That was the first method to add to the brand new repository. So we created a repository for the application, annotated it with @Repository and @Transactional. We did the same for the Actor.
@Repository @Transactional public class CineastsRepostory { FinderFactory finderFactory; Finder<Movie> movieFinder; @Autowired public CineastsRepostory(FinderFactory finderFactory) { this.finderFactory = finderFactory; this.movieFinder = finderFactory.createNodeEntityFinder(Movie.class); } public Movie getMovie(int id) { return movieFinder.findByPropertyValue(null,"id", id); } }
