I'm working with Spring Boot + Spring Data JPA and facing this problem when trying to inject a class that extends CrudRepository:
Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException:
Error creating bean with name 'topicRepository': Could not resolve
matching constructor (hint: specify index/type/name arguments for
simple parameters to avoid type ambiguities)
Repository Class:
public interface TopicRepository extends CrudRepository<Topic, Integer> {}
Service Class:
@Service
public class TopicService {
@Autowired
private TopicRepository topicRepository;
}
Any suggestions?
I was having the same issue, and I fixed it by switching Spring Boot versions. Changing the Spring Data JPA versions did nothing (this is where I assumed the bug would be), so I think there is a bug in Spring Boot version 1.5.1. I switched back to version 1.4.3 and the error was gone. I didn't try subsequent/different versions, so you may just have to experiment with your dependencies and their versions.
For the record, you can have your service class annotated with @Repository
, it shouldn't make any difference. I've been setting these apps up the same way using the service/dao pattern, and it has never been too picky with the annotations. Hopefully this may help others whose Spring Boot development flow suddenly throws an error!
Which versions of spring-data-commons and spring-data-jpa are you using. I just ran into this using spring-data-commons 1.13.x with spring-data-jpa 1.10.x. Upgrading spring-data-jpa to 1.11.x fixed the issue for me.
Make sure:
1) TopicRepository is annotated with @Repository
.
2) You have the scanning packages configured:
<jpa:repositories base-package="mypkg.repositories"></jpa:repositories>
I too had the same issue after updating Spring Boot to 1.5.4.
I am also using spring-data-envers
, which was at version 1.0.4. Upgrading to 1.4.1 solved the problem.
I hope it helps someone :)
Had the same issue on 1.5.2. Upgrading to 1.5.5 solved the problem.
You can use Applicationcontext to inject repository to this reference topicRepository..
You just declare applicationcontext in @rest controller class
Same like topicRepository by using annotation. Then you pass this to the service class which should take parms through constructor.
Ex-
public TopicService(Applicationcontext ctx) {this.topicRepository =context.getBean(TopicRepository.class);
}
