[FIXED] how to handle DuplicateKeyException in Spring data mongodb

Issue

Method to insert data

    public  String home()  {

    try
    {
    MongoData data=new MongoData();
    data.setDate(new Date());
    data.setName("frji");

    //mongoTemplate.insert(data);
    mongoTemplate.save(data);
    }
    catch (DuplicateKeyException e) {

    }
    catch (MongoException e) {

    }
    return "home";
}

Entity class

  @Document(collection="integer_test")
public class MongoData {
    @Id
    private String id;
    private Date date;
    @Indexed(unique=true)
    private String name;
    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return "MongoData [date=" + date + ", id=" + id + "]";
    }
    public Date getDate() {
        return date;
    }
    public void setDate(Date date) {
        this.date = date;
    }
    public String getId() {
        return id;
    }
    public void setId(String id) {
        this.id = id;
    }
    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }
    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

}

But it does not catch the exception. it will show on user interface.Then how can i catch this exception in java end.

Solution

You can create your HandlerExceptionResolver to handle and show the user friendly message to the UI.

How to create HandlerExceptionResolver

Update : If you just want to handle the exception then write org.springframework.dao.DuplicateKeyException in the catch block.

try{
  //TODO
} catch(org.springframework.dao.DuplicateKeyException e){
 //TODO - Do what you want
}
