QuerydslAbstractMongodbQuery lacks a toJson method [DATAMONGO-2327]

[spring-projects-issues]

Marc Tarin opened DATAMONGO-2327 and commented

Hello.

Starting with Spring Data MongoDB 2.1.9 (Spring Boot 2.1), SpringDataMongodbQuery inherits its where() method from QuerydslAbstractMongodbQuery instead of AbstractMongodbQuery.

QuerydslAbstractMongodbQuery favors org.bson.Document over com.mongodb.DBObject

Therefore, while AbstractMongodbQuery$toString() provides a parseable JSON string of a queryDSL Predicate (using DBObject$toString()),  QuerydslAbstractMongodbQuery$toString() does not, as it uses Document.toString().

 

For use cases similar to the example in the referred URL, QuerydslAbstractMongodbQuery could benefit having a toJson() method that internally uses Document$toJson()
