Spring- Postman too many information with ManyToMany - java

I have a problem with my Spring application- am practicing ManyToMany Relationship.
I made two Entity- student, and groups for them- everything is good but when am trying to display them in postman i have spaghetti result like :
{"id":4,"lastName":"guzik","groups":[{"id":1,"groupName":"grupka","students":
....(shorter version, its about 1000 lines)
[{"id":1,"lastName":"smith","groups":[{}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}]}{"timestamp":"2022-04-25T08:25:31.387+00:00","status":200,"error":"OK","path":"/api/student/4"}

If you use ManyToMany relationship, It calls the Parent and the Child entity recursively when you try to get List of it. There must be ignorance in child entity like:
In Parent entity you could call #JsonManagedReference
In Child entity you could call #JsonBackReference
Documentation is here:
Bidirectional Relationships
public class User {
public int id;
public String name;
#JsonManagedReference
public List<Item> userItems;
}
public class Item {
public int id;
public String itemName;
#JsonBackReference
public User owner;
}
Or you can use #JsonIgnore on top of the Parent declaration in Child entity. Some of the case it gets worst when you use JsonIgnore.
Documentation is here:
Jackson Ignore Properties
public class MyDto {
private String stringValue;
#JsonIgnore
private int intValue;
private boolean booleanValue;
public MyDto() {
super();
}
}
Or use #JsonIgnoreProperties when you need to ignore many fields
#JsonIgnoreProperties(value = { "intValue" })
public class MyDto {
private String stringValue;
private int intValue;
private boolean booleanValue;
public MyDto() {
super();
}
}

How to solve the targeting an unmapped class error from hibernate?

I'm trying to map 2 entities (Course and Student), I have 2 Java classes and 2 MySQL tables, having a ManyToMany relationship. I created the junction table and java class Enrolment (as I want extra information such as the date of enrolment of a student to a course).
I'm trying to insert data using hibernate in this Enrolments table in the MySQL but I keep getting errors. Here are my POJO classes:
Course class:
#Entity
#Table(name = "course")
public class Course {
private int id;
#Column(name = "chapter_id")
private int chapterId;;
#Column(name = "name")
private String title;
#Column(name = "teacher_user_id")
private int teacherId;
#OneToMany(targetEntity=Enrolment.class, mappedBy="course", fetch=FetchType.LAZY)
// #JoinTable(name = "enrolment",
// joinColumns = #JoinColumn(name = "course_id"),
// inverseJoinColumns = #JoinColumn(name = "student_user_id"))
private List<Enrolment> enrolments = new ArrayList<Enrolment>();
public Course(){}
public Course(int id, int chapterId, String title, int teacherId) {
super();
this.id = id;
this.chapterId = chapterId;
this.title = title;
this.teacherId = teacherId;
}
#Id
#GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
public int getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(int id) {
this.id = id;
}
public int getChapterId() {
return chapterId;
}
public void setChapterId(int chapterId) {
this.chapterId = chapterId;
}
public String getTitle() {
return title;
}
public void setTitle(String title) {
this.title = title;
}
public int getTeacherId() {
return teacherId;
}
public void setTeacherId(int teacherId) {
this.teacherId = teacherId;
}
#OneToMany(mappedBy = "course")
public List<Enrolment> getEnrolments() {
return enrolments;
}
public void setEnrolments(List<Enrolment> courses) {
this.enrolments = courses;
}
public void addEnrolment(Enrolment enrolment) {
this.enrolments.add(enrolment);
}
}
Student class (this class is inherited from User parent class, I will attach User Class down below as well. In the database there are different tables as well: User and then Student and Teacher that inherit User parent entity):
#Entity
#Table(name = "student")
#PrimaryKeyJoinColumn(name = "user_id")
#OnDelete(action = OnDeleteAction.CASCADE)
public class Student extends User {
private int grade;
private List<Enrolment> enrolments = new ArrayList<Enrolment>();
public Student(){}
public Student(String fname, String lname, String email, String password, String address, String phone,
int userType, int grade, boolean isAdmin)
{
super(fname, lname, email, password, address, phone, userType, isAdmin);
this.grade=grade;
}
public int getGrade() {
return grade;
}
public void setGrade(int grade) {
this.grade = grade;
}
public void setEnrolments(List<Enrolment> courses) {
this.enrolments = courses;
}
#OneToMany(mappedBy = "student")
public List<Enrolment> getEnrolments() {
return enrolments;
}
public void addCourse(Enrolment course) {
this.enrolments.add(course);
}
public void addEnrolment(Enrolment enrolment) {
this.enrolments.add(enrolment);
}
}
User Class:
#Entity
#Inheritance(strategy = InheritanceType.JOINED)
#Table(name = "user")
public class User {
#Id
#GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
private int id;
private String firstname;
private String lastname;
private String email;
private String password;
private String address;
private String phone;
#Column(name = "user_type_id")
private int userType;
#Column(name = "is_admin")
private boolean isAdmin;
public User(String fname, String lname, String email, String password, String address, String phone,
int userType, boolean isAdmin) {
//super();
this.firstname = fname;
this.lastname = lname;
this.email = email;
this.password = password;
this.address = address;
this.phone = phone;
this.userType = userType;
this.isAdmin = isAdmin;
}
public User() {}
//getters & setters
And finally this is the Enrolment class:
#Entity
#Table(name = "enrolment")
public class Enrolment {
private int id;
private Student user;
private Course course;
#Column(name = "enrolment_date")
private Date enrolmentDate;
#Id
#GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
public int getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(int id) {
this.id = id;
}
#ManyToOne(cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
#JoinColumn(name = "student_user_id")
public User getUser() {
return user;
}
public void setUser(Student user) {
this.user = user;
}
#ManyToOne(cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
#JoinColumn(name = "course_id")
public Course getCourse() {
return course;
}
public void setCourse(Course course) {
this.course = course;
}
public Date getEnrolmentDate() {
return enrolmentDate;
}
public void setEnrolmentDate(Date enrolmentDate) {
this.enrolmentDate = enrolmentDate;
}
So I'm trying to read a course and a student from database and insert the information in this Enrolment table but it gives errors since trying to read a Course. Here is the DAO method:
#SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
#Transactional
public List<Course> getCoursesOfChapter(int chapterId) {
Configuration con = new Configuration().configure("hibernate.cfg.xml").addAnnotatedClass(Course.class);
SessionFactory sf = con.buildSessionFactory();
Session session = sf.openSession();
Transaction tx = session.beginTransaction();
Query query = session.createQuery("from Course where chapter_id = :chapterId");
query.setParameter("chapterId",chapterId);
// List list = query.list();
tx.commit();
return (List<Course>) query.list();
It throws the error at the session factory building:
Exception in thread "main" org.hibernate.AnnotationException: Use of #OneToMany or #ManyToMany targeting an unmapped class: models.Course.enrolments[models.Enrolment]

at org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration.buildSessionFactory(Configuration.java:689)
at dao.CourseDAO.getCourse(CourseDAO.java:52)
at webapp.Main.main(Main.java:132)
Finally, this is my call:
CourseDAO cdao = new CourseDAO();
Course course = cdao.getCourse(1);
I've tried playing with the annotations, make them ManyToMany instead of ManyToOne. I tried to map the User class instead of Student but still didn't work. I tried to make it without the junction class of Enrolment and just generate it without having an actual class for it but still didn't work (as I had to work with 2 session.save() methods one after the other which also gave some error that I couldn't solve). Probably it's a small thing that I'm missing here but I just can't figure it out, sorry for too long code but I really need to solve it fast. If you read through here, I really thank you!
So my question is: Am I missing something here from these mappings and annotations or I should change the structure of my classes?
Boiling down a problem to the bare minimum greatly helps others help you. Here are simpler versions of your student, course and enrollment classes that can be unit tested easily. The many-to-many association between course and student is separated into two many-to-one associations from Enrollment. Note that the associations are bidirectional and that the many side is mapped by the one side. Student cascades persistence operations to Enrollment, which reflects how schools normally work: students enroll in courses, not the other way around.
Course.java
#Entity
public class Course {
#Id
#GeneratedValue
private Long id;
private String title;
#OneToMany(mappedBy = "course")
private List<Enrollment> enrollments;
Course() {
}
Course(String title) {
this.title = title;
this.enrollments = new ArrayList<>();
}
void add(Enrollment enrollment) {
enrollments.add(enrollment);
}
Long getId() {
return id;
}
List<Enrollment> getEnrollments() {
return enrollments;
}
}
Student.java
#Entity
public class Student {
#Id
#GeneratedValue
private Long id;
private String name;
#OneToMany(mappedBy = "student", cascade = ALL, orphanRemoval = true)
private List<Enrollment> enrollments;
Student() {
}
Student(String name) {
this.name = name;
this.enrollments = new ArrayList<>();
}
void enroll(Course course) {
enrollments.add(new Enrollment(course, this));
}
}
Enrollment.java
#Entity
public class Enrollment {
#Id
#GeneratedValue
private Long id;
#ManyToOne
private Course course;
#ManyToOne
private Student student;
Enrollment() {
}
Enrollment(Course course, Student student) {
this.course = course;
this.student = student;
course.add(this);
}
}
The test case below checks that the entities are mapped and associated correctly. You can run it with Spring Boot.
SchoolTest.java
#RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
#SpringBootTest
#Transactional
public class SchoolTest {
#Autowired
private CourseRepository courseRepository;
#Autowired
private StudentRepository studentRepository;
#Test
public void run() {
Course course = courseRepository.save(new Course("cs_101"));
int studentCount = 3;
for (int i = 1; i <= studentCount; i++) {
Student student = new Student("student_" + i);
student.enroll(course);
studentRepository.save(student);
}
// push changes to the database and clear the existing entities
// to make the subsequent operations load from the database
entityManager.flush();
entityManager.clear();
Optional<Course> savedCourse = courseRepository.findById(course.getId());
assertTrue(savedCourse.isPresent());
assertEquals(studentCount, savedCourse.get().getEnrollments().size());
}
}
As the warning said, your Enrollment is not registered in Hibernate. If you really don't need it. Please use transient annotation. read more here

How to make a join on Java with criteria builder

I have a database in which I need to make a Join from Java with a CriteriaBuilder.
I have this code so far:
CriteriaBuilder cb = entman.getCriteriaBuilder();
CriteriaQuery<Company> query = cb.createQuery(Company.class);
Root<Employee> teacher = query.from(Employee.class);
Join<Employee, Company> employees = teacher.join("id");
query.select(employees).where(cb.equal(teacher.get("name"), ""));
List<Company> results = entman.createQuery(query).getResultList();
return results;
After I run this code ( with springboot) i get this error: Cannot join to attribute of basic type
Does anyone know what should I do to make it work ?
PS: I will provide any other information if needed.
Thanks in advance.
company database
employee database
L.E.:
Employee:
#Entity
public class Employee {
#Id
#GeneratedValue
private Long id;
#Column(nullable = false)
#Size(min = 1)
private String name;
#Column(nullable = false)
#Temporal(TemporalType.DATE)
private Date hire_date;
#ManyToOne
//#JoinColumn(name = "id")
private Company company;
public Employee() {}
public Employee(Long id, String name, Date date, Company company) {
setId(id);
setName(name);
setHire_date(date);
setCompany(company);
}
public Long getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(Long id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
public Date getHire_date() {
return hire_date;
}
public void setHire_date(Date hire_date) {
this.hire_date = hire_date;
}
public Company getCompany() {
return company;
}
public void setCompany(Company company) {
this.company = company;
}
}
Company:
#Entity
public class Company {
#Id
#GeneratedValue
private Long id;
#Column(nullable = false)
#Size(min = 1)
private String name;
#OneToMany(mappedBy="company", cascade = CascadeType.ALL, fetch=FetchType.EAGER, orphanRemoval=true)
private Collection<Employee> employees;
public Company() {}
public Company(Long id, String name) {
setId(id);
setName(name);
}
public Company(Long id, String name, Collection<Employee> employees) {
setId(id);
setName(name);
setEmployees(employees);
}
public Long getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(Long id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
public Collection<Employee> getEmployees()
{
return employees;
}
public void setEmployees(Collection<Employee> employees) {
this.employees = employees;
}
#Override
public String toString() {
return "Company [id=" + id + ", name=" + name + ", employees=" + employees.toString() + "]";
}
}
You need to have a Teacher element, not a reference to id because you cannot join a #Column field...
Change id mapping from #Column:
#Column(name = "id")
private Integer id;
with a #ManyToOne (or the needed one) association:
#ManyToOne
#JoinColumn(name = "id")
private Teacher teacher;
After this your join will work as expected.

how to write java hibernate many to many relationship retrieving query

I have two tables as specified below. I want to write a query to get all the contacts of a particular group.(According to group id). Please help me.
Thanks in advance.
1.this contacts table , which has many has many to many relationship with contact groups table.
#Entity
#Table(name="contacts")
public class Contacts implements Serializable {
private Long id;
private String userId;
private String emailId;
private Set<ContactGroups> contactGroups;
private String firstName;
private String lastName;
#Id
#Column(name="id")
#GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.AUTO)
public Long getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(Long id) {
this.id = id;
}
#Column(name="user_id")
public String getUserId() {
return userId;
}
public void setUserId(String userId) {
this.userId = userId;
}
#Column(name="email_id")
public String getEmailId() {
return emailId;
}
public void setEmailId(String emailId) {
this.emailId = emailId;
}
#ManyToMany(targetEntity = ContactGroups.class, cascade = {CascadeType.ALL},fetch=FetchType.EAGER)
#JoinTable(name="contact_group",
joinColumns=#JoinColumn(name="c_id", referencedColumnName="id"),
inverseJoinColumns=#JoinColumn(name="g_id", referencedColumnName="id")
)
public Set<ContactGroups> getContactGroups() {
return contactGroups;
}
public void setContactGroups(Set<ContactGroups> contactGroups) {
this.contactGroups = contactGroups;
}
#Column(name="first_name")
public String getFirstName() {
return firstName;
}
public void setFirstName(String firstName) {
this.firstName = firstName;
}
#Column(name="last_name")
public String getLastName() {
return lastName;
}
public void setLastName(String lastName) {
this.lastName = lastName;
}
}
#Entity
#Table(name="contact_groups")
public class ContactGroups implements Serializable{
private Long id;
private String groupName;
private String userName;
#Id
#GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.AUTO)
public Long getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(Long id) {
this.id = id;
}
#Column(name="user_name")
public String getUserName() {
return userName;
}
public void setUserName(String userName) {
this.userName = userName;
}
#Column(name="group_name")
public String getGroupName() {
return groupName;
}
public void setGroupName(String groupName) {
this.groupName = groupName;
}
}
select c from Contacts c
inner join c.contactGroups group
where group.id = :groupId
But everything would be simpler if
you named your entities ContactGroup and Contact (without the final s)
you mapped the association as a bidirectional one. It would allow getting the ContactGroup by ID, and just call getContacts() to get its contacts.
select c from Contacts c, ContactGroups g
where c.contactGroups.id = g.id
and g.id = 'whatever id you want'

Now The primary Key:

When I'm trying to Persist Student I got the following error:

What am I doing wrong?
I solved this issue. I mapped Getter instead of field.
public class StudentTClass {
//#EmbeddedId
private StudentTClassPK pk = new StudentTClassPK();
#EmbeddedId
public StudentTClassPK getPk() {
return pk;
}
If you can, I'd seriously suggest removing the composite keys. Worth with simple primary keys can both make a lot of problems go away and simplify your code. I have used composite keys in a database in the past because I had no ability to modify the db. Unfortunately I don't have the code. But I do remember it took some work to get it all working correctly. Sorry, can't help more.
