The Spring Data Generated DAO - No More DAO Implementations ‘As we discussed in an earlier article, the DAO layer V/simplifying-the-data-access-layer-with-spring-and-java- generics) usually consists of alot of boilerplate code that can and should be simplified. The advantages of such a simplification are many: a decrease in the number of artifacts that we need to define and maintain, consistency of data access patterns, and consistency of configuration, Spring Data lakes this simplification one step further and makes It possible to remove the DAO implementations entirely. The interface of the DAO is now the only arlifact that we need lo explicitly define. In order to start leveraging the Spring Data programming model with JPA. a DAO interface needs to extend the JPA specific Repository interface, JpaRepository. This will enable Spring Data to find this interface and automatically create an implementation fort. By extending the interface. we get the most relevant CRUD methods for standard data access available in a standard DAO. hitpsslvww-baeldung.comithe-persistance-layer-wih-spring-datajpa 28oat2023 19:33, Introduction to Spring Data JPA| Baeldung “ Des fonctionnalités qui stimulent innovation et la valeur ajoutée pour les clients 1M IBM 3. Custom Access Method and Queries ‘As discussed. by implementing one of the Repository interfaces, the DAO will already have some basic CRUD methods (and queries) defined and implemented. ‘To define more specific access methods, Spring JPA supports quite a few options «+ simply define a new method in the interface ++ provide the actual JPQL query by using the @Query annotation ‘+ use the more advanced Specification and Querydsl support in Spring Data ‘+ define custom queries via JPA Named Queries ‘The third option (http/springio/blog/2011/04/26 /adivanced-spring-data-jpa-specifications-and-querydsU/ Specifications and Queryds| support. is similar to JPA Criteria, but uses a more flexible and convenient APL This ‘makes the whole operation much more readable and reusable, The advantages of this API will become more pronounced when dealing with a large number of fixed queries, as we could potentially express these more concisely through a smaller number of reusable blocks. ‘The last option has the disadvantage that i either involves XML or burdening the domain class with the queries. 3.1. Automatic Custom Queries ‘When Spring Data creates a new Repository implementation, it analyses all the methods defined by the interfaces and tres to automatically generate queries from the method names, While ths has some limitations, its avery powerful and elegant way of defining new custom access methods with very title eft Des fonctionnalités qui stimulent innovation et la valeur ajoutée pour les clients 1M IBM Lets look at an example. Ifthe entity has a name field (and the Java Bean standard getName and setNane methods), well define the findByName method in the DAO interface.
