Formatting LocalDate and LocalDateTime

[rclarke1]

Hi,
This looks like a great project.
Previously I was using @jsonformat to format dates when returning data through a controller.
How can I format a LocalDate to yyyy-mm-dd when returning an EntityView through a controller.
Thanks

Hey there. You can still use @JsonFormat if you like. Otherwise, you can also use the DateTimeFormatter API like this in your entity views:

@EntityView(MyEntity.class)
public interface MyEntityView {

    @Mapping("date")
    @JsonIgnore
    LocalDate getDateAsObject();

    default String getDate() {
        return DateTimeFormatter.ISO_LOCAL_DATE.format(getDateAsObject());
    }
}

Great thanks, putting @jsonformat on the EntityView Interface worked.
