JPA (Hibernate) and custom table prefixes

Is it possible to override table names in JPA/Hibernate in order to add a common prefix for all project entities? For instance to be able to prefix all JBPM 5 tables by "JBPM5_" prefix.

Example for the accepted answer:

public class JBPM5NamingStrategy extends ImprovedNamingStrategy {
   public String classToTableName(String className) {
      retur开发者_Python百科n StringHelper.unqualify(className);
   }
   public String propertyToColumnName(String propertyName) {
      return propertyName;
   }
   public String tableName(String tableName) {
      return "JBPM5_" + tableName;
   }
   public String columnName(String columnName) {
      return columnName;
   }
   public String propertyToTableName(String className, String propertyName) {
      return "JBPM5_" + classToTableName(className) + '_'
         + propertyToColumnName(propertyName);
   }
}

One way to rename all tables at once, is to implement your own namingStrategy (implementation of org.hibernate.cfg.NamingStrategy).

The NamingStrategy used is specified within persistence.xml by

<property name="hibernate.ejb.naming_strategy"
          value="com.example.MyNamingStrategy" />

Use a NamingStrategy. This previous answer of mine should provide exactly what you need.

Copied from previous answer:

Here is a sample NamingStrategy that builds table names of the form TYPE1_TYPE2 for join tables and adds a common prefix to all tables:

public class CustomNamingStrategy extends ImprovedNamingStrategy {

    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
    private static final String PREFIX = "PFX_";

    @Override
    public String classToTableName(final String className) {
        return this.addPrefix(super.classToTableName(className));
    }

    @Override
    public String collectionTableName(final String ownerEntity,
            final String ownerEntityTable, final String associatedEntity,
            final String associatedEntityTable, final String propertyName) {
        return this.addPrefix(super.collectionTableName(ownerEntity,
                ownerEntityTable, associatedEntity, associatedEntityTable,
                propertyName));
    }

    @Override
    public String logicalCollectionTableName(final String tableName,
            final String ownerEntityTable, final String associatedEntityTable,
            final String propertyName) {
        return this.addPrefix(super.logicalCollectionTableName(tableName,
                ownerEntityTable, associatedEntityTable, propertyName));
    }

    private String addPrefix(final String composedTableName) {

        return PREFIX
                + composedTableName.toUpperCase().replace("_", "");

    }

}

In Hibernate 5 you still have to implement this behaviour by yourself. However there are now an implicit and a physical naming strategy.

This is an exemplary implementation to prefix table names with Hibernate 5:

package my.app;

import org.hibernate.boot.model.naming.Identifier;
import org.hibernate.boot.model.naming.PhysicalNamingStrategyStandardImpl;
import org.hibernate.engine.jdbc.env.spi.JdbcEnvironment;

public class PrefixPhysicalNamingStrategy extends PhysicalNamingStrategyStandardImpl {

    /**
     * TODO Make this an injectable application property
     */
    public static final String TABLE_NAME_PREFIX = "MY_PREFIX_";

    @Override
    public Identifier toPhysicalTableName(Identifier name, JdbcEnvironment context) {
        Identifier newIdentifier = new Identifier(TABLE_NAME_PREFIX + name.getText(), name.isQuoted());
        return super.toPhysicalTableName(newIdentifier, context);
    }
}

Use this configuration property for Spring Boot 2 to activate your physical naming strategy:

spring.jpa.hibernate.naming.physical-strategy: my.app.PrefixPhysicalNamingStrategy
