I am currently using spring-data-jpa
version 1.9.4
.
I have a MySql table with columns project(integer), summary(varchar), and description(varchar).
I have a regex that I would like to use to search the summary and/or description field meaning that if it finds it in summary does not need to apply regex to description.
The repository method I am attempting to use is:
List<Issue> findByProjectAndSummaryOrDescriptionRegex(long project, String regex)
The error I am receiving is:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unsupported keyword REGEX (1): [MatchesRegex, Matches, Regex]
It is difficult in my company environment to update/upgrade versions, so if the issue is NOT my syntax but rather the then if someone knows which version now supports 'Regex' for query derivation or where I could find that specific information I would be grateful. I have looked at the Changelog
and it appears that 1.9.4
should support but it appears not.
Thanks for your help!

EDIT 1: I am aware of the @Query
annotation but have been asked by my lead to only use that as a last resort if I cannot find the correct version which supports keyword REGEX [MatchesRegex, Matches, Regex]
Crud Repository doesn't provide methods for implementing pagination and sorting. JpaRepository ties your repositories to the JPA persistence technology so it should be avoided. We should use CrudRepository or PagingAndSortingRepository depending on whether you need sorting and paging or not.
@Repository Annotation is a specialization of @Component annotation which is used to indicate that the class provides the mechanism for storage, retrieval, update, delete and search operation on objects.
In order to define SQL to execute for a Spring Data repository method, we can annotate the method with the @Query annotation — its value attribute contains the JPQL or SQL to execute. The @Query annotation takes precedence over named queries, which are annotated with @NamedQuery or defined in an orm.xml file.
The @Query annotation can only be used to annotate repository interface methods. The call of the annotated methods will trigger the execution of the statement found in it, and their usage is pretty straightforward. The @Query annotation supports both native SQL and JPQL.
I would recommend using native query (with @Query
annotation) if the Spring data syntax does not work, e.g.:
@Query(nativeQuery=true, value="SELECT * FROM table WHERE project = ?1 AND (summary regexp ?2 OR description regexp ?2)")
List<Issue> findByProjectAndSummaryOrDescription(long project, String regex);
Update
If native query is not an option then (a) could you try it with single column and see if that works and (b) could you try by appending regex
to both the columns, e.g.:
List<Issue> findByProjectAndDescriptionRegex(long project, String regex);
List<Issue> findByProjectAndSummaryRegexOrDescriptionRegex(long project, String regex, String regex);
