Angular Datatables with different wrappers in Java Spring, along with the DataTablesInput and DataTablesOutput

For the Angular 5 client-side, check out the below repository:

https://l-lin.github.io/angular-datatables/#/basic/server-side-angular-way

Server-Side Development With Spring

In the Spring controller, write a wrapper called NewWrapper and use NewWrapperService:

@RequestMapping(value = "/get", method = RequestMethod.POST)
  public DataTablesOutput<NewWrapper> listPOST(@Valid @RequestBody DataTablesInput input) {
  return newWrapperService.findAll(input);
}

In the Spring service, wrap it in the way shown below. Change the DataTablesInput values, giving proper overrides of JSON input data and the DataTablesOutput values, using ModelMapper or your own mapper, finally overriding OldObjectPaginate. Write your own custom query for repository currentRepo.findAll.

@Transactional
public DataTablesOutput<NewWrapper> findAll(DataTablesInput input) {
  DataTablesInput input1 = new DataTablesInput();
  input1.setDraw(input.getDraw());
  input1.setOrder(input.getOrder());
  input1.setStart(input.getStart());
  input1.setLength(input.getLength());
  input1.setSearch(input.getSearch());
  List<Column> columns = input.getColumns();
  for(Column column:columns) {
    if (column.getData().equals("levelType")) {
    column.setData("id.levelType");
    }
    else if (column.getData().equals("levelCode")) {
    column.setData("id.levelCode");
    }
  }
  input1.setColumns(columns);
  DataTablesOutput<OldObjectPaginate> dataTableOutput = currentRepo.findAll(input1);
  DataTablesOutput<NewWrapper> dataTableResult = new DataTablesOutput<NewWrapper>();
  dataTableResult.setDraw(dataTableOutput.getDraw());
  dataTableResult.setRecordsFiltered(dataTableOutput.getRecordsFiltered());
  dataTableResult.setRecordsTotal(dataTableOutput.getRecordsTotal());
  /*TypeMap<OldObjectPaginate, NewWrapper> typeMap = modelMapper.getTypeMap(OldObjectPaginate.class, NewWrapper.class);
  if(typeMap==null) {
  modelMapper.addMappings(new PropertyMap<OldObjectPaginate, NewWrapper>() {
    @Override
    protected void configure() {
    map().setLevelCode(source.getId().getLevelCode());
    map().setLevelType(source.getId().getLevelType());
    }
  });
  }*/
  List<NewWrapper> newWrapperList = new ArrayList<>();
  for(OldObjectPaginate data: dataTableOutput.getData()) {
    NewWrapper newWrapper = new NewWrapper();
    newWrapper.setLevelCode(data.getId().getLevelCode());
    newWrapper.setLevelType(data.getId().getLevelType());
    newWrapperList.add(newWrapper);
  }
  //dataTableResult.setData(modelMapper.map(dataTableOutput.getData(), new TypeToken<List<NewWrapper>>() {}.getType()));
  dataTableResult.setData(newWrapperList);
  return dataTableResult;
}
