Getting all mapped Entities from EntityManager

I have a piece of maintenance code that should grant select privileges to a certain user at certain points of time:

grant select on A_DB.A_TABLE to READ_ONLY_USER;

I want to do this for all tables. I could use select * from tab in Oracle or show tables i开发者_运维问答n MySQL to get the complete list and then move on like that.

But since I already have the javax.persistence.EntityManager Object at hand, I wondered if there is another way to get at all the mapped Entities, the Manager knows about (I am using Hibernate under the hood).

As of 2016 (Hibernate 5.2), both getAllClassMetadata and Configuration are deprecated.

I guess this could be used instead:

Set<EntityType<?>> entities = sessionFactory.getMetamodel().getEntities();

In special, to get the classes:

List<?> classes = entities.stream()
                          .map(EntityType::getJavaType)
                          .filter(Objects::nonNull)
                          .collect(Collectors.toList());

There are two ways that I can see getting all of the mapped entities and their corresponding SQL tables (there may be others).

The most straightfoward is if you can use your Hibernate Configuration object:

    for(Iterator it = config.getClassMappings(); it.hasNext();){
        PersistentClass pc = (PersistentClass) it.next();
        System.out.println(pc.getEntityName() + "\t" + pc.getTable().getName());
    }

Alternatively, you can do a little more casting and get this same information out of the SessionFactory too:

    Map<String, ClassMetadata>  map = (Map<String, ClassMetadata>) sessionFactory.getAllClassMetadata();
    for(String entityName : map.keySet()){
        SessionFactoryImpl sfImpl = (SessionFactoryImpl) sessionFactory;
        String tableName = ((AbstractEntityPersister)sfImpl.getEntityPersister(entityName)).getTableName();
        System.out.println(entityName + "\t" + tableName);
    }

as MarcG answer states the getAllClassMetadata() is deprecated since few years ago

As of Hibernate - 5.4.30.Final - released March 19th, 2021 The code below works and is not deprecated :

MetamodelImplementor metaModelImpl = (MetamodelImplementor)session.getMetamodel();
Map<String, EntityPersister> entityPersisters = metaModelImpl.entityPersisters();
Collection<EntityPersister> val = entityPersisters.values();               

for (EntityPersister ep : val) {
        AbstractEntityPersister aep = (AbstractEntityPersister)ep;

        System.out.println(aep.getTableName());
        System.out.println(Arrays.toString(aep.getIdentifierColumnNames()));
        for (String propName : aep.getPropertyNames()) {
               System.out.println(propName);
               System.out.println(Arrays.toString(aep.getPropertyColumnNames(propName)));
        }
 }

Check what's available in this Map:

((Session) entityManager.getDelegate()).getSessionFactory().getAllClassMetadata() ;

If you have javax.persistence.EntityManager in hand., following method can help you get list all table names:

private List<String> getAllTables() {
    List<String> tableNames = new ArrayList<>();
    Session session = entityManager.unwrap(Session.class);
    SessionFactory sessionFactory = session.getSessionFactory();
    Map<String, ClassMetadata>  map = (Map<String, ClassMetadata>) sessionFactory.getAllClassMetadata();
    for(String entityName : map.keySet()){
        SessionFactoryImpl sfImpl = (SessionFactoryImpl) sessionFactory;
        String tableName = ((AbstractEntityPersister)sfImpl.getEntityPersister(entityName)).getTableName();
        tableNames.add(tableName);
    }
    return tableNames;
}
