How to parse a JSON string into JsonNode in Jackson?

May 22, 2022 by IT Nursery

It should be so simple, but I just cannot find it after being trying for an hour.

I need to get a JSON string, for example, {"k1":v1,"k2":v2}, parsed as a JsonNode.

JsonFactory factory = new JsonFactory();
JsonParser jp = factory.createJsonParser("{\"k1\":\"v1\"}");
JsonNode actualObj = jp.readValueAsTree();

gives

java.lang.IllegalStateException: No ObjectCodec defined for the parser, can not deserialize JSON into JsonNode tree
