Note that the method annotated with `@FromJson` does not need to take a String as an argument. Rather it can take
input of any type and Moshi will first parse the JSON to an object of that type and then use the `@FromJson`
method to produce the desired final value. Conversely, the method annotated with `@ToJson` does not have to produce
a String.
Assume, for example, that we have to parse a JSON in which the date and time of an event are represented as two
separate strings.
```json
{
"title": "Blackjack tournament",
"begin_date": "20151010",
"begin_time": "17:04"
}
```
We would like to combine these two fields into one string to facilitate the date parsing at a
later point. That is, while the `EventJson` class corresponds to the JSON structure directly, we would rather
have an `Event` that looks like below (while we are at it, we are also changing the variable names to
CamelCase).
```java
class EventJson {
String title;
String begin_date;
String begin_time;
}
class Event {
String title;
String beginDateAndTime;
}
```
To enable Moshi to do that transformation automatically we define a class with the `@FromJson`
(and `@ToJson`) methods:
```java
class EventJsonAdapter {
@FromJson
Event eventFromJson(EventJson eventJson) {
Event event = new Event();
event.title = eventJson.title;
event.beginDateAndTime = eventJson.begin_date + " " + eventJson.begin_time;
return event;
}
@ToJson
EventJson eventToJson(Event event) {
EventJson json = new EventJson();
json.title = event.title;
json.begin_date = event.beginDateAndTime.substring(0, 8);
json.begin_time = event.beginDateAndTime.substring(9, 14);
return json;
}
}
```
And register it with Moshi.
```java
Moshi moshi = new Moshi.Builder()
.add(new EventJsonAdapter())
.build();
```
We can now use Moshi to parse the JSON directly to an `Event`.
```java
JsonAdapter<Event> jsonAdapter = moshi.adapter(Event.class);
Event event = jsonAdapter.fromJson(json);
```
### Fails Gracefully
Automatic databinding almost feels like magic. But unlike the black magic that typically accompanies
