Using something ala Spring Data JDBC with Quarkus.

Hi.

I don't like using ORMs for accessing databases, don't like that I need to fetch data from the database before doing a save, for instance.
But I really do like Quarkus, so I was wondering if it really isn't possible to have database access without using Hibernate or Panache? (without writing old fashion JDBC Java SQL code?

Thx.. But I do not like JOOQ either. I would like to write the SQL myself, when it is more than standard CRUD methods, those I would like to just use.. And I know, I am a bit weird.. :)

You don't need to load data from the database to save it.

Tried to use stateless session?

[bjorntj]

No, I haven't. Maybe worth checking out.

But that does not really solve the issue where I like to write complex SQL queries myself. But might be that the Query annotation can be used.
Really like the new JdbcClient in Spring Boot for writing SQL queries.

Apache commons DbUtils.
But I suppose you can use Hibernate without entities, just use stateless sessions and native queries.

Seems to be too much manually work at first glance but will check it out. Thx. :)

Although Spring Data JDBC is nice, it does not support composite keys, so is pretty useless for existing databases.
