Spring Data dynamic query

Question

I\'m trying to set up a dynamic query using spring data, basically I have an array with a bunch of characteristics and I need to assemble the query based on those characteristic

Answer 1

Use Spring Data JPA Querydsl. Read it here

Answer 2

Yes. @Query supports pageable.. and yes there's another way to accomplish this.

You could take a look at building query with criteria, that allow you add AND / OR where conditions dynamically. I actually use querydsl to facilitate my development.
