Save LocaTime via SpringData to MongoDB

Question

I try to save a LocalTime (joda) field to the MongoDB with SpringData using spring-boot-starter-parent (org.springframework.boot 1.2.3.RELEASE) and get a StackOverflowError.

The StackOverflowError is in BeanWrapper in the method

public <S> S getProperty(PersistentProperty<?> property, Class<? extends S> type)

Stacktrace:

Adding these two Converters to the CustomConversions fix the problem.

@Configuration
public class MongoConfiguration extends AbstractMongoConfiguration {
    @Override
    protected String getDatabaseName() {
        return "databasename";
    }

    @Override
    public Mongo mongo() throws Exception {
        return new MongoClient("localhost");
    }

    @Override
    public CustomConversions customConversions() {
        List<Converter<?, ?>> converters = new ArrayList<>();
        converters.add(new LocalTimeToStringConverter());
        converters.add(new StringToLocalTimeConverter());
        return new CustomConversions(converters);
    }

}

public class LocalTimeToStringConverter implements Converter<LocalTime, String> {
    @Override
    public String convert(LocalTime localTime) {
        return localTime.toString();
    }
}



public class StringToLocalTimeConverter implements Converter<String, LocalTime> {
    @Override
    public LocalTime convert(String s) {
        return LocalTime.parse(s);
    }
}
