Spring Data Rest - Exposing ID - json

Question

I am trying to expose the Id of my domain on the Json response using Spring Data Rest, besides getting it on the self object. I try what I saw on the internet but it is not working. I am using Spring Boot and this is my starting class and my config class for exposing the Id.
package com.desingfreed;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.ComponentScan;
#SpringBootApplication
#ComponentScan("com.designfreed")
public class GaliasBackendApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(GaliasBackendApplication.class, args);
}
}
package com.desingfreed.config;
import com.desingfreed.domain.Articulo;
import org.springframework.data.rest.core.config.RepositoryRestConfiguration;
import org.springframework.data.rest.webmvc.config.RepositoryRestConfigurerAdapter;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;
#Component
public class ConfigurationRest extends RepositoryRestConfigurerAdapter {
#Override
public void configureRepositoryRestConfiguration(RepositoryRestConfiguration config) {
config.exposeIdsFor(Articulo.class);
}
}
package com.desingfreed.repositories;
import com.desingfreed.domain.Articulo;
import org.springframework.data.repository.CrudRepository;
import org.springframework.data.rest.core.annotation.RepositoryRestResource;
#RepositoryRestResource(collectionResourceRel = "articulos", path = "articulos")
public interface ArticuloRepository extends CrudRepository<Articulo, Long> {
}
package com.desingfreed.domain;
import javax.persistence.*;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
#Entity
#Table(name = "STA11")
public class Articulo {
#Id
#GeneratedValue
#Column(name = "ID_STA11")
private Long id;
#Column(name = "COD_ARTICU")
private String codigo;
#Column(name = "DESCRIPCIO")
private String descripcion;
// #OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL, fetch = FetchType.EAGER, orphanRemoval = true, mappedBy = "articulo")
// private List<Precio> precios = new ArrayList<>();
public Articulo() {
}
public Long getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(Long id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getCodigo() {
return codigo;
}
public void setCodigo(String codigo) {
this.codigo = codigo;
}
public String getDescripcion() {
return descripcion;
}
public void setDescripcion(String descripcion) {
this.descripcion = descripcion;
}
// public List<Precio> getPrecios() {
// return precios;
// }
//
// public void setPrecios(List<Precio> precios) {
// this.precios = precios;
// }
#Override
public boolean equals(Object o) {
if (this == o) return true;
if (o == null || getClass() != o.getClass()) return false;
Articulo articulo = (Articulo) o;
if (id != null ? !id.equals(articulo.id) : articulo.id != null) return false;
if (codigo != null ? !codigo.equals(articulo.codigo) : articulo.codigo != null) return false;
return descripcion != null ? descripcion.equals(articulo.descripcion) : articulo.descripcion == null;
}
#Override
public int hashCode() {
int result = id != null ? id.hashCode() : 0;
result = 31 * result + (codigo != null ? codigo.hashCode() : 0);
result = 31 * result + (descripcion != null ? descripcion.hashCode() : 0);
return result;
}
#Override
public String toString() {
return "Articulo{" +
"id=" + id +
", codigo='" + codigo + '\'' +
", descripcion='" + descripcion + '\'' +
'}';
}
}
Although doing this I still can get the Id on the Json response, I still get like this:
"_embedded" : {
"articulos" : [ {
"codigo" : "111012082",
"descripcion" : "VIRGEN LEV. FRESCA X 500G",
"_links" : {
"self" : {
"href" : "http://localhost:8080/articulos/1"
},
"articulo" : {
"href" : "http://localhost:8080/articulos/1"
}
}
Thanks very much!

For your information, i've created a simple component to dynamically expose every id.
#Component
public class EntityExposingIdConfiguration extends RepositoryRestConfigurerAdapter {
#Override
public void configureRepositoryRestConfiguration(RepositoryRestConfiguration config) {
try {
Field exposeIdsFor = RepositoryRestConfiguration.class.getDeclaredField("exposeIdsFor");
exposeIdsFor.setAccessible(true);
ReflectionUtils.setField(exposeIdsFor, config, new ListAlwaysContains());
} catch (NoSuchFieldException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
class ListAlwaysContains extends ArrayList {
#Override
public boolean contains(Object o) {
return true;
}
}
}
