Spring data jpa: deleteAll: Delete all entities

CrudRepository provides ‘deleteAll’ method, it is used to delete all the entities.

void deleteAll()

Deletes all entities managed by the repository.

Example

Employee emp1 = Employee.builder().firstName("Ram").lastName("Gurram").build();
Employee emp2 = Employee.builder().firstName("Joel").lastName("Chelli").build();
Employee emp3 = Employee.builder().firstName("Gopi").lastName("Battu").build();

employeeRepository.save(emp1);
employeeRepository.save(emp2);
employeeRepository.save(emp3);

long totalEmployees = employeeRepository.count();

System.out.println("Total Employees : " + totalEmployees);
System.out.println("Deleting all the entities");

employeeRepository.deleteAll();
totalEmployees = employeeRepository.count();

System.out.println("Total Employees : " + totalEmployees);

Find the below working application.

Step 1: Create model class Employee.

Employee.java    

package com.sample.app.model;

import javax.persistence.Column;
import javax.persistence.Entity;
import javax.persistence.GeneratedValue;
import javax.persistence.GenerationType;
import javax.persistence.Id;
import javax.persistence.Table;

@Entity
@Table(name = "employee")
public class Employee {
	@Id
	@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
	@Column(name = "employee_id")
	private int id;
	
	@Column(name = "first_name")
	private String firstName;
	
	@Column(name = "last_name")
	private String lastName;

	public int getId() {
		return id;
	}

	public void setId(int id) {
		this.id = id;
	}

	public String getFirstName() {
		return firstName;
	}

	public void setFirstName(String firstName) {
		this.firstName = firstName;
	}

	public String getLastName() {
		return lastName;
	}

	public void setLastName(String lastName) {
		this.lastName = lastName;
	}

	public static EmployeeBuilder builder() {
		return new EmployeeBuilder();
	}

	public static class EmployeeBuilder {
		private Employee emp;

		public EmployeeBuilder() {
			emp = new Employee();
		}

		public EmployeeBuilder firstName(String firstName) {
			emp.setFirstName(firstName);
			return this;
		}

		public EmployeeBuilder lastName(String lastName) {
			emp.setLastName(lastName);
			return this;
		}

		public Employee build() {
			return emp;
		}
	}

	@Override
	public String toString() {
		return "Employee [id=" + id + ", firstName=" + firstName + ", lastName=" + lastName + "]";
	}

}

Step 2: Create EmployeeRepository interface like below.

EmployeeRepository.java

package com.sample.app.repository;

import org.springframework.data.repository.CrudRepository;

import com.sample.app.model.Employee;  

public interface EmployeeRepository extends CrudRepository<Employee, Integer> {

	
}

Step 3: Create ‘application.properties’ file under src/main/resources.

application.properties

logging.level.root=WARN
logging.level.org.hibernate=ERROR

## H2 specific properties
spring.h2.console.enabled=true
spring.h2.console.path=/h2

spring.datasource.url=jdbc:h2:file:~/db/myOrg.db;DB_CLOSE_ON_EXIT=FALSE;DB_CLOSE_DELAY=-1;

spring.datasource.username=krishna
spring.datasource.password=password123

spring.datasource.driverClassName=org.h2.Driver

## JPA specific properties
# Creates the schema, destroying previous data.
spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=create

spring.jpa.database-platform=org.hibernate.dialect.H2Dialect

spring.jpa.show-sql=true
spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.format_sql=true

## Database connection pooling properties
# Number of ms to wait before throwing an exception if no connection is available.
spring.datasource.max-wait=10000

# Maximum number of active connections that can be allocated from this pool at the same time.
spring.datasource.tomcat.max-active=10
spring.datasource.tomcat.max-idle=5
spring.datasource.tomcat.min-idle=3

Step 4: Define App.java class like below.

App.java    

package com.sample.app;

import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.List;

import org.springframework.boot.CommandLineRunner;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;

import com.sample.app.model.Employee;
import com.sample.app.repository.EmployeeRepository;

@SpringBootApplication
public class App {

    private static void printEmployee(Employee emp) {
        System.out.println("------------------------------");
        System.out.println("Id : " + emp.getId());
        System.out.println("firstName : " + emp.getFirstName());
        System.out.println("lastName : " + emp.getLastName());
        System.out.println("------------------------------");
    }

    public static void main(String args[]) {
        SpringApplication.run(App.class, args);
    }

    @Bean
    public CommandLineRunner demo(EmployeeRepository employeeRepository) {
        return (args) -> {
            Employee emp1 = Employee.builder().firstName("Ram").lastName("Gurram").build();
            Employee emp2 = Employee.builder().firstName("Joel").lastName("Chelli").build();
            Employee emp3 = Employee.builder().firstName("Gopi").lastName("Battu").build();

            employeeRepository.save(emp1);
            employeeRepository.save(emp2);
            employeeRepository.save(emp3);

            long totalEmployees = employeeRepository.count();

            System.out.println("Total Employees : " + totalEmployees);
            System.out.println("Deleting all the entities");

            employeeRepository.deleteAll();
            totalEmployees = employeeRepository.count();

            System.out.println("Total Employees : " + totalEmployees);
        };
    }

}

Total project structure looks like below.

Run App.java, you can see below messages in console.
