Parameter in like clause JPQL

Question

I am trying to write a JPQL query with a like clause:

LIKE \'%:code%\'

I would like to have code=4 and find

455
554
646
...


        

Answer 1

I don't know if I am late or out of scope but in my opinion I could do it like:

String orgName = "anyParamValue";

Query q = em.createQuery("Select O from Organization O where O.orgName LIKE '%:orgName%'");

q.setParameter("orgName", orgName);

Answer 2

Use JpaRepository or CrudRepository as repository interface:

@Repository
public interface CustomerRepository extends JpaRepository<Customer, Integer> {

    @Query("SELECT t from Customer t where LOWER(t.name) LIKE %:name%")
    public List<Customer> findByName(@Param("name") String name);

}


@Service(value="customerService")
public class CustomerServiceImpl implements CustomerService {

    private CustomerRepository customerRepository;
    
    //...

    @Override
    public List<Customer> pattern(String text) throws Exception {
        return customerRepository.findByName(text.toLowerCase());
    }
}

Answer 3

Just leave out the ''

LIKE %:code%

Answer 4

You could use the JPA LOCATE function.

LOCATE(searchString, candidateString [, startIndex]): Returns the first index of searchString in candidateString. Positions are 1-based. If the string is not found, returns 0.

FYI: The documentation on my top google hit had the parameters reversed.

SELECT 
  e
FROM 
  entity e
WHERE
  (0 < LOCATE(:searchStr, e.property))

Answer 5

There is nice like() method in JPA criteria API. Try to use that, hope it will help.

CriteriaBuilder cb = em.getCriteriaBuilder();
CriteriaQuery criteriaQuery = cb.createQuery(Employees.class);
Root<Employees> rootOfQuery = criteriaQuery.from(Employees.class);
criteriaQuery.select(rootOfQuery).where(cb.like(rootOfQuery.get("firstName"), "H%"));

Answer 6

1. Use below JPQL query.

select i from Instructor i where i.address LIKE CONCAT('%',:address ,'%')");

2. Use below Criteria code for the same:

@Test
public void findAllHavingAddressLike() {
    CriteriaBuilder cb = criteriaUtils.criteriaBuilder();
    CriteriaQuery<Instructor> cq = cb.createQuery(Instructor.class);
    Root<Instructor> root = cq.from(Instructor.class);
    printResultList(cq.select(root).where(
        cb.like(root.get(Instructor_.address), "%#1074%")));
}
