             Summary: Change date formats for JSON representations used in the REST API
                 Key: DROOLS-1053
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/DROOLS-1053
             Project: Drools
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: kie server
    Affects Versions: 6.3.0.Final
         Environment: jBPM 6.3 running on Wildfly 8.2
            Reporter: William Siqueira
            Assignee: Edson Tirelli


The format for dates are are using milliseconds form, for example:


{code:javascript}
{
    "request-instance-id" : 4,
    "request-status" : "QUEUED",
    "request-message" : "Ready to execute",
    "request-retries" : 3,
    "request-executions" : 0,
    "request-command" : "org.jbpm.executor.commands.PrintOutCommand",
    "request-scheduled-date" : 1455069600000
  }
{code}
The problem with this format is that it is not readable and might confuse users using other ways to communicate with the kie server than using its REST API.

The suggested solution is use a Jackson object mapper to configure the desired date format. This is better explained in this article:
