Bug tracker

You can report bug/feature: http://issues.hibernatingrhinos.com/issues/RDBC

Getting started

  1. Initialize document store (you should have one DocumentStore instance per application)
DocumentStore store = new DocumentStore("http://live-test.ravendb.net", "databaseName");
store.initialize();
  1. Open a session
try (IDocumentSession session = store.openSession()) {
    // here goes your code
}
  1. Call saveChanges() once you're done:
User user = session.load(User.class, "users/1-A");
user.setPassword("new password");
session.saveChanges();
// data is persisted 
// you can proceed e.g. finish web request

CRUD example

Storing documents

Product product = new Product();
product.setTitle("iPhone X");
product.setPrice(999.99);
product.setCurrency("USD");
product.setStorage(64);
product.setManufacturer("Apple");
product.setInStock(true);

session.store(product, "products/");
System.out.println(product.getId()); // products/1-A
session.saveChanges();

Loading documents

Product product = session.load(Product.class, "products/1-A");
System.out.println(product.getTitle());   // iPhone X
System.out.println(product.getId());      // Products/1-A

Loading documents with includes

try (IDocumentSession session = store.openSession()) {
    // users/1
    // {
    //      "name": "John",
    //      "kids": ["users/2", "users/3"]
    // }
    User user1 = session.include("kids")
        .load(User.class, "users/1");
    // Document users/1 is going to be pulled along
    // with docs referenced in "kids" field within a single request

    User user2 = session.load(User.class, "users/2"); // this won't call server again
    assertThat(user1)
        .isNotNull();
    assertThat(user2)
        .isNotNull();
    assertThat(session.advanced().getNumberOfRequests())
        .isEqualTo(1);
}

Updating documents

Product product = session.load(Product.class, "products/1-A");
product.setInStock(false);
product.setLastUpdate(new Date());
session.saveChanges();
// ...
product = session.load(Product.class, "products/1-A");
System.out.println(product.getInStock());     // false
System.out.println(product.getLastUpdate())   // 2018-06-05T13:52:31.633Z

Deleting documents

  1. Using entity
Product product = session.load(Product.class, "products/1-A");
session.delete(product);
session.saveChanges();

product = session.load(Product.class, "products/1-A");
assertThat(product)
    .isNull();
  1. Using document ID
session.delete("products/1-A");

Querying documents

  1. Use query() session method:

By collection:

IDocumentQuery<Product> query = session.query(Product.class);

By index name:

IDocumentQuery<Product> query = session.query(Product.class, Products_ByCategory.class);
  1. Build up the query - apply conditions, set ordering etc. Query supports chaining calls:
query
    .waitForNonStaleResults()
    .usingDefaultOperator(QueryOperator.AND)
    .whereEquals("manufacturer", "Apple")
    .whereEquals("inStock", true)
    .whereBetween("lastUpdate", lastYearDate, new Date())
    .orderBy("price");
  1. Finally, you may get query results:
List<Product> products = query.toList();
// ...
Product firstOne = query.first(); // gets first result
// ...
Product single = query.single();  // gets single result

session.query(User.class)
    .orderBy("age") // .randomOrdering()
    .toList();
// [ User {
//     name: 'Stefanie',

//     kids: [ 'Dmitri', 'Mara' ],
//     id: 'users/1-A' } ]

take()

Limits the number of result entries to count.

// RQL
// from users order by age
session.query(User.class)
    .orderBy("age")
    .take(2)
    .toList();
// [ User {
//     name: 'Stefanie',
//     age: 25,
//     registeredAt: 2015-07-29T22:00:00.000Z,
//     id: 'users/2-A' },

//     age: 25,
//     registeredAt: 2016-04-24T22:00:00.000Z,
//     id: 'users/3-A' } ]

skip()

Skips first count results.

// RQL
// from users order by age
session.query(User.class)
    .orderBy("age")
    .take(1)
    .skip(1)
    .toList();
// [ User {
//     name: 'Thomas',
//     age: 25,
//     registeredAt: 2016-04-24T22:00:00.000Z,
//     id: 'users/3-A' } ]

Getting query statistics

To obtain query statistics use statistics() method.

Reference<QueryStatistics> statsRef = new Reference<>();
List<User> users = session.query(User.class)
    .whereGreaterThan("age", 29)
    .statistics(statsRef)
    .toList();
// QueryStatistics {
//   isStale: false,
//   durationInMs: 744,
//   totalResults: 1,
//   skippedResults: 0,
//   timestamp: 2018-09-24T05:34:15.260Z,
//   indexName: 'Auto/users/Byage',
//   indexTimestamp: 2018-09-24T05:34:15.260Z,
//   lastQueryTime: 2018-09-24T05:34:15.260Z,
//   resultEtag: 8426908718162809000 }

toList() / first() / single() / count()

toList() - returns all results

first() - first result

single() - first result, throws error if there's more entries

count() - returns the count of the results (not affected by take())

Attachments

Store attachments

User doc = new User();
doc.setName("John");

// track entity
session.store(doc);

// get read stream or buffer to store
FileInputStream fileStream = new FileInputStream("../photo.png")

// store attachment using entity
session.advanced().attachments()
    .store(doc, "photo.png", fileStream, "image/png");

// OR using document ID
session.advanced().attachments()
    .store(doc.getId(), "photo.png", fileStream, "image/png");

session.saveChanges();

Get attachments

try (CloseableAttachmentResult closeableAttachmentResult 
    = session.advanced().attachments().get(documentId, "photo.png")) {
    // closeableAttachmentResult.getDetails() contains information about the attachemnt
    //     { 
    //       name: 'photo.png',
    //       documentId: 'users/1-A',
    //       contentType: 'image/png',
    //       hash: 'MvUEcrFHSVDts5ZQv2bQ3r9RwtynqnyJzIbNYzu1ZXk=',
    //       changeVector: '"A:3-K5TR36dafUC98AItzIa6ow"',
    //       size: 4579 
    //     }
    InputStream is = closeableAttachmentResult.getData();
    // is contains attachment data
}

Check if attachment exists

session.advanced().attachments().exists(doc.getId(), "photo.png");
// true

session.advanced().attachments().exists(doc.getId(), "not_there.avi");
// false

Get attachment names

// use a loaded entity to determine attachments' names
AttachmentName[] names = session.advanced().attachments().getNames(doc);
// [ { name: 'photo.png',
//     hash: 'MvUEcrFHSVDts5ZQv2bQ3r9RwtynqnyJzIbNYzu1ZXk=',
//     contentType: 'image/png',
//     size: 4579 } ]

Bulk Insert

// create bulk insert instance using DocumentStore instance
try (BulkInsertOperation bulkInsert = store.bulkInsert()) {

    // insert your documents
    for (String name: Arrays.asList("Anna", "Maria", "Miguel", "Emanuel", "Dayanara", "Aleida")) {
        User user = new User();
        user.setName(name);
        bulkInsert.store(user);
    }

    // auto flush by closing bulkInsert operation
}
// User { name: 'Anna', id: 'users/1-A' }
// User { name: 'Maria', id: 'users/2-A' }
// User { name: 'Miguel', id: 'users/3-A' }
// User { name: 'Emanuel', id: 'users/4-A' }
// User { name: 'Dayanara', id: 'users/5-A' }
// User { name: 'Aleida', id: 'users/6-A' }

Changes API

Listen for database changes e.g. document changes.

CleanCloseable subscription = store
    .changes()
    .forAllDocuments()
    .subscribe(Observers.create(change -> {
        System.out.println(change.getType() + " on document " + change.getId());
    }));

// close when you are done
subscription.close();

Streaming

Stream documents with ID prefix

 try (CloseableIterator<StreamResult<User>> stream 
    = session.advanced().stream(User.class, "users/")) {
    while (stream.hasNext()) {
        StreamResult<User> next = stream.next();
        User document = next.getDocument();
        // do something with document
    }
}

Stream query results

// create a query
IDocumentQuery<User> query = session.query(User.class)
    .whereGreaterThan("age", 29);

Reference<StreamQueryStatistics> statsRef = new Reference<>();
                
try (CloseableIterator<StreamResult<User>> stream 
    = session.advanced().stream(query, statsRef)) {
    while (stream.hasNext()) {
        StreamResult<User> item = stream.next();
        User user = item.getDocument();
    }
}

Revisions

NOTE: Please make sure revisions are enabled before trying one of the below.

User user = new User();
user.setName("Marcin");
user.setAge(30);
user.setPet("users/4");

try (IDocumentSession session = store.openSession()) {
    session.store(user, "users/1");
    session.saveChanges();

    // modify the document to create a new revision
    user.setName("Roman");
    user.setAge(40);

    session.saveChanges();
}


// get revisions
List<User> revisions = session.advanced()
    .revisions()
    .getFor(User.class, "users/1");
// [ { name: 'Roman',
//     age: 40,
//     pet: 'users/4',
//     '@metadata': [Object],
//     id: 'users/1' },
//   { name: 'Marcin',
//     age: 30,
//     pet: 'users/4',
//     '@metadata': [Object],
//     id: 'users/1' } ]

Suggestions

// users collection
// [ User {
//     name: 'John',
//     age: 30,
//     registeredAt: 2017-11-10T23:00:00.000Z,
//     kids: [Array],
//     id: 'users/1-A' },

// and a static index like:
public static class UsersIndex extends AbstractIndexCreationTask {
    public UsersIndex() {
        map = "from user in docs.users select new { user.name }";
        suggestion("name");
    }
}

// ...
try (IDocumentSession session = store.openSession()) {
    Map<String, SuggestionResult> results = session.query(User.class, UsersIndex.class)
        .suggestUsing(x -> x.byField("name", "Jon"))
        .execute();
}
// { name: { name: 'name', suggestions: [ 'john' ] } }

Advanced patching

session.advanced().increment("users/1", "age", 1);
// increments *age* field by 1

session.advanced().patch("users/1", "underAge", false);
// sets *underAge* field to *false*

session.saveChanges();

Working with secured server

// load certificate
KeyStore clientStore = KeyStore.getInstance("PKCS12");
clientStore.load(new FileInputStream("c:\\ravendb\\client-cert.pfx"), "passwordToPfx".toCharArray());

try (DocumentStore store = new DocumentStore())  {
    store.setCertificate(clientStore);
    store.setDatabase("Northwind");
    store.setUrls(new String[]{ "https://my_secured_raven" });

    store.initialize();

    // do your work here
}
