How to get the All table metadata in spring boot - JPA - hibernate?

Question

I need to get META information of All the tables present in my schema dynamically , Meta infos are such as table , entity ,column name etc.

I have followed the following tutorial

https://vladmihalcea.com/how-to-get-the-entity-mapping-to-database-table-binding-metadata-from-hibernate/

as said in the above link i have created the Integrator called MetadataExtractorIntegrator.java

package com.test.ttv;
import org.hibernate.boot.Metadata;
import org.hibernate.boot.model.relational.Database;
import org.hibernate.engine.spi.SessionFactoryImplementor;
import org.hibernate.service.spi.SessionFactoryServiceRegistry;

public class MetadataExtractorIntegrator implements org.hibernate.integrator.spi.Integrator {

    public static final MetadataExtractorIntegrator INSTANCE = new MetadataExtractorIntegrator();

    private Database database;

    private Metadata metadata;

    public Database getDatabase() {
        return database;
    }

    public Metadata getMetadata() {
        return metadata;
    }

    @Override
    public void integrate(
            Metadata metadata,
            SessionFactoryImplementor sessionFactory,
            SessionFactoryServiceRegistry serviceRegistry) {

        this.database = metadata.getDatabase();
        this.metadata = metadata;

    }

    @Override
    public void disintegrate(
        SessionFactoryImplementor sessionFactory,
        SessionFactoryServiceRegistry serviceRegistry) {

    }
}

And trying to register it in my application by following config

application.yml

jpa:
  properties:
    hibernate.integrator_provider: com.test.ttv.MetadataExtractorIntegrator

And i am getting the following Exception while Starting the build

Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to org.hibernate.jpa.boot.spi.IntegratorProvider

Could anyone help me to solve this issue?? Thanks

Answer 1

In Spring Boot, spring.jpa.properties points to a Map<String, String>, so it can only contain String values.

However in Hibernate, when the EntityManagerFactoryBuilderImpl reads hibernate.integrator_provider it expects to find an instance of IntegratorProvider and not a Class name, hence the exception.

You can however add a bean that implements HibernatePropertiesCustomizer to add the IntegrationProvider instance to the Hibernate properties:

@Component
public class HibernateConfig implements HibernatePropertiesCustomizer {

    @Override
    public void customize(Map<String, Object> hibernateProperties) {
        hibernateProperties.put("hibernate.integrator_provider",
                (IntegratorProvider) () -> Collections.singletonList(MetadataExtractorIntegrator.INSTANCE));
    }
}

I have created a working example in this repository.
