Spring Data Repository supports paging for queries, allowing you to return results in small, manageable chunks rather than retrieving an entire large result set.
The conventional approach to paginating data in Spring is to use the Pageable interface to control pagination and to store the query
results into a Page or Slice. If a query declaration in a Spring Data Repository returns a Page or
Slice without taking a Pageable as an input, it raises a runtime exception.
This rule raises an issue on queries in a Repository that return a Page or Slice without taking a
Pageable as an input.
Ensure that query methods returning a Page or Slice include a Pageable parameter in their method
signature.
interface ItemRepository extends JpaRepository<Item, Long> {
Page<Item> findItems(); //non compliant, no Pageable parameter
}
interface ItemRepository extends JpaRepository<Item, Long> {
Page<Item> findItems(Pageable pageable);
}
