Unlocking the Power of Bidirectional One-to-One Relations
In this in-depth guide, we'll explore the intricacies of mutual one-to-one associations, CRUD operations, and the role of mappedBy, @JsonManagedReference, and @JsonBackReference in efficient data modeling.
- Understanding Mutual One-to-One Associations
- Streamlining CRUD Operations
- The Importance of mappedBy
- Demystifying @JsonManagedReference
- Unlocking the Potential of @JsonBackReference
Through a concise example, we'll demonstrate how to seamlessly integrate these concepts, starting with entity definition.
Let's begin by modeling our entities.
Next, we'll examine how Hibernate generates the tables.
In this example, we've designated Address as the owning side of the one-to-one relationship, with Organization as the referencing side. This approach ensures that the foreign key relationship is established in both the address and organization tables. Now, let's delve into the code. We'll utilize the mappedBy attribute in conjunction with the @OneToOne annotation to define this relationship. The mappedBy attribute specifies the referencing side of the relationship, indicating to Hibernate that the relationship’s key resides on the other side.

Organization Entity
package com.notyfyd.entity;
import javax.persistence.*;
@Entity@Table(name = "t_organization")
public class Organization {
@Id @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
private Long entityId;
private String companyName;
private String organizationCode;
@OneToOne(targetEntity = Address.class, cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
private Address headquarters;
public Long getEntityId() {
return this.entityId;
}
public void setEntityId(Long entityId) {
this.entityId = entityId;
}
public String getCompanyName() {
return this.companyName;
}
public void setCompanyName(String companyName) {
this.companyName = companyName;
}
public String getOrganizationCode() {
return this.organizationCode;
}
public void setOrganizationCode(String organizationCode) {
this.organizationCode = organizationCode;
}
public Address getHeadquarters() {
return this.headquarters;
}
public void setHeadquarters(Address headquarters) {
this.headquarters = headquarters;
}
}Institutional Address Entity
package com.notyfyd.entity;
import javax.persistence.*;
@Entity@Table(name = "t_address")
public class Address {
@Id @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
private Long id;
private String building;
private String street;
private String city;
private String state;
private String country;
private String zipcode;
@OneToOne(targetEntity = Organization.class, mappedBy = "address")
private Organization organization;
public Long getId() {
return this.id;
}
public void setId(Long id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getBuilding() {
return this.building;
}
public void setBuilding(String building) {
this.building = building;
}
public String getStreet() {
return this.street;
}
public void setStreet(String street) {
this.street = street;
}
public String getCity() {
return this.city;
}
public void setCity(String city) {
this.city = city;
}
public String getState() {
return this.state;
}
public void setState(String state) {
this.state = state;
}
public String getCountry() {
return this.country;
}
public void setCountry(String country) {
this.country = country;
}
public String getZipcode() {
return this.zipcode;
}
public void setZipcode(String zipcode) {
this.zipcode = zipcode;
}
public Organization getOrganization() {
return organization;
}
public void setOrganization(Organization organization) {
this.organization = organization;
}
}@OneToOne(targetEntity = Organization.class, mappedBy = "address")
private Organization organization;
In this particular scenario, the mappedBy attribute is invariably set to “parent”, implying that Address will assume the role of the owning side, while Organization will serve as the inverse reference.
