MyBatipse : Eclipse plugin for MyBatis

MyBatis is a popular SQL Mapper framework.
And MyBatipse is an Eclipse plug-in which provids content assists and validations when editing MyBatis related files.

Features

XML Editor Enhancements

Auto-completion

  • Mapper namespace : Calculated from the path.
    autocomplete namespaceautocomplete namespace

  • Java class/Type alias : Propose Java classes and Type Aliases (translucent icons). Camelcase match is supported. [1] [2]
    autocomplete class autocomplete class

  • Java property : Propose properties of the parent java class. Nested properties are supported.
    autocomplete property autocomplete property

  • Statement ID : If corresponding mapper interface exists, propose the method name as a statement ID.
    autocomplete statement id

  • Reference to resultMap/select/sql : Propose ID of the referenced resultMap/select/sql. External reference is supported (blue icons).
    autocomplete reference

  • Parameter properties : #{} and ${} in select/insert/udpate/delte statements. Also works in some attributes.
    autocomplete properties autocomplete properties 2

  • javaType, jdbcType, typeHandler in #{}
    autocomplete jdbcType

  • Result elements in resultMap/collection/association : Generates elements for the parent java class properties.
    autocomplete results

  • setting name and value in XML config.
    autocomplete setting autocomplete setting

  • [1] For better performance, classes in the application libraries (loaded as JARs) are listed only when at least one package segment is specified.

  • [2] There is a limitation for the type alias support. Basically, if type aliases are registered using Java API, they are not automatically detected. As a workaround, you can register type aliases in MyBatipse's preference. See the Configuration section.

Hyperlinks

  • To referenced resultMap/select/sql element. External reference is supported.
    link to external reference
  • From Java mapper interface to XML mapper element.
    link to xml mapper
  • From Java mapper method to XML mapper element.
    link to xml statement
  • From XML statement id to Java mapper method.
    link to java method
  • Result map id or select statement id specified in Java annotation.

Validation

  • Missing TypeAlias, Java class/property.
  • Missing resultMap/select/sql ID.
  • etc.

Mapper Declaration View

Java Editor Enhancements

Auto-completion

  • Parameter properties : #{} and ${} in select/insert/udpate/delte annotations. autocomplete properties in java
  • Return type properties in @Result
    autocomplete return type properties in java
  • keyProperty in @Options and @SelectKey
    autocomplete return type properties in java
    autocomplete return type properties in java
  • javaType, jdbcType, typeHandler in #{} : See the XML example.
  • Reference to resultMap in @ResultMap and resultMap attribute of @Arg
    autocomplete resultmap annotation
  • select attribute of @Arg, @Many and @One
    autocomplete select

Quick Assist

Put the cursor on the statement method name and press cmd + 1 (or ctrl + 1) to trigger Quick Assist.

  • You can add @Param to method parameters.
    param-annotation1
    param-annotation2
  • You can copy annotation statement into the clipboard. param-annotation1
  • You can move annotation statement to XML mapper.
    move-statement
  • You can move @Results annotation to <resultMap /> in XML mapper.
    move-resultmap

Validation

  • @ResultMap : invalid resultMap ID.
  • select attribute of @One or @Many : invalid statement ID.

Rename Refactoring

  • Renaming resultMap/statement/sql ID updates its references in Java and XML mappers.
  • In XML mapper, right click -> Refactor -> Rename MyBatis element. param-annotation1
  • In Java mapper, right click -> MyBatis Refactor -> Rename MyBatis element. param-annotation1
  • Renaming a Java mapper method also updates its references.

Miscellaneous

  • Wizard to create a new XML mapper file.
    wizard-xml-mapper

  • Smart-copy menu in Console View to copy SQL statement in an executable form. For example, if you select and copy the following debug output ...
    smart-copy-console
    ... and the following statement is copied to the clipboard (be sure to include the first ==> and <== in the selection as the image above).

    insert into users values(2, 'User2')

Configuration

XML mapper location

  • MyBatipse searches XML mapper files under your project's Source Folder. To make a directory Source Folder, right click the directory in the package explorer and choose Build Path -> Use as Source Folder from the menu.

MyBatis Nature

  • By default, each file is validated when it's saved, but you would want to validate the XML mapper when the related Java classes are updated as well. For that purpose, MyBatipse provides a custom nature MyBatis Nature.
    To add the nature, right click the project in the package explorer and choose Configure -> Add MyBatis Nature from the menu.

Annotation Processing

  • To validate annotation value, you need to enable annotation processing. Open Project -> Properties and select Java Compiler -> Annotation Processing in the left column. Check both Enable annotation processing and Enable processing in editor.

Type Alias

  • Type alias are automatically detected if they are registered using XML config file (both mybatis and mybatis-spring config is supported).
    If you register type aliases in Java code, MyBatipse cannot detect them. As a workaround, you can register custom type aliases in the project setting (Open Project -> Properties menu and select MyBatipse from the left column).
    type aliases
    For example, with the above settings:
    • The first entry registers all the classes in com.example.domain package as type aliases. You can use wildcard to specify multiple packages (e.g. com.example.*.domain).
    • The second entry registers the single class domain.Person.
    • The third entry registers the single class domain.SomeLongNamedBean under the alias SomeBean.
    • Note that, in any case, MyBatipse respects @Alias annotation if it exists.

Java 8 -parameters compiler option support

  • If 'Store information about method parameters' option is enabled in the Java Compiler -> Classfile Generation setting, MyBatipse proposes the declared method parameter names.

Tips

  • To move MyBatis proposals to the top of the XML proposal list, quit Eclipse and open the following file in the workspace: .metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.runtime/.settings/org.eclipse.wst.xml.ui.prefs Find the line started with xml_content_assist_default_page_sort_order= and insert net.harawata.mybatis.proposalCategory.xml\u0000 right after the equal sign.
