How to Use MySQL Function in QueryDSL with SQL Statements?

When working with databases, we often encounter situations where we need to query encrypted fields, like phone numbers. If you're using QueryDSL as your query builder and you find that a function like FN_DECRYPT isn't working as expected, don’t worry; you're not alone. Many developers face similar challenges when trying to execute SQL statements through QueryDSL, especially when encryption is involved. In this post, we’ll break down how to address this issue step by step.

The Challenge

You may have found yourself trying to use a decryption function in QueryDSL to search through encrypted phone numbers in your database. For example, you want to run a query that looks like this in plain SQL:

However, implementing this in QueryDSL can be tricky because it doesn't naturally support direct SQL syntax.

Understanding Your Initial Code

Let's start by looking at the code snippet you initially attempted:

In this code, you attempted to prepend and append the FN_DECRYPT function directly on the info.nickNm. However, this syntax won't translate properly into SQL.

The Solution

To correctly use MySQL functions within QueryDSL, you can utilize the Expressions.booleanTemplate method. This allows you to write more complex SQL expressions directly. Here’s how you can modify your code to implement the FN_DECRYPT function:

Step-by-Step Implementation

Update the BooleanBuilder Code: Use Expressions.booleanTemplate to construct the SQL-like expression for the decrypted phone number.

Here’s the updated code:

Key Changes Made:

Using Expressions.booleanTemplate: This method allows you to create a custom SQL expression which can include the FN_DECRYPT function and uses placeholders ({0}) for the parameters.

Replacing Dashes: The replaceAll("-", "") method is used to cleanse the search text by removing dashes, accommodating the format your data might be in.

Conclusion

By adjusting your code to leverage Expressions.booleanTemplate, you can successfully query encrypted fields in your database with QueryDSL. Not only does this approach solve the immediate issue with the FN_DECRYPT function not working, but it also sets a solid foundation for any further SQL functionalities you may wish to implement in QueryDSL.
