Spring Boot and Spring Data JPA Integration
This tutorial steps you through the process of creating a Spring Boot application connected to a PostgreSQL server

I am going setup a postgresql server:
docker pull postgres
#run the container
docker run --name postgreslocal -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgres -d postgres
#get the ip
docker inspect --format '{{ .NetworkSettings.IPAddress }}' postgreslocal
#get the port
docker inspect --format '{{ .NetworkSettings.Ports }}' postgreslocal
Create the employees Table:
create schema spring_data_jpa_example;
create table spring_data_jpa_example.employee(
id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
firstnameTEXTNOT NULL,
lastnameTEXTNOT NULL,
emailTEXT not null,
age INT NOT NULL,
salary real,
unique(email)
);
insert into spring_data_jpa_example.employee (firstname,lastname,email,age,salary)
values ('Emmanouil','Gkatziouras','gkatzioura@gmail.com',18,3000.23);
Let’s begin with our gradle file:
group 'com.gkatzioura'
version '1.0-SNAPSHOT'
apply plugin: 'java'
sourceCompatibility = 1.8
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-gradle-plugin:1.3.3.RELEASE")
}
}
apply plugin: 'idea'
apply plugin: 'spring-boot'
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web") {
exclude module: "spring-boot-starter-tomcat"
}
compile("org.postgresql:postgresql:9.4-1206-jdbc42")
compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-jetty")
compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-jpa:1.3.3.RELEASE")
compile("com.mchange:c3p0:0.9.5.2")
testCompile("junit:junit:4.11");
}
As you see, we added the c3p0 connection pool, the spring-boot-starter-data-jpa for hibernate and the postgres driver. That’s all we need.
The Application Class
package com.gkatzioura.springdata.jpa;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext;
/**
* Created by gkatzioura on 6/2/16.
*/
@SpringBootApplication
public class Application {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication springApplication = new SpringApplication();
ApplicationContext ctx = springApplication.run(Application.class, args);
}
}
The DataSource Configuration
package com.gkatzioura.springdata.jpa.config;
import com.mchange.v2.c3p0.ComboPooledDataSource;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import javax.sql.DataSource;
/**
* Created by gkatzioura on 6/2/16.
*/
@Configuration
public class DataSourceConfig {
@Bean
public DataSource createDataSource() throws Exception {
ComboPooledDataSource ds = new ComboPooledDataSource();
ds.setJdbcUrl("jdbc:postgresql://172.17.0.3:5432/postgres?user=postgres&password=postgres");
ds.setDriverClass("org.postgresql.Driver");
return ds;
}
}
The Employee entity
package com.gkatzioura.springdata.jpa.persistence.entity;
import javax.persistence.*;
/**
* Created by gkatzioura on 6/2/16.
*/
@Entity
@Table(name = "employee", schema="spring_data_jpa_example")
public class Employee {
@Id
@Column(name = "id")
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.SEQUENCE)
private Long id;
@Column(name = "firstname")
private String firstName;
@Column(name = "lastname")
private String lastname;
@Column(name = "email")
private String email;
@Column(name = "age")
private Integer age;
@Column(name = "salary")
private Integer salary;
public Long getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(Long 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 String getEmail() {
return email;
}
public void setEmail(String email) {
this.email = email;
}
public Integer getAge() {
return age;
}
public void setAge(Integer age) {
this.age = age;
}
public Integer getSalary() {
return salary;
}
public void setSalary(Integer salary) {
this.salary = salary;
}
}
The employee repository
package com.gkatzioura.springdata.jpa.persistence.repository;
import com.gkatzioura.springdata.jpa.persistence.entity.Employee;
import org.springframework.data.jpa.repository.JpaRepository;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Repository;
/**
* Created by gkatzioura on 6/2/16.
*/
@Repository
public interface EmployeeRepository extends JpaRepository<Employee,Long>{
}
And a controller that will fetch all the data
package com.gkatzioura.springdata.jpa.controller;
import com.gkatzioura.springdata.jpa.persistence.entity.Employee;
import com.gkatzioura.springdata.jpa.persistence.repository.EmployeeRepository;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController;
import java.util.List;
/**
* Created by gkatzioura on 6/2/16.
*/
@RestController
public class TestController {
@Autowired
private EmployeeRepository employeeRepository;
@RequestMapping("/employee")
public List<Employee> getTest() {
return employeeRepository.findAll();
}
}
Pretty convenient considering the dependencies and the XML configuration overhead of the past.
