Spring Data JPA MongoDB Expressions

How it works:

1. Customize JPA Repository base class: java @SpringBootApplication @EnableJpaRepositories(repositoryBaseClass = ExpressionsRepositoryImpl.class) public class Application { … }
2. Change your repository to extends ExpressionsRepository: java @Repository public interface EmployeeRepository extends ExpressionsRepository<Employee, Long> { }

3. Build the controller/service:

   @PostMapping("/search")
   public ResponseEntity<Page<EmployeeDto>> search(@RequestBody Expressions expressions, Pageable pageable) {
   
   return ok().body(
               employeeRepository.findAll(expressions, pageable).map(employeeMapper::toDto)
       );
   }
   

4. Send Mongodb query in JSON from frontend:
