Hibernate 6: Customize list index start position while mapping lists

This is continuation to my previous post. I would recommend you to read my previous post before going through this.

 

While mapping lists using @ElementCollection, @OrderColumn annotations, Hibernate stores the order value of elements based on the position of element in the list. The elements at 0th index in the list is stored with order value 0 etc.,

 

Sometimes, you may want to start the order position from 1 to support legacy systems or from some specific value like 12, 34 etc., You can achieve that using @ListIndexBase annotation.

 

Example

@ElementCollection
@OrderColumn(name = "nick_names_sequence")
@ListIndexBase(13)
private List<NickName> nickNames;

 

@ListIndexBase annotation defines the start index value for a list index as stored on the database. In this example, start index is set to 13.

 

Find the below working application.

 

Step 1: Create new maven project ‘hibernate-map-lists-customize-index-position’.

 

Step 2: Update pom.xml with maven dependencies.

 

pom.xml

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 https://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
    <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
    <groupId>com.sample.app</groupId>
    <artifactId>hibernate-map-lists-customize-index-position</artifactId>
    <version>1</version>

    <properties>
        <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>

        <java.version>15</java.version>
        <maven.compiler.source>${java.version}</maven.compiler.source>
        <maven.compiler.target>${java.version}</maven.compiler.target>

    </properties>

    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.postgresql</groupId>
            <artifactId>postgresql</artifactId>
            <version>42.4.1</version>
        </dependency>

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
            <artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId>
            <version>6.1.2.Final</version>
        </dependency>


    </dependencies>
</project>

 

Step 3: Define NickName class.

 

NickName.java

 

package com.sample.app.dto;

import jakarta.persistence.Embeddable;

@Embeddable
public class NickName {

    private String name;
    
    public NickName() {}

    public NickName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return "NickName [name=" + name + "]";
    }

}

 

Step 4: Define Employee entity class.

 

Employee.java

package com.sample.app.entity;

import java.util.List;

import org.hibernate.annotations.ListIndexBase;

import com.sample.app.dto.NickName;

import jakarta.persistence.Column;
import jakarta.persistence.ElementCollection;
import jakarta.persistence.Entity;
import jakarta.persistence.Id;
import jakarta.persistence.OrderColumn;
import jakarta.persistence.Table;

@Entity
@Table(name = "employee")
public class Employee {
    @Id
    @Column(name = "employee_id")
    private int id;

    private String name;

    @ElementCollection
    @OrderColumn(name = "nick_names_sequence")
    @ListIndexBase(13)
    private List<NickName> nickNames;

    public Employee() {
    }

    public Employee(int id, String name, List<NickName> nickNames) {
        this.id = id;
        this.name = name;
        this.nickNames = nickNames;
    }

    public int getId() {
        return id;
    }

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

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    public List<NickName> getNickNames() {
        return nickNames;
    }

    public void setNickNames(List<NickName> nickNames) {
        this.nickNames = nickNames;
    }

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

}

 

Step 5: Create hibernate.cfg.xml file under src/main/resources folder.

 

hibernate.cfg.xml

 

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC
        "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD 3.0//EN"
        "http://www.hibernate.org/dtd/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">
<hibernate-configuration>

    <session-factory>

        <!-- Database Connection settings -->
        <property name="connection.driver_class">org.postgresql.Driver</property>
        <property name="connection.url">jdbc:postgresql://127.0.0.1:5432/test</property>
        <property name="connection.username">postgres</property>
        <property name="connection.password">postgres</property>

        <!-- Enable the logging of all the generated SQL statements to the console -->
        <property name="show_sql">true</property>

        <!-- Format the generated SQL statement to make it more readable, -->
        <property name="format_sql">true</property>

        <!-- Hibernate will put comments inside all generated SQL statements to 
            hint what’s the generated SQL trying to do -->
        <property name="use_sql_comments">false</property>

        <!-- This property makes Hibernate generate the appropriate SQL for the 
            chosen database. -->
        <property name="dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQLDialect</property>

        <!-- Drop and re-create the database schema on startup -->
        <property name="hbm2ddl.auto">create</property>

        <!-- mappings for annotated classes -->
        <mapping class="com.sample.app.entity.Employee" />

    </session-factory>

</hibernate-configuration>

 

Step 6: Define main application class.

 

App.java

 

package com.sample.app;

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

import org.hibernate.Session;
import org.hibernate.SessionFactory;
import org.hibernate.boot.Metadata;
import org.hibernate.boot.MetadataSources;
import org.hibernate.boot.registry.StandardServiceRegistry;
import org.hibernate.boot.registry.StandardServiceRegistryBuilder;

import com.sample.app.dto.NickName;
import com.sample.app.entity.Employee;

import jakarta.persistence.criteria.CriteriaBuilder;
import jakarta.persistence.criteria.CriteriaQuery;

public class App {
    private static SessionFactory sessionFactory = buildSessionFactory();

    private static <T> List<T> loadAllData(Class<T> clazz, Session session) {
        final CriteriaBuilder builder = session.getCriteriaBuilder();
        final CriteriaQuery<T> criteria = builder.createQuery(clazz);
        criteria.from(clazz);
        return session.createQuery(criteria).getResultList();
    }

    private static SessionFactory buildSessionFactory() {
        try {
            if (sessionFactory == null) {
                StandardServiceRegistry standardRegistry = new StandardServiceRegistryBuilder()
                        .configure("hibernate.cfg.xml").build();

                Metadata metaData = new MetadataSources(standardRegistry).getMetadataBuilder().build();

                sessionFactory = metaData.getSessionFactoryBuilder().build();
            }
            return sessionFactory;
        } catch (Throwable ex) {
            throw new ExceptionInInitializerError(ex);
        }
    }

    public static void main(String args[]) {

        try (Session session = sessionFactory.openSession()) {

            session.beginTransaction();
            Employee emp = new Employee(1, "Krishna",
                    Arrays.asList(new NickName("Vasu dev"), new NickName("Rishikesha"), new NickName("Keshava"),
                            new NickName("Gopala"), new NickName("Nandakumara")));
            session.persist(emp);
            session.flush();
            session.getTransaction().commit();

            List<Employee> employees = loadAllData(Employee.class, session);
            for (Employee emp1 : employees) {
                System.out.println(emp1);
            }

        }

    }
}

 

Total project structure looks like below.

 

 


Run App.java, you will see below messages in the console.
