PostgreSQL’s JSONB data type with Hibernate: Error creating bean with name 'entityManagerFactor

Time:08-18

Now I learn about nested jsons and geojson and how to save them in PostgreSQL as JsonB directly in database and before starting.

Inspiration source: https://thorben-janssen.com/persist-postgresqls-jsonb-data-type-hibernate/

Error I get when running the app:

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'entityManagerFactory' defined in class path resource [org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/orm/jpa/HibernateJpaConfiguration.class]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is org.hibernate.boot.registry.classloading.spi.ClassLoadingException: Unable to load class [FeatureType]

Here is the Main Entity:

@Getter
@Setter
@ToString
@RequiredArgsConstructor
@Entity
public class Geojson {

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
    @Column(name = "id")
    private int id;

    @Column(name = "type")
    private String type;

    @Column(name = "feature")
    @Type(type = "FeatureType")
    private Feature features;

Here is the geojson(nested json) I want to save as Jsonb in a column in database:

@Getter
@Setter
@ToString
@RequiredArgsConstructor
public class Feature implements Serializable {

    private String type;

    private Properties properties;

    private Geometry geometry;

}

Here is the implementation of Usertype for my json:

        }
    }


    @Override

            // use serialization to create a deep copy

            ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(bos);
            oos.writeObject(value);
            oos.flush();

            bos.close();

            ByteArrayInputStream bais = new ByteArrayInputStream(bos.toByteArray());
            return new ObjectInputStream(bais).readObject();

            throw new HibernateException(ex);
        }
    }

    @Override

        return true;
    }

    @Override
    public Serializable disassemble(final Object value) throws HibernateException {

    }

    @Override

    }

    @Override
    public int hashCode(final Object obj) throws HibernateException {
        return obj.hashCode();
    }
}

here is the registration of hibernate dialect:

public class MyPostgreSQL94Dialect extends PostgreSQL94Dialect {

    public MyPostgreSQL94Dialect() {
        this.registerColumnType(Types.JAVA_OBJECT, "jsonb");
    }

}

App.properties:

#postgres database config

#spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.dialect = org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQLDialect
#spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=create
spring.jpa.generate-ddl=true
spring.jpa.hibernate.show-sql=true
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/geojson_copy

spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=update
spring.jpa.show-sql=true
spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.format_sql=true
spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQL81Dialect

I don't understand why i get the error about the FeatureType, if anyone can help me. Thank you!

CodePudding user response:

You need to have @NoArgsConstructor also in your beans. This is required for jackson.

CodePudding user response:

I found an way easier solution working for hibernate 5 or higher:

Found a different approach that worked as expected:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.vladmihalcea</groupId>
    <artifactId>hibernate-types-55</artifactId>
    <version>2.18.0</version>
</dependency>

Base Entity:

@TypeDefs({
        @TypeDef(name = "json", typeClass = JsonStringType.class),
        @TypeDef(name = "jsonb", typeClass = JsonBinaryType.class)
})
public class BaseEntity {
    //class members
}

Main entity:

@Getter
@Setter
@ToString
@RequiredArgsConstructor
@Entity
public class Geojson extends BaseEntity{

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
    @Column(name = "id")
    private int id;

    @Column(name = "type")
    private String type;

    @Type(type = "json")
    @Column(name = "feature", columnDefinition = "jsonb")
    private List<Feature> features;

Geojson(nested json) I want to save as Jsonb in a column in database:

@Getter
@Setter
@ToString
@RequiredArgsConstructor
public class Feature implements Serializable {

    private String type;

    private Properties properties;

    private Geometry geometry;

}

I'm not sure yet why I was not able to use @TypeDefs directly on "Geojson" class, and i needed to create a BaseEntity, but it works.

PS: If you tried storing some other type of data before, please make sure that you drop the table and create a new one before running the app, since the table was created with a different variable type for that column.

CodePudding user response:

You have to put the @TypeDef(name = "FeatureType", typeClass = FeatureType.class) part on a class that is scanned by Hibernate i.e. an entity class.
