以下是创建帐户的课程:
class Account private(private var json: JsValue) {
  private def setValue(key: JsPath, value: JsValue) = {
    value match {
      case JsNull => json.transform(key.json.prune).map(t => json = t)
      case _ => json.transform((__.json.update(key.json.put(value)))).map(t => json = t)
    }
 }
  def asJson = json
  def id_= (v: Option[String]) = setValue((__ \ 'id), Json.toJson(v))
  def id = json as (__ \ 'id).readNullable[String]
  def name = json as (__ \ 'name).read[String]
  def name_= (v: String) = setValue((__ \ 'name), Json.toJson(v))
  def ownerId = json as (__ \ 'ownerId).read[String]
  def ownerId_= (v: String) = setValue((__ \ 'ownerId), Json.toJson(v))
  def openingTime = json as (__ \ 'openingTime).read[LocalDateTime]
  def openingTime_= (v: LocalDateTime) = setValue((__ \ 'openingTime), Json.toJson(v))
  def closingTime = json as (__ \ 'closingTime).readNullable[LocalDateTime]
  def closingTime_= (v: Option[LocalDateTime]) = setValue((__ \ 'closingTime),    Json.toJson(v))
  def copy(json: JsValue) = Account(this.json.as[JsObject] ++ json.as[JsObject]).get
}
object Account {
  val emptyObj = __.json.put(Json.obj())
  def apply(json: JsValue): JsResult[Account] = {
    validateAccount.reads(json).fold(
      valid = { validated => JsSuccess(new Account(validated)) },
      invalid = { errors => JsError(errors) }
    )
  }
  def apply(
    id: Option[String],
    name: String,
    ownerId: String,
    openingTime: LocalDateTime,
    closingTime: Option[LocalDateTime]
  ): JsResult[Account] = apply(Json.obj(
    "id" -> id,
    "name" -> name,
    "ownerId" -> ownerId,
    "openingTime" -> openingTime,
    "closingTime" -> closingTime
  ))
  def unapply(account: Account) = {
    if (account eq null) None
    else Some((
      account.id,
      account.name,
      account.ownerId,
      account.openingTime,
      account.closingTime
    ))
  }
  implicit val accountFormat = new Format[Account] {
    def reads(json: JsValue) = Account(json)
    def writes(account: Account) = account.json
  }
  /**
    * Validates the JSON representation of an [[Account]].
    */
  private[auth] val validateAccount = (
    ((__ \ 'id).json.pickBranch or emptyObj) ~
    ((__ \ 'name).json.pickBranch) ~
    ((__ \ 'ownerId).json.pickBranch) ~
    ((__ \ 'openingTime).json.pickBranch) ~
    ((__ \ 'closingTime).json.pickBranch or emptyObj)
  ).reduce
}
如您所见,有些字段是可选的,如 id 和 closingTime。如果是可选字段 None, apply 上面的方法产生以下JSON:
{
  "id" : null,
  "name" : "Default",
  "ownerId" : "52dfc13ec20900c2093155cf",
  "openingTime" : "2014-02-02T19:22:54.708",
  "closingTime" : null
}
即使这可能是正确的,它也不是我想要的。例如,如果可选字段是 None,我需要获得以下JSON:
{
  "name" : "Default",
  "ownerId" : "52dfc13ec20900c2093155cf",
  "openingTime" : "2014-02-02T19:22:54.708",
}
话虽如此,我该如何预防 apply 从生成 null 字段?我要换掉 Json.obj(...) 有这样的东西?
JsObject(
  Seq() ++ (if (id.isDefined) Seq("id" -> JsString(id.get)) else Seq()
  ) ++ Seq(
    "name" -> JsString(name),
    "ownerId" -> JsString(ownerId),
    "openingTime" -> Json.toJson(openingTime)
  ) ++ (if (closingTime.isDefined) Seq("closingTime" -> Json.toJson(closingTime)) else Seq()
))
有没有更好的办法?
