How to persist a new entity containing multiple identical instances of another unpersisted entity with spring-boot and JPA?

问题


Overview:

I'm building a spring-boot application which, in part, retrieves some entities from an external REST service and compares it to previous versions of the entity held locally in a database.

I'm injecting EntityManager with @PersistenceContext, and using that to work with the database, as there are many entity types, and the type is initially unknown to the module. I could get a JpaRepository from a factory, but the number of different entity types is liable to grow, and I'd rather not rely on that if at all possible.

Problem:

When the module retrieves an entity which it doesn't hold in the database, it does some business logic and then tries to persist the new entity.

The Person class, which is one of the entities in question, contains three fields of type Site, which often hold the same objects.

When I try to persist a new Person which has the same Site object in multiple fields with CascadeType.PERSIST, I get an EntityExistsException (see stacktrace (1)).

When I remove the CascadeType.PERSIST from the Site fields, and try to persist a new Person which has the same Site object in multiple fields, I get a TransientPropertyValueException (see stacktrace (2)).

I think I understand the reasons why both exceptions occur:

  • In the first case it's because after the first site field is cascade-persisted, it cannot be repersisted for the second field.

  • The second case I think is because the the @Transactional annotation is trying to flush the transaction without the site instance(s) being persisted.

I've tried removing the @Transactional annotation and beginning and commiting an EntityTransaction myself, but I get an IllegalStateException (see stacktrace (3)), though I think this is expected as spring should be handling the transactions itself.

I've looked at answers to similar questions (e.g. this, this) but all suggest some variation of changing the CascadeType.

In another question someone suggested to make sure that the entities in question were being evaluated correctly by the equals() method, so I checked in the debugger, and ((Person)newEntity).currentSite.equals(((Person)newEntity).homeSite) evaluates to true.

How can I go about consistently persisting/merging entities with the same object accross multiple fields?

Edit: I've also tried the various combinations of cascade types with fetch = FetchType.EAGER, but this produces no change in their respective exceptions.

Edit 2: I've tried using a JpaRepository instead of using the EntityManager, and get effectively the same set of exceptions depending on what cascade types I'm using.

If I use PERSIST, but no MERGE, I get an EntityNotFoundException (see stacktrace (4)), and if I use both PERSIST and MERGE I get an InvalidDataAccessApiUsageException` (see stacktrace (5)).

Person:

@EqualsAndHashCode(callSuper = true)
@javax.persistence.Entity
@XmlDiscriminatorValue("person")
@XmlRootElement(name = "person")
@XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
@XmlSeeAlso({Subscriber.class})
public class Person extends MobileResource implements Serializable {

        super(that);
        this.firstName = that.firstName;
        this.surname = that.surname;
    }

    // getters && setters
}

MobileResource:

@Entity

Site:

    private static final Logger LOG = LogManager.getLogger(Site.class);

    private String location;

    public Site() {

}

Resource:

@EqualsAndHashCode
@MappedSuperclass
@XmlRootElement
@XmlSeeAlso({MobileResource.class})
public abstract class Resource implements Entity, Serializable {

    private static final Logger LOG = LogManager.getLogger(Resource.class);

    @Id

    private ResourceType    type;

    public Resource() {

    public Resource(Long id) {
        this.id = id;

    public Resource(Resource that) {
        this.id = that.id;

        this.batchId = that.batchId;
        this.brigadeId = that.brigadeId;
        this.type = that.type;
    }

    // getters && setters
}

DefaultEntityMessageHandler:

@Component
public class DefaultEntityMessageHandler implements EntityMessageHandler {


    @PersistenceContext
    private EntityManager entityManager;

    @Override
    @Transactional
    public void handleEntityMessage(EntityMessageData data, Message message) {

        // business logic

            if (oldEntity != null)
                entityManager.merge(newEntity);
            else
                entityManager.persist(newEntity);
        }
    }

After days of search, I finally solved this in my spring boot project.

Add follwing blocks in the application.yaml file:

  jpa:
    properties:
      hibernate:
        enable_lazy_load_no_trans: true
        event:
          merge:
            entity_copy_observer: allow
