I have the following

"classificationItems": [
            {
                "classificationItem": {
                    "classificationItemId": {
                        "guid": "DAA21B11-88B9-4897-A12E-44CD2E3D07CD"
                    },
                    "id": "Site",
                    "name": "",
                    "description": "",
                    "children": [
                        {
                            "classificationItem": {
                                ...
                            }
                        },
                        ...
                    ]
                }
            },
            ...
        ]

where classificationItems is a list of ClassificationItem wrappers
I'd like to get rid of that wrapper and have classicationItems a direct list of `ClassificationItems`(and so the children), so I created my own DeserializationStrategy
However I'd still like to avoid manual job and take advantage of automatic parsing when it comes to the classificationItem object/class, how can I do that?

my serializer so far

val d = object : DeserializationStrategy<Array<ClassificationItem>> {
            override val descriptor: SerialDescriptor = listSerialDescriptor<ClassificationItem>()
            override fun deserialize(decoder: Decoder): Array<ClassificationItem> =
                decoder.decodeStructure(descriptor) {
                    TODO()
                }
        }

I can see the values in decoder, but I have no idea how to access them

[elect]

maybe I got it decoder as JsonDecoder

[elect]

it works partially, because it fails when it tries to parse the children, which are wrapped as well

[elect]

got it, custom serializer on prop

@Serializable(with = ClassificationItemListSerializer::class)
val children: List<ClassificationItem> = emptyList()
