I don't deserialize java 8 date/time type `java.time.Instant`

[benjessie25]

com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.exc.InvalidDefinitionException: Java 8 date/time type java.time.Instant not supported by default: add Module "com.fasterxml.jackson.datatype:jackson-datatype-jsr310" to enable handling

Yes, if you have that type somewhere in your class definitions, you need to either add the module, or add something else to handle it (custom (de)serializer), or mark as "ignored type". Something like:

        mapper.configOverride(Instant.class).setIsIgnoredType(true);

which would then ignore all properties with declared type of Instant.

I hope this helps!
