I have a pojo annotated like this:
@Document
class Car {
@Id
String id ;
@Indexed
String manufacturer ;
}
And I am using MongoTemplate
to insert into mongo. If I insert without specifying a collection name, everything works fine. However, if I specify a collection name, none of the indexes are created except for the _id
one.
I really need to be able to specify the collection name manually because:
Car
end up in the same collection Cars
in a separate collection Do I have to call ensureIndex()
myself manually? If so, is there a way to do it that uses my @Indexed
annotations? The actual objects I am trying to save are a lot more complex than 'Car'
Unfortunately MongoTemplate
function
public void insert(Object objectToSave, String collectionName)
using collectionName
only for saving object and not for creating any annotated indexes. If object passed to save operation then application event listener MongoPersistentEntityIndexCreator
scan saved entity class for @Indexed
annotations and create indexes. But it detect collection name based on next formula (from sources):
String collection = StringUtils.hasText(index.collection()) ? index.collection() : entity.getCollection();
where index.collection()
is collection from @Indexed
annotation and entity.getCollection()
from @Document
annotation.
So, you need to call ensureIndex()
manually. It's strange behaviour. I think you can open bug here: DATAMONGO
EDIT: I think you can create function that return all classes annotated with @Document
and also get all collections from mongodb started from cars.<year>
. Then you can analyse all fields annotated with @Indexed
and, as result, call ensureIndex
for this fields using collections list.
I really need to be able to specify the collection name manually because:
I need to ensure different subclasses of Car end up in the same collection
I would like to store each year's worth of Cars in a separate collection
As for your first statement, you can enforce a single collection using @Document
metadata annotation:
@Document(collection="cars")
class Car {
@Id
String id ;
@Indexed
String manufacturer ;
}
@Document(collection="cars")
class Honda extends Car {
}
@Document(collection="cars")
class Volvo extends Car {
}
The collection field of @Document
will take care that every subclass of car gets into the cars collection, plus the index is automatically created with the help of the @Indexed
annotation.
You maybe better off stooping to the DB level and checking if the collection has indexes you need using getIndexes and calling the ensureIndex as part of your application start up.
Tip: Implement InitializingBean on the class that configures mongo for your application and do the magic there.
No preaching, IMHO Spring is good at certain things and so-so at others. I try to avoid the bloat other than for DI & TXN management in non XA environments.
After a long search, I think that for now is not posible using annotations, so I created a programmatically way to manage this scenario.
creating normal index and compound index
First I defined an object to map the index structure.
public class CollectionDefinition {
private String id;
private String collectionName;
private LinkedHashMap<String, Sort.Direction> normalIndexMap;
private ArrayList<String> compoundIndexMap;
public String getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(String id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getCollectionName() {
return collectionName;
}
public void setCollectionName(String collectionName) {
this.collectionName = collectionName;
}
public LinkedHashMap<String, Sort.Direction> getNormalIndexMap() {
return normalIndexMap;
}
public void setNormalIndexMap(LinkedHashMap<String, Sort.Direction> normalIndexMap) {
this.normalIndexMap = normalIndexMap;
}
public ArrayList<String> getCompoundIndexMap() {
return compoundIndexMap;
}
public void setCompoundIndexMap(ArrayList<String> compoundIndexMap) {
this.compoundIndexMap = compoundIndexMap;
}
The Json collection will look like this
{
"collectionName" : "example",
"normalIndexMap" : {
"sessionId" : "ASC",
"hash" : "DESC"
},
"compoundIndexMap" : [
"{\"hash\":1,\"sessionId\":1,\"serverDate\":-1}",
"{\"sessionId\":1,\"serverDate\":-1}",
"{\"sessionId\":1,\"loginWasSuccessful\":1,\"loginDate\":-1}"
]}
Then We can create the collection and the indexes
private List<IndexDefinition> createIndexList(Map<String, Sort.Direction> normalIndexMap) {
Set<String> keySet = normalIndexMap.keySet();
List<IndexDefinition> indexArray = new ArrayList<>();
for (String key : keySet) {
indexArray.add(new Index(key, normalIndexMap.get(key)).background());
}
return indexArray;
}
The resulting single index list can be used to create single field index
private void createIndexes(List<IndexDefinition> indexDefinitionList, MongoOperations mongoOperations, String collectionName) {
indexDefinitionList.forEach(indexDefinition -> mongoOperations.indexOps(collectionName).ensureIndex(indexDefinition));
}
The compound index or multifield index is tricky, We need to create DBObjects to define the index
private List<DBObject> createCompountIndexList(List<String> compoundIndexStringMapList) {//NOSONAR IS IN USE
if (compoundIndexStringMapList == null || compoundIndexStringMapList.isEmpty())
return new ArrayList<>(); //NOSONAR
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
List<DBObject> basicDBObjectList = new ArrayList<>();
for (String stringMapList : compoundIndexStringMapList) {
LinkedHashMap<String, Integer> parsedMap;
try {
parsedMap = mapper.readValue(stringMapList, new TypeReference<Map<String, Integer>>() {
});
BasicDBObjectBuilder dbObjectBuilder = BasicDBObjectBuilder.start();
Iterator it = parsedMap.entrySet().iterator();
while (it.hasNext()) {
Map.Entry indexElement = (Map.Entry) it.next();
dbObjectBuilder.add((String) indexElement.getKey(), indexElement.getValue());
it.remove(); // avoids a ConcurrentModificationException
}
basicDBObjectList.add(dbObjectBuilder.get());
} catch (IOException e) {//NOSONAR I´m logging it, we can not do anything more here cause it is part of the db configuration settings that need to be correct
Logger.getLogger(JsonCollectionCreation.class).error("The compound index definition " + stringMapList + " is not correct it can not be mapped to LinkHashMap");
}
}
return basicDBObjectList;
}
And the result can be used to create the index in the collection
private void createCompoundIndex(List<DBObject> compoundIndexList, MongoOperations mongoOperations, String collectionName) {
if (compoundIndexList.isEmpty()) return;
for (DBObject compoundIndexDefinition : compoundIndexList) {
mongoOperations.indexOps(collectionName).ensureIndex(new CompoundIndexDefinition(compoundIndexDefinition).background());
}
}
