byte[] mapping problem

[ArtDu]

Добрый день. Средствами cartridge-springdata можно как-то сложить данные в бинарном виде? Пробовал менять поле на varbinary, говорит, что не может строку преобразовать в varbinary, хотя в сущности поле определено с типом byte[]. Пробовал в тарантуле поле оставлять строковым, а в сущности byte[], тоже не работает. В тестах репозитория не нашел примеров с вставкой бинарных данных в тарантул средствами java

To reproduce the problem, I took an existing test by adding a byte [] field to the entity

@Test
public void testSave() {
    BookTranslation translation = BookTranslation.builder()
            .bookId(2)
            .language("Russian")
            .edition(22)
            .translator("Ivan Ivanov")
            .comments("Some translation")
            .bytesString("Hello".getBytes())
            .build();
    BookTranslation newTranslation = bookTranslationRepository.save(translation);
    assertThat(newTranslation).isEqualTo(translation);
}

Reproducer showed that data is written to tarantool normally, since messagePack binary is processed as a string in a tarantool. But we cannot get them back to java, since messagePack String comes and we are trying to convert it tobyte []

The problem is that byte [] is collection, and the code asks us to return list

cartridge-springdata/src/main/java/org/springframework/data/tarantool/core/convert/MappingTarantoolReadConverter.java

Lines 200 to 201 in 5e06e8f

	if (propType.isCollectionLike()) {
	value = ((TarantoolTuple) source).getList(fieldName);

The workaround was to use a custom mapper:

MessagePackMapper defaultMapper =
                DefaultMessagePackMapperFactory.getInstance().defaultComplexTypesMapper();
        defaultMapper.registerValueConverter(
                ImmutableStringValueImpl.class, List.class, object -> {
                    final List<Byte> list = new ArrayList<>();
                    for (byte b : object.toString().getBytes()) {
                        list.add(b);
                    }
                    return list;
                });

Also globally the problem may be related to this: tarantool/tarantool#1629

This bug must be fixed in the driver, I opened an issue tarantool/cartridge-java#144.

Storing byte arrays in the fields of type string requires a custom string-to-byte-array conversion on the client level using SpringData's custom converters mechanism (see

cartridge-springdata/src/main/java/org/springframework/data/tarantool/config/AbstractTarantoolDataConfiguration.java

Line 220 in d8d1e2b

protected List<?> customConverters() {

). It is a valid w/a for this case, although creating Strings and then converting them into byte arrays may result in a huge memory overhead on the client.

Could be implrmrnted only for Tarantool 3.0
