I am learning to create a rest api. Here is my MessageResource class:
@Path("/message")
@Produces({MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON, MediaType.APPLICATION_XML})
@Consumes({MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON, MediaType.APPLICATION_XML})
public class MessageResource {
private Map messages = Database.getMessages();
@GET
@Path("/all")
public List allMessages() {
return new ArrayList(messages.values());
}
//... some other stuff
}
Message class:
@XmlRootElement
public class Message {
private Integer id;
private String message;
private String author;
public Message() {}
public Message(Integer id, String message, String author) {
this.id = id;
this.message = message;
this.author = author;
}
public boolean isValidToAdd() {
if(Database.getMessages().containsKey(id) || id < 0) return false;
if(message.isEmpty()) return false;
if(author.isEmpty()) return false;
return true;
}
//getters and setters for "id", "message" and "author"
}
The problem is that the response generated by MessageResource.allMessages() contains a field validToAdd when the Accept header is application/json but does not show when Accept header is application/xml or text/xml. I have tried adding @XmlTransient and @JsonbTransient to Message.isValidToAdd() but it still shows up. Any suggestion on how to remove validToAdd key from json response?
