I am using JPA specifications and CriteriaQuery in order to add where clauses to my entities..
Domain Class:
public class Domain {
@Id
@Column(name = "id")
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
private Long id;
@Column(name = "account_id")
private Long accountId;
@OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
@JoinColumn(name = "domain_id")
private List<Notification> notification;
}
Notification Class:
public class Notification {
@Id
@Column(name = "id")
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
private Long id;
@Column(name = "domain_id")
private Long domainId;
@Column(name = "contact")
private String contact;
}
Then I have the following class which I use to create Specifications:
public class DomainSpecification implements Specification<Domain> {
final private SearchCriteria criteria;
public DomainSpecification(SearchCriteria searchCriteria) {
this.criteria = searchCriteria;
}
@Override
public Predicate toPredicate(
Root<Domain> root, CriteriaQuery<?> query, CriteriaBuilder builder) {
switch (criteria.getOperation()) {
case ":":
if (root.get(criteria.getKey()).getJavaType() == String.class) {
return builder.like(
root.<String>get(criteria.getKey()),
"%" + criteria.getValue() + "%");
} else {
return builder.equal(root.get(criteria.getKey()),
criteria.getValue());
}
case "=":
return builder.equal(root.get(criteria.getKey()),
criteria.getValue());
default:
return null;
}
}
}
And the SearchCriteria Object:
public class SearchCriteria {
private final String key;
private final String operation;
private final Object value;
public SearchCriteria(String key, String operation, Object value) {
this.key = key;
this.operation = operation;
this.value = value;
}
public String getKey() {
return key;
}
public String getOperation() {
return operation;
}
public Object getValue() {
return value;
}
}
Then, whenever I want to create a where clause, I do the following:
DomainSpecification idSpecification
= new DomainSpecification(
new SearchCriteria("id", "=", domainId));
Specifications<Domain> specifications = Specifications.where(idSpecification);
final Domain domain = this.domainRepository.findOne(specifications);
This would search by the field called id
in the Domain Entity..
Now, how can I also filter by the entity that I am joining with ? For example, I want to filter where Domain.id = 10 and Notification.contact = "abc"?
Thanks for your help
You could wrap your Specification
s definitions into helper class:
public class DelegationSpecificationsHelper {
public static Specification<Domain> notificationContactSpec(String contact) {
return (root, query, cb) -> cb.equal(root.join("notification").get("contact"), contact);
}
public static Specification<Domain> idSpec(SearchCriteria searchCriteria) {
switch (criteria.getOperation()) {
case ":":
if (root.get(criteria.getKey()).getJavaType() == String.class) {
return builder.like(
root.<String>get(criteria.getKey()),
"%" + criteria.getValue() + "%");
} else {
return builder.equal(root.get(criteria.getKey()),
criteria.getValue());
}
case "=":
return builder.equal(root.get(criteria.getKey()),
criteria.getValue());
default:
return null;
}
}
}
And then you could use it like this:
Specifications<Domain> specifications = Specifications.where(DelegationSpecificationsHelper.idSpec(new SearchCriteria("id", "=", domainId))
.and(DelegationSpecificationsHelper.notificationContactSpec("someSearchString"));
After static imports and some refactoring:
SearchCriteria idCriteria = new SearchCriteria("id", "=", domainId)
Specifications<Domain> specifications =
Specifications.where(idSpec(idCriteria)
.and(notificationContactSpec("someSearchString"));
Of course you should get rid of hardcoded values from here: cb.equal(root.join("notification").get("contact"), contact);
and use some DTO object or generated JPA meta model instead.
After adding metamodel it could look like this:
public static Specification<Domain> notificationContactSpec(String contactValue) {
return (root, query, cb) -> cb.equal(root.join(Domain_.notification).get(Notification_.contact), contactValue);
}
