#Id
#GeneratedValue
private int uid;
#Column(name = "name")

Answer 1

Create a repository class and call it for example UserEntityRepository like this:
public interface UserEntityRepository extends JpaRepository<UserEntity, Integer> {
}
Now create a service class and call it UserEntityService like this:
public interface PlayerService {
List<UserEntity> findAll();
Player findById(int theId);
void save(UserEntity theUserEntity);
void deleteById(int theId);
}
You don't necessarily need all these methods but these are common used crud methods.
Then you need to create a class that implements your service class for example:
#Service
public class UserEntityServiceImpl implements UserEntityService {
private UserEntityRepository userEntityRepository;
#Autowired
public CompanyBlueprintServiceImpl(UserEntityRepository theUserEntityRepository ) {
userEntityRepository= theUserEntityRepository ;
}
...
#Override
public void save(UserEntity theUserEntity) {
userEntityRepository.save(theUserEntity);
}
}
After doing all this you have to use your UserEntityService in your controller class. So you can call the save() method from your service to save your entity in your db.
#RestController
#RequestMapping("/api")
public class Ucontroller {
private UserEntityService userEntityService;
public Ucontroller(UserEntityService theUserEntityService) {
userEntityService = theUserEntityService;
}
#RequestMapping("/showall")
public UserEntity showall()
{
return new UserEntity("abc",29);
}
#PostMapping("/users")
public UserEntity addUser(#RequestBody UserEntity theUserEntity) {
// just in case an id in JSON was pass ... set id to 0
// this is to force a save of new item ... instead of update
theUserEntity.setUid(0);
userEntityService.save(theUserEntity);
return theCompany;
}
}
What you did is just creating a UserEntity object and returning it in your controller method showAll().
After saving the userEntity you should see the row in your db.

I am sorry to bother but I did a great mistake, the project package wasn't named correctlyenter image description here
you see the default generated package is com.usere.demo, earlier I named the other packages as com.usere.controller/entity which was wrong and we shouldn't do that, I thought it might not be important to post the package name, that said the correct name should be com.usere.demo.[anything you desire], thank you Constantin Beer and BaDr Amer for helping instantly and telling the right convention and workflow but it was a very stupid mistake that I made.
