mapping - marklogic pojo databinding without annotate -

is possible define mapping without using annotate? mentioned below:

@id or @pathindexproperty(scalartype = scalartype.string)

i want define binding in external file , newpojorepository use in order mapping.

thanks.

you can create new class extends independent pojo object , attach pojo annotations new class. here's example. remember create path range index of type int on managedcat/averageheight.

cat.java

public class cat {     private string id;     private int averageheight;      public cat() {}      public cat(string id, int averageheight) {         this.id = id;         this.averageheight = averageheight;     }      public string getid() {         return id;     }      public void setid(string id) {         this.id = id;     }      public int getaverageheight() {         return averageheight;     }      public void setaverageheight(int averageheight) {         this.averageheight = averageheight;     }      public string tostring() {         return "id=[" + id + "] averageheight=[" + averageheight + "]";     } } 

managedcat.java

import com.marklogic.client.pojo.annotation.id; import com.marklogic.client.pojo.annotation.pathindexproperty; import com.marklogic.client.pojo.annotation.pathindexproperty.scalartype;  public class managedcat extends cat {     public managedcat() {         super();     }      public managedcat(string id, int averageheight) {         super(id, averageheight);     }      @id     @override     public string getid() {         return super.getid();     }      @pathindexproperty(scalartype = scalartype.string)     @override     public int getaverageheight() {         return super.getaverageheight();     } } 

catmanager.java

import com.marklogic.client.databaseclient; import com.marklogic.client.databaseclientfactory; import static com.marklogic.client.databaseclientfactory.authentication.digest; import com.marklogic.client.pojo.pojopage; import com.marklogic.client.pojo.pojoquerydefinition; import com.marklogic.client.pojo.pojorepository; import static com.marklogic.client.pojo.pojoquerybuilder.operator.gt; import java.util.arraylist; import java.util.list;  public class catmanager {     private databaseclient client = databaseclientfactory.newclient(         "localhost", 8000, "admin", "admin", digest);     private pojorepository<managedcat, string> catrepo =         client.newpojorepository(managedcat.class, string.class);     private pojoquerydefinition largecatquery =         catrepo.getquerybuilder().range("averageheight", gt, 20);     private long start = 1;      public void savecat(managedcat cat) {         catrepo.write(cat);     }      public cat getcat(string id) {         return catrepo.read(id);     }      public list<cat> getlargecats() {         arraylist list = new arraylist<cat>();         catrepo.search(largecatquery, start)             .foreach(cat -> list.add(cat));         return list;     }      public static void main(string[] args) {         catmanager catmgr = new catmanager();         catmgr.savecat( new managedcat("housecat", 10) );         catmgr.savecat( new managedcat("lion",     45) );          system.out.println("saved house cat=[" + catmgr.getcat("housecat")+ "]");         system.out.println("saved lion=[" + catmgr.getcat("lion")+ "]");         system.out.println("large cats=[" + catmgr.getlargecats()  + "]");     } }
