Thanks Andrea,
Our team is developing and patching geotools, I don’t think we have tried
Geoserver yet – will se how much is involved to get this done.
Thanks,
M.

Subject: Re: [Geoserver-users] JSON output including key = null values option?

Dear Geoserver users/developers.
We are using the Geoserver JSON output for data interchange. I was wondering
whether it is possible to configure geoserver in a manner that would enable the
outputting of ALL the keys received from the schema. The current behaviour we
are observing is the ( more common) JSON behaviour that null values are
dropped. We are reconstructing FeatureCollections from the JSONs and missing
keys ( reflecting null values in the DB) are causing us problems.
Yes, either a format_option could be exposed to control that
(http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/services/wfs/vendor.html#format-options),
or a server side setting.
What I am after is the exposure of the Geotools FeatureJSON parameter ( I
assume that this is the lib used for serialising to JSON)
http://docs.geotools.org/stable/javadocs/org/geotools/geojson/feature/FeatureJSON.html#isEncodeNullValues%28%29
isEncodeNulllValues to true….
Is this possible/exposable in the next release/
Even if you gave us a patch today with the changes and a test that proves it's
working, it would be impossible
to have it by the next release, as new features have to stay a month in the
development branch, and then need
a positive vote from the PSC to be backported.
So the full drill is, discuss the new option on geoserver-devel (checking for
feebdack), code the
change, make a pull request for master, then after a month ask for a vote to
backport.
Or find someone to do this on your behalf.
Cheers
Andrea
