Is it possible to construct such query in run-time in grails/groovy ?
Let's say I have:
def query = Person.where {
age in 18..65
}
and in run-time I wanna add weight to it as :
def query = Person.where {
age in 18..65
weight in 100..200
}
possible ?
I would use Criteria Queries instead. They allow you to dynamically construct queries like you want very easily. For example, you could create a criteria like this:
def result = Person.createCriteria {
'in'("age", [18..65])
if (params.includeWeight) {
'in'("weight", [100..200])
}
}.list()
Person.where is a method that takes a Closure as argument. A feature that closures have is composition. Here's an example from Groovy Goodness:
def convert = { new Expando(language: it) }
def upper = { it.toUpperCase() }
// Composition.
def upperConvert = convert << upper
So you can do something like:
def defaultWhere = {
age in 18..65
}
if(someRuntimeTest) {
defaultWhere << {
weight in 100..200
}
}
Person.where(defaultWhere)

I'm trying to use the createCriteria in a grails application to return some rows from a DB. I'm not getting any results.
def query = {
ilike('fullName','%${params.term}%')
projections {
property('id')
property('fullName')
}
}
def plist = Patient.createCriteria().list(query)
def patientSelectList = []
plist.each {
def pMap = [:]
pMap.put("id", it[0])
pMap.put("label", it[1])
pMap.put("value", it[1])
patientSelectList.add(pMap)
}
the fields i'm looking for exist as the following snippet returns results but is very slow.
def patientList = Patient.getAll()
def patientSelectList = []
patientList.each { patient ->
if (patient.fullName.toLowerCase().contains(params.term.toLowerCase()) ) {
def pMap = [:]
pMap.put("id", patient.id)
pMap.put("label", patient.fullName)
patientSelectList.add(pMap)
}
}
return patientSelectList
thanks for anyhelp
I had my Db fields encryted with jasypt. Removing the encryption on the field I needed to query fixed the issue!
You're using a String rather than a GString in the ilike() parameter, so params.term is not being evaluated. To use a GString, use double-quotes instead.
ilike('fullName',"%${params.term}%")
Also make sure % is an appropriate wildcard character for your database (it probably is).
New to groovy, grails.
I have the following query where I want to match a few paramater exactly to as passed(eq), but for one, which I want to using a 'like'
if (params.ret_code) {
ret_cod = params.ret_code+"%"
}
def srchresults = DmnObj.where {
if (params.doc_num) { doc_num == params.doc_num.trim() } //works as expected
//How do I do this????
if (params.retn_code) { retn_code like ret_cod }
}
Tried this, but in-vain.
how do I set retn_code with a like?
Thank you!
This is how you can do this
// case sensitive like
def result = Domain.where {
fieldName ==~ "value"
}
// case insensitive like
def result = Domain.where {
fieldName =~ "value"
}
Remember to prefix, suffix or both the value with %. For more about where queries https://grails.github.io/grails-doc/latest/guide/GORM.html#whereQueries
You can do like this:
var feel []DB.Feelings
db.Where("column_name LIKE ?", "%"+yourText+"%").Limit(your_limit).Offset(your_offset).Find(&feel)
column_name is your column name
Limit and Offset are not required
You can do like this:
def result = DomainClass.where{
like('fieldName', '%'+myVariable+'%')
}
I suggest you have a look at the Grails documentation (section Domain Class Usage): you will find several interesting ways to filter your domain class objects as for example HQL queries or findAllBy* dynamic methods.
When using projection on the properties, the result is returned as the list with the elements in the same sequence as that defined in the projections block. At the same time the property names are missing from the list and that is really disadvantageous to the developer as the result would be passed along and the caller needs to know what value belongs to which property. Is there a way to return a map from the Criteria query with property name as the key to the value?
so, the following code:
def c = Trade.createCriteria()
def remicTrades = c.list {
projections {
property('title', 'title')
property('author.name', 'author')
}
def now = new Date()
between('publishedDate', now-365, now)
}
This returns:
[['book1', 'author1']['book2', 'author2']]
Instead I would like it to return:
[[book:'book1', author:'author1'][book:'book2', author:'author2']]
I know I can arrange this way after getting the result but I earnestly feel that the property alias should have been used by the criteria to return a list of map that mimics the result of the SQL query and not a bland list.

And the corresponding answer (and solution): https://stackoverflow.com/a/16409512/1263227
Use resultTransformer.
import org.hibernate.criterion.CriteriaSpecification
Trade.withCriteria {
resultTransformer(CriteriaSpecification.ALIAS_TO_ENTITY_MAP)
projections {
property('title', 'title')
property('author.name', 'author')
}
def now = new Date()
between('publishedDate', now-365, now)
}
Agree with your question reasoning, this really should be part of the core GORM solution. That said, here's my workaround;
def props = ['name','phone']
def query = Person.where {}.projections {
props.each{
property(it)
}
}
def people = query.list().collect{ row->
def cols = [:]
row.eachWithIndex{colVal, ind->
cols[props[ind]] = colVal
}
cols
}
println people // shows [['name':'John','phone':'5551212'],['name':'Magdalena','phone':'5552423']]
Imagine I have the following query:
def result = Test.createCriteria().list(params) {
// image here a lot of assocs, criterias, ...
}
In many cases you need the row count of the query above, e.g. list actions of many controllers.
def resultTotal = Test.createCriteria().list(params) {
// Imagine here a lot of assocs, criterias, ...
// Change to the criteria above is only the projection block
projections { rowCount() }
}
How can I avoid this?
You can:
Extract the Criteria creation to a conditional factory/builder method;
Use named queries;
Use named query parameters (and Groovy code!) to alter the query "on the fly", like:
.
static namedQueries = {
byLocation { Location location ->
if (location) {
... // some more criteria logic
}
}
}
If you aren't paginating the results of the query, you can simply do the following after the first query is invoked:
def resultTotal = result?.size()
For the same set of query being used at many places, I create them as a closure and change its delegate to the criteria in question.
For example :
def query = {
projections{
rowCount()
}
eq('type', myType)
}
def criteria = Customer.createCriteria()
query.delegate = criteria
myType = CustomerType.guest
List records = criteria.list(params) {
query()
}
I use totalCount like this:
def list() {
def myInstanceList = MyInstance.createCriteria().list(params){
eq('name', params.name)
}
[myInstanceList: myInstanceList, myInstanceListTotal: myInstanceList.totalCount]
}
Is this possible to convert in createCriteria()?
SELECT * FROM node WHERE (node.type = 'act' AND nid NOT IN (SELECT nid FROM snbr_act_community)) LIMIT 10
I know there's a 'in' operator and here's what I have so far:
def c = VolunteerOpportunity.createCriteria()
def matchingActs = c.list {
node {
eq('type', 'act')
}
maxResults(10)
}
Just want to see if this is possible. Otherwise, I guess this is possible in HQL right?
thanks Sammyrulez for the code. got an idea from that. tested it but it didn't work. i fixed it and here's the final working code:
def ids = [14400 as long, 14401 as long]
def c = VolunteerOpportunity.createCriteria()
def matchingActs = c.list {
node {
eq('type', 'act')
not { 'in'(ids) }
}
maxResults(10)
}
now i know how to use 'not' operator. thanks a lot!
not tried it myself but looking at the Grails doc and hibernate api you create nodes on this builder map with the static methods found in the Restrictions class of the Hibernate Criteria API 1. So something like
def c = VolunteerOpportunity.createCriteria()
def matchingActs = c.list {
node {
not(in('propertyName', ['val1','val2']))
}
maxResults(10)
}
Since you chain the in method (that returns a Criterion) with the not method (that takes a Criterion as argument and returns a negated version)
this is the solution :
def resultat=EnteteImputationBudgetaire.createCriteria().get{
between("dateDebutPeriode", dateDebut, dateFin)
and{ eq 'natureImputationBudgetaire','FONCTIONNEMENT' }
maxResults(1)
}
def resultat2=ParametragePlanBudgetaire.createCriteria().list() {
like('composantBudgetaire','6%')
if(resultat?.details) {
not {
'in'('composantBudgetaire',resultat?.details?.imputationBudgetaire)
}
}
}
According to Grails documentation about creating criteria here, you can use something like this:
not {'in'("age",[18..65])}
In this example, you have a property named "age" and you want to get rows that are NOT between 18 and 65. Of course, the [18..65] part can be substituted with any list of values or range you need.
Just remembering: in this case you don't have to use parenthesis and you can use inList, for example:
not { inList 'age',[18..65] }
