How to tell Jackson to ignore a field during serialization if its value is null?

Question

How can Jackson be configured to ignore a field value during serialization if that field\'s value is null.

For example:

public class SomeClass {
            


        

Answer 1

Case one

@JsonInclude(JsonInclude.Include.NON_NULL)
private String someString;

Case two

@JsonInclude(JsonInclude.Include.NON_EMPTY)
private String someString;

If someString is null, it will be ignored on both of cases. If someString is "" it just only be ignored on case two.

The same for List = null or List.size() = 0
