Im using Jackson to convert a POJO into a JSON to store in the DB. However I have a getter that I want to ignore. I have see a lot of info relating to @JsonIgnoreProperties but I can't seem to make any progress with it. I basically want the equivalent of @Transient.
Basic usecase (I want to ignore the InternationalNumber):
public class PhoneNumber { private String country; private String number; public PhoneNumber() {} public String getCountry() { return country; } public String getLocalNumber() { return localNumber; } public String getInternationalNumber() { String result = "Not Available"; if (country != null && localNumber != null) { result = new PhoneNumberHandler().internationalFormat( localNumber, WorldCountries.countryToIso2Code(country)); } return result; } }

The Jackson @JsonIgnore annotation can be used to ignore a certain property or field of a Java object. The property can be ignored both when reading JSON into Java objects and when writing Java objects into JSON.
Ignore All Fields by Type Finally, we can ignore all fields of a specified type, using the @JsonIgnoreType annotation. If we control the type, then we can annotate the class directly: @JsonIgnoreType public class SomeType { ... } More often than not, however, we don't have control of the class itself.
To ignore individual properties, use the [JsonIgnore] attribute. You can specify conditional exclusion by setting the [JsonIgnore] attribute's Condition property. The JsonIgnoreCondition enum provides the following options: Always - The property is always ignored.
If there are fields in Java objects that do not wish to be serialized, we can use the @JsonIgnore annotation in the Jackson library. The @JsonIgnore can be used at the field level, for ignoring fields during the serialization and deserialization.
That would be @JsonIgnore on getter method.
