"Unparseable date: 1302828677828" trying to deserialize with Gson a millisecond-format date received from server
After 4 hours non-stop trying to resolve the problem I have d开发者_高级运维ecided to ask here if someone could help me.
The problem is that my Android client when tries to deserialize the data received from a server throw the "Unparseable: 1302828677828" exception.
I would like to know if it is possible to deserialize a millisecond-format date using Gson.

Finally I got the solution:
// Creates the json object which will manage the information received GsonBuilder builder = new GsonBuilder(); // Register an adapter to manage the date types as long values builder.registerTypeAdapter(Date.class, new JsonDeserializer<Date>() { public Date deserialize(JsonElement json, Type typeOfT, JsonDeserializationContext context) throws JsonParseException { return new Date(json.getAsJsonPrimitive().getAsLong()); } }); Gson gson = builder.create();
I wrote an ImprovedDateTypeAdapter based on GSON default DateTypeAdapter that supports default dates format and the timestamp (long) format.

return typeAdapter;
}
};
private final DateFormat enUsFormat;
private final DateFormat localFormat;
private final DateFormat iso8601Format;
public ImprovedDateTypeAdapter() {
this.enUsFormat = DateFormat.getDateTimeInstance(2, 2, Locale.US);
this.localFormat = DateFormat.getDateTimeInstance(2, 2);
this.iso8601Format = buildIso8601Format();
}
private static DateFormat buildIso8601Format() {
DateFormat iso8601Format = new SimpleDateFormat(
"yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss'Z'", Locale.US);
iso8601Format.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("UTC"));
return iso8601Format;
}
public Date read(JsonReader in) throws IOException {
if (in.peek() == JsonToken.NULL) {
in.nextNull();
return null;
}
return deserializeToDate(in.nextString());
}
private synchronized Date deserializeToDate(String json) {
try {
return new Date(Long.parseLong(json));
} catch (Exception e) {
try {
return this.localFormat.parse(json);
} catch (ParseException e1) {
try {
return this.enUsFormat.parse(json);
} catch (ParseException e2) {
try {
return this.iso8601Format.parse(json);

throw new JsonSyntaxException(json, e3);
}
}
}
}
}
public synchronized void write(JsonWriter out, Date value)
throws IOException {
if (value == null) {
out.nullValue();
return;
}
String dateFormatAsString = this.enUsFormat.format(value);
out.value(dateFormatAsString);
}
}
To use it:
// Creates the json object which will manage the information received
GsonBuilder builder = new GsonBuilder();
// Register an adapter to manage the date types as long values
builder.registerTypeAdapter(Date.class, new ImprovedDateTypeAdapter());
Gson gson = builder.create();
JsonSerializer<Date> serializer= new JsonSerializer<Date>() {
@Override
public JsonElement serialize(Date src, Type typeOfSrc, JsonSerializationContext
context) {
return src == null ? null : new JsonPrimitive(src.getTime());
}
};
JsonDeserializer<Date> deserializer= new JsonDeserializer<Date>() {
@Override
public Date deserialize(JsonElement json, Type typeOfT,
JsonDeserializationContext context) throws JsonParseException {
return json == null ? null : new Date(json.getAsLong());
}
};
Gson gson = new GsonBuilder()
.registerTypeAdapter(Date.class, serializer)
.registerTypeAdapter(Date.class, deserializer).create();
Use below snippet for converting milliseconds to Date while processing JSON.
GsonBuilder gsonBuilder = new GsonBuilder();
// Adapter to convert long values to date types
gsonBuilder.registerTypeAdapter(Date.class, new JsonDeserializer<Date>() {
public Date deserialize(JsonElement jsonElement, Type typeOfObj, JsonDeserializationContext context)
throws JsonParseException {
//Converting milliseconds to current Date. (instead of 1970)
return new Date(jsonElement.getAsLong() * 1000);
}
});
Gson gson = gsonBuilder.setPrettyPrinting().create();
I have the same problem when I tried to deserialize DateTime field with Rest client of Android annotations library. As a solution I've created custom GsonHttpMessageConverter
public class CustomGsonHttpMessageConverter extends GsonHttpMessageConverter {
public CustomGsonHttpMessageConverter() {
// Creates the json object which will manage the information received
GsonBuilder builder = new GsonBuilder();
// Register an adapter to manage the date types as long values
builder.registerTypeAdapter(Date.class, new JsonDeserializer<Date>() {
public Date deserialize(JsonElement json, Type typeOfT, JsonDeserializationContext context) throws JsonParseException {
return new Date(json.getAsJsonPrimitive().getAsLong());
}
});
setGson(builder.create());
}
}
and define it in rest client
@Rest(rootUrl = "http://192.168.1.1:8080", converters = {CustomGsonHttpMessageConverter.class})
public interface RestClient extends RestClientErrorHandling {
...
I hope it will be helpful
For some reason I had compilation errors in Intellij with the above code using an anonymous class; a lambda worked for me:
private static Gson buildGson(){
// Deserialize longs as Dates
final JsonDeserializer<Date> dateDeserializer = (json, type, context) -> json == null ? null : new Date(json.getAsLong());
return new GsonBuilder().registerTypeAdapter(Date.class, dateDeserializer).create();
}
import com.google.gson.Gson;
import com.google.gson.GsonBuilder;
import com.google.gson.JsonDeserializer;
import java.sql.Timestamp;
Gson gson = new GsonBuilder().registerTypeAdapter(Timestamp.class, (JsonDeserializer) (json, typeOfT, context) -> {
return new Timestamp(json.getAsLong());
}).create();
