Using spring configuration to read data from json into spring bean it works for simple type but i am getting the above error when try to read an array This is my config
@Bean
Container container() throws IOException {
ObjectMapper objectMapper = new ObjectMapper();
return objectMapper.readValue(getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("book.json"), Container.class);
}
I have decided to put in a container as suggested so its ok to have my config look like this ? As i will be using these data to create Some spring controllers. POJO CLASS
public class Container {
String requestedUrl;
List<Item> items;}
This is the json data ,
{
"requestedUrl": "https://www.googleapis.com/books/v1/volumes?q=java&maxResults=40",
"items": [
{
"kind": "books#volume",
"id": "7tkN1CYzn2cC",

],

},

}, //Shortened for brevity
How can edit the config to get it work

You are passing the json object which is bounded by {} but trying to convert it to array. With this json you should convert to another class like
public class Container {
private String requestedUrl;
private List<Item> items;
// getters/setters
}
