JPA query using a database function to use a speci

问题:

I have a table named vehicle which has a column named VIN. Users need the ability to search based on the last 6 characters of the VIN. So I've added an index in Postgres like so:

  CREATE INDEX "ix_vin_last_6" ON vehicle(RIGHT(vin,6));

I added a few test records as follows:

LAST6VIN_A_123456
LAST6VIN_B_123456
LAST6VIN_C_123456

Using SpringDataJPA repository, here is one way to query for the above test records:

List<Vehicle> findByVinEndingWith(String vin)

But the JPA query generated above uses a LIKE clause, like so:

where
    vehicle0_.vin like ?

How do I make a repository method to query for the above 3 test records using the last 6 characters that uses the index I created above so that it generates this query:

SELECT vin, year, make, model
FROM vehicle 
WHERE RIGHT(vin,6) = '123456';

The above query works fine when I execute it using pgadmin command line.

回答1:

JPQL supports (since JPA 2.1 IIRC) calling arbitrary database functions using function:

select v from Vehicle v
where function('RIGHT', v.vin, 6) = :endOfVin
