I am working on a Spring Boot application using Spring Data JPA and I am finding the following problem implementing Hibernate mapping.
Basically I first created tables on my database and then I created the entity classes mapping these table (in my project the DB tables are not auto generated from the entity classes).
I have these two DB tables:
portal_user: this is the main table containing records representing the user of a portal.
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS public.portal_user
(
id bigint NOT NULL GENERATED ALWAYS AS IDENTITY ( INCREMENT 1 START 1 MINVALUE 1 MAXVALUE 9223372036854775807 CACHE 1 ),
first_name character varying(50) COLLATE pg_catalog."default" NOT NULL,
middle_name character varying(50) COLLATE pg_catalog."default",
surname character varying(50) COLLATE pg_catalog."default" NOT NULL,
sex "char" NOT NULL,
birthdate date NOT NULL,
tex_code character varying(50) COLLATE pg_catalog."default" NOT NULL,
e_mail character varying(50) COLLATE pg_catalog."default" NOT NULL,
contact_number character varying(50) COLLATE pg_catalog."default" NOT NULL,
created_at date NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT user_pkey PRIMARY KEY (id)
)
address: it contais records representing the addresses of the previous users. Each user can have one or multiple adresses.
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS public.address
(
id bigint NOT NULL GENERATED ALWAYS AS IDENTITY ( INCREMENT 1 START 1 MINVALUE 1 MAXVALUE 9223372036854775807 CACHE 1 ),
country character varying(50) COLLATE pg_catalog."default" NOT NULL,
province character varying(50) COLLATE pg_catalog."default" NOT NULL,
zip_code character varying(5) COLLATE pg_catalog."default" NOT NULL,
street character varying(250) COLLATE pg_catalog."default" NOT NULL,
notes character varying(250) COLLATE pg_catalog."default",
fk_user_id bigint NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT address_pkey PRIMARY KEY (id),
CONSTRAINT fk_user_id FOREIGN KEY (fk_user_id)
REFERENCES public.portal_user (id) MATCH SIMPLE
ON UPDATE NO ACTION
ON DELETE NO ACTION
NOT VALID
)
As you can see each user can have one or multiple adresses so the relation between portal_user and address is ONE TO MANY (because one user can have multiple adresses). To implement this behavior the address contains the fk_user_id field representing the ID of a specific portal_user record.
Ok, then I am trying to map these two tables and their relationship using Hibernate.
First I created the User entity class:
@Entity
@Table(name = "portal_user")
@Data
public class User implements Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 5062673109048808267L;
@Id
@Column(name = "id")
@GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.IDENTITY)
private int id;
@Column(name = "first_name")
private String firstName;
@Column(name = "middle_name")
private String middleName;
@Column(name = "surname")
private String surname;
@Column(name = "sex")
private char sex;
@Column(name = "birthdate")
private Date birthdate;
@Column(name = "tex_code")
private String taxCode;
@Column(name = "e_mail")
private String eMail;
@Column(name = "contact_number")
private String contactNumber;
@Temporal(TemporalType.DATE)
@Column(name = "created_at")
private Date createdAt;
@OneToMany(fetch = FetchType.LAZY, cascade = CascadeType.ALL, mappedBy = "user", orphanRemoval = true)
@JsonManagedReference
private Set<Address> addressesList = new HashSet<>();
public User(String firstName, String middleName, String surname, char sex, Date birthdate, String taxCode,
String eMail, String contactNumber, Date createdAt) {
super();
this.firstName = firstName;
this.middleName = middleName;
this.surname = surname;
this.sex = sex;
this.birthdate = birthdate;
this.taxCode = taxCode;
this.eMail = eMail;
this.contactNumber = contactNumber;
this.createdAt = createdAt;
}
}
As you can see this class contains all the fields defined into the portal_user database table and this OneToMany relation. Basically it says that an user is related to multiples adresses:
@OneToMany(fetch = FetchType.LAZY, cascade = CascadeType.ALL, mappedBy = "user", orphanRemoval = true)
@JsonManagedReference
private Set<Address> addressesList = new HashSet<>();
Then I created the Address entity class mapping my DB address table, this one:
@Entity
@Table(name = "address")
@Data
@NoArgsConstructor
@AllArgsConstructor
public class Address implements Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 6956974379644960088L;
@Id
@Column(name = "id")
@GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.IDENTITY)
private int id;
@Column(name = "country")
private String country;
@Column(name = "province")
private String province;
@Column(name = "zip_code")
private String zipCode;
@Column(name = "street")
private String street;
@Column(name = "notes")
private String notes;
//@Column(name = "fk_user_id")
//private int fkUserId;
@ManyToOne
@EqualsAndHashCode.Exclude // Needed by Lombock in "Many To One" relathionship to avoid error
@JoinColumn(name = "id", referencedColumnName = "id")
@JsonBackReference
private User user;
public Address(String country, String province, String zipCode, String street, String notes, User user) {
super();
this.country = country;
this.province = province;
this.zipCode = zipCode;
this.street = street;
this.notes = notes;
this.user = user;
}
}
As usual it contains the mapping for the address database table and also contains the ManyToOne relationship linking this class to the previous User class:
@ManyToOne
@EqualsAndHashCode.Exclude // Needed by Lombock in "Many To One" relathionship to avoid error
@JoinColumn(name = "id", referencedColumnName = "id")
@JsonBackReference
private User user;
Basically it says that multiple instance of Address are linked to a single specific instance of User.
For the sake of completeness only this is my repository interface (at the moment it is empty because I am only testing the save() method provided by JpaRepository):
public interface UsersRepository extends JpaRepository<User, Integer> {
}
Finnally I created this unit test class in order to test the insertion of a new user with the related addresses:
@SpringBootTest()
@ContextConfiguration(classes = GetUserWsApplication.class)
@TestMethodOrder(OrderAnnotation.class)
public class UserRepositoryTest {
@Autowired
private UsersRepository userRepository;
@Test
@Order(1)
public void testInsertUser() {
User user = new User("Mario", null, "Rossi", 'M', new Date(), "XXX", "xxx@gmail.com", "329123456", new Date());
userRepository.save(user);
Set<Address> addressesList = new HashSet<>();
addressesList.add(new Address("Italy", "RM", "00100", "Via XXX 123", "near YYY", user));
assertTrue(true);
}
}
The problem is that running this test method I obtain the following error message in my stacktrace:

Why this error? What am I missing? How can I try to solve this error?
Here's your double mapping
@ManyToOne
@EqualsAndHashCode.Exclude // Needed by Lombock in "Many To One" relathionship to avoid error
@JoinColumn(name = "id", referencedColumnName = "id")
private User user;
Should be:
@ManyToOne
@EqualsAndHashCode.Exclude // Needed by Lombock in "Many To One" relathionship to avoid error
@JoinColumn(name = "fk_user_id", referencedColumnName = "id")
private User user;
You are mapping the id
twice (first appearance is the @Id
column name), the foreign key column should be fk_user_id
according to your DDL.
