Description
Hi Team,
Hope it is a simple request.
Can we add a static factory method for creating instances of JacksonJsonRedisSerializer in V 4.0?
Example:
JacksonJsonRedisSerializer<Person> serializer = JacksonJsonRedisSerializer.of(Person.class);
Alternatively, a static helper under RedisSerializer would be even better.
static <T> RedisSerializer<T> json(Class<T> type) {
return new JacksonJsonRedisSerializer<>(type);
}
RedisSerializer<Person> serializer = RedisSerializer.json(Person.class);
That would greatly simplify typical RedisTemplate setup code and make examples cleaner for both documentation and developer experience.
Adding a factory method improves readability and aligns with modern Java API design conventions.
