liferay-maven-plugin doesn't create finder functions in local service layer

[Ralf Haller, modificado hace 6 años.]

Hi,

I want to create a service builder project with Maven using liferay-maven plugin for Liferay 6.2.5. For setting up the project I am using the Maven archetype "liferay-servicebuilder-archetype" in version 6.2.5. When running mvn liferay:build-service everything seems to build fine. However no finder is created in the local service layer.

Here's what I have:

service.xml containing a finder "Field2:

<service-builder package-path="test">
	<namespace>service</namespace>
	<entity name="Foo" uuid="true" local-service="true" remote-service="true">

		<!-- PK fields -->

		<column name="fooId" type="long" primary="true" />

		<!-- Group instance -->

		<column name="groupId" type="long" />

		<!-- Audit fields -->

		<column name="companyId" type="long" />
		<column name="userId" type="long" />
		<column name="userName" type="String" />
		<column name="createDate" type="Date" />
		<column name="modifiedDate" type="Date" />

		<!-- Other fields -->

		<column name="field1" type="String" />
		<column name="field2" type="boolean" />
		<column name="field3" type="int" />
		<column name="field4" type="Date" />
		<column name="field5" type="String" />

		<!-- Order -->

		<order by="asc">
			<order-column name="field1" />
		</order>

		<!-- Finder methods -->

		<finder name="Field2" return-type="Collection">
			<finder-column name="field2" />
		</finder>

		<!-- References -->

		<reference package-path="com.liferay.portlet.asset" entity="AssetEntry" />
		<reference package-path="com.liferay.portlet.asset" entity="AssetTag" />
	</entity>
</service-builder>

As you can see no getFoosByField2 is created here. Why is that? What am I missing?

I'm not sure what the driver for the change was, but basically finders are not exposed by default. And generally I guess I can understand why...

I mean, conceptually you can deem the finders as "internals" for the database access and therefore should not be exposed by default as part of the API, forcing you to expose finders as necessary.

On the other hand, as a lazy developer I miss having that exposed for me because now I have to add all of those bridge functions

The good news is that they are easy to add. Just put the bridge method in the FooLocalServiceImpl guy to invoke the fooPersistence.getFoosByField2() method. ServiceBuilder will inject the persistence layer into your instance, so you can avoid all of the static util classes.
