Simple and powerful query builder for your project. Can be use with any existing Hibernate or JPA application.
Stop wasting your time to maintain complex HQL queries and start today with the new generation of query builder.

Torpedo Query Quick Start Guide

Step 1: Set Up Your Environment

Start by importing the necessary classes from the Torpedo Query library. This will enable you to use the query methods directly.

import static org.torpedoquery.jpa.Torpedo.*;

Step 2: Simple Select Query

A basic query retrieves all columns for the Entity rows. This can be compared to SQL's SELECT *.

Entity entity = from(Entity.class);
org.torpedoquery.jpa.Query<Entity> selectQuery = select(entity);

Step 3: Scalar Queries

Scalar queries return specific columns rather than the entire row. This is useful when you only need particular data points.

Entity entity = from(Entity.class);
org.torpedoquery.jpa.Query<String> scalarQuery = select(entity.getCode());

Step 4: Executing Your Query

After constructing your query, execute it using an EntityManager to retrieve results. Here, we're getting a list of entities.

Entity entity = from(Entity.class);
org.torpedoquery.jpa.Query<Entity> selectQuery = select(entity);
List<Entity> entityList = selectQuery.list(entityManager);

Step 5: Adding Conditions

Queries can be filtered using conditions. Here, we're querying entities with a specific code.

Entity entity = from(Entity.class);
where(entity.getCode()).eq("mycode");
org.torpedoquery.jpa.Query<Entity> conditionalQuery = select(entity);

The .eq("mycode") is equivalent to SQL's WHERE code = 'mycode'.

Step 6: Joining Entities

Torpedo Query supports joining tables. Here's how you can create an inner join between Entity and its associated SubEntity.

Entity entity = from(Entity.class);
SubEntity subEntity = innerJoin(entity.getSubEntities());
org.torpedoquery.jpa.Query<String[]> joinQuery = select(entity.getCode(), subEntity.getName());

The result will be a combination of entity.getCode() and subEntity.getName() for each matching row.

Step 7: Grouping Conditions

Complex conditions can be grouped together using logical operations like and & or.

Entity fromEntity = from(Entity.class);
OnGoingLogicalCondition groupedCondition = condition(fromEntity.getCode()).eq("test")
                                               .or(fromEntity.getCode()).eq("test2");
where(fromEntity.getName()).eq("test").and(groupedCondition);
Query<Entity> groupedSelect = select(fromEntity);

Here, we're selecting entities where the name equals "test" and the code is either "test" or "test2".


Remember, always refer to the official documentation of Torpedo Query for a comprehensive understanding and best practices. This guide is meant to get you started quickly, but the library offers much more flexibility and depth.
