MapStruct - Quick Guide



MapStruct - Overview

MapStruct is an annotation processor which is plugged into Java Compiler. Once plugged in, it can be used by command line tools like maven, gradle to process the mapping annotation to create a mapper class at compile time.

When Mapping is required?

In multilayered applications, data objects are used to fetch data from database and UI interacts with Models. Now data fetched into data models is required to map to Model or java beans to be passed to UI.Consider the following case.

Entity class connected with database.

StudentEntity.java

@Entity
class StudentEntity {
   String id;
   String name;
}

Model class connected with UI.

Student.java

class Student {
   String id;
   String name;
}

How MapStruct Works?

MapStruct automates the process of creating a mapper to map data objects with model objects using annotations. It creates a mapper implementation at compile time which helps developer to figure out error during development and make is easy to understand. For example −

StudentMapper.java

@Mapper
class StudentMapper {
   StudentMapper INSTANCE = Mappers.getMapper( StudentMapper.class );   
   StudentEntity modelToEntity(Student student);
}

Now StudentMapper.INSTANCE can be used to get mapped objects easily.

StudentEntity studentEntity = StudentMapper.INSTANCE.modelToEntity(student);

MapStruct - Environment Setup

MapStruct is a Java based library, so the very first requirement is to have JDK installed on your machine.

Step 1 - Setup Java Development Kit (JDK)

You can download the latest version of SDK from Oracle's Java site − Java SE Downloads. You will find instructions for installing JDK in downloaded files, follow the given instructions to install and configure the setup. Finally set PATH and JAVA_HOME environment variables to refer to the directory that contains java and javac, typically java_install_dir/bin and java_install_dir respectively.

If you are running Windows and have installed the JDK in C:\jdk-9.0.1, you would have to put the following line in your C:\autoexec.bat file.

set PATH=C:\jdk-11.0.11\bin;%PATH% 
set JAVA_HOME=C:\jdk-11.0.11

Alternatively, on Windows NT/2000/XP, you will have to right-click on My Computer, select Properties → Advanced → Environment Variables. Then, you will have to update the PATH value and click the OK button.

On Unix (Solaris, Linux, etc.), if the SDK is installed in /usr/local/jdk-9.0.1 and you use the C shell, you will have to put the following into your .cshrc file.

setenv PATH /usr/local/jdk-11.0.11/bin:$PATH 
setenv JAVA_HOME /usr/local/jdk-11.0.11

Alternatively, if you use an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) like Borland JBuilder, Eclipse, IntelliJ IDEA, or Sun ONE Studio, you will have to compile and run a simple program to confirm that the IDE knows where you have installed Java. Otherwise, you will have to carry out a proper setup as given in the document of the IDE.

Step 2 - Install mapstruct library along with dependencies

Download following jars from MVNRepository and use them in your classpath.

  • mapstruct-1.5.0.Beta1.jar

  • mapstruct-processor-1.5.0.Beta1.jar

Make sure you set your CLASSPATH variable on this directory properly otherwise you will face a problem while running your application.

Step 3 - Setup Eclipse IDE

All the examples in this tutorial have been written using Eclipse IDE. So we would suggest you should have the latest version of Eclipse installed on your machine.

To install Eclipse IDE, download the latest Eclipse binaries from www.eclipse.org/downloads. Once you download the installation, unpack the binary distribution into a convenient location. For example, in C:\eclipse on Windows, or /usr/local/eclipse on Linux/Unix and finally set PATH variable appropriately.

Eclipse can be started by executing the following commands on Windows machine, or you can simply double-click on eclipse.exe

%C:\eclipse\eclipse.exe 

Eclipse can be started by executing the following commands on Unix (Solaris, Linux, etc.) machine −

$/usr/local/eclipse/eclipse

After a successful startup, if everything is fine then it should display the following result −

Eclipse Home page

Step 4 - Create a Maven Project

C:\MVN>mvn archetype:generate
-DgroupId = com.tutorialspoint.mapping 
-DartifactId = mapping 
-DarchetypeArtifactId = maven-archetype-quickstart 
-DinteractiveMode = false

It will create a maven project. Now update the pom.xml file as follows −

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
   xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd">
   <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
   <groupId>com.tutorialspoint.mapping</groupId>
   <artifactId>mapping</artifactId>
   <packaging>jar</packaging>
   <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
   <name>mapping</name>
   <url>http://maven.apache.org</url>
   <dependencies>
      <dependency>
         <groupId>org.junit.jupiter</groupId>
         <artifactId>junit-jupiter-engine</artifactId>

         <scope>test</scope>
      </dependency>
      <dependency>
         <groupId>org.mapstruct</groupId>
         <artifactId>mapstruct</artifactId>
         <version>1.5.0.Beta1</version>
      </dependency>
   </dependencies>
   <build>
      <plugins>
         <plugin>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>3.8.1</version>
            <configuration>
               <source>11</source> 
               <target>11</target> 
               <annotationProcessorPaths>
                  <path>
                     <groupId>org.mapstruct</groupId>
                     <artifactId>mapstruct-processor</artifactId>
                     <version>1.5.0.Beta1</version>
                  </path>
               </annotationProcessorPaths>
            </configuration>
         </plugin>
      </plugins>
   </build>
</project>

Run the following command to update maven dependencies and build project.

mvn package

Once command is successful. Import the maven based project in Eclipse as a maven project. Rest Eclipse will handle.

MapStruct - Basic Mapping

Using mapstruct is very easy. To create a mapper use org.mapstruct.Mapper annotation on an interface.

@Mapper
public interface StudentMapper {...}

Now create a conversion method in interface.

@Mapper
public interface StudentMapper {
   Student getModelFromEntity(StudentEntity student);
}

In case both source and target object properties have same name, those properties will be mapped automatically. In case property name is different, use the @Mapping annotation as following −

@Mapper
public interface StudentMapper {
   @Mapping(target="className", source="classVal")
   Student getModelFromEntity(StudentEntity student);
}

Here className is the property name in Student, a target object and classVal is the property name in StudentEntity, a source object.

Example

Open project mapping as created in Environment Setup chapter in Eclipse.

Create Student.java with following code −

Student.java

package com.tutorialspoint.model;

public class Student {
   private int id;
   private String name;
   private String className;

   public int getId() {
      return id;
   }
   public void setId(int id) {
      this.id = id;
   }
   public String getName() {
      return name;
   }
   public void setName(String name) {
      this.name = name;
   }
   public String getClassName() {
      return className;
   }
   public void setClassName(String className) {
      this.className = className;
   }
}

Create Student.java with following code −

StudentEntity.java

package com.tutorialspoint.entity;

public class StudentEntity {
   private int id;
   private String name;
   private String classVal;
   public int getId() {
      return id;
   }
   public void setId(int id) {
      this.id = id;
   }
   public String getName() {
      return name;
   }
   public void setName(String name) {
      this.name = name;
   }
   public String getClassVal() {
      return classVal;
   }
   public void setClassVal(String classVal) {
      this.classVal = classVal;
   }
}

Create StudentMapper.java with following code −

StudentMapper.java

package com.tutorialspoint.mapper;

import org.mapstruct.Mapper;
import org.mapstruct.Mapping;

import com.tutorialspoint.entity.StudentEntity;
import com.tutorialspoint.model.Student;

@Mapper
public interface StudentMapper {

   @Mapping(target="className", source="classVal")
   Student getModelFromEntity(StudentEntity student);

   @Mapping(target="classVal", source="className")
   StudentEntity getEntityFromModel(Student student);
}

Create StudentMapperTest.java with following code −

StudentMapperTest.java

package com.tutorialspoint.mapping;

import static org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions.assertEquals;

import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import org.mapstruct.factory.Mappers;

import com.tutorialspoint.entity.StudentEntity;
import com.tutorialspoint.mapper.StudentMapper;
import com.tutorialspoint.model.Student;

public class StudentMapperTest {

   private StudentMapper studentMapper
      = Mappers.getMapper(StudentMapper.class);

   @Test
   public void testEntityToModel() {
      StudentEntity entity = new StudentEntity();
      entity.setClassVal("X");
      entity.setName("John");
      entity.setId(1);

      Student model = studentMapper.getModelFromEntity(entity);

      assertEquals(entity.getClassVal(), model.getClassName());
      assertEquals(entity.getName(), model.getName());
      assertEquals(entity.getId(), model.getId());
   }

   @Test
   public void testModelToEntity() {
      Student model = new Student();
      model.setId(1);
      model.setName("John");
      model.setClassName("X");

      StudentEntity entity = studentMapper.getEntityFromModel(model);

      assertEquals(entity.getClassVal(), model.getClassName());
      assertEquals(entity.getName(), model.getName());
      assertEquals(entity.getId(), model.getId());
   }
}

Run the follwing command to test the mappings.

mvn clean test

Once command is successful. Verify the output.

mvn clean test

MapStruct - Custom Mapping

We can add custom methods as well to the Mapper created using org.mapstruct.Mapper annotation. We can create abstract class as well intead of an Interface. Mapstruct automatically creates the corresponding mapper class.

Now create a default conversion method in interface.

@Mapper
public interface StudentMapper {
   default Student getModelFromEntity(StudentEntity studentEntity){
      Student student = new Student();
      student.setId(studentEntity.getId());
      student.setName(studentEntity.getName());
      student.setClassName(studentEntity.getClassVal());
      return student;
   }
}

In similar fashion, we can create an abstract class as well as a mapper.

@Mapper
public absgract class StudentMapper {
   Student getModelFromEntity(StudentEntity studentEntity){
      Student student = new Student();
      student.setId(studentEntity.getId());
      student.setName(studentEntity.getName());
      student.setClassName(studentEntity.getClassVal());
      return student;
   }
}

Example

Open project mediaPlayer as created in Environment Setup chapter in Eclipse.

Create Student.java with following code −

Student.java

package com.tutorialspoint.model;

public class Student {
   private int id;
   private String name;
   private String className;

   public int getId() {
      return id;
   }
   public void setId(int id) {
      this.id = id;
   }
   public String getName() {
      return name;
   }
   public void setName(String name) {
      this.name = name;
   }

   }
   public void setId(int id) {
      this.id = id;
   }
   public String getName() {
      return name;
   }
   public void setName(String name) {
      this.name = name;
   }
   public String getClassVal() {
      return classVal;

MapStruct - Mapping Multiple Objects

We can add map multiple objects as well. For Example, we want to get a DeliveryAddress Object using Student and Address object.

Now create a mapper interface which can map two objects into one.

@Mapper
public interface DeliveryAddressMapper {
   @Mapping(source = "student.name", target = "name")
   @Mapping(source = "address.houseNo", target = "houseNumber")
   DeliveryAddress getDeliveryAddress(StudentEntity student, AddressEntity address);   
}

Example

Open project mapping as updated in Custom Mapping chapter in Eclipse.

Create DeliveryAddress.java with following code −

DeliveryAddress.java

package com.tutorialspoint.model;

public class DeliveryAddress {	
	private String name;
	private int houseNumber;
	private String city;
	private String state;
	public String getName() {
		return name;
	}
	public void setName(String name) {
		this.name = name;
	}
	public int getHouseNumber() {
		return houseNumber;
	}
	public void setHouseNumber(int houseNumber) {
		this.houseNumber = houseNumber;
	}
	public String getCity() {
		return city;
	}
	public void setCity(String city) {
		this.city = city;
	}
	public String getState() {
		return state;
	}
	public void setState(String state) {
		this.state = state;
	}
}

Create AddressEntity.java with following code −

AddressEntity.java

package com.tutorialspoint.entity;

public class AddressEntity {
	private int houseNo;
	private String city;
	private String state;
	public int getHouseNo() {
		return houseNo;
	}
	public void setHouseNo(int houseNo) {
		this.houseNo = houseNo;
	}
	public String getCity() {
		return city;
	}
	public void setCity(String city) {
		this.city = city;
	}
	public String getState() {
		return state;
	}
	public void setState(String state) {
		this.state = state;
	}
}

Create DeliveryAddressMapper.java with following code −

DeliveryAddressMapper.java

package com.tutorialspoint.mapper;

import org.mapstruct.Mapper;
import org.mapstruct.Mapping;

import com.tutorialspoint.entity.AddressEntity;
import com.tutorialspoint.entity.StudentEntity;
import com.tutorialspoint.model.DeliveryAddress;

@Mapper
public interface DeliveryAddressMapper {
   @Mapping(source = "student.name", target = "name")
   @Mapping(source = "address.houseNo", target = "houseNumber")
   DeliveryAddress getDeliveryAddress(StudentEntity student, AddressEntity address);   
}

public class DeliveryAddressMapperTest {

   private DeliveryAddressMapper deliveryAddressMapper
      = Mappers.getMapper(DeliveryAddressMapper.class);

   @Test
   public void testEntityToModel() {
      StudentEntity student = new StudentEntity();
      student.setClassVal("X");
      student.setName("John");
      student.setId(1);

      AddressEntity address = new AddressEntity();
      address.setCity("Y");
      address.setState("Z");
      address.setHouseNo(1);

      DeliveryAddress deliveryAddress = deliveryAddressMapper.getDeliveryAddress(student, address);

      assertEquals(deliveryAddress.getName(), student.getName());
      assertEquals(deliveryAddress.getCity(), address.getCity());
      assertEquals(deliveryAddress.getState(), address.getState());
      assertEquals(deliveryAddress.getHouseNumber(), address.getHouseNo());

MapStruct - Mapping Nested Bean

MapStruct handles nested mapping seemlessly. For example, a Student with Subject as nested bean.

Now create a mapper interface which can map nested objects.

@Mapper
public interface StudentMapper {
   @Mapping(target="className", source="classVal")
   @Mapping(target="subject", source="subject.name")
   Student getModelFromEntity(StudentEntity studentEntity);
	
   @Mapping(target="classVal", source="className")
   @Mapping(target="subject.name", source="subject")
   StudentEntity getEntityFromModel(Student student);
}

Example

Open project mapping as updated in Mapping Multiple Objects chapter in Eclipse.

Create SubjectEntity.java with following code −

SubjectEntity.java

package com.tutorialspoint.entity;

public class SubjectEntity {
   private String name;
   public String getName() {
      return name;
   }

   public void setName(String name) {
      this.name = name;
   }	
}

Update StudentEntity.java with following code −

StudentEntity.java

package com.tutorialspoint.entity;

public class StudentEntity {
   private int id;
   private String name;
   private String classVal;
   private SubjectEntity subject;
   public int getId() {
      return id;
   }
   public void setId(int id) {
      this.id = id;
   }
   public String getName() {
      return name;
   }
   public void setName(String name) {
      this.name = name;
   }
   public String getClassVal() {
      return classVal;
   }
   public void setClassVal(String classVal) {
      this.classVal = classVal;
   }
   public SubjectEntity getSubject() {
      return subject;
   }
   public void setSubject(SubjectEntity subject) {
      this.subject = subject;
   }
}

Update Student.java with following code −

Student.java

package com.tutorialspoint.model;

public class Student {
   private int id;
   private String name;
   private String className;
   private String subject;
   public int getId() {
      return id;
   }
   public void setId(int id) {
      this.id = id;
   }
   public String getName() {
      return name;
   }
   public void setName(String name) {

   Student getModelFromEntity(StudentEntity studentEntity);

   @Mapping(target="classVal", source="className")
   @Mapping(target="subject.name", source="subject")
   StudentEntity getEntityFromModel(Student student);
}

Update StudentMapperTest.java with following code −

MapStruct - Mapping Direct Fields

MapStruct handles direct fields mapping easily. For example, a Student with section as private property and StudentEntity with section as public property. To have both getter/setter mapping, a property should be public. In case of public final, only getter method will be present for mapping.

Now create a mapper interface. We'll use @InheritInverseConfiguration annotation to copy reverse configuration now.

@Mapper
public interface StudentMapper {
   @Mapping(target="className", source="classVal")
   @Mapping(target="subject", source="subject.name")
   Student getModelFromEntity(StudentEntity studentEntity);
	
   @InheritInverseConfiguration
   StudentEntity getEntityFromModel(Student student);
}

Example

Open project mapping as updated in Mapping Nested Objects chapter in Eclipse.

Update StudentEntity.java with following code −

StudentEntity.java

package com.tutorialspoint.entity;

public class StudentEntity {
   private int id;
   private String name;
   private String classVal;
   private SubjectEntity subject;
   public String section;
   public int getId() {
      return id;
   }
   public void setId(int id) {
      this.id = id;
   }
   public String getName() {
      return name;
   }
   public void setName(String name) {
      this.name = name;
   }
   public String getClassVal() {
      return classVal;
   }
   public void setClassVal(String classVal) {
      this.classVal = classVal;
   }
   public SubjectEntity getSubject() {
      return subject;
   }
   public void setSubject(SubjectEntity subject) {
      this.subject = subject;
   }
}

Update Student.java with following code −

   }
   public String getName() {
      return name;
   }
   public void setName(String name) {
      this.name = name;
   }
   public String getClassName() {
      return className;
   }
   public void setClassName(String className) {
      this.className = className;
   }
   public String getSubject() {
      return subject;
   }
   public void setSubject(String subject) {
      this.subject = subject;

      this.id = builder.id;
   }
   public static Student.Builder builder() {
      return new Student.Builder();
   }
   public static class Builder {
      private String name;
      private int id;
      public Builder name(String name) {
         this.name = name;
         return this;
      }
      public Builder id(int id) {
         this.id = id;
         return this;
      }
      public Student create() {
         return new Student( this );

MapStruct - Implicit Type Conversion

MapStruct handles conversion of type conversions automatically in most of the cases. For example, int to Long or String conversion. Conversion handles null values as well. Following are the some of the important automatic conversions.

  • Between primitive types and Corresponding Wrapper Classes.

  • Between primitive types and String.

  • Between enum types and String.

  • Between BigInt, BigDecimal and String.

  • Between Calendar/Date and XMLGregorianCalendar.

  • Between XMLGregorianCalendar and String.

  • Between Jodas date types and String.

Example

Open project mapping as updated in Mapping Using Builder chapter in Eclipse.

Update StudentEntity.java with following code −

StudentEntity.java

package com.tutorialspoint.entity;

   public String section;
   public String getId() {
      return id;
   }
   public void setId(String id) {
      this.id = id;
   }
   public String getName() {
      return name;
   }

MapStruct - Using numberFormat

MapStruct handles conversion of numbers to String in required format seamlessly. We can pass the required format as numberFormat during @Mapping annotation. For example, consider a case where an amount stored in numbers is to be shown in currency format.

  • Source - Entity has price as 350.

  • Target - Model to show price as $350.00.

  • numberFormat - Use format $#.00

Example

MapStruct - Using dateFormat

MapStruct handles conversion of date to String in required format seamlessly. We can pass the required format as dateFormat during @Mapping annotation. For example, consider a case where a date stored in numbers is to be shown in particular format.

  • Source - Entity has date as GregorianCalendar(2015, 3, 5).

  • Target - Model to show date as 05.04.2015.

  • dateFormat - Use format dd.MM.yyyy

Example

MapStruct - Using expression

MapStruct allows to call a conversion method for customized logic. We can use expression to achieve the same where we can pass any java object and call its method to do the conversion.

Syntax

@Mapping(target = "target-property", 
	expression = "java(target-method())")

Here

  • target-property - the property for which we are doing the mapping.

  • expression - mapper will call the java method written in the expression.

  • target-method - target-method is the method to be called. In case method is present in different class, use new class-name.target-method()

Example

Open project mapping as updated in Mapping Using dateFormat chapter in Eclipse.

MapStruct - Using constant

MapStruct allows to map a constant value to a property.

Syntax

@Mapping(target = "target-property", const = "const-value")

Here

  • target-property - the property for which we are doing the mapping.

  • const-value - mapper will map the const-value to target-property.

Following example demonstrates the same.

Example

Open project mapping as updated in Mapping Using dateFormat chapter in Eclipse.

MapStruct - Using defaultValue

Using Mapstruct we can pass the default value in case source property is null using defaultValue attribute of @Mapping annotation.

Syntax

@Mapping(target = "target-property", source="source-property" 
defaultValue = "default-value")

MapStruct - Using defaultExpression

Using Mapstruct we can pass a computed value using defaultExpression in case source property is null using defaultExpression attribute of @Mapping annotation.

Syntax

@Mapping(target = "target-property", source="source-property" defaultExpression = "default-value-method")

Here

  • default-value-method − target-property will be set as result of default-value-method in case source-property is null.

Following example demonstrates the same.

MapStruct - Mapping List

Using Mapstruct we can map list in similar fashion as we map primitives. To get a list of objects, we should provide a mapper method which can map an object.

Syntax

@Mapper
public interface CarMapper {
   List<String> getListOfStrings(List<Integer> listOfIntegers);
   List<Car> getCars(List<CarEntity> carEntities);
   Car getModelFromEntity(CarEntity carEntity);
}

MapStruct - Mapping Map

Using Mapstruct we can create mapping of map objects using @MapMapping annotation. Other rules of mapping are same as we've seen so far.

Syntax

@Mapper
public interface UtilityMapper {
   @MapMapping(valueDateFormat = "dd.MM.yyyy")
   Map<String, String> getMap(Map<Long, GregorianCalendar> source);
}

Following example demonstrates the same.

Example

Open project mapping as updated in Mapping List chapter in Eclipse.

Create UtilityMapper.java with following code −

UtilityMapper.java

package com.tutorialspoint.mapper;

import java.util.GregorianCalendar;
import java.util.Map;

import org.mapstruct.MapMapping;
import org.mapstruct.Mapper;

@Mapper
public interface UtilityMapper {
   @MapMapping(valueDateFormat = "dd.MM.yyyy")
   Map<String, String> getMap(Map<Long, GregorianCalendar> source);
}

Create UtilityMapperTest.java with following code −

UtilityMapperTest.java

package com.tutorialspoint.mapping;

import static org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions.assertEquals;

import java.util.GregorianCalendar;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;

   @Test
   public void testMapMapping() {
      Map<Long, GregorianCalendar> source = new HashMap<>();

MapStruct - Mapping Stream

Using Mapstruct we can create mapping of streams in the same way as we did for collections.

Syntax

@Mapper
public interface UtilityMapper {
   Stream<String> getStream(Stream<Integer> source);
}

Following example demonstrates the same.

Example

Open project mapping as updated in Mapping Map chapter in Eclipse.

Update UtilityMapper.java with following code −

UtilityMapper.java

package com.tutorialspoint.mapper;

import java.util.GregorianCalendar;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.stream.Stream;
import org.mapstruct.MapMapping;
import org.mapstruct.Mapper;

@Mapper
public interface UtilityMapper {
   @MapMapping(valueDateFormat = "dd.MM.yyyy")
   Map<String, String> getMap(Map<Long, GregorianCalendar> source);
   Stream<String> getStream(Stream<Integer> source);
}

Update UtilityMapperTest.java with following code −

UtilityMapperTest.java

package com.tutorialspoint.mapping;

import static org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions.assertEquals;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.GregorianCalendar;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.stream.Stream;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
import org.mapstruct.factory.Mappers;
import com.tutorialspoint.mapper.UtilityMapper;

public class UtilityMapperTest {
   private UtilityMapper utilityMapper=Mappers.getMapper(UtilityMapper.class);
   
   @Test
   public void testMapMapping() {
      Map<Long, GregorianCalendar> source = new HashMap<>();
      source.put(1L, new GregorianCalendar(2015, 3, 5));

      Map<String, String> target = utilityMapper.getMap(source);
      assertEquals("05.04.2015", target.get("1"));		
   }
   @Test
   public void testGetStream() {
      Stream<Integer> numbers = Arrays.asList(1, 2, 3, 4).stream();

      Stream<String> strings = utilityMapper.getStream(numbers);
      assertEquals(4, strings.count());			
   }
}

Run the following command to test the mappings.

mvn clean test

Output

Once command is successful. Verify the output.

MapStruct - Mapping Enum

Mapstruct automatically maps enums. Enums with same name are mapped automatically. In case of different name, we can use @ValueMapping annotation to do the mapping.

Syntax

@Mapper
public interface UtilityMapper {
   @ValueMapping(source = "EXTRA", target = "SPECIAL")
   PlacedOrderType getEnum(OrderType order);
}

Following example demonstrates the same.

Example

Open project mapping as updated in Mapping Stream chapter in Eclipse.

Create OrderType.java with following code −

OrderType.java

package com.tutorialspoint.enums;
public enum OrderType {
   EXTRA, NORMAL, STANDARD
}

Create PlacedOrderType.java with following code −

PlacedOrderType.java

package com.tutorialspoint.enums;
public enum PlacedOrderType {
   SPECIAL, NORMAL, STANDARD
}

Update UtilityMapper.java with following code −

UtilityMapper.java

package com.tutorialspoint.mapper;

import java.util.GregorianCalendar;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.stream.Stream;
import org.mapstruct.MapMapping;
import org.mapstruct.Mapper;
import org.mapstruct.ValueMapping;
import com.tutorialspoint.enums.OrderType;
import com.tutorialspoint.enums.PlacedOrderType;

@Mapper
public interface UtilityMapper {
   @MapMapping(valueDateFormat = "dd.MM.yyyy")
   Map<String, String> getMap(Map<Long, GregorianCalendar> source);
   Stream<String> getStream(Stream<Integer> source);
   
   @ValueMapping(source = "EXTRA", target = "SPECIAL")
   PlacedOrderType getEnum(OrderType order);
}

Update UtilityMapperTest.java with following code −

UtilityMapperTest.java

package com.tutorialspoint.mapping;

import static org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions.assertEquals;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.GregorianCalendar;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.stream.Stream;

import org.mapstruct.factory.Mappers;
import com.tutorialspoint.enums.OrderType;
import com.tutorialspoint.enums.PlacedOrderType;
import com.tutorialspoint.mapper.UtilityMapper;

public class UtilityMapperTest {
   private UtilityMapper utilityMapper=Mappers.getMapper(UtilityMapper.class);

   @Test
   public void testMapMapping() {
      Map<Long, GregorianCalendar> source = new HashMap<>();
      source.put(1L, new GregorianCalendar(2015, 3, 5));

      Map<String, String> target = utilityMapper.getMap(source);
      assertEquals("05.04.2015", target.get("1"));		
   }
   @Test
   public void testGetStream() {
      Stream<Integer> numbers = Arrays.asList(1, 2, 3, 4).stream();
      Stream<String> strings = utilityMapper.getStream(numbers);
      assertEquals(4, strings.count());			
   }   
   @Test
   public void testGetEnum() {
      PlacedOrderType placedOrderType = utilityMapper.getEnum(OrderType.EXTRA);
      PlacedOrderType placedOrderType1 = utilityMapper.getEnum(OrderType.NORMAL);
      PlacedOrderType placedOrderType2 = utilityMapper.getEnum(OrderType.STANDARD);
      assertEquals(PlacedOrderType.SPECIAL.name(), placedOrderType.name());
      assertEquals(PlacedOrderType.NORMAL.name(), placedOrderType1.name());
      assertEquals(PlacedOrderType.STANDARD.name(), placedOrderType2.name());
   }
}

Run the following command to test the mappings.

mvn clean test

Output

Once command is successful. Verify the output.

MapStruct - Throwing Exception

Mapstruct mapper allows throwing specific exception. Consider a case of custom mapping method where we want to throw our custom exception in case of invalid data.

Syntax

@Mapper(uses=DateMapper.class)
public interface UtilityMapper {
    CarEntity getCarEntity(Car car) throws ParseException;
}

Following example demonstrates the same.

Example

Open project mapping as updated in Mapping Enum chapter in Eclipse.

@Mapper(uses=DateMapper.class)
public interface UtilityMapper {
   @MapMapping(valueDateFormat = "dd.MM.yyyy")
   Map<String, String> getMap(Map<Long, GregorianCalendar> source);

   Stream<String> getStream(Stream<Integer> source);

   @ValueMapping(source = "EXTRA", target = "SPECIAL")
   PlacedOrderType getEnum(OrderType order);

   CarEntity getCarEntity(Car car) throws ParseException;
}

class DateMapper {
   public String asString(GregorianCalendar date) {
      return date != null ? new SimpleDateFormat( "yyyy-MM-dd" )
         .format( date.getTime() ) : null;
   }

   public GregorianCalendar asDate(String date) throws ParseException {
      Date date1 = date != null ? new SimpleDateFormat( "yyyy-MM-dd" )
         .parse( date ) : null;
      if(date1 != null) {
         return new GregorianCalendar(date1.getYear(), date1.getMonth(),date1.getDay());

      } catch (ParseException e) {
         exceptionOccured = true;
      }
      assertTrue(exceptionOccured);

MapStruct - Using Custom Mapper

Mapstruct mapper allows creating a custom mapper method to map an object. To mapper interface, we can add a default method.

Syntax

@Mapper(uses=DateMapper.class)
public interface UtilityMapper {
   default Car getCar(CarEntity entity) {
      Car car = new Car();
      car.setId(entity.getId());
      car.setName(entity.getName());
      return car;
   }
}
