Sample application that demonstrates entity revisions with Spring Data Envers.
Spring Data Jpa provides rough audit information. However if you are looking for what are the exact changes being made to an entity you can do so with Spring Data Envers.
As the name has suggested Spring Data Envers utilises and simplifies the usage of Hibernate Envers.
In order to enable Envers features we will first include spring-data-envers as dependency.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.data</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-data-envers</artifactId>
</dependency>Next is to inform Spring Boot that we would like do enable Envers' features. This can be done by annotating a @Configuration
class with @EnableJpaRepositories(repositoryFactoryBeanClass = EnversRevisionRepositoryFactoryBean.class).
Example can be seen in RepositoryConfiguration:
@Configuration
@EnableJpaRepositories(
repositoryFactoryBeanClass = EnversRevisionRepositoryFactoryBean.class
)
public class RepositoryConfiguration {
}By annotating an @Entity with @Audited, we are informing Spring that we would like respective entity to be audited.
The following example shows that we want all activities related to Book to be audited:
@Entity
@Audited
public class Book {
@Id
@GeneratedValue
private Long id;
@NotBlank
private String author;
@NotBlank
private String title;
}Next is to extend a Repository class in order to allow us to utilise audit revision features. This can be done by extending
RevisionRepository interface to our Repository class. An example can be seen in BookRepository:
public interface BookRepository extends JpaRepository<Book, Long>, RevisionRepository<Book, Long, Integer> {
}We will be utilising on @SpringBootTest to verify that our implementation works.
@SpringBootTest
class BookRepositoryRevisionsTest {
@Autowired
private BookRepository repository;
@Test
void initialRevision() {
Book book = repository.save(
Book.builder().author("Rudyard Kipling").title("Jungle Book").build()
);
Revisions<Integer, Book> revisions = repository.findRevisions(book.getId());
assertThat(revisions)
.isNotEmpty()
.allSatisfy(revision -> assertThat(revision.getEntity())
.extracting(Book::getId, Book::getAuthor, Book::getTitle)
.containsExactly(book.getId(), book.getAuthor(), book.getTitle())
);
}
}@SpringBootTest
class BookRepositoryRevisionsTest {
@Autowired
private BookRepository repository;
@Test
void updateIncreasesRevisionNumber() {
Book book = repository.save(
Book.builder().author("Rudyard Kipling").title("Jungle Book").build()
);
book.setTitle("If");
repository.save(book);
Optional<Revision<Integer, Book>> revision = repository.findLastChangeRevision(book.getId());
assertThat(revision)
.isPresent()
.hasValueSatisfying(rev ->
assertThat(rev.getRevisionNumber()).hasValue(2)
)
.hasValueSatisfying(rev ->
assertThat(rev.getEntity())
.extracting(Book::getTitle)
.containsOnly("If")
);
}
}@SpringBootTest
class BookRepositoryRevisionsTest {
@Autowired
private BookRepository repository;
@Test
void deletedItemWillHaveRevisionRetained() {
Book book = repository.save(
Book.builder().author("Rudyard Kipling").title("Jungle Book").build()
);
repository.delete(book);
Revisions<Integer, Book> revisions = repository.findRevisions(book.getId());
assertThat(revisions).hasSize(2);
Iterator<Revision<Integer, Book>> iterator = revisions.iterator();
Revision<Integer, Book> initialRevision = iterator.next();
Revision<Integer, Book> finalRevision = iterator.next();
assertThat(initialRevision)
.satisfies(rev ->
assertThat(rev.getEntity())
.extracting(Book::getId, Book::getAuthor, Book::getTitle)
.containsExactly(book.getId(), book.getAuthor(), book.getTitle())
);
assertThat(finalRevision)
.satisfies(rev -> assertThat(rev.getEntity())
.extracting(Book::getId, Book::getTitle, Book::getAuthor)
.containsExactly(book.getId(), null, null)
);
}
