#Document(collection = "collectionName") not working when extend another class - spring-data-mongodb

I am working on a spring boot application with spring data mongoDB. I have a common class which holds all the common properties and my other classes extend it so that I have those common properties in them.
#Getter
#Setter
#EntityListeners({AuditingEntityListener.class})
public abstract class AbstractAuditEntity implements Serializable {
#CreatedBy
#NotNull
private Long createdBy;
#LastModifiedBy
#NotNull
private Long updatedBy;
#CreatedDate
#NotNull
private Instant createdDate;
#LastModifiedDate
#NotNull
private Instant updatedDate;
}
now when i extend this class in my another class like
#Document(collection = "consumer")
#Data
#AllArgsConstructor
#NoArgsConstructor
#EqualsAndHashCode(callSuper = true)
public class ConsumerEntity extends AbstractAuditEntity {
#Id
private ObjectId id;
}
The document created in mongo database has same name as my class name i.e "ConsumerEntity", how do I get #Document(collection = "consumer") to work so that in my mongo database the collection name is reflected as "consumer". Thank You

Spring and Hibernate: Entity inheriting from another database Entity (an having mapped properties from the firstone)

I'm trying to isolate some core entities from my project. The idea of this is to share the same users, roles, etc. between many applications.
So, I have this User entity structure from core application, using a database called core:
#Entity
public class MyUser implements UserDetails, Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
#Id
#GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
private Long id;
private String name;
#Column(unique = true)
private String username;
private String password;
private String salt;
#ManyToMany(fetch = FetchType.EAGER)
private Set<Role> roles;
private Boolean isAccountNonExpired;
private Boolean isAccountNonLocked;
private Boolean isCredentialsNonExpired;
private Boolean isEnabled;
...
}
On the other hand, I have this other entity from the final application, using a database called myapplication:
#Entity
public class Employee extends MyUser {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
#Type(type = "date")
private Date birthDate;
#Type(type = "date")
private Date marriageDate;
private Long employeeNum;
private Integer workHs;
#OneToMany
private List<Role> canAssignRoles;
}
I created two datasources and session factories in hibernate.cfg.xml, one for each database, but I cannot achieve the purpose.
How you can see, one entity is mapped to core database, and the other one is mapped to the myapplication database. The Employee entity has a OneToMany mapping to Role.
I have no idea of how to solve this. When Hibernate is creating the database entities, it raises an error when trying to create the entities for myapplication.

Which JPA annotation should I use on an AutoPopulatingList?

I have an entity called ReferenceForm which contains an AutoPopulatingList of ReferenceItems. It looks like this:
#Entity
public class ReferenceForm implements Serializable{
private static final long serialVersionUID = -5633788166190438576L;
#Id
#GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
long id;
#lob
private AutoPopulatingList<ReferenceItem> referenceItems;
}
If I add no annotation at all to the AutoPopulatingList, the field type which hibernate creates is varbinary(255). This causes string truncation errors. To work around this, I used the #lob annotation. This felt questionable at the time, but it worked fine. At this point I was just using HSQLDB.
Now the application needs to run against MSSQL. I have generated the schema using Hibernate, and referenceItems ia an image column on the ReferenceForm table. The items themselves are stored in the ReferenceItem table.
Is #lob an appropriate annotation here?.
EDIT: ReferenceItem looks like this:
#Entity
public class ReferenceItem implements Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = -9077063073733429102L;
#Id
#GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
long id;
private Title title;
private String firstName;
private String surname;
private String positionHeld;
private String institutionCompany;
#Embedded
private Address address;
#Embedded
private Telephone telephone;
private String email;
private boolean existingReference;
private String fileName;
public ReferenceItem() {
}
...getters and setters
}
SECOND EDIT:
Thanks to Willome for suggesting using #OneToMany. In the end, this is what worked.
//from
#lob
private AutoPopulatingList<ReferenceItem> referenceItems;
//to
#OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL, fetch = FetchType.EAGER)
private List<ReferenceItem> referenceItems = new AutoPopulatingList<ReferenceItem>(ReferenceItem.class);
#OneToMany accurately describes the nature of the relationship
Use the interface (List) instead of the implementation when defining the field. See http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/core/3.3/reference/en/html/collections.html
Define the CascadeType, otherwise this error appears on saving the entity: org.hibernate.TransientObjectException: object references an unsaved transient instance
Make the FetchType EAGER otherwise you cannot load the form in a different transaction: this error appears: failed to lazily initialize a collection of role: ReferenceForm.referenceItems, could not initialize proxy - no Session
You should replace your #Lob annonation with a #OneToMany and replace the AutoPopulatingList with a collection-valued field declared as an interface type (Check out the topic 6.1. Persistent collections on this link http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/core/3.3/reference/en/html/collections.html.)
//#Lob
#OneToMany(mappedBy = "referenceForm")
private AutoPopulatingList<ReferenceItem> referenceItems; //fail AutoPopulatingList is not an interface
#OneToMany(mappedBy = "referenceForm")
private Set<ReferenceItem> referenceItems; // OK with Set/Collection/List
Thanks to Willome for suggesting using #OneToMany. In the end, this is what worked.
//from
#lob
private AutoPopulatingList<ReferenceItem> referenceItems;
//to
#OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL, fetch = FetchType.EAGER)
private List<ReferenceItem> referenceItems = new AutoPopulatingList<ReferenceItem>(ReferenceItem.class);

Twitter like relationships in JPA

I'm getting into problems with JPA. I'm trying to implement a database that allows users to follow other users and be followed.
I think I'd need (summing up) something like this:
USER_TABLE: id | userName
RELATIONSHIP_TABLE: id | follower | followed | acceptation
I have two entities (also summed up):
#Entity
public class User implements Serializable {
#Id
private Long id;
private String userName;
#OneToMany
private Collection<Relationship> followings;
}
#Entity
public class Relationship implements Serializable {
#Id
private Long id;
private User follower;
private User followed;
private boolean accepted;
}
My problem is that I'm not sure if it's possible to do this, because I obtain more tables that the two that I need.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks and sorry about my english.
You obtain more tables because you did not make the associations bidirectional. JPA has no way to know that Relationship.follower is the other side of the User.followings if you don't tell:
#Entity
public class User implements Serializable {
#OneToMany(mappedBy = "follower")
private Collection<Relationship> followings;
// ...
}
#Entity
public class Relationship implements Serializable {
#ManyToOne
#JoinColumn(name = "follower")
private User follower;
#ManyToOne
#JoinColumn(name = "followed")
private User followed;
// ...
}
The documentation of course explains how that works.

How to implement manually JPA relation OneToMany

I am using JPA annotations and when i have relation OneToMany - ManyToOne, when i see my entity in the ManyToOne, the joinColumn is always with null value.
Next i will show my example, i have Product:
#Entity
#Table(name = "PC_PRODUCT")
public class Product extends LaunchEntity {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
#XmlElement(name = "Product_Name", required = true)
protected String productName;
#XmlElement(name = "Product_Description")
protected String productDescription;
#XmlElement(name = "Product_To_Charge")
#OneToMany(mappedBy = "product", cascade=CascadeType.MERGE)
protected List<ChargeRelation> productToCharge;
And, this is my ChargeRelation class:
#Entity
#Table(name="PC_CHARGE_RELATION")
public class ChargeRelation
extends RelationEntity
{
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
#XmlElement(name = "Charge", required = true)
#OneToOne(cascade = CascadeType.MERGE)
protected Charge charge;
#XmlTransient
#ManyToOne(cascade=CascadeType.MERGE)
#JoinColumn(name="PRODUCT_ID")
protected Product product;
I am reading a xml file, convert data for a string, make unmarshall for my root object and persist this object.
The problem is when i found a charge relation in my string, the values are inserted on the charge relation table but the column with the product_id is always null.
I have all setters and getters defined. How i can force this to make the manual insert? thanks
Note: I'm the EclipseLink JAXB (MOXy) lead and a member of the JAXB 2 (JSR-222) expert group.
EclipseLink JAXB (MOXy) has an extension called #XmlInverseReference that allows you to map the back-pointer.
Product
#Entity
#Table(name = "PC_PRODUCT")
public class Product extends LaunchEntity {
#XmlElement(name = "Product_To_Charge")
#OneToMany(mappedBy = "product", cascade=CascadeType.MERGE)
protected List<ChargeRelation> productToCharge;
}
ChargeRelation
The #XmlInverseReference annotation is used where you previously had #XmlTransient. #XmlInverseReference acts like #XmlTransient during the marshal operation, and will populate the back-pointer during an unmarshal operation.
#Entity
#Table(name="PC_CHARGE_RELATION")
public class ChargeRelation extends RelationEntity {
#XmlInverseReference(mappedBy = "productToCharge")
#ManyToOne(cascade=CascadeType.MERGE)
#JoinColumn(name="PRODUCT_ID")
protected Product product;
}

Note that JPA provider reflects the state of many-to-one side of relationship when saving it to the database.
However, JAXB only populates one-to-many side during XML unmarshalling, therefore you need to populate many-to-one side manually after unmarshalling.

JAXBException when marshalling a class with JPA annotations

I got the following exception when marshalling Comment objects to JSON:
javax.xml.bind.JAXBException: class javax.jdo.identity.LongIdentity
nor any of its super class is known to this context. at
com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.JAXBContextImpl.getBeanInfo(JAXBContextImpl.java:594)
at
com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.XMLSerializer.childAsXsiType(XMLSerializer.java:648)
Below is my Comment definition, note that I mixed JAXB annotations (for marshalling) and JPA ones (for persistence with GAE).
#Entity
#XmlRootElement(name = "Comment")
#XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
public class Comment {
#Id
#GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
#XmlElement(name = "CommentId")
private Long commentId;
#Basic
#XmlElement(name = "Author")
private String author;
...
}
What I don't get is why the exception has something to do with LongIdentity?
Try annotating the properties instead of the fields. The JPA implementation may have used byte code manipulation to add a field of type LongIdentity.
Blaise really shed light on my question, the problem solved and here is the modified Comment class.
#Entity
#XmlRootElement(name = "Comment")
#XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.PROPERTY)
public class Comment {
#Id
#GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
#XmlElement(name = "CommentId")
public Long getCommentId();
#Basic
#XmlElement(name = "Author")
public String getAuthor();
...
}
