<title>Cross Store support</title>
<para>Sometimes you need to store data in multiple data stores and these
data stores can be of different types. One might be relational while the
other a document store. For this use case we have created a separate module
in the MongoDB support that handles what we call cross-store support. The
current implementation is based on JPA as the driver for the relational
database and we allow select fields in the Entities to be stored in a Mongo
database. In addition to allowing you to store your data in two stores we
also coordinate persistence operations for the non-transactional MongoDB
store with the transaction life-cycle for the relational database.</para>
<section id="mongodb_cross-store-configuration">
<title>Cross Store Configuration</title>
<para>Assuming that you have a working JPA application and would like to
add some cross-store persistence for MongoDB. What do you have to add to
your configuration?</para>
<para>First of all you need to add a dependency on the
<filename>spring-data-mongodb-cross-store</filename> module. Using Maven
this is done by adding a dependency to your pom:</para>
<example>
<title>Example Maven pom.xml with spring-data-mongodb-cross-store
dependency</title>
<programlisting language="xml">&lt;project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd"&gt;
&lt;modelVersion&gt;4.0.0&lt;/modelVersion&gt;
...
&lt;!-- Spring Data --&gt;
&lt;dependency&gt;
&lt;groupId&gt;org.springframework.data&lt;/groupId&gt;
&lt;artifactId&gt;spring-data-mongodb-cross-store&lt;/artifactId&gt;
&lt;version&gt;${spring.data.mongo.version}&lt;/version&gt;
&lt;/dependency&gt;
...
&lt;/project&gt;
</programlisting>
</example>
<para>Once this is done we need to enable AspectJ for the project. The
cross-store support is implemented using AspectJ aspects so by enabling
compile time AspectJ support the cross-store features will become
available to your project. In Maven you would add an additional plugin to
the &lt;build&gt; section of the pom:</para>
<example>
<title>Example Maven pom.xml with AspectJ plugin enabled</title>
<programlisting language="xml">&lt;project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd"&gt;
&lt;modelVersion&gt;4.0.0&lt;/modelVersion&gt;
...
&lt;build&gt;
&lt;plugins&gt;
...
&lt;plugin&gt;
&lt;groupId&gt;org.codehaus.mojo&lt;/groupId&gt;
&lt;artifactId&gt;aspectj-maven-plugin&lt;/artifactId&gt;
&lt;version&gt;1.0&lt;/version&gt;
&lt;dependencies&gt;
&lt;!-- NB: You must use Maven 2.0.9 or above or these are ignored (see MNG-2972) --&gt;
&lt;dependency&gt;
&lt;groupId&gt;org.aspectj&lt;/groupId&gt;
&lt;artifactId&gt;aspectjrt&lt;/artifactId&gt;
&lt;version&gt;${aspectj.version}&lt;/version&gt;
&lt;/dependency&gt;
&lt;dependency&gt;
&lt;groupId&gt;org.aspectj&lt;/groupId&gt;
&lt;artifactId&gt;aspectjtools&lt;/artifactId&gt;
&lt;version&gt;${aspectj.version}&lt;/version&gt;
&lt;/dependency&gt;
&lt;/dependencies&gt;
&lt;executions&gt;
&lt;execution&gt;
&lt;goals&gt;
&lt;goal&gt;compile&lt;/goal&gt;
&lt;goal&gt;test-compile&lt;/goal&gt;
&lt;/goals&gt;
&lt;/execution&gt;
&lt;/executions&gt;
&lt;configuration&gt;
&lt;outxml&gt;true&lt;/outxml&gt;
&lt;aspectLibraries&gt;
&lt;aspectLibrary&gt;
&lt;groupId&gt;org.springframework&lt;/groupId&gt;
&lt;artifactId&gt;spring-aspects&lt;/artifactId&gt;
&lt;/aspectLibrary&gt;
&lt;aspectLibrary&gt;
&lt;groupId&gt;org.springframework.data&lt;/groupId&gt;

&lt;/aspectLibrary&gt;
&lt;/aspectLibraries&gt;

&lt;/configuration&gt;
&lt;/plugin&gt;
...
&lt;/plugins&gt;
&lt;/build&gt;
...
&lt;/project&gt;
</programlisting>

<para>Finally, you need to configure your project to use MongoDB and also
configure the aspects that are used. The following XML snippet should be
added to your application context:</para>

<title>Writing the Cross Store Application</title>
<para>We are assuming that you have a working JPA application so we will
only cover the additional steps needed to persist part of your Entity in
your Mongo database. First you need to identify the field you want
persisted. It should be a domain class and follow the general rules for the
Mongo mapping support covered in previous chapters. The field you want
persisted in MongoDB should be annotated using the
<classname>@RelatedDocument</classname> annotation. That is really all you
need to do!. The cross-store aspects take care of the rest. This includes
marking the field with @Transient so it won't be persisted using JPA,
keeping track of any changes made to the field value and writing them to
the database on successful transaction completion, loading the document
from MongoDB the first time the value is used in your application. Here is
an example of a simple Entity that has a field annotated with
@RelatedEntity.</para>
<example>
<title>Example of Entity with @RelatedDocument</title>
<programlisting language="java">@Entity
public class Customer {
@Id
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
private Long id;
private String firstName;
private String lastName;
@RelatedDocument
private SurveyInfo surveyInfo;
// getters and setters omitted
} </programlisting>
</example>
<example>
<title>Example of domain class to be stored as document</title>
<programlisting language="java">public class SurveyInfo {
private Map&lt;String, String&gt; questionsAndAnswers;
public SurveyInfo() {
this.questionsAndAnswers = new HashMap&lt;String, String&gt;();
}
public SurveyInfo(Map&lt;String, String&gt; questionsAndAnswers) {
this.questionsAndAnswers = questionsAndAnswers;
}
public Map&lt;String, String&gt; getQuestionsAndAnswers() {
return questionsAndAnswers;
}
public void setQuestionsAndAnswers(Map&lt;String, String&gt; questionsAndAnswers) {
this.questionsAndAnswers = questionsAndAnswers;
}
public SurveyInfo addQuestionAndAnswer(String question, String answer) {
this.questionsAndAnswers.put(question, answer);
return this;
}
} </programlisting>
</example>
<para>Once the SurveyInfo has been set on the Customer object above the
MongoTemplate that was configured above is used to save the SurveyInfo
along with some metadata about the JPA Entity is stored in a MongoDB
collection named after the fully qualified name of the JPA Entity class.
The following code:</para>
<example>
<title>Example of code using the JPA Entity configured for cross-store
persistence</title>
<programlisting language="java"> Customer customer = new Customer();
customer.setFirstName("Sven");
customer.setLastName("Olafsen");
SurveyInfo surveyInfo = new SurveyInfo()
.addQuestionAndAnswer("age", "22")
.addQuestionAndAnswer("married", "Yes")
.addQuestionAndAnswer("citizenship", "Norwegian");
customer.setSurveyInfo(surveyInfo);
customerRepository.save(customer);
</programlisting>
</example>
<para>Executing the code above results in the following JSON document
stored in MongoDB.</para>
<example>
<title>Example of JSON document stored in MongoDB</title>
<programlisting language="java">{ "_id" : ObjectId( "4d9e8b6e3c55287f87d4b79e" ),

<para>Rich mapping support is provided by the
<classname>MongoMappingConverter</classname>.
<classname>MongoMappingConverter</classname> has a rich metadata model that
provides a full feature set of functionality to map domain objects to
MongoDB documents.The mapping metadata model is populated using annotations
on your domain objects. However, the infrastructure is not limited to using
annotations as the only source of metadata information. The
<classname>MongoMappingConverter</classname> also allows you to map objects
to documents without providing any additional metadata, by following a set
of conventions.</para>
<para>In this section we will describe the features of the
MongoMappingConverter. How to use conventions for mapping objects to
documents and how to override those conventions with annotation based
mapping metadata.</para>

<section id="mapping-conventions">
<title>Convention based Mapping</title>
<para><classname>MongoMappingConverter</classname> has a few conventions
for mapping objects to documents when no additional mapping metadata is
provided. The conventions are:</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>The short Java class name is mapped to the collection name in
the following manner. The class
'<classname>com.bigbank.SavingsAccount</classname>' maps to
'<literal>savingsAccount</literal>' collection name.</para>

<para>The converter will use any Spring Converters registered with it
to override the default mapping of object properties to document
field/values.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>The fields of an object are used to convert to and from fields
in the document. Public JavaBean properties are not used.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>You can have a single non-zero argument constructor whose
constructor argument names match top level field names of document,
that constructor will be used. Otherwise the zero arg constructor will
be used. if there is more than one non-zero argument constructor an
exception will be thrown.</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
<section id="mapping.conventions.id-field">
<title>How the '_id' field is handled in the mapping layer</title>
<para>MongoDB requires that you have an '_id' field for all documents.
If you don't provide one the driver will assign a ObjectId with a
generated value. The "_id" field can be of any type the, other than
arrays, so long as it is unique. The driver naturally supports all
primitive types and Dates. When using the
<classname>MongoMappingConverter</classname> there are certain rules
that govern how properties from the Java class is mapped to this '_id'
field.</para>
<para>The following outlines what field will be mapped to the '_id'
document field:</para>
<para><itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>A field annotated with <classname>@Id</classname>
(<classname>org.springframework.data.annotation.Id</classname>)
will be mapped to the '_id' field.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>A field without an annotation but named
<classname>id</classname> will be mapped to the '_id'
field.</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist></para>
<para>The following outlines what type conversion, if any, will be done
on the property mapped to the _id document field.</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>If a field named 'id' is declared as a String or BigInteger in
the Java class it will be converted to and stored as an ObjectId if
possible. ObjectId as a field type is also valid. If you specify a
value for 'id' in your application, the conversion to an ObjectId is
detected to the MongoDBdriver. If the specified 'id' value cannot be
converted to an ObjectId, then the value will be stored as is in the
document's _id field.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>If a field named ' id' id field is not declared as a String,
BigInteger, or ObjectID in the Java class then you should assign it
a value in your application so it can be stored 'as-is' in the
document's _id field.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>If no field named 'id' is present in the Java class then an
implicit '_id' file will be generated by the driver but not mapped
to a property or field of the Java class.</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
<para>When querying and updating <classname>MongoTemplate</classname>
will use the converter to handle conversions of the
<classname>Query</classname> and <classname>Update</classname> objects
that correspond to the above rules for saving documents so field names
and types used in your queries will be able to match what is in your
domain classes.</para>

<section id="mapping-configuration">
<title>Mapping Configuration</title>
<para>Unless explicitly configured, an instance of
<classname>MongoMappingConverter</classname> is created by default when
creating a <classname>MongoTemplate</classname>. You can create your own
instance of the <classname>MappingMongoConverter</classname> so as to tell
it where to scan the classpath at startup your domain classes in order to
extract metadata and construct indexes. Also, by creating your own
instance you can register Spring converters to use for mapping specific
classes to and from the database.</para>
<para>You can configure the <classname>MongoMappingConverter</classname>
as well as <classname>com.mongodb.Mongo</classname> and MongoTemplate
either using Java or XML based metadata. Here is an example using Spring's
Java based configuration</para>
<example>
<title>@Configuration class to configure MongoDB mapping support</title>

<section id="mapping-usage">
<title>Metadata based Mapping</title>
<para>To take full advantage of the object mapping functionality inside
the Spring Data/MongoDB support, you should annotate your mapped objects
with the
<classname>@org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.mapping.Document</classname>
annotation. Although it is not necessary for the mapping framework to have
this annotation (your POJOs will be mapped correctly, even without any
annotations), it allows the classpath scanner to find and pre-process your
domain objects to extract the necessary metadata. If you don't use this
annotation, your application will take a slight performance hit the first
time you store a domain object because the mapping framework needs to
build up its internal metadata model so it knows about the properties of
your domain object and how to persist them.</para>
<example>
<title>Example domain object</title>
<programlisting language="java">package com.mycompany.domain;
@Document
public class Person {
@Id
private ObjectId id;
@Indexed
private Integer ssn;
private String firstName;
@Indexed
private String lastName;
}
</programlisting>
</example>
<important>
<para>The <classname>@Id</classname> annotation tells the mapper which
property you want to use for the MongoDB <code>_id</code> property and
the <classname>@Indexed</classname> annotation tells the mapping
framework to call <code>ensureIndex</code> on that property of your
document, making searches faster.</para>
</important>

<para>Automatic index creation is only done for types annotated with
<classname>@Document</classname>.</para>

</listitem>
<listitem>
<para><literal>@Language</literal> - applied at the field level to
set the language override property for text index.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para><literal>@Transient</literal> - by default all private fields
are mapped to the document, this annotation excludes the field where
it is applied from being stored in the database</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para><literal>@PersistenceConstructor</literal> - marks a given
constructor - even a package protected one - to use when
instantiating the object from the database. Constructor arguments
are mapped by name to the key values in the retrieved
DBObject.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para><literal>@Value</literal> - this annotation is part of the
Spring Framework . Within the mapping framework it can be applied to
constructor arguments. This lets you use a Spring Expression
Language statement to transform a key's value retrieved in the
database before it is used to construct a domain object. In order to
reference a property of a given document one has to use expressions
like: <code>@Value("#root.myProperty")</code> where
<literal>root</literal> refers to the root of the given
document.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para><literal>@Field</literal> - applied at the field level and
described the name of the field as it will be represented in the
MongoDB BSON document thus allowing the name to be different than
the fieldname of the class.</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
<para>The mapping metadata infrastructure is defined in a seperate
spring-data-commons project that is technology agnostic. Specific
subclasses are using in the MongoDB support to support annotation based
metadata. Other strategies are also possible to put in place if there is
demand.</para>

<para>Creating a text index allows to accumulate several fields into a

per collection so all fields marked with
<interfacename>@TextIndexed</interfacename> are combined into this
index. Properties can be weighted to influence document score for
ranking results. The default language for the text index is english, to
change the default language set
<interfacename>@Document(language="spanish")</interfacename> to any
language you want. Using a property called <literal>language</literal>

override on a per document base.</para>

</section>
<section id="mapping-usage-references">
<title>Using DBRefs</title>
<para>The mapping framework doesn't have to store child objects embedded
within the document. You can also store them separately and use a DBRef
to refer to that document. When the object is loaded from MongoDB, those
references will be eagerly resolved and you will get back a mapped
object that looks the same as if it had been stored embedded within your
master document.</para>
<para>Here's an example of using a DBRef to refer to a specific document
that exists independently of the object in which it is referenced (both
classes are shown in-line for brevity's sake):</para>
<example>
<programlisting language="java">
@Document
public class Account {
@Id
private ObjectId id;
private Float total;
}
@Document
public class Person {
@Id
private ObjectId id;
@Indexed
private Integer ssn;
@DBRef
private List&lt;Account&gt; accounts;
}
</programlisting>
</example>
<para>There's no need to use something like <code>@OneToMany</code>
because the mapping framework sees that you're wanting a one-to-many
relationship because there is a List of objects. When the object is
stored in MongoDB, there will be a list of DBRefs rather than the
<code>Account</code> objects themselves. <important>
<para>The mapping framework does not handle cascading saves. If you
change an <code>Account</code> object that is referenced by a
<code>Person</code> object, you must save the Account object
separately. Calling <code>save</code> on the <code>Person</code>
object will not automatically save the <code>Account</code> objects
in the property <code>accounts</code>.</para>

<para>When storing and querying your objects it is convenient to have a
<interfacename>MongoConverter</interfacename> instance handle the
mapping of all Java types to DBObjects. However, sometimes you may want
the <interfacename>MongoConverter</interfacename>'s do most of the work
but allow you to selectivly handle the conversion for a particular type
or to optimize performance.</para>
<para>To selectivly handle the conversion yourself, register one or more
one or more
<classname>org.springframework.core.convert.converter.Converter</classname>
instances with the MongoConverter.</para>
<note>
<para>Spring 3.0 introduced a core.convert package that provides a
general type conversion system. This is described in detail in the
Spring reference documentation section entitled <ulink
url="http://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/3.2.x/spring-framework-reference/html/validation.html#core-convert">Spring
3 Type Conversion</ulink>.</para>
</note>
<para>The method <methodname>customConversions</methodname> in
<classname>AbstractMongoConfiguration</classname> can be used to
configure Converters. The examples <link
linkend="mapping-configuration">here</link> at the begining of this
chapter show how to perform the configuration using Java and XML.</para>
<para>Below is an example of a Spring Converter implementation that
converts from a DBObject to a Person POJO.</para>

<title>MongoDB repositories</title>
<section id="mongo-repo-intro">
<title>Introduction</title>
<para>This chapter will point out the specialties for repository support
for MongoDB. This builds on the core repository support explained in <xref
linkend="repositories"/>. So make sure you've got a sound understanding of
the basic concepts explained there.</para>
</section>
<section id="mongo-repo-usage">
<title>Usage</title>
<para>To access domain entities stored in a MongoDB you can leverage our
sophisticated repository support that eases implementing those quite
significantly. To do so, simply create an interface for your
repository:</para>
<example>
<title>Sample Person entity</title>
<programlisting language="java">public class Person {
@Id
private String id;
private String firstname;
private String lastname;
private Address address;
// … getters and setters omitted
}
</programlisting>
</example>
<para>We have a quite simple domain object here. Note that it has a
property named <code>id</code> of type<classname>ObjectId</classname>. The
default serialization mechanism used in
<classname>MongoTemplate</classname> (which is backing the repository
support) regards properties named id as document id. Currently we
support<classname>String</classname>, <classname>ObjectId</classname> and
<classname>BigInteger</classname> as id-types.</para>
<example>
<title>Basic repository interface to persist Person entities</title>
<programlisting>public interface PersonRepository extends PagingAndSortingRepository&lt;Person, Long&gt; {
// additional custom finder methods go here
}
</programlisting>
</example>
<para>Right now this interface simply serves typing purposes but we will
add additional methods to it later. In your Spring configuration simply
add</para>
<example>
<title>General MongoDB repository Spring configuration</title>
<programlisting language="xml">&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt;
&lt;beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:mongo="http://www.springframework.org/schema/data/mongo"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/data/mongo
http://www.springframework.org/schema/data/mongo/spring-mongo-1.0.xsd"&gt;
&lt;mongo:mongo id="mongo" /&gt;
&lt;bean id="mongoTemplate" class="org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.MongoTemplate"&gt;
&lt;constructor-arg ref="mongo" /&gt;
&lt;constructor-arg value="databaseName" /&gt;
&lt;/bean&gt;
&lt;mongo:repositories base-package="com.acme.*.repositories" /&gt;
&lt;/beans&gt;</programlisting>
</example>
<para>This namespace element will cause the base packages to be scanned
for interfaces extending <interfacename>MongoRepository</interfacename>
and create Spring beans for each of them found. By default the
repositories will get a <classname>MongoTemplate</classname> Spring bean
wired that is called <code>mongoTemplate</code>, so you only need to
configure <code>mongo-template-ref</code> explicitly if you deviate from
this convention.</para>
<para>If you'd rather like to go with JavaConfig use the
<interfacename>@EnableMongoRepositories</interfacename> annotation. The
annotation carries the very same attributes like the namespace element. If
no base package is configured the infrastructure will scan the package of
the annotated configuration class.</para>
<example>
<title>JavaConfig for repositories</title>
<programlisting id="id2371855_07-mongodb" language="java">@Configuration
@EnableMongoRepositories
class ApplicationConfig extends AbstractMongoConfiguration {
@Override
protected String getDatabaseName() {
return "e-store";
}
@Override
public Mongo mongo() throws Exception {
return new Mongo();
}
@Override
protected String getMappingBasePackage() {
return "com.oreilly.springdata.mongodb"
}
}</programlisting>
</example>
<para>As our domain repository extends
<interfacename>PagingAndSortingRepository</interfacename> it provides you
with CRUD operations as well as methods for paginated and sorted access to
the entities. Working with the repository instance is just a matter of
dependency injecting it into a client. So accessing the second page of
<classname>Person</classname>s at a page size of 10 would simply look
something like this:</para>
<example>
<title>Paging access to Person entities</title>
<programlisting language="java">@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration
public class PersonRepositoryTests {
@Autowired PersonRepository repository;
@Test
public void readsFirstPageCorrectly() {
Page&lt;Person&gt; persons = repository.findAll(new PageRequest(0, 10));
assertThat(persons.isFirstPage(), is(true));
}
} </programlisting>
</example>
<para>The sample creates an application context with Spring's unit test
support which will perform annotation based dependency injection into test
cases. Inside the test method we simply use the repository to query the
datastore. We hand the repository a <classname>PageRequest</classname>
instance that requests the first page of persons at a page size of
10.</para>
</section>
<section id="mongodb.repositories.queries">
<title>Query methods</title>
<para>Most of the data access operations you usually trigger on a
repository result a query being executed against the MongoDB databases.
Defining such a query is just a matter of declaring a method on the
repository interface</para>
<example>
<title>PersonRepository with query methods</title>
<programlisting language="java">public interface PersonRepository extends PagingAndSortingRepository&lt;Person, String&gt; {
List&lt;Person&gt; findByLastname(String lastname);
Page&lt;Person&gt; findByFirstname(String firstname, Pageable pageable);
Person findByShippingAddresses(Address address);
} </programlisting>
</example>
<para>The first method shows a query for all people with the given
lastname. The query will be derived parsing the method name for
constraints which can be concatenated with <literal>And</literal> and
<literal>Or</literal>. Thus the method name will result in a query
expression of<code>{"lastname" : lastname}</code>. The second example
shows how pagination is applied to a query. Just equip your method
signature with a <interfacename>Pageable</interfacename> parameter and let
the method return a <interfacename>Page</interfacename> instance and we
will automatically page the query accordingly. The third examples shows
that you can query based on properties which are not a primitive
type.</para>
<note>
<para>Note that for version 1.0 we currently don't support referring to
parameters that are mapped as <classname>DBRef</classname> in the domain
class.</para>

<section id="mongodb.repositories.queries.delete">
<title>Repository delete queries</title>
<para>The above keywords can be used in conjunciton with
<code>delete…By</code> or <code>remove…By</code> to create queries
deleting matching documents.</para>
<example>
<title><code>Delete…By</code> Query</title>
<programlisting language="java">public interface PersonRepository extends MongoRepository&lt;Person, String&gt; {
List &lt;Person&gt; deleteByLastname(String lastname);
Long deletePersonByLastname(String lastname);
}</programlisting>
</example>
<para>Using return type <interfacename>List</interfacename> will
retrieve and return all matching documents before actually deleting
them. A numeric return type directly removes the matching documents
returning the total number of documents removed.</para>
</section>
<section id="mongodb.repositories.queries.geo-spatial">
<title>Geo-spatial repository queries</title>
<para>As you've just seen there are a few keywords triggering
geo-spatial operations within a MongoDB query. The <code>Near</code>
keyword allows some further modification. Let's have look at some
examples:</para>
<example>
<title>Advanced <code>Near</code> queries</title>
<programlisting language="java">public interface PersonRepository extends MongoRepository&lt;Person, String&gt;
// { 'location' : { '$near' : [point.x, point.y], '$maxDistance' : distance}}
List&lt;Person&gt; findByLocationNear(Point location, Distance distance);
}</programlisting>
</example>
<para>Adding a <classname>Distance</classname> parameter to the query
method allows restricting results to those within the given distance. If
the <classname>Distance</classname> was set up containing a
<interfacename>Metric</interfacename> we will transparently use
<code>$nearSphere</code> instead of $code.</para>
<example>
<title>Using <code>Distance</code> with <code>Metrics</code></title>
<programlisting language="java">Point point = new Point(43.7, 48.8);
Distance distance = new Distance(200, Metrics.KILOMETERS);
… = repository.findByLocationNear(point, distance);
// {'location' : {'$nearSphere' : [43.7, 48.8], '$maxDistance' : 0.03135711885774796}}</programlisting>
</example>
<para>As you can see using a <classname>Distance</classname> equipped
with a <interfacename>Metric</interfacename> causes
<code>$nearSphere</code> clause to be added instead of a plain
<code>$near</code>. Beyond that the actual distance gets calculated
according to the <classname>Metrics</classname> used.</para>
<simplesect>
<title>Geo-near queries</title>
<para/>
<programlisting language="java">public interface PersonRepository extends MongoRepository&lt;Person, String&gt;
// {'geoNear' : 'location', 'near' : [x, y] }
GeoResults&lt;Person&gt; findByLocationNear(Point location);
// No metric: {'geoNear' : 'person', 'near' : [x, y], maxDistance : distance }
// Metric: {'geoNear' : 'person', 'near' : [x, y], 'maxDistance' : distance,
// 'distanceMultiplier' : metric.multiplier, 'spherical' : true }
GeoResults&lt;Person&gt; findByLocationNear(Point location, Distance distance);
// {'geoNear' : 'location', 'near' : [x, y] }
GeoResults&lt;Person&gt; findByLocationNear(Point location);
}</programlisting>
</simplesect>
</section>
<section id="mongodb.repositories.queries.json-based">
<title>MongoDB JSON based query methods and field restriction</title>
<para>By adding the annotation
<classname>org.springframework.data.mongodb.repository.Query</classname>
repository finder methods you can specify a MongoDB JSON query string to
use instead of having the query derived from the method name. For
example</para>
<programlisting language="java">public interface PersonRepository extends MongoRepository&lt;Person, String&gt;
@Query("{ 'firstname' : ?0 }")
List&lt;Person&gt; findByThePersonsFirstname(String firstname);
}</programlisting>
<para>The placeholder ?0 lets you substitute the value from the method
arguments into the JSON query string.</para>
<para>You can also use the filter property to restrict the set of
properties that will be mapped into the Java object. For example,</para>
<programlisting language="java">public interface PersonRepository extends MongoRepository&lt;Person, String&gt;
@Query(value="{ 'firstname' : ?0 }", fields="{ 'firstname' : 1, 'lastname' : 1}")
List&lt;Person&gt; findByThePersonsFirstname(String firstname);
}</programlisting>
<para>This will return only the firstname, lastname and Id properties of
the Person objects. The age property, a java.lang.Integer, will not be
set and its value will therefore be null.</para>
</section>
<section id="mongodb.repositories.queries.type-safe">
<title>Type-safe Query methods</title>
<para>MongoDB repository support integrates with the <ulink
url="http://www.querydsl.com/">QueryDSL</ulink> project which provides a
means to perform type-safe queries in Java. To quote from the project
description, "Instead of writing queries as inline strings or
externalizing them into XML files they are constructed via a fluent
API." It provides the following features</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>Code completion in IDE (all properties, methods and operations
can be expanded in your favorite Java IDE)</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>Almost no syntactically invalid queries allowed (type-safe on
all levels)</para>

<listitem>
<para>Adopts better to refactoring changes in domain types</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>Incremental query definition is easier</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
<para>Please refer to the QueryDSL documentation which describes how to
bootstrap your environment for APT based code generation <ulink

<para>Using QueryDSL you will be able to write queries as shown
below</para>
<programlisting language="java">QPerson person = new QPerson("person");
List&lt;Person&gt; result = repository.findAll(person.address.zipCode.eq("C0123"));
Page&lt;Person&gt; page = repository.findAll(person.lastname.contains("a"),
new PageRequest(0, 2, Direction.ASC, "lastname"));</programlisting>
<para><classname>QPerson</classname> is a class that is generated (via
the Java annotation post processing tool) which is a
<classname>Predicate</classname> that allows you to write type safe
queries. Notice that there are no strings in the query other than the
value "C0123".</para>
<para>You can use the generated <classname>Predicate</classname> class
via the interface
<interfacename>QueryDslPredicateExecutor</interfacename> which is shown
below</para>
<programlisting language="java">public interface QueryDslPredicateExecutor&lt;T&gt; {
T findOne(Predicate predicate);
List&lt;T&gt; findAll(Predicate predicate);
List&lt;T&gt; findAll(Predicate predicate, OrderSpecifier&lt;?&gt;... orders);
Page&lt;T&gt; findAll(Predicate predicate, Pageable pageable);
Long count(Predicate predicate);
}
</programlisting>
<para>To use this in your repository implementation, simply inherit from
it in addition to other repository interfaces. This is shown
below</para>
<programlisting lang="" language="java">public interface PersonRepository extends MongoRepository&lt;Person, String&gt;, QueryDslPredicateExecutor&lt;Person&gt; {
// additional finder methods go here

<para>We think you will find this an extremely powerful tool for writing
MongoDB queries.</para>

<title>Miscellaneous</title>
<para/>
<section id="mongodb.repositories.misc.cdi-integration">
<title>CDI Integration</title>
<para>Instances of the repository interfaces are usually created by a
container, which Spring is the most natural choice when working with
Spring Data. As of version 1.3.0 Spring Data MongoDB ships with a custom
CDI extension that allows using the repository abstraction in CDI
environments. The extension is part of the JAR so all you need to do to
activate it is dropping the Spring Data MongoDB JAR into your classpath.
You can now set up the infrastructure by implementing a CDI Producer for
the <classname>MongoTemplate</classname>:</para>
<programlisting language="java">class MongoTemplateProducer {
@Produces
@ApplicationScoped
public MongoOperations createMongoTemplate() throws UnknownHostException, MongoException {
MongoDbFactory factory = new SimpleMongoDbFactory(new Mongo(), "database");
return new MongoTemplate(factory);
}
}</programlisting>
<para>The Spring Data MongoDB CDI extension will pick up the
<classname>MongoTemplate</classname> available as CDI bean and create a
proxy for a Spring Data repository whenever an bean of a repository type
is requested by the container. Thus obtaining an instance of a Spring
Data repository is a matter of declaring an <code>@Inject</code>-ed
property:</para>
<programlisting language="java">class RepositoryClient {
@Inject
PersonRepository repository;
public void businessMethod() {
List&lt;Person&gt; people = repository.findAll();
}
}</programlisting>

= Introduction
This document is the reference guide for Spring Data - Document Support. It explains Document module concepts and semantics and the syntax for various stores namespaces.
This section provides some basic introduction to Spring and Document database. The rest of the document refers only to Spring Data Document features and assumes the user is familiar with document databases such as MongoDB and CouchDB as well as Spring concepts.
[[get-started:first-steps:spring]]
== Knowing Spring
Spring Data uses Spring framework's http://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/3.2.x/spring-framework-reference/html/spring-core.html[core] functionality, such as the http://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/3.2.x/spring-framework-reference/html/beans.html[IoC] container, http://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/3.2.x/spring-framework-reference/html/validation.html#core-convert[type conversion system], http://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/3.2.x/spring-framework-reference/html/expressions.html[expression language], http://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/3.2.x/spring-framework-reference/html/jmx.html[JMX integration], and portable http://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/3.2.x/spring-framework-reference/html/dao.html#dao-exceptions[DAO exception hierarchy]. While it is not important to know the Spring APIs, understanding the concepts behind them is. At a minimum, the idea behind IoC should be familiar for whatever IoC container you choose to use.
The core functionality of the MongoDB and CouchDB support can be used directly, with no need to invoke the IoC services of the Spring Container. This is much like `JdbcTemplate` which can be used 'standalone' without any other services of the Spring container. To leverage all the features of Spring Data document, such as the repository support, you will need to configure some parts of the library using Spring.
To learn more about Spring, you can refer to the comprehensive (and sometimes disarming) documentation that explains in detail the Spring Framework. There are a lot of articles, blog entries and books on the matter - take a look at the Spring framework http://spring.io/docs[home page ] for more information.

== Knowing NoSQL and Document databases
NoSQL stores have taken the storage world by storm. It is a vast domain with a plethora of solutions, terms and patterns (to make things worth even the term itself has multiple http://www.google.com/search?q=nosoql+acronym[meanings]). While some of the principles are common, it is crucial that the user is familiar to some degree with the stores supported by DATADOC. The best way to get acquainted to this solutions is to read their documentation and follow their examples - it usually doesn't take more then 5-10 minutes to go through them and if you are coming from an RDMBS-only background many times these exercises can be an eye opener.
The jumping off ground for learning about MongoDB is http://www.mongodb.org/[www.mongodb.org]. Here is a list of other useful resources:
* The http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/[manual] introduces MongoDB and contains links to getting started guides, reference documentation and tutorials.
* The http://try.mongodb.org/[online shell] provides a convenient way to interact with a MongoDB instance in combination with the online http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/getting-started/[tutorial.]
* MongoDB http://docs.mongodb.org/ecosystem/drivers/java/[Java Language Center]

[[mongo.cross.store]]
= Cross Store support
Sometimes you need to store data in multiple data stores and these data stores can be of different types. One might be relational while the other a document store. For this use case we have created a separate module in the MongoDB support that handles what we call cross-store support. The current implementation is based on JPA as the driver for the relational database and we allow select fields in the Entities to be stored in a Mongo database. In addition to allowing you to store your data in two stores we also coordinate persistence operations for the non-transactional MongoDB store with the transaction life-cycle for the relational database.
[[mongodb_cross-store-configuration]]
== Cross Store Configuration
Assuming that you have a working JPA application and would like to add some cross-store persistence for MongoDB. What do you have to add to your configuration?
First of all you need to add a dependency on the module. Using Maven this is done by adding a dependency to your pom:
=== Example Maven pom.xml with spring-data-mongodb-cross-store dependency
[source,xml]
----
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
...
<!-- Spring Data -->
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.data</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-data-mongodb-cross-store</artifactId>
<version>${spring.data.mongo.version}</version>
</dependency>
...
</project>
----
Once this is done we need to enable AspectJ for the project. The cross-store support is implemented using AspectJ aspects so by enabling compile time AspectJ support the cross-store features will become available to your project. In Maven you would add an additional plugin to the <build> section of the pom:
=== Example Maven pom.xml with AspectJ plugin enabled

[[mongodb_cross-store-application]]
== Writing the Cross Store Application
We are assuming that you have a working JPA application so we will only cover the additional steps needed to persist part of your Entity in your Mongo database. First you need to identify the field you want persisted. It should be a domain class and follow the general rules for the Mongo mapping support covered in previous chapters. The field you want persisted in MongoDB should be annotated using the `@RelatedDocument` annotation. That is really all you need to do!. The cross-store aspects take care of the rest. This includes marking the field with `@Transient` so it won't be persisted using JPA, keeping track of any changes made to the field value and writing them to the database on successful transaction completion, loading the document from MongoDB the first time the value is used in your application. Here is an example of a simple Entity that has a field annotated with `@RelatedEntity`.
=== Example of Entity with @RelatedDocument
[source,java]
----
@Entity
public class Customer {
@Id
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
private Long id;
private String firstName;
private String lastName;
@RelatedDocument
private SurveyInfo surveyInfo;
// getters and setters omitted
}
----
=== Example of domain class to be stored as document
[source,java]
----
public class SurveyInfo {
private Map<String, String> questionsAndAnswers;
public SurveyInfo() {
this.questionsAndAnswers = new HashMap<String, String>();
}
public SurveyInfo(Map<String, String> questionsAndAnswers) {
this.questionsAndAnswers = questionsAndAnswers;
}
public Map<String, String> getQuestionsAndAnswers() {
return questionsAndAnswers;
}
public void setQuestionsAndAnswers(Map<String, String> questionsAndAnswers) {
this.questionsAndAnswers = questionsAndAnswers;
}
public SurveyInfo addQuestionAndAnswer(String question, String answer) {
this.questionsAndAnswers.put(question, answer);
return this;
}
}
----
Once the SurveyInfo has been set on the Customer object above the MongoTemplate that was configured above is used to save the SurveyInfo along with some metadata about the JPA Entity is stored in a MongoDB collection named after the fully qualified name of the JPA Entity class. The following code:
=== Example of code using the JPA Entity configured for cross-store persistence
[source,java]
----
Customer customer = new Customer();
customer.setFirstName("Sven");
customer.setLastName("Olafsen");
SurveyInfo surveyInfo = new SurveyInfo()
.addQuestionAndAnswer("age", "22")
.addQuestionAndAnswer("married", "Yes")
.addQuestionAndAnswer("citizenship", "Norwegian");
customer.setSurveyInfo(surveyInfo);
customerRepository.save(customer);
----
Executing the code above results in the following JSON document stored in MongoDB.
=== Example of JSON document stored in MongoDB
[source,javascript]
----
{ "_id" : ObjectId( "4d9e8b6e3c55287f87d4b79e" ),
"_entity_id" : 1,
"_entity_class" : "org.springframework.data.mongodb.examples.custsvc.domain.Customer",
"_entity_field_name" : "surveyInfo",
"questionsAndAnswers" : { "married" : "Yes",
"age" : "22",
"citizenship" : "Norwegian" },
"_entity_field_class" : "org.springframework.data.mongodb.examples.custsvc.domain.SurveyInfo" }

[[mapping-chapter]]
= Mapping
Rich mapping support is provided by the `MongoMappingConverter`. `MongoMappingConverter` has a rich metadata model that provides a full feature set of functionality to map domain objects to MongoDB documents.The mapping metadata model is populated using annotations on your domain objects. However, the infrastructure is not limited to using annotations as the only source of metadata information. The `MongoMappingConverter` also allows you to map objects to documents without providing any additional metadata, by following a set of conventions.
In this section we will describe the features of the `MongoMappingConverter`. How to use conventions for mapping objects to documents and how to override those conventions with annotation based mapping metadata.
NOTE: `SimpleMongoConverter` has been deprecated in Spring Data MongoDB M3 as all of its functionality has been subsumed into `MappingMongoConverter`.
[[mapping-conventions]]
== Convention based Mapping
`MongoMappingConverter` has a few conventions for mapping objects to documents when no additional mapping metadata is provided. The conventions are:
* The short Java class name is mapped to the collection name in the following manner. The class '`com.bigbank.SavingsAccount`' maps to '`savingsAccount`' collection name.
* All nested objects are stored as nested objects in the document and *not* as DBRefs
* The converter will use any Spring Converters registered with it to override the default mapping of object properties to document field/values.
* The fields of an object are used to convert to and from fields in the document. Public JavaBean properties are not used.
* You can have a single non-zero argument constructor whose constructor argument names match top level field names of document, that constructor will be used. Otherwise the zero arg constructor will be used. if there is more than one non-zero argument constructor an exception will be thrown.
[[mapping.conventions.id-field]]
=== How the '_id' field is handled in the mapping layer
MongoDB requires that you have an '_id' field for all documents. If you don't provide one the driver will assign a ObjectId with a generated value. The "_id" field can be of any type the, other than arrays, so long as it is unique. The driver naturally supports all primitive types and Dates. When using the `MongoMappingConverter` there are certain rules that govern how properties from the Java class is mapped to this '_id' field.
The following outlines what field will be mapped to the '_id' document field:
* A field annotated with `@Id` (`org.springframework.data.annotation.Id`) will be mapped to the '_id' field.
* A field without an annotation but named `id` will be mapped to the '_id' field.
The following outlines what type conversion, if any, will be done on the property mapped to the _id document field.
* If a field named 'id' is declared as a String or BigInteger in the Java class it will be converted to and stored as an ObjectId if possible. ObjectId as a field type is also valid. If you specify a value for 'id' in your application, the conversion to an ObjectId is detected to the MongoDBdriver. If the specified 'id' value cannot be converted to an ObjectId, then the value will be stored as is in the document's _id field.
* If a field named ' id' id field is not declared as a String, BigInteger, or ObjectID in the Java class then you should assign it a value in your application so it can be stored 'as-is' in the document's _id field.
* If no field named 'id' is present in the Java class then an implicit '_id' file will be generated by the driver but not mapped to a property or field of the Java class.
When querying and updating `MongoTemplate` will use the converter to handle conversions of the `Query` and `Update` objects that correspond to the above rules for saving documents so field names and types used in your queries will be able to match what is in your domain classes.
[[mapping-configuration]]
== Mapping Configuration
Unless explicitly configured, an instance of `MongoMappingConverter` is created by default when creating a `MongoTemplate`. You can create your own instance of the `MappingMongoConverter` so as to tell it where to scan the classpath at startup your domain classes in order to extract metadata and construct indexes. Also, by creating your own instance you can register Spring converters to use for mapping specific classes to and from the database.
You can configure the `MongoMappingConverter` as well as `com.mongodb.Mongo` and MongoTemplate either using Java or XML based metadata. Here is an example using Spring's Java based configuration
=== @Configuration class to configure MongoDB mapping support
[source,java]
----
@Configuration
public class GeoSpatialAppConfig extends AbstractMongoConfiguration {
@Bean
public Mongo mongo() throws Exception {
return new Mongo("localhost");
}
@Override
public String getDatabaseName() {
return "database";
}
@Override
public String getMappingBasePackage() {
return "com.bigbank.domain";
}
// the following are optional
@Bean
@Override
public CustomConversions customConversions() throws Exception {
List<Converter<?, ?>> converterList = new ArrayList<Converter<?, ?>>();
converterList.add(new org.springframework.data.mongodb.test.PersonReadConverter());
converterList.add(new org.springframework.data.mongodb.test.PersonWriteConverter());
return new CustomConversions(converterList);
}
@Bean
public LoggingEventListener<MongoMappingEvent> mappingEventsListener() {
return new LoggingEventListener<MongoMappingEvent>();
}
}
----
`AbstractMongoConfiguration` requires you to implement methods that define a `com.mongodb.Mongo` as well as provide a database name. `AbstractMongoConfiguration` also has a method you can override named '`getMappingBasePackage`' which tells the converter where to scan for classes annotated with the `@org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.mapping.Document` annotation.
You can add additional converters to the converter by overriding the method afterMappingMongoConverterCreation. Also shown in the above example is a `LoggingEventListener` which logs `MongoMappingEvent`s that are posted onto Spring's `ApplicationContextEvent` infrastructure.
NOTE: AbstractMongoConfiguration will create a MongoTemplate instance and registered with the container under the name 'mongoTemplate'.
You can also override the method `UserCredentials getUserCredentials()` to provide the username and password information to connect to the database.
Spring's MongoDB namespace enables you to easily enable mapping functionality in XML

The `base-package` property tells it where to scan for classes annotated with the `@org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.mapping.Document` annotation.
[[mapping-usage]]
== Metadata based Mapping
To take full advantage of the object mapping functionality inside the Spring Data/MongoDB support, you should annotate your mapped objects with the `@org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.mapping.Document` annotation. Although it is not necessary for the mapping framework to have this annotation (your POJOs will be mapped correctly, even without any annotations), it allows the classpath scanner to find and pre-process your domain objects to extract the necessary metadata. If you don't use this annotation, your application will take a slight performance hit the first time you store a domain object because the mapping framework needs to build up its internal metadata model so it knows about the properties of your domain object and how to persist them.
=== Example domain object
[source,java]
----
package com.mycompany.domain;
@Document
public class Person {
@Id
private ObjectId id;
@Indexed
private Integer ssn;
private String firstName;
@Indexed
private String lastName;
}
----
The `@Id` annotation tells the mapper which property you want to use for the MongoDB `_id` property and the `@Indexed` annotation tells the mapping framework to call `ensureIndex` on that property of your document, making searches faster.
Automatic index creation is only done for types annotated with `@Document`.
[[mapping-usage-annotations]]
=== Mapping annotation overview
The MappingMongoConverter can use metadata to drive the mapping of objects to documents. An overview of the annotations is provided below
* `@Id `- applied at the field level to mark the field used for identiy purpose.
* `@Document` - applied at the class level to indicate this class is a candidate for mapping to the database. You can specify the name of the collection where the database will be stored.
* `@DBRef` - applied at the field to indicate it is to be stored using a com.mongodb.DBRef.
* `@Indexed` - applied at the field level to describe how to index the field.
* `@CompoundIndex` - applied at the type level to declare Compound Indexes
* `@GeoSpatialIndexed` - applied at the field level to describe how to geoindex the field.
* `@TextIndexed` - applied at the field level to mark the field to be included in the text index.
* `@Language` - applied at the field level to set the language override property for text index.
* `@Transient` - by default all private fields are mapped to the document, this annotation excludes the field where it is applied from being stored in the database
* `@PersistenceConstructor` - marks a given constructor - even a package protected one - to use when instantiating the object from the database. Constructor arguments are mapped by name to the key values in the retrieved DBObject.
* `@Value` - this annotation is part of the Spring Framework . Within the mapping framework it can be applied to constructor arguments. This lets you use a Spring Expression Language statement to transform a key's value retrieved in the database before it is used to construct a domain object. In order to reference a property of a given document one has to use expressions like: `@Value("#root.myProperty")` where `root` refers to the root of the given document.
* `@Field` - applied at the field level and described the name of the field as it will be represented in the MongoDB BSON document thus allowing the name to be different than the fieldname of the class.
The mapping metadata infrastructure is defined in a seperate spring-data-commons project that is technology agnostic. Specific subclasses are using in the MongoDB support to support annotation based metadata. Other strategies are also possible to put in place if there is demand.
Here is an example of a more complex mapping.
[source,java]
----
@Document
@CompoundIndexes({
@CompoundIndex(name = "age_idx", def = "{'lastName': 1, 'age': -1}")
})
public class Person<T extends Address> {
@Id
private String id;
@Indexed(unique = true)
private Integer ssn;
@Field("fName")
private String firstName;
@Indexed
private String lastName;
private Integer age;
@Transient
private Integer accountTotal;
@DBRef
private List<Account> accounts;
private T address;
public Person(Integer ssn) {
this.ssn = ssn;
}
@PersistenceConstructor
public Person(Integer ssn, String firstName, String lastName, Integer age, T address) {
this.ssn = ssn;
this.firstName = firstName;
this.lastName = lastName;
this.age = age;
this.address = address;
}
public String getId() {
return id;
}
// no setter for Id. (getter is only exposed for some unit testing)
public Integer getSsn() {
return ssn;
}
// other getters/setters ommitted
----
[[mapping-custom-object-construction]]
=== Customized Object Construction
The mapping subsystem allows the customization of the object construction by annotating a constructor with the `@PersistenceConstructor` annotation. The values to be used for the constructor parameters are resolved in the following way:
* If a parameter is annotated with the `@Value` annotation, the given expression is evaluated and the result is used as the parameter value.
* If the Java type has a property whose name matches the given field of the input document, then it's property information is used to select the appropriate constructor parameter to pass the input field value to. This works only if the parameter name information is present in the java `.class` files which can be achieved by compiling the source with debug information or using the new `-parameters` command-line switch for javac in Java 8.
* Otherwise an `MappingException` will be thrown indicating that the given constructor parameter could not be bound.

}
DBObject input = new BasicDBObject("id", "4711");
input.put("unitPrice", 2.5);
input.put("qty",5);
OrderItem item = converter.read(OrderItem.class, input);
----
NOTE: The SpEL expression in the `@Value` annotation of the `quantity` parameter falls back to the value `0` if the given property path cannot be resolved.
Additional examples for using the `@PersistenceConstructor` annotation can be found in the https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-data-mongodb/blob/master/spring-data-mongodb/src/test/java/org/springframework/data/mongodb/core/convert/MappingMongoConverterUnitTests.java[MappingMongoConverterUnitTests] test suite.
[[mapping-usage-indexes.compound-index]]
=== Compound Indexes
Compound indexes are also supported. They are defined at the class level, rather than on indidividual properties.
NOTE: Compound indexes are very important to improve the performance of queries that involve criteria on multiple fields
Here's an example that creates a compound index of `lastName` in ascending order and `age` in descending order:
==== Example Compound Index Usage
[source,java]
----
package com.mycompany.domain;
@Document
@CompoundIndexes({
@CompoundIndex(name = "age_idx", def = "{'lastName': 1, 'age': -1}")
})
public class Person {
@Id
private ObjectId id;
private Integer age;
private String firstName;
private String lastName;
}
----
[[mapping-usage-indexes.text-index]]
=== Text Indexes
NOTE: The text index feature is disabled by default for mongodb v.2.4.
Creating a text index allows to accumulate several fields into a searchable full text index. It is only possible to have one text index per collection so all fields marked with `@TextIndexed` are combined into this index. Properties can be weighted to influence document score for ranking results. The default language for the text index is english, to change the default language set `@Document(language="spanish")` to any language you want. Using a property called `language` or `@Language` allows to define a language override on a per document base.
==== Example Text Index Usage
[source,java]
----
@Document(language = "spanish")
class SomeEntity {
@TextIndexed String foo;
@Language String lang;
Nested nested;
}
class Nested {
@TextIndexed(weight=5) String bar;
String roo;
}
----
[[mapping-usage-references]]
=== Using DBRefs
The mapping framework doesn't have to store child objects embedded within the document. You can also store them separately and use a DBRef to refer to that document. When the object is loaded from MongoDB, those references will be eagerly resolved and you will get back a mapped object that looks the same as if it had been stored embedded within your master document.
Here's an example of using a DBRef to refer to a specific document that exists independently of the object in which it is referenced (both classes are shown in-line for brevity's sake):
[source,java]
----
@Document
public class Account {
@Id
private ObjectId id;
private Float total;
}
@Document
public class Person {
@Id
private ObjectId id;
@Indexed
private Integer ssn;
@DBRef
private List<Account> accounts;
}
----
There's no need to use something like `@OneToMany` because the mapping framework sees that you're wanting a one-to-many relationship because there is a List of objects. When the object is stored in MongoDB, there will be a list of DBRefs rather than the `Account` objects themselves.
The mapping framework does not handle cascading saves. If you change an `Account` object that is referenced by a `Person` object, you must save the Account object separately. Calling `save` on the `Person` object will not automatically save the `Account` objects in the property `accounts`.
[[mapping-usage-events]]
=== Mapping Framework Events
Events are fired throughout the lifecycle of the mapping process. This is described in the <<mongodb.mapping-usage.events,Lifecycle Events>> section.
Simply declaring these beans in your Spring ApplicationContext will cause them to be invoked whenever the event is dispatched.
[[mapping-explicit-converters]]
=== Overriding Mapping with explicit Converters
When storing and querying your objects it is convenient to have a `MongoConverter` instance handle the mapping of all Java types to DBObjects. However, sometimes you may want the `MongoConverter`'s do most of the work but allow you to selectively handle the conversion for a particular type or to optimize performance.
To selectively handle the conversion yourself, register one or more one or more `org.springframework.core.convert.converter.Converter` instances with the MongoConverter.
NOTE: Spring 3.0 introduced a core.convert package that provides a general type conversion system. This is described in detail in the Spring reference documentation section entitled http://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/3.2.x/spring-framework-reference/html/validation.html#core-convert[Spring 3 Type Conversion].
The method `customConversions` in `AbstractMongoConfiguration` can be used to configure Converters. The examples <<mapping-configuration,here>> at the beginning of this chapter show how to perform the configuration using Java and XML.
Below is an example of a Spring Converter implementation that converts from a DBObject to a Person POJO.
[source,java]
----
@ReadingConverter
public class PersonReadConverter implements Converter<DBObject, Person> {
public Person convert(DBObject source) {
Person p = new Person((ObjectId) source.get("_id"), (String) source.get("name"));
p.setAge((Integer) source.get("age"));
return p;
}
}
----
Here is an example that converts from a Person to a DBObject.
[source,java]
----
@WritingConverter
public class PersonWriteConverter implements Converter<Person, DBObject> {
public DBObject convert(Person source) {
DBObject dbo = new BasicDBObject();
dbo.put("_id", source.getId());
dbo.put("name", source.getFirstName());
dbo.put("age", source.getAge());
return dbo;
}
}

[[mongo.repositories]]
= MongoDB repositories
[[mongo-repo-intro]]
== Introduction
This chapter will point out the specialties for repository support for MongoDB. This builds on the core repository support explained in <<repositories>>. So make sure you've got a sound understanding of the basic concepts explained there.
[[mongo-repo-usage]]
== Usage
To access domain entities stored in a MongoDB you can leverage our sophisticated repository support that eases implementing those quite significantly. To do so, simply create an interface for your repository:
=== Sample Person entity
[source,java]
----
public class Person {
@Id
private String id;
private String firstname;
private String lastname;
private Address address;
// … getters and setters omitted
}
----
We have a quite simple domain object here. Note that it has a property named `id` of type`ObjectId`. The default serialization mechanism used in `MongoTemplate` (which is backing the repository support) regards properties named id as document id. Currently we support`String`, `ObjectId` and `BigInteger` as id-types.
=== Basic repository interface to persist Person entities
[source]
----
public interface PersonRepository extends PagingAndSortingRepository<Person, Long> {
// additional custom finder methods go here
}
----
Right now this interface simply serves typing purposes but we will add additional methods to it later. In your Spring configuration simply add
=== General MongoDB repository Spring configuration
[source,xml]
----
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:mongo="http://www.springframework.org/schema/data/mongo"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/data/mongo
http://www.springframework.org/schema/data/mongo/spring-mongo-1.0.xsd">
<mongo:mongo id="mongo" />
<bean id="mongoTemplate" class="org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.MongoTemplate">
<constructor-arg ref="mongo" />
<constructor-arg value="databaseName" />
</bean>
<mongo:repositories base-package="com.acme.*.repositories" />
</beans>
----
This namespace element will cause the base packages to be scanned for interfaces extending `MongoRepository` and create Spring beans for each of them found. By default the repositories will get a `MongoTemplate` Spring bean wired that is called `mongoTemplate`, so you only need to configure `mongo-template-ref` explicitly if you deviate from this convention.
If you'd rather like to go with JavaConfig use the `@EnableMongoRepositories` annotation. The annotation carries the very same attributes like the namespace element. If no base package is configured the infrastructure will scan the package of the annotated configuration class.
=== JavaConfig for repositories
[source,java]
----
@Configuration
@EnableMongoRepositories
class ApplicationConfig extends AbstractMongoConfiguration {
@Override
protected String getDatabaseName() {
return "e-store";
}
@Override
public Mongo mongo() throws Exception {
return new Mongo();
}
@Override
protected String getMappingBasePackage() {
return "com.oreilly.springdata.mongodb"
}
}
----
As our domain repository extends `PagingAndSortingRepository` it provides you with CRUD operations as well as methods for paginated and sorted access to the entities. Working with the repository instance is just a matter of dependency injecting it into a client. So accessing the second page of `Person`s at a page size of 10 would simply look something like this:
=== Paging access to Person entities
[source,java]
----
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration
public class PersonRepositoryTests {
@Autowired PersonRepository repository;
@Test
public void readsFirstPageCorrectly() {
Page<Person> persons = repository.findAll(new PageRequest(0, 10));
assertThat(persons.isFirstPage(), is(true));
}
}
----
The sample creates an application context with Spring's unit test support which will perform annotation based dependency injection into test cases. Inside the test method we simply use the repository to query the datastore. We hand the repository a `PageRequest` instance that requests the first page of persons at a page size of 10.
[[mongodb.repositories.queries]]
== Query methods
Most of the data access operations you usually trigger on a repository result a query being executed against the MongoDB databases. Defining such a query is just a matter of declaring a method on the repository interface
=== PersonRepository with query methods
[source,java]
----
public interface PersonRepository extends PagingAndSortingRepository<Person, String> {
List<Person> findByLastname(String lastname);
Page<Person> findByFirstname(String firstname, Pageable pageable);
Person findByShippingAddresses(Address address);
}
----
The first method shows a query for all people with the given lastname. The query will be derived parsing the method name for constraints which can be concatenated with `And` and `Or`. Thus the method name will result in a query expression of`{"lastname" : lastname}`. The second example shows how pagination is applied to a query. Just equip your method signature with a `Pageable` parameter and let the method return a `Page` instance and we will automatically page the query accordingly. The third examples shows that you can query based on properties which are not a primitive type.
NOTE: Note that for version 1.0 we currently don't support referring to parameters that are mapped as `DBRef` in the domain class.
[[mongodb.repositories.queries.delete]]
=== Repository delete queries
The above keywords can be used in conjunciton with `delete…By` or `remove…By` to create queries deleting matching documents.
==== `Delete…By` Query
[source,java]
----
public interface PersonRepository extends MongoRepository<Person, String> {
List <Person> deleteByLastname(String lastname);
Long deletePersonByLastname(String lastname);
}
----
Using return type `List` will retrieve and return all matching documents before actually deleting them. A numeric return type directly removes the matching documents returning the total number of documents removed.
[[mongodb.repositories.queries.geo-spatial]]
=== Geo-spatial repository queries
As you've just seen there are a few keywords triggering geo-spatial operations within a MongoDB query. The `Near` keyword allows some further modification. Let's have look at some examples:
==== Advanced `Near` queries
[source,java]
----
public interface PersonRepository extends MongoRepository<Person, String>
// { 'location' : { '$near' : [point.x, point.y], '$maxDistance' : distance}}
List<Person> findByLocationNear(Point location, Distance distance);
}
----
Adding a `Distance` parameter to the query method allows restricting results to those within the given distance. If the `Distance` was set up containing a `Metric` we will transparently use `$nearSphere` instead of $code.
==== Using `Distance` with `Metrics`
[source,java]
----
Point point = new Point(43.7, 48.8);
Distance distance = new Distance(200, Metrics.KILOMETERS);
… = repository.findByLocationNear(point, distance);
// {'location' : {'$nearSphere' : [43.7, 48.8], '$maxDistance' : 0.03135711885774796}}
----
As you can see using a `Distance` equipped with a `Metric` causes `$nearSphere` clause to be added instead of a plain `$near`. Beyond that the actual distance gets calculated according to the `Metrics` used.
==== Geo-near queries
[source,java]
----
public interface PersonRepository extends MongoRepository<Person, String>
// {'geoNear' : 'location', 'near' : [x, y] }
GeoResults<Person> findByLocationNear(Point location);
// No metric: {'geoNear' : 'person', 'near' : [x, y], maxDistance : distance }
// Metric: {'geoNear' : 'person', 'near' : [x, y], 'maxDistance' : distance,
// 'distanceMultiplier' : metric.multiplier, 'spherical' : true }
GeoResults<Person> findByLocationNear(Point location, Distance distance);
// {'geoNear' : 'location', 'near' : [x, y] }
GeoResults<Person> findByLocationNear(Point location);
}
----
[[mongodb.repositories.queries.json-based]]
=== MongoDB JSON based query methods and field restriction
By adding the annotation `org.springframework.data.mongodb.repository.Query` repository finder methods you can specify a MongoDB JSON query string to use instead of having the query derived from the method name. For example
[source,java]
----
public interface PersonRepository extends MongoRepository<Person, String>
@Query("{ 'firstname' : ?0 }")
List<Person> findByThePersonsFirstname(String firstname);
}
----
The placeholder ?0 lets you substitute the value from the method arguments into the JSON query string.
You can also use the filter property to restrict the set of properties that will be mapped into the Java object. For example,
[source,java]
----
public interface PersonRepository extends MongoRepository<Person, String>
@Query(value="{ 'firstname' : ?0 }", fields="{ 'firstname' : 1, 'lastname' : 1}")
List<Person> findByThePersonsFirstname(String firstname);
}
----
This will return only the firstname, lastname and Id properties of the Person objects. The age property, a java.lang.Integer, will not be set and its value will therefore be null.
[[mongodb.repositories.queries.type-safe]]
=== Type-safe Query methods
MongoDB repository support integrates with the http://www.querydsl.com/[QueryDSL] project which provides a means to perform type-safe queries in Java. To quote from the project description, "Instead of writing queries as inline strings or externalizing them into XML files they are constructed via a fluent API." It provides the following features
* Code completion in IDE (all properties, methods and operations can be expanded in your favorite Java IDE)
* Almost no syntactically invalid queries allowed (type-safe on all levels)
* Domain types and properties can be referenced safely (no Strings involved!)
* Adopts better to refactoring changes in domain types
* Incremental query definition is easier
Please refer to the QueryDSL documentation which describes how to bootstrap your environment for APT based code generation http://source.mysema.com/static/querydsl/2.1.2/reference/html/ch02.html#d0e112[using Maven] or http://source.mysema.com/static/querydsl/2.1.2/reference/html/ch02.html#d0e131[using Ant].
Using QueryDSL you will be able to write queries as shown below
[source,java]
----
QPerson person = new QPerson("person");
List<Person> result = repository.findAll(person.address.zipCode.eq("C0123"));
Page<Person> page = repository.findAll(person.lastname.contains("a"),
new PageRequest(0, 2, Direction.ASC, "lastname"));
----
`QPerson` is a class that is generated (via the Java annotation post processing tool) which is a `Predicate` that allows you to write type safe queries. Notice that there are no strings in the query other than the value "C0123".
You can use the generated `Predicate` class via the interface `QueryDslPredicateExecutor` which is shown below
[source,java]
----
public interface QueryDslPredicateExecutor<T> {
T findOne(Predicate predicate);
List<T> findAll(Predicate predicate);
List<T> findAll(Predicate predicate, OrderSpecifier<?>... orders);
Page<T> findAll(Predicate predicate, Pageable pageable);
Long count(Predicate predicate);
}
----
To use this in your repository implementation, simply inherit from it in addition to other repository interfaces. This is shown below
[source,java]
----
public interface PersonRepository extends MongoRepository<Person, String>, QueryDslPredicateExecutor<Person> {
// additional finder methods go here
}
----
We think you will find this an extremely powerful tool for writing MongoDB queries.
[[mongodb.repositories.misc]]
== Miscellaneous
[[mongodb.repositories.misc.cdi-integration]]
=== CDI Integration
Instances of the repository interfaces are usually created by a container, which Spring is the most natural choice when working with Spring Data. As of version 1.3.0 Spring Data MongoDB ships with a custom CDI extension that allows using the repository abstraction in CDI environments. The extension is part of the JAR so all you need to do to activate it is dropping the Spring Data MongoDB JAR into your classpath. You can now set up the infrastructure by implementing a CDI Producer for the `MongoTemplate`:
[source,java]
----
class MongoTemplateProducer {
@Produces
@ApplicationScoped
public MongoOperations createMongoTemplate() throws UnknownHostException, MongoException {
MongoDbFactory factory = new SimpleMongoDbFactory(new Mongo(), "database");
return new MongoTemplate(factory);
}
}
----
The Spring Data MongoDB CDI extension will pick up the `MongoTemplate` available as CDI bean and create a proxy for a Spring Data repository whenever an bean of a repository type is requested by the container. Thus obtaining an instance of a Spring Data repository is a matter of declaring an `@Inject`-ed property:
[source,java]
----
class RepositoryClient {
@Inject
PersonRepository repository;
public void businessMethod() {
List<Person> people = repository.findAll();
}
}
----
