Persisting a list of entities using jpa endpoint

[mohithanda]

Hi Guys,

I am trying to persist a list of entities using a camel route.

So some thing like

exchange.getIn().setBody(BeanToEntityConverter.convertPlanToPlanEntity(plans)); // BeanToEntityConverter.convertPlanToPlanEntity(plans) returns a list of PlanEntity

And following is my route endpoint

.to("jpa:org.myproject.servicebus.services.PlanEntity");

I get the following exception in my logs

at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:662)

Caused by: org.apache.camel.NoTypeConversionAvailableException: No type converter available to convert from type: java.util.ArrayList to the required type: org.myproject.servicebus.services.PlanEntity with value [org.myproject.servicebus.services.PlanEntity@3346e3, org.myproject.servicebus.services.PlanEntity@72e235, org.myproject.servicebus.services.PlanEntity@61414d, org.myproject.servicebus.services.PlanEntity@10637dd, org.myproject.servicebus.services.PlanEntity@13d9e14, org.myproject.servicebus.services.PlanEntity@555cb7]

Which actually makes sense to me. But I am really not sure how I could define a jpa endpoint that can persist a list of entities. If I set the exchange body to be a single object i.e. a PlanEntity Object, it works fine.

Any suggestions? Please advise.

Regards,

Mohit

You can split the message, and have each splitted message (which would be a single entity) send to the JPA endpoint.

Thanks Claus.

That's what I did. It works well.
