How to read a JSON file and map it to the sling model

Question

I am having a JSON model locally and I want that JSON data into my sling model and upon request to that sling model it should send the whole JSON data to my sightly. But I am unable to get the data in the sightly.

@Model(adaptables = SlingHttpServletRequest.class, defaultInjectionStrategy = DefaultInjectionStrategy.OPTIONAL)
public class ProductsModel {
    static final Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(ProductsModel.class);

    public List<Product> getProducts() {
        ObjectMapper objectMapper = new ObjectMapper();

        File jsonFile = new File("absolute path of the json file");
        List<Product> products = null;
        try {
            products = objectMapper.readerForListOf(Product.class).readValue(jsonFile);
        } catch (IOException e) {
            log.info(e.getMessage());
        }

        return products;
    }
}

Here is my Product class

class Product {

    @JsonProperty("image")
    private String image;

    @JsonProperty("title")
    private String title;

    @JsonProperty("description")
    private String description;

    public String getImage() {
        return image;
    }

    public String getTitle() {
        return title;
    }

    public String getDescription() {
        return description;
    }
}

And here is my HTL code to get the products

<div data-sly-use.model="com.adobe.aem.core.models.ProductsModel">
    <div data-sly-list.products="${model.products}">
        ${products.title}
    </div>
</div>

So my output is just blank, not showing anything...please help...

${products.title}

did you get the json into the File object? If the about solution doesn't work you can try the following as well

import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.type.CollectionType;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.type.TypeFactory;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.JsonNode;
import org.osgi.framework.FrameworkUtil;

// Assuming you have the ObjectMapper instance ready.
ObjectMapper objectMapper = new ObjectMapper();

// Load the JSON file directly into a JsonNode
JsonNode jsonNode = objectMapper.readTree(FrameworkUtil.getBundle(ProductsModel.class)
        .getBundleContext()
        .getBundle()
        .getResource("somedata.json"));

// Use Jackson's TypeFactory to create a collection type
// org.osgi.framework.FrameworkUtil;
TypeFactory typeFactory = objectMapper.getTypeFactory();
CollectionType productListType = typeFactory.constructCollectionType(List.class, Product.class);

// Deserialize the JsonNode into a list of Product objects
List<Product> productObjectList = objectMapper.convertValue(jsonNode, productListType);

See if this one works..

You can try this: putting the file in the resources folder

File file = new File(
        this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("someName.json").getFile()
);

then you can map the json file into the Object:

ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
SomeClass someClassObj = mapper.readValue(file, SomeClass.class);
