How to retrieve a Users from a database using a variable other than User Id

Time:02-03

I have a Spring Boot application where I have a model user and I am trying to retrieve Users that have the same username when I hit the submit button on my front-end react application. It is saying that it cannot retrieve and I don't know what exactly is wrong. I am getting this error.

xhr.js:247 GET http://localhost:8080/calorie_counter/user/${email} net::ERR_FAILED 500

I am not having trouble posting things into the database using my front-end application. And I can retrieve Users using Postman with the Id. But When I try to use Email it just doesn't work.

Backend

UserModel

this is where the user is created and what the table in the database Is based on

I want to be able to type in an email, click the submit button and retrieve a User(Multiple Users later on) information from the database. I messed around with some things but I cannot figure out what is wrong with the code. I think it maybe something wrong with the code in UserRepository, or the submit button in ViewUser.

You can see all the code on my repository

CodePudding user response:

Try this one.
Seems to be working for me...

UserModel

It's fine, how ever best practice would be using @Data from Lombok for getters and setters ( This class level annotation will generate getters and setters automatically for you ).
Again, it's just a suggestion :)

UserRepository

@Repository
public interface UserRepository extends JpaRepository<User, Long> {

    Optional<User> findUserByEmail(String email);

}

Inline queries are vulnerable to SQL_Injection attacks and there for is not suggested!
while Jpa and Hibernate are no exception for a talented attacker, it is still better to use them as they provide a good layer of security by the use of regular expressions and etc.

UserService

...


@Override
public User getUserByEmail(String email) {

    if(email == null || email.length() == 0) return null;

    Optional<User> dbUser = this.userRepository.findUserByEmail(email);
    if (!dbUser.isPresent()) throw new IllegalStateException("email does not exist");
    return dbUser.get();
}


...

Actually UserController is fine, don't change it and it must work just fine!
