I'd like to write a query like this
@Query("select p from Product p where p.name = ?1 or p.desc like %?1%")
but it gives me the exception
org.hibernate.hql.ast.QuerySyntaxException: unexpected token: % near line 1,
I tried replacing % with '%' or concatenating the query string like this: "select ... like '%'" + "?1" + "'%'" but with no luck, please help me
If you are using Spring Data JPA version 1.3.1 or later you need to do the following:
@Query("select p from Product p where p.name = :name or p.desc like %:name%")
public List<Product> searchByName(@Param("name") String name);
Check out this blog post for more details
Prior to Spring Data JPA 1.3.1, you could not use %
in the @Query annotation, but instead you needed to add it in the argument itself
use the CONCAT as following:
@Query("select p from Product p where p.name = ?1 or p.desc like CONCAT('%',?1,'%') ")
Use :
. And you can use identifiers.
@Query("select p from Product p where p.name = :productName or p.desc like :productDescription")
And then
query.setParameter("productName", theName);
Check out the JPQL specification to learn the differences between JPQL and SQL.
UPDATE: In the case of the LIKE
operator, the %
are put in the value, not in the JPQL.
query.setParameter("productDescription", "%" + partialDescription + "%");
