My question is related to the following question Mapping postgreSQL JSON column to Hibernate value type and although the answer works when I test passing a string to psql in postgres it doesn’t work when passing a string from my Java code.
I am using MyBatis to map sql to the postgres database via Spring injection.
Here is my Java interface for MyBatis and the method I am having problems mapping to a Postgres JSON column is the updateState() method.
package receiver.spoke;
import java.util.List;
import org.apache.ibatis.annotations.Param;
import receiver.bean.Spoke;
public interface SpokeDAOMyBatis extends SpokeDAO {
void updateState(@Param("id") long spokeId, @Param("state") String state);
String getState(@Param("id") long spokeId);
List<Spoke> getSpokes();
// The close() method must exist.
void close();
}
Following is my mapper class:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE mapper PUBLIC "-//mybatis.org//DTD Mapper 3.0//EN" "http://mybatis.org/dtd/mybatis-3-mapper.dtd">
<mapper namespace="receiver.spoke.SpokeDAOMyBatis">
<update id="updateState">
UPDATE
spokes
SET
state = #{state}
WHERE
id = #{id}
</update>
<select id="getState" resultType="java.lang.String"
parameterType="long" useCache="false">
SELECT
state
FROM
spokes
WHERE
id = #{id}
</select>
<select id="getSpokes" resultMap="Spoke" useCache="false">
SELECT
id,
description,
uri,
updatets
FROM
spokes
</select>
<resultMap type="receiver.bean.Spoke" id="Spoke">
<id property="id" column="id"/>
<id property="description" column="description"/>
<id property="uri" column="uri"/>
<id property="updatets" column="updatets"/>
</resultMap>
</mapper>
Following is the Spoke bean class:
package receiver.bean;
import java.sql.Timestamp;
public class Spoke {
private long id;
private String description;
private String uri;
private Timestamp updatets;
// private String state;
public long getId() {
return this.id;
}
public void setId(long id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getDescription() {
return this.description;
}
public void setDescription(String description) {
this.description = description;
}
public String getUri() {
return this.uri;
}
public void setUri(String uri) {
this.uri = uri;
}
public Timestamp getUpdatets() {
return updatets;
}
public void setUpdatets(Timestamp updatets) {
this.updatets = updatets;
}
// public String getState() {
// return (String) state;
// }
// public void setState(String state) {
// this.state = state;
// }
@Override
public int hashCode() {
final int prime = 31;
int result = 1;
result = prime * result + ((this.description == null) ? 0 : this.description.hashCode());
result = prime * result + (int) (this.id ^ (this.id >>> 32));
result = prime * result + ((this.uri == null) ? 0 : this.uri.hashCode());
result = prime * result + ((this.updatets == null) ? 0 : this.updatets.hashCode());
return result;
}
@Override
public boolean equals(Object obj) {
if (this == obj)
return true;
if (obj == null)
return false;
if (getClass() != obj.getClass())
return false;
Spoke other = (Spoke) obj;
if (this.description == null) {
if (other.description != null)
return false;
} else if (!this.description.equals(other.description))
return false;
if (this.id != other.id)
return false;
if (this.uri == null) {
if (other.uri != null)
return false;
} else if (!this.uri.equals(other.uri))
return false;
if (this.updatets == null) {
if (other.updatets != null)
return false;
} else if (!this.updatets.equals(other.updatets))
return false;
return true;
}
@Override
public String toString() {
return "SpokeData [id=" + this.id + ", description=" + this.description + ", uri=" + this.uri + "]";
}
}
Following is the code for my applicationContext.xml file

Following is the db.properties file
test.db.url=jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/lunar test.db.username=lunar test.db.password=lunar
Following is the mybatis-config.xml file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE configuration PUBLIC "-//mybatis.org//DTD Config 3.0//EN" "http://mybatis.org/dtd/mybatis-3-config.dtd">

Here is the spokes table which contains the json field
CREATE TABLE spokes (
id BIGSERIAL NOT NULL,
insertts TIMESTAMPTZ NOT NULL,
updatets TIMESTAMPTZ NOT NULL,
rowversion BIGINT NOT NULL,
description TEXT NOT NULL,
uri TEXT NOT NULL,
state JSON
);
-- create primary key
ALTER TABLE spokes ADD CONSTRAINT pk_spokes PRIMARY KEY (id);
-- triggers
CREATE TRIGGER b_spokes_audit BEFORE INSERT OR UPDATE ON spokes FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE trigger_function_aud$
-- grants
GRANT ALL ON TABLE spokes TO lunar;
Next create function for string to json conversion
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION json_intext(text) RETURNS json AS $$ SELECT json_in($1::cstring); $$ LANGUAGE SQL IMMUTABLE; CREATE FUNCTION
Create cast
CREATE CAST (text AS json) WITH FUNCTION json_intext(text) AS IMPLICIT; CREATE CAST
This works when doing conversion from within my psql but not from the java side
Following are some tests showing the function and cast working via psql for a table called xxx and also the fact that invalid json is not accepted
PREPARE test(text) AS INSERT INTO xxx(id,state) VALUES (1,$1);
PREPARE
execute test('{}');
INSERT 0 1
select json_in('a');
ERROR: invalid input syntax for type json
DETAIL: Token "a" is invalid.
CONTEXT: JSON data, line 1: a
select json_in('a'::cstring);
ERROR: invalid input syntax for type json
DETAIL: Token "a" is invalid.
CONTEXT: JSON data, line 1: a
select json_in('{}');
json_in
---------
{}
(1 row)
select json_in('{');
ERROR: invalid input syntax for type json
DETAIL: The input string ended unexpectedly.
CONTEXT: JSON data, line 1: {
select json_in('{}');
json_in
---------
{}
(1 row)
Following is my test class:
package receiver.spoke;
import static org.junit.Assert.*;
import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.util.List;
import org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource;
import org.junit.Before;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Qualifier;
import org.springframework.test.context.ContextConfiguration;
import org.springframework.test.context.junit4.SpringJUnit4ClassRunner;
import receiver.bean.Spoke;
import receiver.spoke.SpokeDAOMyBatis;
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration(locations = { "/applicationContext.xml" })
public class SpokeDAOMyBatisTest {
@Autowired
@Qualifier("spokeDAOMyBatis")
private SpokeDAOMyBatis spokeDAOMyBatis;
@Autowired
@Qualifier("dataSource")
private BasicDataSource datasource;
@Before
public void connectionTest() throws SQLException {
datasource.getConnection();
}
@Test
public void updateState() {
assertNotNull(spokeDAOMyBatis);
spokeDAOMyBatis.updateState(1L, "{}");
assertTrue("Returned wrong state", spokeDAOMyBatis.getState(1L).equals("{}"));
}
@Test
public void getState() {
assertNotNull(spokeDAOMyBatis);
String str1 = spokeDAOMyBatis.getState(1L);
String str2 = spokeDAOMyBatis.getState(2L);
assertTrue("Returned wrong state", spokeDAOMyBatis.getState(1L).equals(str1));
assertTrue("Returned wrong state", spokeDAOMyBatis.getState(2L).equals(str2));
}
@Test
public void getAllSpokesTest() {
assertNotNull(spokeDAOMyBatis);
List<Spoke> list = spokeDAOMyBatis.getSpokes();
System.out.println(list.toString());
assertNotNull("List of spokes returned null", list);
assertTrue("List of spokes is empty", !list.isEmpty());
assertNotNull("Invalid spoke", list.get(0));
assertNotNull("id not loaded", list.get(0).getId());
assertNotNull("description not loaded", list.get(0).getDescription());
assertNotNull("uri not loaded", list.get(0).getUri());
assertNotNull("updatets not loaded", list.get(0).getUpdatets());
}
}
So it all seems to be working fine but when I try to run the Java side I get the cast exception as shown in the Stack trace below:

Answer
Adding stringtype=unspecified to my jdbc connection string as https://stackoverflow.com/users/1499698/pozs suggested worked:
jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/dbname?stringtype=unspecified
Doing this I could also remove the function and cast from a string to json.
I also tested the change by passing invalid json to the JSON column.
As hoped when doing so I got a DataIntegrityViolationException as I would expect from that test
