds time to the Date field-CodePudding

I have a user class like this

public class User {

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    public Integer id;
    public String name;
    @JsonFormat(shape = JsonFormat.Shape.STRING,pattern = "yyyy-MM-dd")
    public Date date;

    public User(String name, Date date) {
        this.name = name;
        this.date = date;
    }

}

when I send the this data in request body

{
    "name":"exampleName",
    "date":"1998-07-05"
}

I recieve the input like this

name---->exampleName
date----> Sun Jul 05 05:30:00 IST 1998

( i don't want the time to be included in this field) Also, I cannot change the variable type from Date to LocaleDate

CodePudding user response：

you need to check if you send data as you wish to accept it,in controller class you need to put this to accept the data as you want `@PostMapping("/date") public void date(@RequestParam("date") @DateTimeFormat(pattern = "dd.MM.yyyy") Date date) {

CodePudding user response：

Use java.time.LocalDate as the type for the date field.

Also, if you want id to be generated upon saving a User, you should annotate the class with @Entity and provide a default, no-args constructor (as well as everything else that's required to implement a persistence layer, but note that user is a reserved word in some SQL dialects).
