Deserializer
Converts a textual representation in a given mimeType (e.g. JSON, YAML, XML) back into values of type T. This is the counterpart of Serializer, used e.g. to load a value that was previously persisted to disk or received over a network.
A typical implementation first parses the input string into a plain object tree using a format-specific reader (e.g. a Jackson ObjectMapper on the JVM), then converts that tree into a T via a Deobjectifier.
Type Parameters
T
the type of values this deserializer can produce.
