Jakarta NoSQL and Data implementations

One Mapping API to Multiples NoSQL Databases

Eclipse JNoSQL provides one API for each NoSQL database type. However, it incorporates the same annotations from the Jakarta Persistence specification and heritage Java Persistence API (JPA) to map Java objects. Therefore, with just these annotations that look like JPA, there is support for more than twenty NoSQL databases.

@Entity
public class Car {

    @Id
    private Long id;
    @Column
    private String name;
    @Column
    private CarType type;
 //...
}

Theses annotations from the Mapping API will look familiar to the Jakarta Persistence/JPA developer:

Annotation	Description
`@jakarta.nosql.Entity`	Specifies that the class is an entity. This annotation is applied to the entity class.
`@jakarta.nosql.Id`	Specifies the primary key of an entity.
`@jakarta.nosql.Column`	Specify the mapped column for a persistent property or field.
`@jakarta.nosql.Embeddable`	Specifies a class whose instances are stored as an intrinsic part of an owning entity and share the entity’s identity.
`@jakarta.nosql.Convert`	Specifies the conversion of a Basic field or property.
`@org.eclipse.jnosql.mapping.MappedSuperclass`	Designates a class whose mapping information is applied to the entities that inherit from it. A mapped superclass has no separate table defined for it.
`@jakarta.nosql.Inheritance`	Specifies the inheritance strategy to be used for an entity class hierarchy.
`@jakarta.nosql.DiscriminatorColumn`	Specifies the discriminator column for the mapping strategy.
`@jakarta.nosql.DiscriminatorValue`	Specifies the value of the discriminator column for entities of the given type.

Important

Although similar to JPA, Jakarta NoSQL defines persistable fields with either the @Id or @Column annotation.

After mapping an entity, you can explore the advantage of using a Template interface, which can increase productivity on NoSQL operations.

@Inject
Template template;
...

Car ferrari = Car.id(1L)
        .name("Ferrari")
        .type(CarType.SPORT);

template.insert(ferrari);
Optional<Car> car = template.find(Car.class, 1L);
template.delete(Car.class, 1L);

List<Car> cars = template.select(Car.class).where("name").eq("Ferrari").result();
template.delete(Car.class).execute();

This template has specialization to take advantage of a particular NoSQL database type.

A Repository interface is also provided for exploring the Domain-Driven Design (DDD) pattern for a higher abstraction.

public interface CarRepository extends PageableRepository<Car, String> {

    Optional<Car> findByName(String name);

}

@Inject
CarRepository repository;
...

Car ferrari = Car.id(1L)
        .name("Ferrari")
        .type(CarType.SPORT);

repository.save(ferrari);
Optional<Car> idResult = repository.findById(1L);
Optional<Car> nameResult = repository.findByName("Ferrari");

Getting Started

Eclipse JNoSQL requires these minimum requirements:

Java 17 (or higher)
Jakarta Contexts & Dependency Injection 3.0 (CDI)
Jakarta JSON Binding 2.0 (JSON-B)
Jakarta JSON Processing 2.0 (JSON-P)
MicroProfile Config

NoSQL Database Types

Eclipse JNoSQL provides common annotations and interfaces. Thus, the same annotations and interfaces, Template and Repository, will work on the four NoSQL database types.

As a reference implementation for Jakarta NoSQL, Eclipse JNosql provides particular behavior to the database type required by the specification, including the Graph database type, it means, Eclipse JNoSQL covers the four NoSQL database types:

Key-Value
Column Family
Document
Graph

Key-Value

Jakarta NoSQL provides a Key-Value template to explore the specific behavior of this NoSQL type.

Eclipse JNoSQL offers a mapping implementation for Key-Value NoSQL types:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.eclipse.jnosql.mapping</groupId>
    <artifactId>jnosql-mapping-key-value</artifactId>
    <version>1.1.4</version>
</dependency>

Furthermore, check for a Key-Value databases. You can find some implementations in the JNoSQL Databases.

@Inject
KeyValueTemplate template;
...

Car ferrari = Car.id(1L).name("ferrari").city("Rome").type(CarType.SPORT);

template.put(ferrari);
Optional<Car> car = template.get(1L, Car.class);
template.delete(1L);

Key-Value is database agnostic. Thus, you can change the database in your application with no or minimal impact on source code.

You can define the database settings using the MicroProfile Config specification, so you can add properties and overwrite it in the environment following the Twelve-Factor App.

jnosql.keyvalue.database=<DATABASE>
jnosql.keyvalue.provider=<CLASS-DRIVER>
jnosql.provider.host=<HOST>
jnosql.provider.user=<USER>
jnosql.provider.password=<PASSWORD>

Tip	The `jnosql.keyvalue.provider` property is necessary when you have more than one driver in the classpath. Otherwise, it will take the first one.

These configuration settings are the default behavior. Nevertheless, there is an option to programmatically configure these settings. Create a class that implements the Supplier<BucketManager> interface and then define it using the @Alternative and @Priority annotations.

@Alternative
@Priority(Interceptor.Priority.APPLICATION)
@ApplicationScoped
public class ManagerSupplier implements Supplier<BucketManager> {

    @Produces
    public BucketManager get() {
        Settings settings = Settings.builder()
                .put("credential", "value")
                .build();
        KeyValueConfiguration configuration = new NoSQLKeyValueProvider();
        BucketManagerFactory factory = configuration.apply(settings);
        return factory.apply("database");
    }
}

You can work with several Key-Value database instances through the CDI qualifier. To identify each database instance, make a BucketManager visible for CDI by adding the @Produces and the @Database annotations in the method.

@Inject
@Database(value = DatabaseType.KEY_VALUE, provider = "databaseA")
private KeyValueTemplate templateA;

@Inject
@Database(value = DatabaseType.KEY_VALUE, provider = "databaseB")
private KeyValueTemplate templateB;

// producers methods
@Produces
@Database(value = DatabaseType.KEY_VALUE, provider = "databaseA")
public BucketManager getManagerA() {
    BucketManager manager = // instance;
    return manager;
}

@Produces
@Database(value = DatabaseType.KEY_VALUE, provider = "databaseB")
public BucketManager getManagerB() {
    BucketManager manager = // instance;
    return manager;
}

The KeyValue Database module provides a simple way to integrate the KeyValueDatabase annotation with CDI, allowing you to inject collections managed by the key-value database. This annotation works seamlessly with various collections, such as List, Set, Queue, and Map.

To inject collections managed by the key-value database, use the @KeyValueDatabase annotation in combination with CDI’s @Inject annotation. Here’s how you can use it:

import javax.inject.Inject;

// Inject a List<String> instance from the "names" bucket in the key-value database.
@Inject
@KeyValueDatabase("names")
private List<String> names;

// Inject a Set<String> instance from the "fruits" bucket in the key-value database.
@Inject
@KeyValueDatabase("fruits")
private Set<String> fruits;

// Inject a Queue<String> instance from the "orders" bucket in the key-value database.
@Inject
@KeyValueDatabase("orders")
private Queue<String> orders;

// Inject a Map<String, String> instance from the "orders" bucket in the key-value database.
@Inject
@KeyValueDatabase("orders")
private Map<String, String> map;

Column Family

Jakarta NoSQL provides a Column Family template to explore the specific behavior of this NoSQL type.

Eclipse JNoSQL offers a mapping implementation for Column NoSQL types:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.eclipse.jnosql.mapping</groupId>
    <artifactId>jnosql-mapping-column</artifactId>
    <version>1.1.4</version>
</dependency>

Furthermore, check for a Column Family databases. You can find some implementations in the JNoSQL Databases.

@Inject
ColumnTemplate template;
...

Car ferrari = Car.id(1L)
        .name("ferrari").city("Rome")
        .type(CarType.SPORT);

template.insert(ferrari);
Optional<Car> car = template.find(Car.class, 1L);

template.delete(Car.class).where("id").eq(1L).execute();

Optional<Car> result = template.singleResult("FROM Car WHERE _id = 1");

Column Family is database agnostic. Thus, you can change the database in your application with no or minimal impact on source code.

You can define the database settings using the MicroProfile Config specification, so you can add properties and overwrite it in the environment following the Twelve-Factor App.

jnosql.column.database=<DATABASE>
jnosql.column.provider=<CLASS-DRIVER>
jnosql.provider.host=<HOST>
jnosql.provider.user=<USER>
jnosql.provider.password=<PASSWORD>

Tip	The `jnosql.column.provider` property is necessary when you have more than one driver in the classpath. Otherwise, it will take the first one.

These configuration settings are the default behavior. Nevertheless, there is an option to programmatically configure these settings. Create a class that implements the Supplier<ColumnManager> interface, then define it using the @Alternative and @Priority annotations.

@Alternative
@Priority(Interceptor.Priority.APPLICrATION)
@ApplicationScoped
public class ManagerSupplier implements Supplier<DatabaseManager> {

    @Produces
    @Database(DatabaseType.COLUMN)
    public DatabaseManager get() {
        Settings settings = Settings.builder()
                .put("credential", "value")
                .build();
        DatabaseConfiguration configuration = new NoSQLColumnProvider();
        DatabaseManagerFactory factory = configuration.apply(settings);
        return factory.apply("database");
    }
}

You can work with several column database instances through CDI qualifier. To identify each database instance, make a ColumnManager visible for CDI by putting the @Produces and the @Database annotations in the method.

@Inject
@Database(value = DatabaseType.COLUMN, provider = "databaseA")
private ColumnTemplate templateA;

@Inject
@Database(value = DatabaseType.COLUMN, provider = "databaseB")
private ColumnTemplate templateB;

// producers methods
@Produces
@Database(value = DatabaseType.COLUMN, provider = "databaseA")
public ColumnManager getManagerA() {
    return manager;
}

@Produces
@Database(value = DatabaseType.COLUMN, provider = "databaseB")
public ColumnManager getManagerB() {
    return manager;
}

Document

Jakarta NoSQL provides a Document template to explore the specific behavior of this NoSQL type.

Eclipse JNoSQL offers a mapping implementation for Document NoSQL types:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.eclipse.jnosql.mapping</groupId>
    <artifactId>jnosql-mapping-document</artifactId>
    <version>1.1.4</version>
</dependency>

Furthermore, check for a Document databases. You can find some implementations in the JNoSQL Databases.

@Inject
DocumentTemplate template;
...

Car ferrari = Car.id(1L)
        .name("ferrari")
        .city("Rome")
        .type(CarType.SPORT);

template.insert(ferrari);
Optional<Car> car = template.find(Car.class, 1L);

template.delete(Car.class).where("id").eq(1L).execute();

Optional<Car> result = template.singleResult("FROM Car WHERE _id = 1");

Document is database agnostic. Thus, you can change the database in your application with no or minimal impact on source code.

You can define the database settings using the MicroProfile Config specification, so you can add properties and overwrite it in the environment following the Twelve-Factor App.

jnosql.document.database=<DATABASE>
jnosql.document.provider=<CLASS-DRIVER>
jnosql.provider.host=<HOST>
jnosql.provider.user=<USER>
jnosql.provider.password=<PASSWORD>

Tip	The `jnosql.document.provider` property is necessary when you have more than one driver in the classpath. Otherwise, it will take the first one.

These configuration settings are the default behavior. Nevertheless, there is an option to programmatically configure these settings. Create a class that implements the Supplier<DocumentManager>, then define it using the @Alternative and @Priority annotations.

@Alternative
@Priority(Interceptor.Priority.APPLICATION)
@ApplicationScoped
public class ManagerSupplier implements Supplier<DatabaseManager> {

    @Produces
    @Database(DatabaseType.DOCUMENT)
    public DatabaseManager get() {
        Settings settings = Settings.builder()
                .put("credential", "value")
                .build();
        DatabaseConfiguration configuration = new NoSQLDocumentProvider();
        DatabaseManagerFactory factory = configuration.apply(settings);
        return factory.apply("database");
    }
}

You can work with several document database instances through CDI qualifier. To identify each database instance, make a DocumentManager visible for CDI by putting the @Produces and the @Database annotations in the method.

@Inject
@Database(value = DatabaseType.DOCUMENT, provider = "databaseA")
private DocumentTemplate templateA;

@Inject
@Database(value = DatabaseType.DOCUMENT, provider = "databaseB")
private DocumentTemplate templateB;

// producers methods
@Produces
@Database(value = DatabaseType.DOCUMENT, provider = "databaseA")
public DocumentManager getManagerA() {
    return manager;
}

@Produces
@Database(value = DatabaseType.DOCUMENT, provider = "databaseB")
public DocumentManager getManagerB() {
    return manager;
}
