JPA - SwitchYard 1.1

The jpa binding in SwitchYard provides support for consuming and storing JPA entities. It supports both sides - service binding for entity consumption and reference for entity storing.

The JPA binding is built on top of camel-jpa and supports most of options for this endpoint. Please reffer camel documentation for detailed description of them.

Generic options

Following options can be apiled to <binding.jpa> definition:

entityClassName
persistenceUnit
transactionManager

Binding Services with JPA

Supported options are:

consumeDelete
consumeLockEntity
maximumResults
consumer.query
consumer.namedQuery
consumer.nativeQuery
consumer.resultClass
consumer.transacted

The consumeLockEntity option causes problems with transaction management.

Here's an example of what a mail service binding looks like:

<sca:composite name="camel-binding" targetNamespace="urn:switchyard-quickstart:camel-binding:0.1.0">
    <sca:service name="GreetingService" promote="GreetingService">
        <camel:binding.jpa>
            <camel:entityClassName>org.switchyard.quickstarts.camel.jpa.binding.domain.Greet</camel:entityClassName>
            <camel:persistenceUnit>JpaEvents</camel:persistenceUnit>
            <camel:transactionManager>#jtaTransactionManager</camel:transactionManager>
            <camel:consume>
                <camel:consumeLockEntity>false</camel:consumeLockEntity>
                <camel:consumer.transacted>true</camel:consumer.transacted>
            </camel:consume>
        </camel:binding.jpa>
    </sca:service>
</sca:composite>

Binding References with JPA

Binding a reference with jpa can be used to store entity. The following configuration options are available for binding.jpa when binding references:

flushOnSend
usePersist

<sca:composite name="camel-binding" targetNamespace="urn:switchyard-quickstart:camel-binding:0.1.0">
    <sca:reference name="GreetingService" promote="camel-binding/GreetingService" multiplicity="1..1">
        <camel:binding.jpa>
            <camel:entityClassName>org.switchyard.quickstarts.camel.jpa.binding.domain.Greet</camel:entityClassName>
            <camel:persistenceUnit>JpaEvents</camel:persistenceUnit>
            <camel:produce>
                <camel:flushOnSend>false</camel:flushOnSend>
            </camel:produce>
        </camel:binding.jpa>
    </sca:reference>
</sca:composite>
