Issue
Trying to unit test receiving a page from spring boot. If used with javascript the page can be easily be deserialized, but with java, it fails. Have added a default constructor for spring (which is an accepted answer in another stackoverflow post) but it does not work here.
Unit Test
@Test
public void test_read_pagination_happy(@Autowired ObservationSet set) {
repository.save(set);
final HttpEntity<String> authHeaders = authentication.convert("", authSuccess);
final ParameterizedTypeReference<RestResponsePage<ObservationSet>> responseType = new ParameterizedTypeReference<RestResponsePage<ObservationSet>>() {
};
// final ResponseEntity<String> result = restTemplate.exchange(base + "/api/v1/observationset", HttpMethod.GET, authHeaders, String.class);
final ResponseEntity<RestResponsePage<ObservationSet>> result = restTemplate.exchange(base + "/api/v1/observationset", HttpMethod.GET, authHeaders,
responseType);
System.out.println(result.getBody());
assertSame(HttpStatus.OK, result.getStatusCode(), "incorrect status code");
}
RestRespongePage class
class RestResponsePage<T> extends PageImpl<T> {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 3248189030448292002L;
public RestResponsePage(List<T> content, Pageable pageable, long total) {
super(content, pageable, total);
}
public RestResponsePage(List<T> content) {
super(content);
}
public RestResponsePage() {
super(new ArrayList<T>());
}
}
```
Code is available on github --> https://github.com/OpenPCM/openpcm-server/blob/integration-test/src/test/java/org/openpcm/controller/ObservationSetControllerIntTest.java
The deserialization throws this error:
org.springframework.http.converter.HttpMessageConversionException: Type definition error: [simple type, class org.springframework.data.domain.Pageable]; nested exception is com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.exc.InvalidDefinitionException: Cannot construct instance of `org.springframework.data.domain.Pageable` (no Creators, like default construct, exist): abstract types either need to be mapped to concrete types, have custom deserializer, or contain additional type information

Solution
Found the answer in the different post on here. It was not the accepted answer which it should be
Spring RestTemplate with paginated API
the answer by @rvheddeg is correct. You just need to put @JsonCreator and provide a constructor with all the properties, here is my RestResponsePage class that fixes the issue.
class RestResponsePage<T> extends PageImpl<T> {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 3248189030448292002L;
@JsonCreator(mode = JsonCreator.Mode.PROPERTIES)
public RestResponsePage(@JsonProperty("content") List<T> content, @JsonProperty("number") int number, @JsonProperty("size") int size,
@JsonProperty("totalElements") Long totalElements, @JsonProperty("pageable") JsonNode pageable, @JsonProperty("last") boolean last,
@JsonProperty("totalPages") int totalPages, @JsonProperty("sort") JsonNode sort, @JsonProperty("first") boolean first,
@JsonProperty("numberOfElements") int numberOfElements) {
super(content, PageRequest.of(number, size), totalElements);
}
public RestResponsePage(List<T> content, Pageable pageable, long total) {
super(content, pageable, total);
}
public RestResponsePage(List<T> content) {
super(content);
}
public RestResponsePage() {
super(new ArrayList<T>());
}
}
