Interface JsonView<T>

All Known Subinterfaces:
JsonType<T>
public interface JsonView<T>
Represents a subset of properties that can be written as json.

We can use a "view DSL" to dynamically define which properties to include in the json view.

Examples of json view DSL: 



   // only include the id and name properties
   (id, name)

   // include billAddress which is a nested type
   (id, name, billingAddress(street, suburb))

   // include billAddress with all it's properties
   (id, name, billingAddress(*))

   (id, name, billingAddress(street, suburb), shippingAddress(*), contacts(email,lastName, firstName))
