Annotation Interface SerializedNames

@Beta @Target(METHOD) @Retention(RUNTIME) public @interface SerializedNames
This annotation identifies the canonical factory method on an AutoValue type used for json. It also dictates the serialized naming convention of the fields. This is required as there's currently no way to add annotations to the fields generated by AutoValue.

Example: 

@AutoValue class Resource {
   abstract String id();
   @Nullable abstract Map<String, String> metadata();

   @SerializedNames({ "Id", "Metadata" }) // Note case format is controlled here!
   static Resource create(String id, Map<String, String> metadata) {
     return new AutoValue_Resource(id, metadata);
   }
 }
