I am using mapstruct to map my model to my DTO.
I want to search for a record by the full name.
I do not understand why I get the following errors:
Error creating bean with name 'customerController'
Error creating bean with name 'customerServiceImpl'
Error creating bean with name 'customerRepository'
No property name found for type Customer!
this is my project
public interface CustomerMapper {
CustomerMapper INSTANCE = Mappers.getMapper(CustomerMapper.class);
@Mapping(source = "lastName", target = "lastName")
CustomerDTO customerToCustomerDTO(Customer customer);
}
@Data
public class CustomerDTO {
private String firstName;
private String lastName;
}
@Data
@Entity
@Getter
@Setter
public class Customer {
@Id
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
private Long id;
private String firstName;
private String name;
}
@Data
@NoArgsConstructor
@AllArgsConstructor
public class CustomerListDTO {
List<CustomerDTO> categories;
}
@Controller
@RequestMapping("api/v1/customers")
public class CustomerController {
private final CustomerService customerService;
public CustomerController(CustomerService customerService) {
this.customerService = customerService;
}
@GetMapping("{name}")
public ResponseEntity<CustomerDTO> getCustomerByName(@PathVariable String name) {
return new ResponseEntity<>(
customerService.getCustomerByName(name), HttpStatus.OK
);
}
public interface CustomerRepository extends JpaRepository<Customer, Long> {
Customer findByName(String x);
}
public interface CustomerService {
CustomerDTO getCustomerByName(String name);
}
@AllArgsConstructor
@Service
public class CustomerServiceImpl implements CustomerService {
CustomerMapper customerMapper;
CustomerRepository customerRepository;
@Override
public CustomerDTO getCustomerByName(String lastName) {
return customerMapper.customerToCustomerDTO(customerRepository.findByName(lastName));
}
}
This is a potential fix: would be to map the below in the CustomerMapper, but to me it doesn't feel right.
@Mapping(source = "name", target = "lastName")
@Mapping(source = "firstName", target = "firstName")
In the documentation, it is said that you can map whatever field from model to DTO, I think there might be something wrong in my code.
The way I try implementing in the repo, service, controller.
Edit:
Maybe a solution would be to use DTO in Repository?
Update:
@Override
public CustomerDTO getCustomerByName(String lastName) {
return customerRepository.findByName(lastName).map(customerMapper::customerToCustomerDTO);
}
.map cannot be used.
for .map to be used I should use code like this
.findAll()
.stream()
.map(customerMapper::customerToCustomerDTO)
.collect(Collectors.toList());
I am using the findByName method however, that doesn't have access to .map.
How can I solve that problem?
EDIT
this is how my Customer I think should look like
@Data
@NoArgsConstructor
@AllArgsConstructor
public class CustomerDTO {
private String id;
private String firstName;
private String lastName;
}
