ArangoDB v3.13 is under development and not released yet. This documentation is not final and potentially incomplete.
Repositories
Interact with ArangoDB using the high-level and consistent abstraction provided by Spring Data repositories
Spring Data Commons provides a composable repository infrastructure which
Spring Data ArangoDB is built on. These allow for interface-based composition of
repositories consisting of provided default implementations for certain
interfaces (like CrudRepository) and custom implementations for other methods.
The base interface of Spring Data ArangoDB is ArangoRepository. It extends the
Spring Data interfaces PagingAndSortingRepository and QueryByExampleExecutor.
To get access to all Spring Data ArangoDB repository functionality simply create
your own interface extending ArangoRepository<T, ID>.
The type T represents your domain class and type ID the type of your field
annotated with @Id in your domain class. This field is persisted in ArangoDB
as document field _key.
Examples
@Document
public class MyDomainClass {
@Id
private String id;
}
public interface MyRepository extends ArangoRepository<MyDomainClass, String> {
}
Instances of a Repository are created in Spring beans through the auto-wired mechanism of Spring.
public class MySpringBean {
@Autowired
private MyRepository rep;
}
