Spring Data JPA: query ManyToMany

Question

I have entities User and Test

@Entity
public class User {
    private Long id;
    private String userName;
}

@Entity
public class         


        

Answer 1

I was using @JoinTable and I got it working with this :

@Query("select t from Test t join t.users u where u.username = :username")
List<Test> findAllByUsername(@Param("username") String username);

t.users u instead of User u

Answer 2

The following method signature will get you want to want:

List<Test> findByUsers_UserName(String userName)

This is using the property expression feature of Spring Data JPA. The signature Users_UserName will be translated to the JPQL x.users.userName. Note that this will perform an exact match on the given username.

Answer 3

Other answer shows how to achieve desired functionality using function naming technique. We can achieve same functionality using @Query annotation as follows:

@Query("select t from Test t join User u where u.username = :username")
List<Test> findAllByUsername(@Param("username")String username);
