Spring Security get user list by role

In my Spring project, I use Spring Security. I have two entities User and UserRole in relation one-to-many. In entities, this relation is unidirectional. I want to get a list of users with Admin role, for example.
My entities:
#Entity
#Table(name = "users")
public class User implements Serializable {
#JoinColumn(name = "userId")
#OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL, fetch = FetchType.EAGER)
private Set<UserRole> userRoleSet;
}
#Entity
#Table(name = "user_roles")
public class UserRole implements Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
#Id
#GeneratedValue
#Column(name = "id")
private Long id;
#Column(name = "name", nullable = false, unique = true, length = 40)
private String name;
}
I use Spring Data. My query is invoked in the method:
#Override
#Transactional(readOnly = true)
public List<User> getAdminList(String username) {
UserRole userRole = new UserRole("ROLE_ADMIN");
return userDao.getAdminList(userRole, username);
}
and the query looks like this:
#Query("select u from User u where :role member of u.userRoleSet and u.username <> :username")
List<User> getAdminList(#Param("role") UserRole userRole, #Param("username") String username);
I try to get users with Admin role using member of expression, but it doesn't work. I get the following exception:
org.springframework.dao.InvalidDataAccessApiUsageException: org.hibernate.TransientObjectException: object references an unsaved transient instance - save the transient instance before flushing: pl.ibank.model.UserRole; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalStateException: org.hibernate.TransientObjectException: object references an unsaved transient instance - save the transient instance before flushing: pl.ibank.model.UserRole

How can I get a user list by role? Earlier I had a bidirectional relation between my entities and everything works fine, but I think that the bidirectional relation is not necessary in this case. How can I solve it with the unidirectional relation?

Try this
#Query("SELECT u FROM User u WHERE u.id IN (SELECT ur.userId FROM UserRole ur WHERE ur.name = :role)")
List<User> getAdminList(#Param("role") String userRole);
And
#Override
#Transactional(readOnly = true)
public List<User> getAdminList() {
String roleName = "ROLE_ADMIN";
return userDao.getAdminList(roleName);
}
Moreover you should refactor your code because naming a method getAdminList and set the role name as parameter is wrong, it should be named something like getUserListByRoleName(String roleName)
EDIT
You should also consider having three tables like : users, user_roles and roles
because now you will duplicate same roles for different users

HIbernate 4 child entry primary key start with zero

I am starter in Hibernate & Spring MVC and struggling to find correct solution to my problem.I have parent Table (Client)and child table (Availability).
Following is my structure. I am collecting client details and its available days.
#Entity
#Table(name = "client")
public class Client implements Serializable {
#Id
#GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
#Column(name = "id")
private Long id;
#Column(name = "name", nullable = false)
private String name;
#IndexColumn(name = "id")
#OneToMany(targetEntity = Availability.class, mappedBy = "client", cascade = CascadeType.ALL, fetch = FetchType.EAGER, orphanRemoval=true)
private List<Availability> availableDays = new ArrayList<>(7);
//default constructor, setters and getters
}
and
#Entity
#Table(name = "availability")
public class Availability implements Serializable {
#Id
#GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
private Long id;
#NotNull
#Enumerated(EnumType.STRING)
#Column(name = "running_day", columnDefinition = "enum('SUNDAY', 'MONDAY', 'TUESDAY', 'WEDNESDAY', 'THURSDAY', 'FRIDAY', 'SATURDAY')")
private Days day;
#ManyToOne(targetEntity = Client.class, optional = false)
#JoinColumn(name = "fk_client")
private Client client;
//default constructor, setters and getters
}
When I try to insert the first client entry and its list of available days the parent table and child table inserted successfully, the data in table as
client
id name
1 first client
2 secondclient
availability
id running_day fk_client
0 sunday 1
1 monday 1
here the child table entry primary key started with zero.
When I added the second row I got the error as

This problem started when I upgraded my hibernate version with 4.3.10.Final.It was working fine when I used hibernate 3.6.10. Is there any version problem or a problem with my logic? Please help me in this.

#IndexColumn(name = "id") is the problem here. You should not use that with id column.
Just use #OrderColumn and it will create another column (for example: client_order) for the ordering purposes. Use name attribute if you want to set the name by yourself.
Note that you should use #OrderColumn annotation from JPA, as #IndexColumn is deprecated.

Hibernate, #ManyToOne and NullPointerException

We have following error
java.lang.NullPointerException
Fine, I know whats that mean... code
System.out.println(objectC.getObjectB().getObjectA()); //console show for example com.project.ObjectA#6b, anyway it works
if(objectC.getObjectB().getObjectA() != null) {
ObjectD objectD = new ObjectD();
objectD.setObjectA(objectC.getObjectB().getObjectA()); //is here error NullPointer
}
What is wrong?
Below is the code and ideas.
Object A contains multiple Objects B
Object B contains the Object A
Object B contains multiple objects C
Object C contains the Object B
Object D contains the Object A
In the above example, I have object C, which is already assigned to B object and that object A. Object C contains information about the object A (thanks by lazy fetching), which is needed to create the object D.
Mapping
Object A
#OneToMany(fetch = FetchType.LAZY, mappedBy = "objectA", cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
public Set<ObjectD> getObjectDs() {
return this.Ds;
}
#OneToMany(fetch = FetchType.LAZY, mappedBy = "objectA", cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
public Set<ObjectB> getObjectBs() {
return this.Bs;
}
---
Object B
#ManyToOne(fetch = FetchType.LAZY)
#JoinColumn(name = "OBJECTAID", nullable = false)
public ObjectA getObjectA() {
return this.A;
}
#OneToMany(fetch = FetchType.LAZY, mappedBy = "objectB", cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
public Set<ObjectC> getObjectCs() {
return this.Cs;
}
---
Object C
#ManyToOne(fetch = FetchType.LAZY)
#JoinColumn(name = "OBJECTBID", nullable = true)
public ObjectB getObjectB() {
return this.B;
}
---
Object D
#ManyToOne(fetch = FetchType.LAZY)
#JoinColumn(name = "OBJECTAID", nullable = false)
public ObjectA getObjectA() {
return this.A;
}
Of course, I skipped some of the methods get/set (for readability...)

Add #Column(nullable = false) to your User.email_address:
#Column(name="email_address", nullable=false)
private String email_address;
As a safety measure, once you do this double-check your database schema (especially if you had Hibernate generate it) and make sure that column is not nullable.
See http://www.mkyong.com/hibernate/hibernate-one-to-one-relationship-example-annotation/ for a good example, though, of a proper one-to-one mapping.
One-to-one mappings are usually DB/code smells. You might want to think if there is a better way (e.g. if you don't actually do anything with the "password ID", then you could collapse all of this into a simple nullable "password" column in the users table).
You can already see a little bit of weirdness in your current design: You do not place a unique constraint on user email addresses, so think how that affects your current password <-> user mapping. Also if the user changes their email, you now have two tables to update and keep in sync. Normally, a one-to-one relationship, if they must exist, shares a primary key in both tables (e.g. password_id == user_id), and doesn't duplicate information (i.e. no email address in password table).

Change
#OneToOne(cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
#JoinColumn(name="email_address", referencedColumnName = "email_address")
private User user;
with
#OneToOne(cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
#JoinColumn(name="user_id")
private User user;

Hibernate sometimes tries to delete the parent, then the child entities instead of the other way around

Update: So after more investigating it appears to actually be related to the fact that only 256 items are being returned. Started a new question here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19085651/getting-a-256-item-limit-with-spring-hibernate-jpa-mysql
We are having an intermittent issue with Spring 3.2.4, Hibernate 4.2.5, mySql 5.5. Every once in awhile (we haven't found out why yet) when removing an aggregate entity, hibernate will send a sql command to first delete the parent, and then try to delete the children.

private SomeOtherItem someOtherItem
}
The sql that get's generated looks something like this:
delete from activeOrder where id = 1;
delete from activeOrderItem where id= 123;
delete from activeOrderItem where id= 124;
delete from activeOrderItem where id= 125;
etc....
This is obviously backwards as we need to delete the items first, and then the order. I got the sql statements from the mysql general log table.
What's weird is that it doesn't do this all the time, only occasionally.
When it happens we get this stack trace:

Any ideas one what we are doing incorrectly, and why this happens? We have a lot of other entities that are mapped in a similar fashion and they've never had an issue like this.

What we need is to make the ActiveOrderItem aware of its parent ActiveOrder. Then, we will use the inverse="true" mapping, instructing the Hibernate, to correctly work with collections during deletion.
See some more explanation here: JPA JoinColumn vs mappedBy, and also here: Hibernate: Annotation one-to-many/many-to-one
the draft of the mapping ActiveOrder:
#OneToMany(cascade= CascadeType.ALL, orphanRemoval = true, fetch = FetchType.LAZY, mappedBy="activeOrder")
#BatchSize(size=25)
private List<ActiveOrderItem> activeOrderItems = new ArrayList<ActiveOrderItem>();
and the ActiveOrderItem:
#ManyToOne
#JoinColumn(name="activeOrder_id")
private ActiveOrder activeOrder;
The rest will be done for us by Hibernate, see the 11.10. Flushing the Session to get more details about the ORDER of the session flushing (during deletion)
