Subject: [crestron] newtonsoft question

Is there a way to not serialize a property in an object that is not initialized.? Something like the [JsonIgnore] but I want to include the property if I set a value for it and leave it out of the serialization if it isn't set.? For example,

public class Account
{
? ??? public string FullName { get; set; }
? ??? public string EmailAddress { get; set; }

? ??? [Something like JsonIgnore]
? ??? public string PasswordHash { get; set; } }

Then

Account account = new Account
{
? ??? FullName = "Joe User",
? ??? EmailAddress = "joe@...",
? ??? PasswordHash = "VHdlZXQgJ1F1aWNrc2lsdmVyJyB0byBASmFtZXNOSw=="
};
string json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(account);
Console.WriteLine(json);
// {"FullName":"Joe
User","EmailAddress":"joe@...","PasswordHash":"VHdlZXQgJ1F1aWNrc2lsdmVyJyB0byBASmFtZXNOSw=="}

However in the case where PsswordHash isn't initialized with a value

Account account = new Account
{
? ??? FullName = "Joe User",
? ??? EmailAddress = "joe@...",
};
string json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(account);
Console.WriteLine(json);
// {"FullName":"Joe User","EmailAddress":"joe@..."}

So again, when PasswordHash isn't initialized it doesn't get included in the JSON at all.

Thanks in advance for the help
