Hibernate Envers Implementation

Extends Spring Data JPA with to audit all changes to your entities automatically.

Why Use Envers?

  • Compliance & Audit: Track who changed what and when.

  • Version History: Revert or compare entity versions over time.

Spring Data Envers is a tool for auditing changes made to persistent entities in a Spring-based application. It allows developers to track and log changes made to entities over time, providing a historical view of the data. This can be useful for compliance and regulatory purposes, as well as for debugging and performance analysis. Spring Data Envers integrates with the Hibernate Envers library and offers a convenient and declarative way to enable auditing in a Spring application.

Additional Notes

  • By default, Envers creates dedicated audit tables with _AUD suffix.

  • If you need custom revision listeners, see the RevisionListener interface.

Format code

./mvnw spotless:apply

Run tests

./mvnw clean verify

Run locally

docker-compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml up -d
./mvnw spring-boot:run -Dspring-boot.run.profiles=local

Using Testcontainers at Development Time

You can run TestApplication.java from your IDE directly. You can also run the application using Maven as follows:

./mvnw spring-boot:test-run

Update to Spring Boot 3

  • Removed problem-spring-web-starter and replaced with Spring OOTB spring.mvc.problemdetails.enabled=true

  • Migrated from javax namespace to jakarta namespace

  • By Default hibernate_sequence is not used instead tablename_seq is used while mapping sequence name and pooled-lo generation strategy is used OOTB
