4.8.2.1. Predefined JPQL queries configuration

In the CUBA application, predefined JPQL queries must be specified in files registered in the cuba.rest.queriesConfig application property of the web or portal module (e.g in the web-app.properties file):

cuba.rest.queriesConfig = +com/company/myapp/rest-queries.xml

The rest-queries.xml file must be placed to the root package of the web or portal module (e.g. com.company.myapp). Its content is defined by the rest-queries.xsd schema, for example:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<queries xmlns="http://schemas.haulmont.com/cuba/rest-queries.xsd">
    <query name="carByVin" entity="ref$Car" view="carEdit">
        <jpql><![CDATA[select c from ref$Car c where c.vin = :vin]]></jpql>
        <params>
            <param name="vin" type="java.lang.String"/>
        </params>
    </query>
    <query name="allColours" entity="ref$Colour" view="_local">
        <jpql><![CDATA[select u from ref$Colour u order by u.name]]></jpql>
    </query>
</queries>

An example of how to configure and execute a query can be found in the Executing a JPQL Query chapter.
