Query Creation
Generally, the query creation mechanism for JPA works as described in “Query methods”. The following example shows what a JPA query method translates into:
Example 57. Query creation from method names
1 | public interface UserRepository extends Repository<User, Long> { |
We create a query using the JPA criteria API from this, but, essentially, this translates into the following query: select u from User u where u.emailAddress = ?1 and u.lastname = ?2
. Spring Data JPA does a property check and traverses nested properties, as described in “Property Expressions”.

Limiting Query Results
The results of query methods can be limited by using the first
or top
keywords, which can be used interchangeably. An optional numeric value can be appended to top
or first
to specify the maximum result size to be returned. If the number is left out, a result size of 1 is assumed. The following example shows how to limit the query size:
Example 18. Limiting the result size of a query with Top
and First
1 | User findFirstByOrderByLastnameAsc(); |
