'%Like% Query in spring JpaRepository

I would like to write a like query in JpaRepository but it is not returning anything :

LIKE '%place%'-its not working.

LIKE 'place' works perfectly.

Here is my code :

@Repository("registerUserRepository")
public interface RegisterUserRepository extendsJpaRepository<Registration,Long> {

    @Query("Select c from Registration c where c.place like :place")
     List<Registration> findByPlaceContaining(@Param("place")String place);
}

You dont actually need the @Query annotation at all.

You can just use the following

    @Repository("registerUserRepository")
    public interface RegisterUserRepository extends JpaRepository<Registration,Long>{
    
    List<Registration> findByPlaceIgnoreCaseContaining(String place);

    }

For your case, you can directly use JPA methods. That code is like bellow :

Containing: select ... like %:place%

List<Registration> findByPlaceContainingIgnoreCase(String place);

here, IgnoreCase will help you to search item with ignoring the case.

Using @Query in JPQL :

@Query("Select registration from Registration registration where 
registration.place LIKE  %?1%")
List<Registration> findByPlaceContainingIgnoreCase(String place);

Here are some related methods:

  1. Like findByPlaceLike

    … where x.place like ?1

  2. StartingWith findByPlaceStartingWith

    … where x.place like ?1 (parameter bound with appended %)

  3. EndingWith findByPlaceEndingWith

    … where x.place like ?1 (parameter bound with prepended %)

  4. Containing findByPlaceContaining

    … where x.place like ?1 (parameter bound wrapped in %)

Hope this will help you :)

You can also implement the like queries using Spring Data JPA supported keyword "Containing".

List<Registration> findByPlaceContaining(String place);

Solution 4:[4]

Try this.

@Query("Select c from Registration c where c.place like '%'||:place||'%'")

Solution 5:[5]

You can have one alternative of using placeholders as:

@Query("Select c from Registration c where c.place LIKE  %?1%")
List<Registration> findPlaceContainingKeywordAnywhere(String place);

Solution 6:[6]

when call funtion, I use: findByPlaceContaining("%" + place);

or: findByPlaceContaining(place + "%");

or: findByPlaceContaining("%" + place + "%");

Solution 7:[7]

I use this:

@Query("Select c from Registration c where lower(c.place) like lower(concat('%', concat(:place, '%')))")

lower() is like toLowerCase in String, so the result isn't case sensitive.

Solution 8:[8]

answer exactly will be

-->` @Query("select u from Category u where u.categoryName like %:input%")
     List findAllByInput(@Param("input") String input);

Solution 9:[9]

We can use native query

@Query(nativeQuery = true, value ="Select * from Registration as c where c.place like %:place%")

List<Registration> findByPlaceContaining(@Param("place")String place);

Solution 10:[10]

Found solution without @Query (actually I tried which one which is "accepted". However, it didn't work).

Have to return Page<Entity> instead of List<Entity>:

public interface EmployeeRepository 
                          extends PagingAndSortingRepository<Employee, Integer> {
    Page<Employee> findAllByNameIgnoreCaseStartsWith(String name, Pageable pageable);
}

IgnoreCase part was critical for achieving this!

Solution 11:[11]

You can just simply say 'Like' keyword after parameters..

List<Employee> findAllByNameLike(String name);

Solution 12:[12]

Us like this

@Query("from CasFhgDeviceView where deviceGroupName like concat(concat('%CSGW%', :usid), '%') ")

Solution 13:[13]

There can be various approaches. As mentioned in answer of many, if possible you can use JPA predefined template query.

List<Registration> findByPlaceContainingIgnoreCase(String place);

Also, you can append '%' in java layer before calling the above method.

If complex query, then you can normally use @Query one

@Query("Select r from Registration r where r.place like '%' || :place || '%'")

For readability, you can use below one

@Query("Select r from Registration r where r.place like CONCAT('%', :place, '%'")
