Is possible to auto-generate builders for a Java class using @Builder lombok annotation. They’re really simple though and do not provide auto-filling. They just create an API to fill them with test data.
All we need is to put the annotation into a Java class
@Builder
@Getter
@Setter
@NoArgsConstructor
@AllArgsConstructor
public class PersonDto {
private long id;
private String name;
private int age;
@Singular
private Set<String> hobbies;
}
This provides the basic API to use them as follows
public class Whatever {
public PersonDto buildPerson() {
return PersonDto.builder().age(18)
.hobby("live")
.name("Sergey")
.id(11235434L)
.build();
}
}
The @Singular annotation is given to Collections and it adds a couple of methods. One to add a single Object, another to add Collections of Objects and a third one to clear all.
