org.springframework.dao.InvalidDataAccessApiUsageException: Required property docTypeVersion not found for class java.util.Optional

Question

When i try to select some part of couchbase document using a dto class,getting this error. I tried several possible solutions like changing return type of query method Optional<ResponseDto> and getting from Optional class but did not fixed.I dont understand why it look for 'docTypeVersion' in Optional class.I did not try to get docTypeVersion from Optional class.

org.springframework.dao.InvalidDataAccessApiUsageException: Required property docTypeVersion not found for class java.util.Optional; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalStateException: Required property docTypeVersion not found for class java.util.Optional 

Repository class:

@Repository
@Scope("efatura_islem")
@Collection("gib_thread_process_non_verified")
public interface ThreadProcessCouchbaseRepository extends CouchbaseRepository<ThreadProcessCouchbaseEntity, String> {

    @Query("SELECT meta(gtp).id AS __id , gtp.doc_type_version FROM gib_thread_process_non_verified AS gtp WHERE gtp.zip_path=$documentInstanceIdentifier")
    ResponseDto selectApplicationResponseInfo(String documentInstanceIdentifier);
}

DTO class:

@Data
@Document
public class ResponseDto implements Serializable {
   
    @Field("doc_type_version")
    private String docTypeVersion;
}

Document is below that:

{
  "_class": "tr.gov.gib.efatura.core.entity.couchbase.ThreadProcessCouchbaseEntity",
  "calc_hash": "6DB58D42B042F975A7E68464C8E18FE5",

I had the same problem as you and making the return type optional did not work for me. Making it List works, however when you know that you are selecting a unique document, you dont want to retrieve in a list. You are using the entity class in your repo and trying to retrieve it as a dto. One solution is, make repo use your dto class. Modify it like this:

@Repository
@Scope("efatura_islem")
@Collection("gib_thread_process_non_verified")
public interface ThreadProcessCouchbaseRepository extends CouchbaseRepository< ResponseDto, String> {

    @Query("SELECT meta(gtp).id AS __id , gtp.doc_type_version FROM gib_thread_process_non_verified AS gtp WHERE gtp.zip_path=$documentInstanceIdentifier")
    ResponseDto selectApplicationResponseInfo(String documentInstanceIdentifier);
}

If you dont want to modify your repo, or write a seperate one for the dto, you should make your dto extend the entity class like this:

@Data
@Document
public class ResponseDto extends ThreadProcessCouchbaseEntity {...}

Then you will not need to use Optional or List. It worked for me, i hope this works for you too.
