ebean-spring-txn

Integration with Spring managed transactions.

This project provides an Ebean ExternalTransactionManager specifically to integrate with Springs JDBC Transaction manager.

To use

ServerConfig serverConfig = new ServerConfig();

// set SpringJdbcTransactionManager ... as the external transaction manager
serverConfig.setExternalTransactionManager(new SpringJdbcTransactionManager());

...
EbeanServer server = EbeanServerFactory.create(serverConfig);

Notes

You can use Ebean in Spring/Spring Boot without this and that case Ebean manages the Transactions itself. With Ebean managing the transactions there are some benefits with more control over JDBC batch, getGeneratedKeys and a simpler abstraction (as Spring transactions is designed to manage multiple resources such as JDBC Transactions and JPA EntityManager and Ebean only needs to manage JDBC Transactions).
