Spring Data Elasticsearch Inheritance-CodePudding

Is there any way to make a super-class document (e.g. index name = user) and create two child classes (Admin, Guest) to save all this to user index but with different fields? E.g. Add to super-class field type and based on this field fetch right entity? ELK 7.19, Spring Data 4.3.1.

CodePudding user response：

You can do that. Make the base class abstract. I have this in a test setup with the following classes:

@Document(indexName = "type-hints")
public abstract class BaseClass {

    @Id
    private String id;

    @Field(type = FieldType.Text)
    private String baseText;

    public String getId() {
        return id;
    }

    public void setId(String id) {
        this.id = id;
    }

    public String getBaseText() {
        return baseText;
    }

    public void setBaseText(String baseText) {
        this.baseText = baseText;
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return "BaseClass{"  
            "id='"   id   '\''  
            ", baseText='"   baseText   '\''  
            '}';
    }
}

public class DerivedOne extends BaseClass {
    @Field(type = FieldType.Text)
    private String derivedOne;

    public String getDerivedOne() {
        return derivedOne;
    }

    public void setDerivedOne(String derivedOne) {
        this.derivedOne = derivedOne;
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return "DerivedOne{"  
            "derivedOne='"   derivedOne   '\''  
            "} "   super.toString();
    }
}

public class DerivedTwo extends BaseClass {
    @Field(type = FieldType.Text)
    private String derivedTwo;

    public String getDerivedTwo() {
        return derivedTwo;
    }

    public void setDerivedTwo(String derivedTwo) {
        this.derivedTwo = derivedTwo;
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return "DerivedTwo{"  
                "derivedTwo='"   derivedTwo   '\''  
                "} "   super.toString();
    }
}

interface TypeHintRepository extends ElasticsearchRepository<BaseClass, String> {
    SearchHits<? extends BaseClass> searchAllBy();
}

@RestController
@RequestMapping("/typehints")
public class TypeHintController {

    private static final Logger LOGGER = LoggerFactory.getLogger(TypeHintController.class);

    private final TypeHintRepository repository;

    public TypeHintController(TypeHintRepository repository) {
        this.repository = repository;
    }

    @GetMapping
    public void test() {

        List<BaseClass> docs = new ArrayList<>();

        DerivedOne docOne = new DerivedOne();
        docOne.setId("one");
        docOne.setBaseText("baseOne");
        docOne.setDerivedOne("derivedOne");
        docs.add(docOne);

        DerivedTwo docTwo = new DerivedTwo();
        docTwo.setId("two");
        docTwo.setBaseText("baseTwo");
        docTwo.setDerivedTwo("derivedTwo");
        docs.add(docTwo);

        repository.saveAll(docs);

        SearchHits<? extends BaseClass> searchHits = repository.searchAllBy();

        for (SearchHit<? extends BaseClass> searchHit : searchHits) {
            LOGGER.info(searchHit.toString());
        }
    }
}
