spring-data – Andrea Girardi

Sometime it happens to receive a JSON string than need to be visualized without knowing the structure. Suppose we have an HTML table:

<tbody id="reportTable">					
</tbody>

To populate this table with jQuery it’s possible to use this simple code:

var rows = ${reportRows};
var html = $.each(rows, function(key, value){
 
	$("#reportTable").append("<tr>");
 
	$.each(value, function (key, data) {
		$("#reportTable").append("<td>" + data + "</td>");
	});
 
	$("#reportTable").append("</tr>");
 
});

${reportRows} comes from a Spring MVC Controller and it’s a Java string generates using Jackson (or Gson) in this way:

ColumnMapRowMapper rowMapper = new ColumnMapRowMapper();
List<Map<String, Object>> reportDataList =  getJdbcTemplate().query(sqlComplete, rowMapper);
 
ObjectWriter ow = new ObjectMapper().writer().withDefaultPrettyPrinter();
String json = ow.writeValueAsString(reportDataList);

So, we have a query that return a not know number of column (suppose your code dynamically generate the query), we translate the results in JSON and we use jQuery to render the results.

Suppose you need to apply some filters to your MongoDB query, for example to extract some _ids that match a regex condition. This is the way to do that:

Query query;
query.addCriteria(Criteria.where("_id").in(IDs).and(query_field).regex(".*" + query_value + ".*", "i"));

In this example I used the Query (see here) and Criteria (see here) classes

And, this is the query you can use in mongoDB (Robomongo* or command line):

Query: { 
	"_id" : { "$in" : [ "ID1" , "ID2" , "ID3" ]} , 
	"detail.medicationBrandName" : { "$regex" : ".*x.*" , "$options" : "i"}}, 
	Fields: null, Sort: { "medicationGenericName" : -1}
}

*Robomongo: is a shell-centric cross-platform open source MongoDB management tool (i.e. Admin GUI). Robomongo embeds the same JavaScript engine that powers MongoDB’s mongo shell. You can download it here.
