I was trying to return an average and count of a set of ratings in one query. I managed it fairly easily in two queries following the example I found browsing. For example:
@Query("SELECT AVG(rating) from UserVideoRating where videoId=:videoId")
public double findAverageByVideoId(@Param("videoId") long videoId);
but as soon as I wanted an average and a count in the same query, the trouble started. After many hours experimenting, I found this worked, so I am sharing it here. I hope it helps.
1) I needed a new class for the results:
The I had to reference that class in the query:
@Query("SELECT new org.magnum.mobilecloud.video.model.AggregateResults(AVG(rating) as rating, COUNT(rating) as TotalRatings) from UserVideoRating where videoId=:videoId")
public AggregateResults findAvgRatingByVideoId(@Param("videoId") long videoId);
One query now returns average rating and count of ratings
Solved myself.
Custom class to receive results:
public class AggregateResults {
private final double rating;
private final int totalRatings;
public AggregateResults(double rating, long totalRatings) {
this.rating = rating;
this.totalRatings = (int) totalRatings;
}
public double getRating() {
return rating;
}
public int getTotalRatings() {
return totalRatings;
}
}
and
@Query("SELECT new org.magnum.mobilecloud.video.model.AggregateResults(
AVG(rating) as rating,
COUNT(rating) as TotalRatings)
FROM UserVideoRating
WHERE videoId=:videoId")
public AggregateResults findAvgRatingByVideoId(@Param("videoId") long videoId);
