Offset Pagination - Trigger SELECT COUNT Subquery And Return Page<entity> Via Extra Column

Description: This application fetches data as Page<entity> via Spring Boot offset pagination. Use this only if the fetched data will be modified. Otherwise, fetch Page<dto> as here. The SELECT COUNT triggered for counting the total number of records is a subquery of the main SELECT. Therefore, there will be a single database roundtrip instead of two (typically, there is one query needed for fetching the data and one for counting the total number of records).

Key points:

  • write a repository that extends PagingAndSortingRepository
  • in the entity, add an extra column for representing the total number of records and annotate it as @Column(insertable = false, updatable = false)
  • fetch data via a native query (that includes counting) into a List<entity>
  • use the fetched List<entity> and Pageable to create a Page<entity>
