MongoDB with SpringData

Here is a simple example to show how easy to write a CRUD Java application using SpringData for MongoDB

First of all install and start MongoDB. You need only 3 files to get things going; The domain object, CRUDInterface and CRUDImplementation
Make sure you have the required mongo and spring-data-mongodb jar files in the classpath.

The domain object

package jerry.jacob.mongo.test;

import org.springframework.data.annotation.Id;
import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.mapping.Document;

@Document
public class Employee {
	@Id
	private String id;
	private String firstName;
	private String lastName;
	private int age;

	public Employee(String id, String firstName, String lastName,int age) {
		this.id = id;
		this.firstName = firstName;
		this.lastName = lastName;
                this.age = age;
	}

	public String getId() {
		return id;
	}

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

	public String getFirstName() {
		return firstName;
	}

	public void setFirstName(String firstName) {
		this.firstName = firstName;
	}

	public String getLastName() {
		return lastName;
	}

	public void setLastName(String lastName) {
		this.lastName = lastName;
	}

	public int getAge() {
		return age;
	}

	public void setAge(int age) {
		this.age = age;
	}

	@Override
	public String toString() {
		return "Employee [id=" + id + ", first name=" + firstName + ", last name=" + lastName + ", age=" + age + "]";
	}
}

CRUDInterface

package jerry.jacob.mongo.test;

import java.util.List;
import com.mongodb.WriteResult;

public interface CRUDInterface {
	public List getAllObjects();

	public void saveObject(O object);

	public O getObject(String id);

	public WriteResult updateObject(String id, String name);

	public void deleteObject(String id);

	public void createCollection();

	public void dropCollection();
}

CRUDImplementation

package jerry.jacob.mongo.test;

import java.util.List;
import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.MongoTemplate;
import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.query.Criteria;
import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.query.Query;
import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.query.Update;
import com.mongodb.WriteResult;

public class CRUDImplementation implements CRUDInterface {
	MongoTemplate mongoTemplate;

	public void setMongoTemplate(MongoTemplate mongoTemplate) {
		this.mongoTemplate = mongoTemplate;
	}

	/**
	 * Get all Employees.
	 */
	public List getAllObjects() {
		return mongoTemplate.findAll(Employee.class);
	}

	/**
	 * Saves an Employee.
	 */
	public void saveObject(Employee employee) {
		mongoTemplate.insert(employee);
	}

	/**
	 * Gets an Employee for a particular id.
	 */
	public Employee getObject(String id) {
		return mongoTemplate.findOne(new Query(Criteria.where("id").is(id)),
				Employee.class);
	}

	/**
	 * Updates an Employee name for a particular id.
	 */
	public WriteResult updateObject(String id, String lastName) {
		return mongoTemplate.updateFirst(
				new Query(Criteria.where("id").is(id)),
				Update.update("lastName", lastName), Employee.class);
	}

	/**
	 * Delete an Employee for a particular id.
	 */
	public void deleteObject(String id) {
		mongoTemplate
				.remove(new Query(Criteria.where("id").is(id)), Employee.class);
	}

	/**
	 * Create a Employee collection if the collection does not already exists
	 */
	public void createCollection() {
		if (!mongoTemplate.collectionExists(Employee.class)) {
			mongoTemplate.createCollection(Employee.class);
		}
	}

	/**
	 * Drops the Employee collection if the collection does already exists
	 */
	public void dropCollection() {
		if (mongoTemplate.collectionExists(Employee.class)) {
			mongoTemplate.dropCollection(Employee.class);
		}
	}
}

Spring applicationContext.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
	xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
	xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/context
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context-3.0.xsd">

	<bean id="employeeRepository"
		class="jerry.jacob.mongo.test.CRUDImplementation">
		<property name="mongoTemplate" ref="mongoTemplate" />
	</bean>

	<bean id="mongoTemplate" class="org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.MongoTemplate">
		<constructor-arg name="mongo" ref="mongo" />
		<constructor-arg name="databaseName" value="nature" />
	</bean>

	<!-- Factory bean that creates the Mongo instance -->
	<bean id="mongo" class="org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.MongoFactoryBean">
		<property name="host" value="localhost" />
		<property name="port" value="27017" />
	</bean>

	<!-- Activate annotation configured components -->
	<context:annotation-config />

	<!-- Scan components for annotations within the configured package -->
	<context:component-scan base-package="jerry.jacob.mongo.test">
		<context:exclude-filter type="annotation"
			expression="org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration" />
	</context:component-scan>
</beans>

Finally Test it

      public static void main(String[] args) {

		ConfigurableApplicationContext context = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext(
				"classpath:/applicationContext.xml");

		Repository repository = context.getBean(CRUDImplementation.class);

		// cleanup collection before insertion
		repository.dropCollection();

		// create collection
		repository.createCollection();

		repository.saveObject(new Employee("1", "Jerry", "Jacob", 30));
	}
