Spring JPA failing to find repository

Spring JPA application is failing to find the repository. I have tried annotating it with @repository, putting the controller, service and repository in component scan etc but I'm not having any luck. Anybody spot the line I'm missing? I've added a picture to show the layout of the packages.

The message been provided when compiling:

***************************
APPLICATION FAILED TO START
***************************

Description:

Parameter 0 of constructor in member.services.MemberServiceImpl required a bean of type 'member.repositories.MemberRepository' that could not be found.


Action:

Consider defining a bean of type 'member.repositories.MemberRepository' in your configuration.

Classes:

@SpringBootApplication
public class MemberApplication {

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

@RestController
@Slf4j
public class MemberController {
    private MemberService memberService;

    @Autowired
    public MemberController(MemberService memberService) {
        this.memberService = memberService;
    }
    
    @GetMapping("/retrieve")
    public String retrieveAllMembers() {
        memberService.retrieveAllMembers();

        return "Success";
    }
}

@Slf4j
@Service
public class MemberServiceImpl implements MemberService {
    MemberRepository memberRepository;

    @Autowired
    public MemberServiceImpl(MemberRepository memberRepository) {
        this.memberRepository = memberRepository;
    }

    public void addMemberToDatabase(Member member) {
        memberRepository.save(member);
    }

    public void retrieveAllMembers() {
        memberRepository.findAll();
    }
}

public interface MemberService {
    void retrieveAllMembers();
    void addMemberToDatabase(Member member);
}


/**
 * MemberRepository.
 */
public interface MemberRepository extends JpaRepository<Member, Long> {
}

@Entity
public class Member {
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue (strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
    private Long id;
    private String firstName;
    private String LastName;

    public Member() {
    }

    public String getFirstName() {
        return firstName;
    }

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

    public String getLastName() {
        return LastName;
    }

    public void setLastName(String lastName) {
        LastName = lastName;
    }

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

    public Long getId() {
        return id;
    }
}

Solution

  • In the end I used @EnableJpaRepositories but made it cover all the repository package rather than that of jpa:

    @EnableJpaRepositories (basePackages = "member.repositories")

    I took @repository out of the repository as this was no longer required. Entity was changed to:

    @Data
@Entity
@Table (name="member")
public class Member {

@Id
@GeneratedValue (strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
@Column (name="person_id")
private Long personId;
@Column(name="first_name")
private String firstName;
@Column(name="last_name")
private String LastName;

    <parent>
    <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
    <version>3.0.0</version>
    <relativePath/> <!-- lookup parent from repository -->
</parent>

        <id>spring-data-next</id>
        <properties>
            <spring-data-bom.version>2023.1.2-SNAPSHOT</spring-data-bom.version>
        </properties>

    I'm reckoning the versions could probably be tidied up and better ones put in but for the moment this all seems to be working!

    Thanks @M. Deinum and @octo-carrot - putting it all together seemed to work! Couldn't pick answers as they are comments sorry!
