Entity Fields & CollectionNames

Generates enums for raw field names and collections that preserve the raw field names in Mongo entities.

Entity identification

The default webfluxDocumentName is org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.mapping.Document from Spring Data MongoDB. It processes classes with that annotation under the entityPackage.

Creation example

MemberEntityFields.java

java

Exploring raw field names

The Java field name is the default, and it reads the value or name of Spring Data @Field, relational/JPA @Column, and Jackson @JsonProperty as strings. Java keywords, names starting with numbers, and special characters are converted to safe enum identifiers while keeping the rawName.

source of truth is the entity

The generated enum can be overwritten when the source changes. Do not add separate constants or business methods to the generated enum.
