Jhipster 7.0.1 and couchbase 7

[blackxMan]

Hello,
is there any chance to support couchbase 7 with scopes & collections feature.
thank you

If you're willing to do the work, we'd love to have Couchbase support! We dropped it from JHipster 7 because we found Spring Data's support wasn't that great with Spring Boot 2.3 and 2.4.

See #14184 for more information.

hey @mraible,
Thanks for answer, i think they fix all problem in the new version Spring Data Couchbase 4.0 based on couchbase sdk 3

[mraible]

@blackxMan If you'd like to see Couchbase support re-added, you're more than welcome to fork my repo and contribute to the fix-couchbase branch. I've spent too many hours on it and I'm no longer interested in working on it.

On the contrary, things go broken since Spring Data Couchbase 4.0 release.
I also spent too many hours trying to fix it.

Hey,
I'm working on this right now:

1. Updating JHipster codebase to use the new version of Spring Data Couchbase 4 based on Couchbase SDK 3
2. Re-wiring some of the older code (wherever CB related database code is) to ensure that it works with Spring Data and Couchbase SDK API calls.
3. Running through the test suites of JHipster to ensure that they pass — as I hit failures in the tests, I'll keep resolving these issues as I go along

If I need help or get stuck along the way, will reach out.
Thanks

@coderguy-tech do not forget #14184, you can continue based on that...

Thanks, I'll take a look at that

As I was working on the fix I came across an issue with the Couchmove implementation. Couchbase's SearchIndex class' toJson() function does not output all of the custom data used to create a SearchIndex object, resulting in FTS indices not being created properly with all the required data in the database. So, I've created a custom SearchIndex class and created a PR in the couchmove repo to fix this bug there: tchlyah/couchmove#13.

@gkysaad I merged on BOM the update to couchmove 3.1.1

@gkysaad @coderguy-tech Fill free to continue the work started on couchbase migration for spring-boot 2.4+ in #14184

[gkysaad]

Thanks @DanielFran! I've been working based on the branch in #14184 but I'm working off a new branch that's rebased with jhipster:main as the changes on that branch were way behind the latest code and thus led to too many merge conflicts when I tried to rebase.

[gkysaad]

I've created a PR (#15645) with my fixes and implementation for Spring Data Couchbase 4.
