Gson: SerializedName should allow multiple names to be matched to a single name for input

@inder123 @ikkyu0319 Do you mean something like this (this isn't available yet) ?

@SerializedName({"name", "firstName", "userName"})
public String name;

@SerializedName("id")
public String id;

where the idea is to re-use a model for multiple API endpoints but the attribute returned has a different name?

[ikkyu0319]

Yes~ I need this~~ @JakeWharton @inder123 @fahimk

[inder123]

To maintain backward compatibility, I revised it to:

@SerializedName(value="default_name", alternate={"name", "firstName", "userName"})
public String name;

Let me know if you see a problem with this.

[JakeWharton]

This shipped in 2.4

[fahimk]

@inder123 this is great, thanks for working on it.

[inder123]

@fahimk great. Looking forward to learning how it worked for you.

How can i use this in kotlin ?
@SerializedName(value="name", alternate={"person", "user"})
this gives me unexpected token error

[JakeWharton]

Use arrayOf

yes found it thanks

[iballan]

Can we let the alternative or on of the alternatives get chosen when serializing object that will be sent to server ?

[sivabe35]

For Kotlin @SerializedName(value="firstName", alternate= ["userName"])

[sunil965]

I am trying this, but it's not working.
@SerializedName(value = "text", alternate = {"text", "image", "document", "voice", "audio", "video", "location", "contacts"})
private String content;

@inder123, any suggestion ?

[akinsete]

@sunil965 alternate should be an array not object.
