forEach will iterate over children of a JsonNode (converted to String when printed) and fieldNames() gets an Iterator<String> over keys. Here are some examples for printing elements of the example JSON:
JsonNode rootNode = mapper.readTree(option);
System.out.println("\nchoices:");
rootNode.path("choices").forEach(System.out::println);
System.out.println("\nAllKeys:");
rootNode.fieldNames().forEachRemaining(System.out::println);
System.out.println("\nChoiceSettings:");
rootNode.path("choiceSettings").fieldNames().forEachRemaining(System.out::println);
You'll probably need fields() at some point that returns an Iterator<Entry<String, JsonNode>> so you can iterate over key, value pairs.

This should do it.
Map<String, Object> treeMap = mapper.readValue(json, Map.class);
List<String> keys = Lists.newArrayList();
List<String> result = findKeys(treeMap, keys);
System.out.println(result);
private List<String> findKeys(Map<String, Object> treeMap , List<String> keys) {
treeMap.forEach((key, value) -> {
if (value instanceof LinkedHashMap) {
Map<String, Object> map = (LinkedHashMap) value;
findKeys(map, keys);
}
keys.add(key);
});
return keys;
}
This will print out result as
[required, requiredMsg, choices, exc, a, b, c, required, textbox, d, choiceSettings, type, Settings]
You can use elements() method and check if value key exist then add the value to list.
Smaple code
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
JsonNode jsonNode = mapper.readTree(data);
List<String> values = new ArrayList<>();
jsonNode.forEach(jsonObject -> jsonObject.elements().forEachRemaining(valueNode -> {
if(valueNode.has("value"))
values.add(valueNode.get("value").asText());
}));
System.out.println(values);
Output:

Here is the solution by "Josson & Jossons". I list 2 more examples with condition filtering.

JsonNode node = josson.getNode("*.value");
System.out.println("1.\n" + node.toPrettyString());
node = josson.getNode("~'^item.*'.value");

For Jackson 2+ (com.fasterxml.jackson), the methods are little bit different:
CopyIterator<Entry<String, JsonNode>> nodes = rootNode.get("foo").fields();
while (nodes.hasNext()) {
Map.Entry<String, JsonNode> entry = (Map.Entry<String, JsonNode>) nodes.next();
logger.info("key --> " + entry.getKey() + " value-->" + entry.getValue());
}
This answer applies to Jackson versions prior to 2+ (originally written for 1.8). See @SupunSameera's answer for a version that works with newer versions of Jackson.
The JSON terms for "node name" is "key." Since JsonNode#iterator()
does not include keys, you need to iterate differently:
Copyfor (Map.Entry<String, JsonNode> elt : rootNode.fields())
{
if ("foo".equals(elt.getKey()))
{
// bar
}
}
If you only need to see the keys, you can simplify things a bit with JsonNode#fieldNames():
Copyfor (String key : rootNode.fieldNames())
{
if ("foo".equals(key))
{
// bar
}
}
And if you just want to find the node with key "foo", you can access it directly. This will yield better performance (constant-time lookup) and cleaner/clearer code than using a loop:
CopyJsonNode foo = rootNode.get("foo");
if (foo != null)
{
// frob that widget
}
If you're trying to find a key which is placed inside nested object, you may use
findValue(String key) method which returns null if a value is not found by the given key:
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
JsonNode rootNode= mapper.readTree(json);
String[] keys = {
"id", "create_date", "versions_control_advanced", "name", "nofield"
};
for (String key : keys) {
JsonNode value = rootNode.findValue(key);
System.out.printf("Key %s exists? %s --> value=%s%n", key, value != null,
value == null ? null : value.asText());
}
Output:
Key id exists? true --> value=276625
Key create_date exists? true --> value=2020-06-22T16:19:07
Key versions_control_advanced exists? true --> value=false
Key name exists? true --> value=
Key nofield exists? false --> value=null
I think you are not bound to the has() method.
You can convert the json to a map and then find the node recursively
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
Map<String, Object> map = mapper.readValue( body, Map.class );
ArrayList<Object> container = new ArrayList<>();
boolean value = find( map, "id", container );
if( value )
{
System.out.println( container );
}
The recursive method should visit all the nodes and return soon as node is found
private static boolean find( Map<String, Object> map, String search, ArrayList<Object> container )
{
int i = 0;
for( String s : map.keySet() )
{
i++;
if( s.equals( search ) )
{
container.add( map.get( s ) );
return true;
}
if( map.get( s ) instanceof Map )
{
boolean found = find( (Map<String, Object>) map.get( s ), search, container );
if( i == map.size() || found )
{
return found;
}
}
}
return false;
}
I have edited the code to get the value also. hope this helps. I strongly suggest you to do more research on yourself before looking for help from the community.
