jpa持久化嵌套java对象_Spring JPA – 持久化嵌套对象

我有一个简单的JPA存储库,如下所示：

public interface UserRepository extends JpaRepository

{

User findByName(String name);

}

还有两个具有OneToOne映射的类,如下所示：

@Entity

public class User

{

@Id

@GeneratedValue(generator = "uuid")

@GenericGenerator(name = "uuid", strategy = "uuid2")

protected String uuid;

@Column(nullable = false, unique = true)

private String name;

@Column(nullable = false)

private String email;

@OneToOne(fetch = FetchType.EAGER, cascade = CascadeType.ALL, mappedBy = "user")

private PlayerCharacter playerCharacter;

//...

}

.

@Entity

public class PlayerCharacter

{

@Id

@GeneratedValue(generator = "uuid")

@GenericGenerator(name = "uuid", strategy = "uuid2")

protected String uuid;

@OneToOne(optional = true)

private User user;

@Column(nullable = false)

private String characterName;

//...

}

现在,我知道我可以轻松地编辑和持久化这样的用户实例：

User user = userRepository.findByName("Alice");

PlayerCharacter character = user.getPlayerCharacter();

character.setCharacterName("ConanTheBarbarian");

userRepository.save(user);

但是如何在我没有指向User实例的指针的上下文中持久保存PlayerCharacter实例,f.：

public void changePlayerCharacterName(PlayerCharacter character, String name){

character.setCharacterName(name);

// How to correctly persist the 'character' instance here?

}

我可以只调用userRepository.save(character);?

我是否需要自动装配另一个存储库(PlayerCharacterRepository)并在其上调用.save()？
