Group by month with criteria in Hibernate

Question

I\'m trying to get a report using Criteria and ProjectionList, and I\'m pretty new using this through hibernate. So I have this model:

private Long _userId;         


        

Answer 1

I found the answer, and its pretty simple. I changed the "groupProperty" in the ProjectionList criteria for this:

projectionList.add(Projections.sqlGroupProjection(
    "month({alias}.DATE) as month, year({alias}.DATE) as year", 
    "month({alias}.DATE), year({alias}.DATE)", 
    new String[]{"month","year"}, 
    new Type[] {Hibernate.DOUBLE}));

Okay. I'll explain the sqlGroupProjection. The first argument is the part of the query after of the "select", for example:

Select [firstPartOfSqlGroupProjection] * boo;

The "{alias}" is the alias that hibernates use in the query to refer to a table.

The second argument of the sqlGroupProjection function is the group by criteria, the third argument is the column names that you'll get from the group by and finally, the type of data you'll use.

You can use an SQLQuery in hibernate, here is an example:

 public List<MonthlyPoint> groupByMonth(ChartRequest request){

   SQLQuery query = getSession().createSQLQuery("SELECT \n" +
        "sum(this_.amount) as amount, \n" +
        "extract(month from this_.fecha) as month, \n" +
        "extract(year from this_.fecha) as  year\n" +
        "FROM jornada this_ \n" +
        "GROUP BY \n" +
        "month, \n" +
        "year \n" +
        "ORDER BY \n" +
        "year asc, \n" +
        "month asc");

      query.setResultTransformer(Transformers.aliasToBean(MonthlyPoint.class));
      return query.list();
}


public class MonthlyPoint {
    private Double year;
    private Double month;
    private Double amount;
  //-- getters and setters here --
}
