Complex SQL programming in Java

Java and SQL have come a long way. SQL is an "old", yet established and well-understood technology. Java is a legacy too, although its platform JVM allows for many new and contemporary languages built on top of it. Yet, after all these years, libraries dealing with the interface between SQL and Java have come and gone, leaving JPA to be a standard that is accepted only with doubts, short of any surviving options.
ObjectiveSQL has come to fill this gap.

Features

  • With one annotation your Class has fully featured capabilities of SQL programming
  • Easy to relational(has_one, has_many and beglongs_to) query and paged query
  • Writing SQL expressions(arithmetic, comparison and logical) with Java syntax

Java codes:

// SQL programming with Java syntax without losing the features of SQL syntax
Order.Table orderTable = Order.asTable();
Select select = new Select();

select.project(sum(orderTable.amount) / sum(orderTable.quantity) * 100)
        .from(orderTable)
        .where(orderTable.quantity > 30 &&
            orderTable.salesAt.between("2020-10-10 00:00:00", "2020-10-30 23:59:59"))
        .groupBy(orderTable.productId);
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

SQL generated:

-- SQL syntax is the same as Java syntax
SELECT ((((SUM(`T0`.`amount` ) / SUM(`T0`.`quantity` ) )) * 100))
FROM `orders` AS `T0`
WHERE ((`T0`.`quantity` > 30) AND 
       `T0`.`sales_at` BETWEEN '2020-10-10 00:00:00' AND '2020-10-30 23:59:59')
GROUP BY `T0`.`product_id`
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
