Java inheritance into PostgreSQL JSONB mapping

The demo project with mapping of Java objects inheritance into PostgreSQL JSONB columns via Jackson and MyBatis.

Development

To build & test:

$ ./gradlew build test

Running on localhost

To run application on localhost:

$ ./gradlew bootRun

Required PostgreSQL running on port 5432 with database schema. It can be done with Docker container:

$ docker run \
    --name postgres \
    -e POSTGRES_DB="postgres" \
    -e POSTGRES_USER="postgres" \
    -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD="postgres" \
    -v postgres_data:/var/lib/postgresql \
    -v ${PWD}/src/main/resources/sql/init.sql:/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/1.init.sql \
    -v ${PWD}/src/main/resources/sql/data.sql:/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/2.data.sql \
    -p 5432:5432 \
    -d postgres:latest

Running in Docker (the easiest start)

To package the application into jar file:

$ ./gradlew bootJar

To build the application docker image:

$ docker-compose build

To run in Docker with PostgreSQL database:

$ docker-compose up -d

To stop the application and PostgreSQL database:

$ docker-compose down --volumes
