Is it possible to create stream from com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.node.ArrayNode?
I tried: 

ArrayNode files = (ArrayNode) json.get("files");
Stream<JsonNode> stream = Stream.of(files);

But it will actually give stream of one element, the initial ArrayNode object.
Correct result should be Stream<JsonNode>, can I achieve it?

ArrayNode implements Iterable. Iterable has a spliterator() method. You can create a sequential Stream from a Spliterator using 

StreamSupport.stream(spliterator, false)
