用于 DbGeography 的 JSON.Net JsonConverter

Question

为此奋斗了很久......

基本上我有一个具有DbGeography 属性的模型优先EF5 对象。我想申请一个JsonConverter，让它作为简单的纬度/经度值往返。我正在使用 WebAPI。

像这样寻找 JSON 输出和输入：

{
    "location":
    {
        "geopoint":
        {
            "latitude":40.770712,
            "longitude":-73.962011
        }
    }
}

这是我的类定义和 JsonConverter：

[MetadataType(typeof(QueryLocationMetadata))]
partial class Location
{
}

public class QueryLocationMetadata
{
    [JsonConverter(typeof(DbGeographyConverter))]
    public virtual DbGeography GeoPoint { get; set; }
}


public class DbGeographyConverter : JsonConverter
{
    private const string LATITUDE_KEY = "latitude";
    private const string LONGITUDE_KEY = "longitude";

    public override bool CanConvert(Type objectType)
    {
        return objectType.Equals(typeof(DbGeography));
    }

    public override object ReadJson(JsonReader reader, Type objectType, object existingValue, JsonSerializer serializer)
    {
        if (reader.TokenType == JsonToken.Null)
            return default(DbGeography);

        var jObject = JObject.Load(reader);

        if (!jObject.HasValues || (jObject.Property(LATITUDE_KEY) == null || jObject.Property(LONGITUDE_KEY) == null))
            return default(DbGeography);

        string wkt = string.Format("POINT({1} {0})", jObject[LATITUDE_KEY], jObject[LONGITUDE_KEY]);
        return DbGeography.FromText(wkt, DbGeography.DefaultCoordinateSystemId);
    }

    public override void WriteJson(JsonWriter writer, object value, JsonSerializer serializer)
    {
        var dbGeography = value as DbGeography;

        serializer.Serialize(writer, dbGeography == null || dbGeography.IsEmpty ? null : new { latitude = dbGeography.Latitude.Value, longitude = dbGeography.Longitude.Value });
    }
}

因此，使用它我能够成功地序列化甚至正确反序列化对象，但在我点击ApiController 操作之前，我收到以下错误：

在玩弄了各种各样的东西之后，我完全不知所措。我知道它通常是在尝试验证属性，但是是 SqlDouble？

Answer 1

Youssef 提到的错误已得到修复，但我在为DbGeography 创建自定义JsonConverter 时仍然遇到问题，因为在验证过程中的某处DefaultBodyModelValidator 陷入了循环。我的解决方案不是完全禁用模型验证，而是将默认验证器替换为从深度验证中排除 DbGeography 类型的派生验证器。

为了不重复我自己，you can see the full solution here.

Answer 2

问题不在于您的转换器。这是一个已知的验证错误，当公共属性的 getter 抛出对象图中时会发生这种错误。此工作项跟踪问题：

与此同时，您应该能够通过禁用验证来绕过它：

config.Services.Clear(typeof(ModelValidatorProvider));

很抱歉给您带来不便。
