如何计算QueryDSL中特定字段的不同项目

Question

Edit: it turns out that JPA can't express this. The solution was to rewrite in SQL.

I'm using QueryDSL to perform an aggregate query on a JPA data set for reporting. I have no problem extracting the report data. For example:

...
query = query.groupBy(QVehicle.vehicle.make, QVehicle.vehicle.model);
return query.listDistinct(new QMakeModelReportData(
            QVehicle.vehicle.make, QVehicle.vehicle.model,
            QVehicle.vehicle.make.count()));

This produces a list of my DTO object, each of which contains a vehicle make, vehicle model, and the count of vehicles of that make model. Like this:

   Ford, Focus, 14
   Ford, Mondeo, 4
   Vauxhall, Astra, 4

But I can't work out the syntax to count the number of rows before I actually perform the query. The syntax I imagine is like this, which doesn't exist:

return query.countDistinct(QVehicle.vehicle.make, QVehicle.vehicle.model);

I've ended up with a rather inefficient option:

return query
    .listDistinct(QVehicle.vehicle.make, QVehicle.vehicle.model)
    .size();

Is there anything better?

Answer 1

This is not a QueryDSL limitation, but a JPA limitation. The solution was to rewrite in SQL.

Answer 2

你可以做query.select(q.field.countDistinct())
