How we can make the id field of the string type a primary key?


Entity id  

@Id
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
private String id;


Trying to save 

Student student = new Student();
student.setId("tetasasa");
student.setName("Peter Smith");
student.setEmail("peter.smith@gmail.com");
student.setAddress("New York, USA");
student.setPhone("123456-2111");
studentRepository.save(student);


Error

Caused by: org.hibernate.PersistentObjectException: detached entity passed to persist: org.example.entities.Student


Solution 

@Id 
@GeneratedValue(generator="system-uuid")
@GenericGenerator(name="system-uuid", strategy = "uuid")
private String id;

Mastering Java Logging: A Guide to Debug, Info, Warn, and Error Levels

Comprehensive Guide to Java Logging Levels: Trace, Debug, Info, Warn, Error, and Fatal Comprehensive Guide to Java Logging Levels: Trace, Debug, Info, Warn, Error, and Fatal Logging is an essential aspect of application development and maintenance. It helps developers track application behavior and troubleshoot issues effectively. Java provides various logging levels to categorize messages based on their severity and purpose. This article covers all major logging levels: Trace , Debug , Info , Warn , Error , and Fatal , along with how these levels impact log printing. 1. Trace The Trace level is the most detailed logging level. It is typically used for granular debugging, such as tracking every method call or step in a complex computation. Use this level sparingly, as it can generate a large volume of log data. 2. Debug The Debug level provides detailed information useful during dev...

Choosing Between Envoy and NGINX Ingress Controllers for Kubernetes

As Kubernetes has become the standard for deploying containerized applications, ingress controllers play a critical role in managing how external traffic is routed to services within the cluster. Envoy and NGINX are two of the most popular options for ingress controllers, and each has its strengths, weaknesses, and ideal use cases. In this blog, we’ll explore: How both ingress controllers work. A detailed comparison of their features. When to use Envoy vs. NGINX for ingress management. What is an Ingress Controller? An ingress controller is a specialized load balancer that: Manages incoming HTTP/HTTPS traffic. Routes traffic to appropriate services based on rules defined in Kubernetes ingress resources. Provides features like TLS termination, path-based routing, and host-based routing. How Envoy Ingress Controller Works Envoy , initially built by Lyft, is a high-performance, modern service proxy and ingress solution. Here's how it operates in Kubernetes: Ingress Resource : You d...

Learning How to Map One-to-Many Relationships in JPA Spring Boot with PostgreSQL

  Introduction In this blog post, we explore how to effectively map one-to-many relationships using Spring Boot and PostgreSQL. This relationship type is common in database design, where one entity (e.g., a post) can have multiple related entities (e.g., comments). We'll dive into the implementation details with code snippets and provide insights into best practices. Understanding One-to-Many Relationships A one-to-many relationship signifies that one entity instance can be associated with multiple instances of another entity. In our case: Post Entity : Represents a blog post with fields such as id , title , content , and a collection of comments . Comment Entity : Represents comments on posts, including fields like id , content , and a reference to the post it belongs to. Mapping with Spring Boot and PostgreSQL Let's examine how we define and manage this relationship in our Spring Boot application: Post Entity  @Entity @Getter @Setter @Builder @AllArgsConstructor @NoArgsCon...
