使用Json.Net的多态JSON反序列化失败

Question

我正在尝试使用自定义将一些JSON反序列化为各种子类 JsonConverter

我几乎遵循了这一点。

我的抽象基类：

abstract class MenuItem
{
    public String Title { get; set; }
    public String Contents { get; set; }
    public List<MenuItem> Submenus { get; set; }
    public String Source { get; set; }
    public String SourceType { get; set; }
    public abstract void DisplayContents();
}

而我的派生JsonConverter：

class MenuItemConverter : JsonConverter
    {
        public override bool CanConvert(Type objectType)
        {
            return typeof(MenuItem).IsAssignableFrom(objectType);
        }

        public override object ReadJson(JsonReader reader, Type objectType, object existingValue, JsonSerializer serializer)
        {
            JObject item = JObject.Load(reader);
            switch (item["SourceType"].Value<String>())
            {
                case SourceType.File:    return item.ToObject<Menu.FileMenu>();
                case SourceType.Folder:  return item.ToObject<Menu.FolderMenu>();
                case SourceType.Json:    return item.ToObject<Menu.JsonMenu>();
                case SourceType.RestGet: return item.ToObject<Menu.RestMenu>();
                case SourceType.Rss:     return item.ToObject<Menu.RssMenu>();
                case SourceType.Text:    return item.ToObject<Menu.TextMenu>();
                case SourceType.Url:     return item.ToObject<Menu.UrlMenu>();
                default: throw new ArgumentException("Invalid source type");
            }
        }

        public override void WriteJson(JsonWriter writer, object value, JsonSerializer serializer)
        {
            throw new NotImplementedException();
        }
    }

SourceType 只是一个包含一些字符串常量的静态类。

JSON文件反序列化如下：

JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<MenuItem>(File.ReadAllText(menuPath), new MenuItemConverter());

现在，我的问题是，每当我运行代码时，都会出现以下错误：

An exception of type 'Newtonsoft.Json.JsonSerializationException' occurred in Newtonsoft.Json.dll but was not handled in user code

Additional information: Could not create an instance of type ConsoleMenu.Model.MenuItem. Type is an interface or abstract class and cannot be instantiated. Path 'Submenus[0].Title', line 5, position 21.

有问题的Json文件如下所示：

{
    "Title": "Main Menu",
    "Submenus": [
        {
            "Title": "Submenu 1",
            "Contents": "This is an example of the first sub-menu",
            "SourceType": "Text"
        },
        {
            "Title": "Submenu 2",
            "Contents": "This is the second sub-menu",
            "SourceType": "Text"
        },
        {
            "Title": "GitHub System Status",
            "Contents": "{\"status\":\"ERROR\",\"body\":\"If you see this, the data failed to load\"}",
            "Source": "https://status.github.com/api/last-message.json",
            "SourceType": "RestGet"
        },
        {
            "Title": "TF2 Blog RSS",
            "Contents": "If you see this message, an error has occurred",
            "Source": "http://www.teamfortress.com/rss.xml",
            "SourceType": "Rss"
        },
        {
            "Title": "Submenus Test",
            "Contents": "Testing the submenu functionality",
            "Submenus": [
                {
                    "Title": "Submenu 1",
                    "Contents": "This is an example of the first sub-menu",
                    "SourceType": "Text"
                },
                {
                    "Title": "Submenu 2",
                    "Contents": "This is the second sub-menu",
                    "SourceType": "Text"
                }
            ]
        }
    ],
    "SourceType": "Text"
}

在我看来，反序列化嵌套对象有麻烦，我该如何解决？

Answer 1

首先，SourceType错过了您的json中的菜单项“ Submenus Test”。

其次，您不应该仅仅ToObject因为该Submenus属性而使用它，而应该以递归方式对其进行处理。

以下ReadJson将起作用：

public override object ReadJson(JsonReader reader, Type objectType, object existingValue, JsonSerializer serializer)
{
    var jObject = JObject.Load(reader);
    var sourceType = jObject["SourceType"].Value<string>();

    object target = null;

    switch (sourceType)
    {
        case SourceType.File: 
            target = new FileMenu(); break;
        case SourceType.Folder: 
            target = new FolderMenu(); break;
        case SourceType.Json: 
            target = new JsonMenu(); break;
        case SourceType.RestGet: 
            target = new RestMenu(); break;
        case SourceType.Rss: 
            target = new RssMenu(); break;
        case SourceType.Text: 
            target = new TextMenu(); break;
        case SourceType.Url: 
            target = new UrlMenu(); break;
        default: 
            throw new ArgumentException("Invalid source type");
    }

    serializer.Populate(jObject.CreateReader(), target);

    return target;
}
