JPA Stats module

This tiny module helps you determine how many database queries were used for a page. It contains tags that you can use to output the number of queries on the page, and it can optionally output the same information as headers in the HTTP response too. This is especially useful to determine the amount of queries for an Ajax request.

Usage

Add the jpastats module to your dependencies.yml:

require:
  - play -> jpastats

Then, run play dependencies and you’re good to go!

Tags

#{jpastats.databaseQueries /}

This will output the number of database queries for this request.

#{jpastats.hibernateQueries /}

This will output the number of explicit Hibernate queries. So the amount of times you did an HQL query or called Model.find etcetera.

#{jpastats.fetchedCollections /}

The number of collections Hibernate fetched in this request.

#{jpastats.fetchedEntities /}

The number of entities Hibernate fetched.

Note

Be aware that the values are calculated when the tag is processed. So if you put the tag at the top of the page, and lower in the page your template causes more collections or entities to be lazily fetched, the number will be off.

Headers

If you add jpastats.header=true to your application.conf, this module will also output the information in the headers of the response. Especially useful to determine the amount of queries that an Ajax request used.

Configuration settings

jpastats.enabled

Enable statistics gathering. It is recommended to set to false this if you don’t use the plugin, for example in production. Default is true

jpastats.headers

Enable outputting of statistics in response headers. Recommended to set to false in production. Defaults to false.
