Spring Boot JdbcClient CRUD Example

In this section, we're gonna build CRUD REST APIs using Spring Boot application that use Spring JdbcClient to interact with PostgreSQL database.

We are recommending you to cover Spring JdbcClient Example tutorial to get better understanding about JdbcClient. 


What we will build?

We will build CRUD RESTFul APIs for a Simple Student Management System using Spring Boot, JDBC API, and the PostgreSQL database. In this application we use JdbcClient to interact with PostgreSQL database.


Creating a spring boot application

First, open the Spring initializr https://start.spring.io

Then, Provide the Group and Artifact name. We have provided Group name com.knf.dev.demo and Artifact spring-boot-jdbcclient-crud. Here I selected the Maven project - language Java 17 - Spring Boot 3.2.0, Spring Web,JDBC API, and PostgreSQL Driver.

Then, click on the Generate button. When we click on the Generate button, it starts packing the project in a .zip(spring-boot-jdbcclient-crud) file and downloads the project. Then, Extract the Zip file. 

Then, import the project on your favourite IDE.

application.yaml 

For creating table via schema.sql, we need to set the spring.sql.init.mode=always.

If you are running the application with real postgresql database, then configure Spring Boot to use PostgreSQL as data source. We are simply adding PostgreSQL database URL, username, and password in the src/main/resources/application.yaml.

spring:
  datasource:
    url: jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/postgres
    username: postgres
    password: root
  sql:
    init:
      mode: always


Create schema.sql

To generate a database schema at application start, the file schema.sql with the corresponding SQL commands for schema creation must be stored in the resources folder.

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS students (
  id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
  name VARCHAR(250) NOT NULL,
  email VARCHAR(250) NOT NULL,
  gender VARCHAR(250) NOT NULL,
  age INT
);


Create Model - Student.java

Let's create a new package called model inside com.knf.dev.demo package and then create the Student class inside the model package with the following contents - 

package com.knf.dev.demo.model;

public class Student{

    private Long id;
    private String name;
    private String email;
    private Integer age;
    private String gender;

    public Student() {
    }

    public Student(Long id, String name,
                   String email, Integer age, String gender) {
        this.id = id;
        this.name = name;
        this.email = email;
        this.age = age;
        this.gender = gender;
    }

    public Long getId() {
        return id;
    }

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

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    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 String getGender() {
        return gender;
    }

    public void setGender(String gender) {
        this.gender = gender;
    }
}


Create StudentDAO.java

Let's create a new package called dao inside com.knf.dev.demo package and then create the following interface inside the repository package - 

package com.knf.dev.demo.dao;

import com.knf.dev.demo.model.Student;

import java.util.List;
import java.util.Optional;

public interface StudentDAO {

    Integer insertStudent(Student student);

    Student updateStudent(Student student);

    void deleteStudent(Long id);

    List<Student> getAllStudents();

    Optional<Student> findStudentById(Long id);

}


Create StudentDAOImpl.java

Create the StudentDAOImpl class inside the dao package with the following contents - 

package com.knf.dev.demo.dao;

import com.knf.dev.demo.model.Student;
import org.springframework.jdbc.core.RowMapper;
import org.springframework.jdbc.core.simple.JdbcClient;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Repository;

import java.sql.ResultSet;
import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.sql.Types;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Optional;

@Repository
public class StudentDAOImpl implements StudentDAO {

    private JdbcClient jdbcClient;

    public StudentDAOImpl(JdbcClient jdbcClient) {
        this.jdbcClient = jdbcClient;
    }

    @Override
    public Integer insertStudent(Student student) {

        String sql = "INSERT INTO students (name, email, gender, age)"
                        + "VALUES (:name, :email, :gender, :age)";
       return this.jdbcClient.sql(sql)
                .param("name", student.getName(), Types.VARCHAR)
                .param("email", student.getEmail(), Types.VARCHAR)
                .param("gender", student.getGender(), Types.VARCHAR)
                .param("age", student.getAge(), Types.INTEGER)
                .update();
    }

    @Override
    public Student updateStudent(Student student) {

        String sql = "update students set name = :name, email = :email, " +
                        "gender= :gender, age = :age where id = :id";

         jdbcClient.sql(sql)
                .param("name", student.getName())
                .param("email", student.getEmail())
                .param("gender", student.getGender())
                .param("age", student.getAge())
                .param("id", student.getId())
                .update();
         return findStudentById(student.getId()).get();
    }

    @Override
    public void deleteStudent(Long id) {

        String sql = "delete from students where id = :id";
        jdbcClient.sql(sql).param("id", id).update();
    }

    //Using  Varargs
    @Override
    public List<Student> getAllStudents() {

        String sql = "select id, name, age, email, gender, age from students";

        return jdbcClient.sql(sql)
                .query(new StudentRowMapper()).list();
    }

    @Override
    public Optional<Student> findStudentById(Long id) {

        String sql = "select id, name, age, gender, " +
                       "email from students where id = :id";

        return jdbcClient.sql(sql)
                .param("id", id)
                .query(Student.class)
                .optional();
    }

    static class StudentRowMapper implements RowMapper<Student> {
        @Override
        public Student mapRow(ResultSet rs, int rowNum) throws SQLException {
            return new Student(
                    rs.getLong("id"),
                    rs.getString("name"),
                    rs.getString("email"),
                    rs.getInt("age"),
                    rs.getString("gender"));
        }
    }
}
JdbcClient is auto-configured for us in Spring Boot.
Above JdbcClient is used and injected in the component class. Initialise a final JdbcClient object and create a constructor injection using this field.

Here, we are wiring objects together using method chaining helps accomplish readability and usability.


Create StudentController.java

Let's create a new package called controller inside com.knf.dev.demo package and then create the StudentController class inside the controller package with the following contents - 

package com.knf.dev.demo.controller;

import com.knf.dev.demo.dao.StudentDAOImpl;
import com.knf.dev.demo.model.Student;
import org.springframework.http.HttpStatus;
import org.springframework.http.ResponseEntity;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.*;

import java.util.List;

@RestController
@RequestMapping("/api/v1/students")
public class StudentController {

    private final StudentDAOImpl studentDAO;

    public StudentController(StudentDAOImpl studentDAO) {
        this.studentDAO = studentDAO;
    }

    @PostMapping
    public ResponseEntity<Integer> createStudent(
            @RequestBody Student student) {

        studentDAO.insertStudent(student);
        return ResponseEntity.ok().build();
    }

    @GetMapping("/{id}")
    public ResponseEntity<Student> getStudent(@PathVariable Long id) {

        return studentDAO.findStudentById(id)
                .map(ResponseEntity::ok)
                .orElse(ResponseEntity.notFound().build());
    }

    @GetMapping
    public ResponseEntity<List<Student>> getAllStudents() {

        return ResponseEntity.ok(studentDAO.getAllStudents());
    }

    @PutMapping("/{id}")
    public ResponseEntity<Student> updateStudent(@PathVariable Long id,
                                                 @RequestBody Student student) {

        Student _student = studentDAO.findStudentById(id).orElseThrow();
        _student.setAge(student.getAge());
        _student.setName(student.getName());
        _student.setEmail(student.getEmail());
        _student.setGender(student.getGender());

        return ResponseEntity.ok(studentDAO.updateStudent(_student));
    }

    @DeleteMapping("/{id}")
    public ResponseEntity<Void> deleteStudent(@PathVariable Long id) {

        studentDAO.deleteStudent(id);
        return ResponseEntity.noContent().build();
    }
}


Application.java

package com.knf.dev.demo;

import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;

@SpringBootApplication
public class Application {

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

}


Write Unit test for StudentController 

The StudentController is a @RestController and thus part of the Web Layer that we want to test.

Create StudentControllerTests

When using JUnit 4, this annotation should be used in combination with @RunWith(SpringRunner.class). But for this example  we are using JUnit 5, there’s no need to add the equivalent @ExtendWith(SpringExtension.class).

Java Stream API - How to convert List of objects to another List of objects using Java streams?

Image
In this section, we will show you how to convert a List of objects to another List of objects in Java using the Java streams map(). The ‘map’ method maps each element to its corresponding result. Java Stream API   The Java Stream API provides a functional programming approach over the object oriented capabilities of Java. It is used for processing collections of objects. The Stream in Java can be defined as a sequence of elements from a source List, Set or Array. Most of the stream operations return a Stream. This avails engender a chain of stream operations(stream pipe-lining). The streams withal support the aggregate or terminal operations on the elements. for example, finding the sum or maximum element or finding the average etc...Stream operations can either be executed sequentially or parallel. when performed parallelly, it is called a parallel stream.   Stream map() Method   The Java 8 Stream map() is an intermediate operation. It converts Stream<obj1> to Stream<obj2>

Top 5 Java ORM tools - 2024

Image
  The term ORM refers to object-relational mapping, which uses objects to adapt programming languages to database systems while allowing them to function with SQL and object-oriented programming ideas. Any kind of database management system that can accomplish object mapping to the table in the virtual system is suitable for the implementation of ORM. Java has a wide variety of ORM tools, some of which are mentioned below: 1. Hibernate Hibernate is a lightweight, open-source, non-invasive Java ORM (Object-Relational Mapping) framework that allows developers to create objects that function independently of database software and create persistence logic in any Java or JavaEE application.

Java - Blowfish Encryption and decryption Example

Image
Blowfish is an encryption method developed by Bruce Schneier in 1993 as an alternative to the DES encryption method. It is significantly faster than DES and provides good encryption speed, although no effective cryptanalysis technique has been found to date. It is one of the first secure block ciphers that is not protected by any patents and is therefore freely available for anyone to use. This is a symmetric block cipher algorithm. Block size: 64 bits Key size: variable size from 32 to 448 bits number of subsections: 18 [P-array] number of rounds: 16 number of substitution blocks: 4 [each with 512 records of 32 bits each] develop  Example 1: Encryption and decryption using Blowfish import java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException; import java.nio.charset.Charset; import java.security.InvalidKeyException; import java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException; import java.util.Base64; import javax.crypto.BadPaddingException; import javax.crypto.Cipher; import javax.crypto.IllegalBlockSizeExc
