Usage

DateTime in Dtos

The parser is auto-configured for the default Spring Boot 2 Jackson ObjectMapper.

data class Dto (
    private val createdAt: Instant
)

@RequestMapping(value = ["/my-service/create"], method = [RequestMethod.PUT])
fun createDto(@RequestBody dto: Dto) {
    println(dto.createdAt)
}

RequestParam

When parsing date time as RequestParam, you need to use @IsoDateTime explicitly.

@RequestMapping(value = ["/my-service/since"], method = [RequestMethod.GET])
fun findEntitiesSince(
    @IsoDateTime since: Instant
) {
    println(since)
}
