Class JsonAttributesSerializer

java.lang.Object

org.codehaus.jackson.map.JsonSerializer<List<NotificationAttribute>>

org.jasig.portlet.notice.JsonAttributesSerializer

public class JsonAttributesSerializer
extends org.codehaus.jackson.map.JsonSerializer<List<NotificationAttribute>>

Simplifies the JSON output of the custom attributes to a format that is easy for javascript to work with. Collapses to an object with a series of fields with an array of values; e.g.

 "attributes": [
     {
         "name": "category",
         "values": ["Academic"]
     },
     {
         "name": "department",
         "values": ["Physics and Astronomy", "Earth Sciences"]
     }
  ],

 becomes

 "attributes": {
     "category": ["Academic"],
     "department": ["Physics and Astronomy", "Earth Sciences"]
 },
