Programmatic generator configuration
Available in ✅ Open Source Edition ✅ Express Edition ✅ Professional Edition ✅ Enterprise Edition
Configuring your code generator with Java, Groovy, etc.
In the previous sections, we have covered how to set up jOOQ's code generator using XML, either by running a standalone Java application, or by using Maven. However, it is also possible to use jOOQ's GenerationTool programmatically. The XSD file used for the configuration (http://www.jooq.org/xsd/jooq-codegen-3.3.0.xsd) is processed using XJC to produce Java artefacts. The below example uses those artefacts to produce the equivalent configuration of the previous PostgreSQL / Maven example:
// Use the fluent-style API to construct the code generator configuration
import org.jooq.util.jaxb.*;
// [...]
Configuration configuration = new Configuration()
.withJdbc(new Jdbc()
.withDriver("org.postgresql.Driver")
.withUrl("jdbc:postgresql:postgres")
.withUser("postgres")
.withPassword("test"))
.withGenerator(new Generator()
.withDatabase(new Database()
.withName("org.jooq.util.postgres.PostgresDatabase")
.withIncludes(".*")
.withExcludes("")
.withInputSchema("public"))
.withTarget(new Target()
.withPackageName("org.jooq.util.maven.example")
.withDirectory("target/generated-sources/jooq")));
GenerationTool.main(configuration);
For the above example, you will need all of jooq-3.3.4.jar, jooq-meta-3.3.4.jar, and jooq-codegen-3.3.4.jar, on your classpath.
