royletron / bean-loader Goto Github PK

BeanLoader will attempt to automatically map column names to bean accessors via the four main methods:

• first
• each
• collect
• map

public static <T> T first(Class<T> type, PreparedStatement preparedStatement)
public static <T> Iterable<T> each(Class<T> type, PreparedStatement preparedStatement)
public static <T, C extends Collection<T>> C collect(Class<T> type, C collection, PreparedStatement preparedStatement)
public static <K, V extends KeyedBean<K>, M extends Map<K, V>> M map(Class<V> type, M map, PreparedStatement preparedStatement)

It will correctly handle Enums, Dates, primitives and any Object with a constructor that takes a String.
Additional TypeLoaders can be added to expand this behaviour, and the UTC DateFormat used to process Dates can be set manually (which you may have to do if you are not using MySQL).

Some examples:

PreparedStatement preparedStatement = connection.prepareStatement(“SELECT * FROM people”);

List people = BeanLoader.collect(Person.class, new ArrayList(), preparedStatement);

and:

for (Person person : BeanLoader.each(Person.class, preparedStatement))
{
    System.out.println(person.getName());
}

and maps:

public class Person implements BeanLoader.KeyedBean {

    private int id;

    public Integer getKey() { return this.getId(); }

    public int getId() { return this.id; }

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

private String name;
…
}
…
SortedMap<Integer, Person> people = BeanLoader.map(Person.class, new TreeMap<Integer, Person>(), preparedStatement);

for legacy mappings or joins, look to SQL and AS:

public class Comment {
    private String commentBody;
    public String getCommentBody() { return this.commentBody; }
    public void setCommentBody(String commentBody) { this.commentBody = commentBody; }

    private int parentId;
    ...
}

// here's where the magic happens:
String statement = "SELECT comments.body AS commentBody, comments.parent_id AS parentId, FROM posts, comments";

...

NOTE: Due to the heavy use of Generics, this’ll require Java 1.5 or greater.
