[FIXED] JsonMappingException: Can not find a deserializer for non-concrete Map type

Issue

    String str = commonClient.authorizedRequestBuilder(commonClient.webTarget
            .path("/apps/get_current_version/default/"+appName+"/"+appName)
            .queryParam("object_type", "app"))
            .accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_TYPE)
            .get()
            .readEntity(String.class);

i get

str = {"versions": {"ap": "Not Set", "am": "topic-test-publisher-1.0.16", "il": "topic-test-publisher-1.0.16", "row": "topic-test-publisher-1.0.49"}, "provider": "gce"}

Then i have changed to this code

    Version version = commonClient.authorizedRequestBuilder(commonClient.webTarget
            .path("/apps/get_current_version/default/"+appName+"/"+appName)
            .queryParam("object_type", "app"))
            .accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_TYPE)
            .get(ClientResponse.class)
            .readEntity(new GenericType<Version>(){});

and got an exception:

where:

@JsonIgnoreProperties(ignoreUnknown = true)
public class Version {
    @JsonProperty("am")
    public String am;
    @JsonProperty("row")
    public String row;

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return "VersionDto{" +
                "am='" + am + '\'' +
                ", row='" + row + '\'' +
                '}';
    }
}

How can i deserialize it differently?

UPDATE

I have tried:

with

public class Version {

    public Map<String, String> versions;

    public String provider;

    // getters, setters, etc
}

and

    Version version = commonClient.authorizedRequestBuilder(commonClient.webTarget
            .path("/apps/get_current_version/gce/waze-prod/default/"+appName+"/"+appName)
            .queryParam("object_type", "app"))
            .accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_TYPE)
            .get(ClientResponse.class)
            .readEntity(Version.class);

but got the same error

Solution

I would say the object Version need to have a field named versions of type Map<String, String> and another one named provider of type String, and you probably don't need the GenericType thing.

public class Version {

    private Map<String, String> versions;

    private String provider;

    // getters, setters, etc
}

then

Version version = commonClient.authorizedRequestBuilder(commonClient.webTarget)
            // ...
            .readEntity(Version.class);
version.getVersions().get("am"); // to get "am"

Tested with

import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Map;

public class Test {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        String str = "{\"versions\": {\"ap\": \"Not Set\", \"am\": \"topic-test-publisher-1.0.16\", \"il\": \"topic-test-publisher-1.0.16\", \"row\": \"topic-test-publisher-1.0.49\"}, \"provider\": \"gce\"}";
        ObjectMapper objectMapper = new ObjectMapper();
        Version v = objectMapper.readValue(str, Version.class);

        System.out.println(v.versions.get("am"));
    }

    public static class Version {
        public Map<String, String> versions;

        public String provider;
    }
}

Output: "topic-test-publisher-1.0.16"
