How to mapping subquery in select with jpa

Question

I am using spring ,jpa, hibernate,mysql , java 8,.In Dao (which is inteface and extends JpaRepository) MyTable class

import javax.persistence.Column;
import javax.persistence.Entity;
import javax.persistence.Id;
import javax.persistence.Table;
import javax.persistence.Transient;

@Entity
@Table(name = "MY_TABLE")
public class MyTable {

    @Id
    @Column(name = "ID")
    private long id;
    @Column(name = "ITEM_NAME")
    private String itemName;
    @Column(name = "ITEM_PRICE")
    private int itemPrice;
    @Transient
    private int col1;

    public MyTable() {
    }
    public MyTable(long id, String itemName, int itemPrice, int col1) {
        super();
        this.id = id;
        this.itemName = itemName;
        this.itemPrice = itemPrice;
        this.col1 = col1;
    }
    public long getId() {
        return id;
    }
    public void setId(long id) {
        this.id = id;
    }
    public String getItemName() {
        return itemName;
    }
    public void setItemName(String itemName) {
        this.itemName = itemName;
    }
    public int getItemPrice() {
        return itemPrice;
    }
    public void setItemPrice(int itemPrice) {
        this.itemPrice = itemPrice;
    }
    public int getCol1() {
        return col1;
    }
    public void setCol1(int col1) {
        this.col1 = col1;
    }


}

MyTableDao

  import java.util.List;

import org.springframework.data.jpa.repository.JpaRepository;
import org.springframework.data.jpa.repository.Query;

import com.kolip.devchain.model.MyTable;

public interface MyTableDao extends JpaRepository<MyTable   , Long> {

    @Query(value = "SELECT mt.*, (select count(1) from anotherTable ) as col1 from MY_TABLE mt",nativeQuery = true)
    List<MyTable> getMyTableList();
}

MY_TABLE

CREATE TABLE `my_table` (
   `ID` bigint(20) NOT NULL,
   `ITEM_NAME` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
   `ITEM_PRICE` int(11) DEFAULT NULL,
   PRIMARY KEY (`ID`)
 ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8

I try to simplify my problem.I try to get col1 value but i can't find out how should be col1 attribute in entity. Other values can be gotten in entity.

If i use col1 attribute without @Transient , it will work , but col1 is not persistant(Also findAll() not working because there isn't col1 column on db). What should i do ?

Answer 1

you have many options but you could try this the following steps if you are using JPA 2.1:

1) Create a suitable DTO which should include properties that will take the results of your query: "SELECT mt.*, (select count(1) from anotherTable ) as col1 from MY_TABLE mt"

2) In the MyTable entity, map the native query to your DTO using the @SqlResultSetMapping and @ConstructorResult annotations (a simple search on google will give you lots of usefull info on its usage).(See http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/7/api/javax/persistence/SqlResultSetMapping.html)

3) Modify the MyTableDao to use the native query you created in step 2.

I hope this helps. Goodluck :)
