Dropwizard. Send Json and make jersey + jackson recognize class

Question

i am farley new to jackson and jersey. Have done some programs that uses those libraries. But i have a problem that i cant find a solution for.

  @POST
  @Path("/submit")
  @Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
  public void submitTicket(Ticket ticket)
  {
    System.out.println("*** SUBMIT A NEW TICKET ***");
    System.out.println("Ticket: " + ticket);
  }

This is in my ticketResource class. I am trying to send json from my webapplication to the server. But i only get error's when trying.

    $('#newTicketSubmit').click(function () {
    var jsonData = [
       {'topic':$('#inputTopic').val()},
       {'priority':$('#inputPriority option:selected').val()},
       {'assigned':$('#inputAssign option:selected').val()},
       {'text':$('#inputText').val()},
       {'solved':0},
       {'date':'No date set'}
    ];




    $.ajax({
        type: 'POST',
        url: '/ticket/submit',
        // The key needs to match your method's input parameter (case-sensitive).
        data: JSON.stringify(jsonData),
        processData: false,
        contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',
        success: function(data){alert(data);},
        failure: function(errMsg) {
            alert(errMsg);
        }
    });
  });

This is how my javascript file looks like. It does call the server. But i am not 100% sure if i am doing everything correctly

public class Ticket {

  public Ticket()
  {
    /* Empty */
  }


  @Id
  @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
  @JsonProperty
  private int id;

  @NotEmpty
  @JsonProperty
  private String topic;

  @NotEmpty
  @JsonProperty
  private String text;

  @NotNull
  @JsonProperty
  private int solved;

  @NotNull
  @JsonProperty
  private int priority;

  @NotNull
  @JsonProperty
  private int assigned;

  @NotEmpty
  @JsonProperty
  private String date;

And lastly here is a snipped of my Ticket class What i want my project to understand is that when i send something from the javascript app. Then the server would understand how to create a Ticket class from that json data. If i understand everything correctly. That should be possible. But i am doing something wrong somehow.

Any help that could take me on the right path is more than welcome

Answer 1

Ok so i found a solution for my problem yesterday. The problem was my implementation of the Json data

   var jsonData = {
     'topic':$('#inputTopic').val(),
     'priority':parseInt($('#inputPriority option:selected').val()),
     'assigned':parseInt($('#inputAssign option:selected').val()),
     'text':$('#inputText').val(),
     'solved':0,
     'date':'No date set'
  };

This is a example of a working Json data in javascript.
