Study Notes
JPA with Spring
- Spring Data simplifies JPA's configuration and usage
-
Maven dependency: Use
spring-boot-starter-data-jpa
- Spring Boot: Automatically configures JPA for you
-
Manual Configuration (XML): Configure Hibernate details in
persistence.xml
-
Manual Configuration (Java): Use
@PersistenceContext
for entity manager injection - XML-less: Use annotations for configuration
Bootstrapping Hibernate 5 with Spring
- Spring Boot: Automatically configures Hibernate 5
-
Maven Dependencies:
-
org.hibernate:hibernate-core
-
org.hibernate:hibernate-entitymanager
-
org.springframework:spring-orm
-
org.springframework:spring-tx
-
-
Java Configuration:
- Override default settings using
LocalSessionFactoryBean
- Inject
SessionFactory
for DAO access
- Override default settings using
-
XML Configuration:
- Define Hibernate settings in
hibernate.cfg.xml
- Use
SessionFactory
for DAO access
- Define Hibernate settings in
The DAO with Spring and Hibernate
- Simplified development: Use JPA and Hibernate for data persistence
-
No Spring Templates:
- Use
EntityManager
for entity management - Use
@PersistenceContext
to injectEntityManager
- Use
@Transactional
for transaction management
- Use
-
Exception Translation: Use the
@Transactional
annotation for automatic exception translation - DAO: The Data Access Object pattern simplifies the interaction with the persistence layer
Simplify the DAO with Spring and Java Generics
- Generic DAOs: Reduce code repetition within the DAO implementation
- Abstract DAOs: Provide common functionality across DAOs
- Generic JPA DAO: Implement generic behavior for various entities
- Generic Hibernate DAO: Implement generic actions for various entities
- Injecting DAOs: Use constructor injection for better control and clarity
Transactions with Spring and JPA
- Transaction Management: Ensure data integrity and concurrency control
-
XML Configuration: Use the
tx
namespace to configure transactions - Java Configuration: Use annotations to define transactional methods
-
Transaction Annotations:
-
@Transactional
for transactional methods -
readOnly
attribute for read-only transactions -
isolation
attribute for different isolation levels
-
-
Potential Pitfalls:
- Proxies for transaction management
- Isolation levels for concurrency control
- Transaction logging for troubleshooting
Introduction to Spring Data JPA
- Simplified Data Access: Spring Data provides a unified and user-friendly JPA interface
- Spring Data DAO: Simplified and automated data access layer
- Custom Queries: Define custom queries using various methods
- Automatically Generated Queries: Derive query logic based on method names
- Manual Custom Queries: Write custom queries using @Query annotations
-
Transaction Configuration:
-
@Transactional
for transactional methods
-
- Exception Translation: Handles exceptions automatically
-
Spring Data Configuration:
- Use
@EnableJpaRepositories
for repository scanning
- Use
Spring Data JPA @Query
- Custom Queries: Enhance Spring Data JPA with more control over queries
-
Select Queries:
- JPQL: Use JPQL syntax to define queries
- Native: Use native SQL queries
-
Order in Query:
- JPQL: Define order in the query string
- Native: Define order in the native SQL query
- Spring Data JPA: Use
Pageable
for pagination
- Pagination: Retrieve data in smaller chunks for better performance
-
Indexed Query Parameters:
- JPQL: Use positional parameters in queries
- Native: Use positional parameters in queries
-
Named Parameters:
- JPQL: Use named parameters for better readability
- Native: Use named parameters for better readability
- Collection Parameter: Pass collections as query parameters
- Update Queries: Use @Modifying annotation for update queries
- Dynamic Queries: Build queries at runtime depending on the input
- Custom Repositories: Implement custom interfaces for specific data access operations
