JPA Data Repositories with SqlResultSetMapping and native queries

Question

I was stuck with the following situation:

My entities are related to each other, but in such a way that i could not use JPQL. I was forced to use native SQL. Now I want to map these results to a ValueObject. To be clear, I don't want to get a list of Object array (List<Object[]>). I have 6 entities from which I need only some columns. Can anybody give me an example on how to implement such a mapping from a native query?

Tutorial that I went through.

My code:

@SqlResultSetMapping(
    name = "findAllDataMapping",
    classes = @ConstructorResult(
            targetClass = MyVO.class,
            columns = {
                    @ColumnResult(name = "userFirstName"),
                    @ColumnResult(name = "userLastName"),
                    @ColumnResult(name = "id"),
                    @ColumnResult(name = "packageName")
            }
    )
)

@NamedNativeQuery(name = "findAllDataMapping",
    query = "SELECT " +
            "    u.first_name as userFirstName, " +
            "    u.last_name as userLastName, " +
            "    i.id as id, " +
            "    s.title as packageName, " +
            "FROM " +
            "    invoice as i " +
            "JOIN user as u on i.user_id=u.id " +
            "LEFT JOIN subscription_package as s on i.subscription_package_id=s.id " +
            "where  u.param1=:param1 and i.param2=:param2" +
)

public class MyVO {
    private String userFirstName;
    private String userLastName;
    private Long id;
    private String packageName;

    public MyVO (String userFName, String userLName,
            Long id, String packageName) {
        this.userFirstName = userFName;
        this.userLastName = userLName;
        this.id = id;
        this.packageName = packageName;
    }

    // getters & setters
}

In my jpa-repository module:

public interface MyRepository extends JpaRepository<MyEntity, Long> {
    List<MyVO> findAllOfMyVO(@Param("param1") String param1, @Param("param2") String param2);
}

The point is that I don't know where to put these annotations so I can use this kind of mapping. In a native query I can't use new rs.rado.leo.mypackage.MyVO(...). I got following error:

Caused by:

org.springframework.data.mapping.PropertyReferenceException: No property findAllOfMyVO found for type MyEntity!

I suppose that my question is clear. If not, let me know so I can edit my question.

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Add the missing resultClass

@NamedNativeQuery(name = "findAllDataMapping", resultClass = Entity.class, query="sql")

Or

@NamedNativeQuery(name = "findAllDataMapping", resultClass = MyVO.class, resultSetMapping ="findAllDataMapping" query = "sql")

and lastly call the query in your repository

@Query(nativeQuery = true, name = "findAllDataMapping")
List<MyVO> findAllOfMyVO(@Param("param1") String param1, @Param("param2") String param2);
