quarkus-mongodb-panache support for prePersist/posPersist operations

[diogocarleto]

Hi guys, hope you are doing well.

In JPA it is possible to use annotations such as @PrePersist, @PostPersist to execute oparations before and after the persist/merge.

What if we implement this on mongodb panache, I took a look and it seems pretty simple to implement.

We can use the MongoOperations.persist, and MongoOperations.update to apply a kind of interceptor scanning the entity for a method using these annotations, and execute those methods.

Bellow a snippet of code:

@PrePersist
public void prePersist() {
    System.out.println("prePersis");
}

@PostPersist
public void postPersist() {
    System.out.println("postPersist");
}

I didn't send this yet for the dev@googlegroups.com, let me know if this idea is a good, and if I have to send to googlegroups.

Best,

So, everytime I needed custom actions I just overrode the original method:

public class Order extends MongoPanacheEntity {
 @Override
 public void persist(){
  // pre-persist
  super.persist();
  // post-persist
 }
}

Is that not enough?

Yes, I think so :), lets close this one.

Thanks @FroMage.
