Closed 3 years ago.
I already went through: Could not write JSON: Infinite recursion (StackOverflowError); nested exception spring boot & many links like this. I am using Spring Boot 2.1.6.RELEASE and Data JPA and Postgres example
This is my source code: https://github.com/JavaHelper/issue-jackson-boot
Error:
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.exc.InvalidDefinitionException: No serializer found for class org.hibernate.proxy.pojo.bytebuddy.ByteBuddyInterceptor and no properties discovered to create BeanSerializer (to avoid exception, disable SerializationFeature.FAIL_ON_EMPTY_BEANS) (through reference chain: org.springframework.data.domain.PageImpl["content"]->java.util.Collections$UnmodifiableRandomAccessList[0]->com.example.demo.entity.StockDailyRecord["stock"]->com.example.demo.entity.Stock$HibernateProxy$f8byIJ39["hibernateLazyInitializer"])

Answer 1

Not sure how this is working, but mixed of two things are working nicely. Took reference from here: Great Link
I added both #JsonIgnoreProperties({"hibernateLazyInitializer", "handler"}) and #JsonIgnore Can not preserve the Bidirectional-Relationships after deserialization.
Here is my class now
#Data
#NoArgsConstructor
#AllArgsConstructor
#EqualsAndHashCode(callSuper = true)
#Entity
#Table(name = "stock", uniqueConstraints = { #UniqueConstraint(columnNames = "STOCK_NAME"),
#UniqueConstraint(columnNames = "STOCK_CODE") })
#JsonIgnoreProperties({"hibernateLazyInitializer", "handler"})
public class Stock extends BaseEntity implements java.io.Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
#Id
#GeneratedValue(strategy = IDENTITY)
#Column(name = "STOCK_ID", unique = true, nullable = false)
private Integer stockId;
#Column(name = "STOCK_CODE", unique = true, nullable = false, length = 10)
private String stockCode;
#Column(name = "STOCK_NAME", unique = true, nullable = false, length = 20)
private String stockName;
#OneToMany(fetch = FetchType.LAZY, mappedBy = "stock")
#JsonIgnore
private Set<StockDailyRecord> stockDailyRecords = new HashSet<>(0);
#Builder(builderMethodName = "sBuilder")
public Stock(Integer stockId, String stockCode, String stockName, Set<StockDailyRecord> stockDailyRecords,
Instant createdDate, Instant lastUpdateDate, String createUser, String lastUpdateUser) {
super(createdDate, lastUpdateDate, createUser, lastUpdateUser);
this.stockId = stockId;
this.stockCode = stockCode;
this.stockName = stockName;
this.stockDailyRecords = stockDailyRecords;
}
}
Note: Since it's #ManyToOne Relationship, so we cant not excepts StockDailyRecord from Stock, it will always be like getting Stock data from StockDailyRecord

This is great: My Here

Answer 2

You might ignore properties hibernateLazyInitializer and handler, well this issue is when you have entities that are loaded lazily before the serialization then the entities get loaded fully. Put on the head of class that causes this issue.
#JsonIgnoreProperties({"hibernateLazyInitializer", "handler"})
