SerializersModuleCollector

SerializersModuleCollector can introspect and accumulate content of any SerializersModule via SerializersModule.dumpTo, using a visitor-like pattern: contextual and polymorphic functions are invoked for each registered serializer.

Not stable for inheritance

SerializersModuleCollector interface is not stable for inheritance in 3rd party libraries, as new methods might be added to this interface or contracts of the existing methods can be changed.

Functions

contextual

abstract fun <T : Any> contextual(kClass: KClass<T>, provider: (typeArgumentsSerializers: List<KSerializer<*>>) -> KSerializer<*>)

Accept a provider, associated with generic kClass for contextual serialization.

open fun <T : Any> contextual(kClass: KClass<T>, serializer: KSerializer<T>)

Accept a serializer, associated with kClass for contextual serialization.

polymorphic

abstract fun <Base : Any, Sub : Base> polymorphic(baseClass: KClass<Base>, actualClass: KClass<Sub>, actualSerializer: KSerializer<Sub>)

Accept a serializer, associated with actualClass for polymorphic serialization.

polymorphicDefault

abstract fun <Base : Any> polymorphicDefault(baseClass: KClass<Base>, defaultSerializerProvider: (className: String?) -> DeserializationStrategy<out Base>?)

Accept a default serializer provider, associated with the baseClass for polymorphic serialization.
