Spring Boot + JPA/Hibernate One to One mapping example

Hello everyone, In this tutorial, we will learn how to implement one-to-one entity mapping using JPA/Hibernate with Spring Boot, Spring Data JPA, and the H2DB database.

Maven[pom.xml] 

A Project Object Model or POM is the fundamental unit of work in Maven. It is an XML file that contains information about the project and configuration details utilized by Maven to build the project. It contains default values for most projects. Some of the configurations that can be designated in the POM is the project dependencies, the plugins or goals that can be executed, the build profiles, and so on. Other information such as the project version, description, developers, mailing lists, and such can withal be designated.

Modal class[Employee.class]

package com.example.demo.model;

import javax.persistence.*;

@Entity
@Table(name = "employees")
public class Employee {

@Id
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
@Column(name = "employeeId")
private Integer id;
@Column(name = "name")
private String name;
private Integer salary;

@OneToOne(cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
@JoinColumn(name = "id", referencedColumnName = "id")
private EmployeeContact employeeContact;

public Employee() {
}

public EmployeeContact getEmployeeContact() {
return employeeContact;
}

public void setEmployeeContact(EmployeeContact employeeContact) {
this.employeeContact = employeeContact;
}

public Integer getId() {
return id;
}

public Employee setId(Integer id) {
this.id = id;
return this;
}

public String getName() {
return name;
}

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

public Integer getSalary() {
return salary;
}

public Employee setSalary(Integer salary) {
this.salary = salary;
return this;
}

@Override
public String toString() {
return "Employee [id=" + id + ", name=" + name + ", salary="
+ salary + ", employeeContact=" + employeeContact
+ "]";
}
}


The @Entity annotation specifies that the class is an entity and is mapped to a database table. The @Table annotation specifies the name of the database table to be used for mapping. The @Id annotation specifies the primary key of an entity and the @GeneratedValue provides for the specification of generation strategies for the values of primary keys. The @Column annotation is used to specify the mapped column for a persistent property or field. If no Column annotation is specified, the default value will be applied.

Model class[EmployeeContact.class]

package com.example.demo.model;

import javax.persistence.Column;
import javax.persistence.Entity;
import javax.persistence.GeneratedValue;
import javax.persistence.GenerationType;
import javax.persistence.Id;
import javax.persistence.Table;

@Entity
@Table(name = "employee_contact")
public class EmployeeContact {

@Id
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
@Column(name = "id")
private Integer id;
private Long phoneNo;

public EmployeeContact() {
}

public Integer getId() {
return id;
}

public EmployeeContact setId(Integer id) {
this.id = id;
return this;
}

public Long getPhoneNo() {
return phoneNo;
}

public void setPhoneNo(Long phoneNo) {
this.phoneNo = phoneNo;
}

@Override
public String toString() {
return "EmployeeContact [id=" + id + ", phoneNo=" + phoneNo + "]";
}
}

Repository[EmployeeRepository.class]

package com.example.demo.repository;

import java.util.List;
import org.springframework.data.jpa.repository.JpaRepository;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Repository;
import com.example.demo.model.Employee;

@Repository
public interface EmployeeRepository extends JpaRepository<Employee, Integer> {
List<Employee> findByName(String name);

}


@Repository annotation is used to indicate that the class provides the mechanism for storage, retrieval, search, update and delete operation on objects.

Controller[HomeController.class]

package com.example.demo.controller;

import java.util.List;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.DeleteMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.GetMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.PathVariable;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.PostMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestBody;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController;
import com.example.demo.model.Employee;
import com.example.demo.repository.EmployeeRepository;

@RestController
@RequestMapping("employee")
public class HomeController {
@Autowired
EmployeeRepository employeeRepository;

@GetMapping
public List<Employee> findAll() {
return employeeRepository.findAll();

}

@PostMapping
public Employee saveEmployee(@RequestBody Employee employee) {
return employeeRepository.save(employee);

}

@GetMapping("/{employeeName}")
public List<Employee> findByName(@PathVariable("employeeName")
String employeeName) {
return employeeRepository.findByName(employeeName);

}

@DeleteMapping("/{id}")
public String deleteEmployee(@PathVariable("id") Integer id) {
try {
employeeRepository.deleteById(id);
return "Deleted successfully";
} catch (Exception e) {
return "Failed to delete";
}
}
}


The @RestController annotation was introduced in Spring 4.0 to simplify the engendering of RESTful web services. It's a convenience annotation that combines @Controller and @ResponseBody. @RequestMapping annotation maps HTTP requests to handler methods of MVC and REST controllers.

Main Class

package com.example.demo;

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.boot.CommandLineRunner;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import com.example.demo.model.Employee;
import com.example.demo.model.EmployeeContact;
import com.example.demo.repository.EmployeeRepository;

@SpringBootApplication
public class SpringbootJpaHibernateOnetoonemappingApplication
implements CommandLineRunner {
@Autowired
EmployeeRepository employeeRepository;

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

@Override
public void run(String... args) throws Exception {
Employee employee = new Employee();
employee.setName("sibin");
employee.setSalary(12500);
EmployeeContact contact = new EmployeeContact();
contact.setPhoneNo(111111111111l);
employee.setEmployeeContact(contact);
employeeRepository.save(employee);

}
}


The @SpringBootApplication annotation is a convenience annotation that combines the @EnableAutoConfiguration, @Configuration and the @ComponentScan annotations.

Run & Test 

Run Spring Boot application with the command: mvn spring-boot:run

Add New Employee


Fetch All Employee


Delete Employee By Id
