So here's the snippet:
String geoJson;
File shpFile = ...//the .shp File
shpFile.setReadOnly();
ShapefileDataStore store = new ShapefileDataStore(shpFile.toURI().toURL());
SimpleFeatureSource source = store.getFeatureSource();
SimpleFeatureCollection featureCollection = source.getFeatures();
FeatureJSON fjson = new FeatureJSON();
try (StringWriter writer = new StringWriter()) {
fjson.writeFeatureCollection(featureCollection, writer);
geoJson = writer.toString();
}
