How to solve error Code 45 : serialize/deserialize LocalDate springboot using Json ObjectMapper

Question

Below is the error message I get :

com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonParseException: Unexpected character ('-' (code 45)): Expected space separating root-level values
 at [Source: (String)"2018-10-10"; line: 1, column: 6]

Below is my UPDATED code to read date from post man Json: { "modifiedDate":"2018-09-10"}

String modifiedDateJson = data.get("modifiedDate").asText();
        DateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");
        Date date = dateFormat.parse(modifiedDateJson);
        String output = dateFormat.format(date);


        Date modifiedDateDf = mapper.readValue(modifiedDateJson,Date.class);
        LocalDate modifiedDate = date.toInstant().atZone(ZoneId.systemDefault()).toLocalDate();

Does the error occur at the data.get or the mapper.readValue? — Any Moose, Sep 10 '18 at 17:41

You could try [this](https://www.baeldung.com/jackson-serialize-dates) (#11) `SimpleDateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd"); mapper.setDateFormat(df);` before `mapper.readValue()` — CodeMonkey, Sep 10 '18 at 17:54
