I am using Ignite v2.1 and dbeaver to query caches. Is it possible to query collections within a objects in the cache, or complex object within object in the cache? And if so, what it the syntax?
For example, if I have a cache such as IgniteCache and Person looked like the following, what would the syntax be to 1) select the address and 2) select the siblings names & addresses?
class Person {
String name;
Addresss address;
Collection<Person> siblings;
}
It is not possible to do SQL over nested collections in Ignite: SQL standard does not support such things. SQL tables are flat.
Think regular SQL databases: you need to introduce Person.id and Person.parentId (for one-to-many), or a separate mapping table (for many-to-many), then use SQL JOIN to query siblings.
You will have to declare QueryEntity for this cache, with list of fields and indexes on this cache, then you can use its fields in SQL queries. Annotations driven setup is explained in the same doc, pick one which suits you better.
Then the 1) will probably be something like SELECT ADDRESS FROM PERSONCACHE.PERSON WHERE NAME = ?.
Foreign keys are not supported, however, and I'm don't think that siblings setup will work. It doesn't work like that for relational databases unless you add join tables. Ignite is not a graph database.

Hi I was building an app and was wondering on how I can convert this query into a derived query method without using the annotation #Query:
SELECT address, COUNT(*) address FROM `employee` GROUP BY address ORDER BY address DESC LIMIT 5
I have tried it here is how I did it
List<Employee> countByAddressGroupByAddressByOrderByAddressDescLimit5();
This throws the following error
Invalid derived query! No property groupByAddressBy found for type String! Traversed path: Employee.address.
I was wondering if what am I doing wrong here thank you in advance.
I don't think query derivation supports group by.
You can't.
Derived queries don't support GROUP BY.
Derived queries are intended only for simple queries, where the mapping between a normal method name that you might choose independently from Spring Data and the query needed for implementation is obvious.
For more complex cases like the one you describe other mechanisms are available, like annotated or named queries. Nobody wants to use a method name like countByAddressGroupByAddressByOrderByAddressDescLimit5 anyway.
As others said, derived queries do not support this. There might be other reasons besides simply not being a 'practical' solution.
AFAIK derived query methods are restricted to retrieving instances just for the entity type managed by the repository (you can retrieve MyEntity, Optional<MyEntity>, Collection<MyEntity>, etcetera) or projections that match the fields/columns used for the managed entity.
When you use 'Group By', you break with this resultset structure, you usually have to explicitly indicate which columns you want to retrieve or which operations you want to perform on the grouped columns (which would be impossible using just a method name).
TL;DR
You can't easily indicate the columns you want to include in a 'Grouped By' query result, so no, I don't think there is a way to use this technique with 'Group By'.
After moving the logic from a legacy application (SQL/coldfushion) to Spring Rest with Hibernate, we have experienced a slowness in the application. The main reason is with Hibernate we noticed many queries are generated which we used to do with one single query in the legacy application (two pages long query).
Write now, I'm looking at selecting proper fetch strategies and try to optimize code. Could you please give me any other areas that I need to investigate to optimize the Hibernate layer or any other sujjestions?
Try to use DTO not entities(you can load DTO directly from the database)
Review the loading strategy (Eager or Lazy)
Try to use Native Queries more
Try to use more parameters to restrict the result set
You also can leverage some caching technique (cache all static data)
Try to implement hashCode and equals for each entity
If you use, HQL queries, then add the 'join fetch', It avoids the n+1 query problems. For more information on join fetch
e.g:
select a from Model a
inner join fetch a.b as b
Add 'indexes' for columns which are using in where condition.
e.g: Add index for the column 'name' which is used in where condition.
select a from Model a where a.name ='x'

In a dao class implementation,I want to use different sql query depending upon the underlying database. Since my SQL query is complex which selects from a database view and uses "UNION" key word and uses database specific functions, I can not use JPQL (or HQL). I did some search on Stackoverflow and threads suggest the good way would be to find out the dialect used in the application. Can anyone provide some code example?
EDIT : My apologies, I did not explain my question well enough. In my dao class implementation , I want to determine the database ( say mysql or oracle) on which my application is running and then execute the appropriate query. I need the code like jdbcTemplate.findOutTheDialect().
JPA have the native queries for that.
An example you can find here.
You can use spring JdbcTemplate to connect and query from your database.
For Example..
String query = "SELECT COUNTRY_NAME FROM COUNTRY WHERE MCC_COUNTRY NOT IN ('Reserved') ORDER BY COUNTRY_NAME";
jdbcTemplate.query(query, new ObjectRowMapper());
Where "ObjectRowMapper" will be a class to map return resultset to list of Objects.
In a data model like this (http://alanstorm.com/2009/img/magento-book/eav.png) I want to get the value from an EAV_Attribute using Linq to SQL.
Assuming that an EAV_Attribute only exists in one inherited table (varchar, decimal, int, etc.) how can I get it in a linq query?
I know that I can use the Inheritance for this, but I want to execute it in the SQL Database side...
Is it possible to do a kind of Coalesce in Linq, considering that the elements have different types?
EAV and linq is not a happy marriage. I think your best shot is to create an unmapped property in eav_attribute that resolves the value (as object) from it's typed attribute child. With entity framework, you won't be able to use this property in an expression (i.e. not in a Where or Select), You must convert to IEnumerable first to access it. (Linq-to-sql may allow it because it can switch to linq-to-objects below the hood).
Another option is to create a calculated column of type sql_variant that does the same, but now in t-sql code. But... EF does not suport sql_variant. You've got to use some trickery to read it.
That's the reading part.
For setting/modifying/deleting values I don't see any shortcuts. You just have to handle the objects as any object graph with parents and children. In sql server you can't use cascaded delete because it can only be defined for one foreign key. (This may tackle that, but I never tried).
So, not really good news, I'm afraid. Maybe good to know that in one project I also work with a database that has an inevitable EAV part. We do it with EF too, but it's not without friction.
First of all, I recommend using TPH and not TPT for EAV tables. (One table with multiple nullable value columns (one per type) + discriminator vs. one table per type.)
Either way, if you modelled the value entity as an abstract class (containing the two IDs) with an inheriting entity per value data type that adds the value property, then your LINQ should look like this:
var valueEntity = context.ProductAttributes.Where(pa =>
pa.ProductId == selectedProductId
&& pa.AttributeTypeId == selectedAttributeTypeId)
.SingleOrDefault() as ProductAttributeOfDouble;
if valueEntity != null
return valueEntity.Value;
return null;
Where the entity types are: Product, AttributeType, ProductAttribute, ProductAttributeOfDouble, ... ProductAttributeOfString.
Have been trying out the new Dynamic Data site create tool that shipped with .NET 3.5. The tool uses LINQ Datasources to get the data from the database using a .dmbl context file for a reference. I am interseted in customizing a data grid but I need to show data from more than one table. Does anyone know how to do this using the LINQ Datasource object?
If the tables are connected by a foreign key, you can easily reference both tables as they will be joined by linq automatically (you can see easily if you look in your dbml and there is an arrow connecting the tables) - if not, see if you can add one.
To do that, you can just use something like this:
<%# Bind("unit1.unit_name") %>
Where in the table, 'unit' has a foreign key that references another table and you pull that 'unit's property of 'unit_name'
I hope that makes sense.
(EDIT misunderstood the question, revising my answer to the following)
Your LinqDataSource could point to a view, which allows you to overcome the problem of not being able to express a Join in the actual element. From "How to: Create LINQ to SQL Classes Mapped to Tables and Views (O/R Designer)":
The O/R Designer is a simple object relational mapper because it supports only 1:1 mapping relationships. In other words, an entity class can have only a 1:1 mapping relationship with a database table or view. Complex mapping, such as mapping an entity class to multiple tables, is not supported. However, you can map an entity class to a view that joins multiple related tables.
You cannot put more than one object/datasource on a datagrid. You will have to build a single ConceptObject that combines the exposed properties of the part Entities. Try to use DB -> L2S Entities -> ConceptObject. You must be very contrived if the DB model matches the ConceptObject field-for-field.
You are best using a ObjectDataSource when you wnt to do more complex Linq and bind your Grid to the ObjectDataSource.
You do however need to watch out for Anonymous types that could give you some trouble, but anything is posible...
