Java Streams

The document provides an overview of Java 8 Stream operations, explaining the concept of streams, their sources, and how they function as fixed data structures that support internal iterations. It details nine ways to create streams, differentiates between intermediate and terminal operations, and lists various examples of using filter, map, and flatMap operations. Additionally, it outlines a project setup for demonstrating these operations with model classes and repository layers.

STREAM OPERATIONS - I

Java 8+
Quick recap - What are Streams?

A stream is a sequence of data items that are conceptually


produced one at a time.

Source of stream: Collections (List / Set), Arrays, a Generator


Function or I/O resources like Files can be at the source of a
stream.

A stream is a conceptually fixed data structure (you can’t add


or remove elements from it) whose elements are computed on
demand.

A stream cannot modify the underlying source.

Streams make use of internal iterations: the iteration is


abstracted away through operations such as filter, map, and
sorted.

The code is written in a declarative way: you specify what you


want to achieve (that is, filter dishes that are low in calories) as
opposed to specifying how to implement an operation (using
control-flow blocks such as loops and if conditions).

Quick recap - 9 ways to create Streams

1. Empty stream
2. From array
3. From Collection - List & Set
4. Using Stream Builder -- Stream.builder()
5. Using static method of() -- Stream.of()
6. From generator function -- Stream.generate()
7. From static method iterate -- Stream.iterate()
8. Stream of primitive types -- IntStream, LongStream and
DoubleStream
9. By reading a file -- Files.lines()

streams in 9 ways and filter-map-flatMap with examples:

Types of Stream Operations

There are two types of stream operations: intermediate and


terminal operations.

Intermediate operations such as filter and map return a


stream and can be chained together. They’re used to set up
a pipeline of operations but don’t produce any result.

Terminal operations such as forEach and count return a


non-stream value and process a stream pipeline to return a
result.

The elements of a stream are computed on demand.

Project setup for Stream operations videos

Model Classes:
1. Employee
2. Department
3. Address

Repository Layer: Service Layer:


1. EmployeeRepository 1. EmployeeService
2. DepartmentRepository 2. DepartmentService

Database: DatabaseProxy class consists of static data

Project Structure:

#CodingWalaShree

filter()

An intermediate operation that returns a new stream


consisting of the elements of this stream that match the
given predicate.

Example 1: Get list of employees whose name contains given


sub-string

#CodingWalaShree

Java 8+
filter() -- [cntd.]

Example 2: Get list of employees living in given city -


Repository Layer

Example 3: Get list of employees in given department having


salary greater than given salary - Repository Layer

#CodingWalaShree
STREAM OPERATIONS - I
Java 8+
filter() -- [cntd.]

Example 4: Get list of employees having given skill - Repository


Layer

#CodingWalaShree
STREAM OPERATIONS - I
Java 8+
map()

Returns a new stream consisting of the results of applying


the given function to the elements of this stream.

This is an intermediate operation.

#CodingWalaShree

Java 8+
map() -- [cntd.]

We additionally have a EmpDeptDto class which represents a


DTO or Data Transfer Object.

DTO is a simple Java class used to transfer data between


different layers of an application.

Example 1: Get employee DTOs having given skill - Service Layer

#CodingWalaShree
STREAM OPERATIONS - I
Java 8+
map() -- [cntd.]
Example 2: Get list of employee DTOs in given department
having salary greater than given salary - Service Layer

#CodingWalaShree
STREAM OPERATIONS - I
Java 8+
flatMap()

An intermediate operation that returns a stream consisting


of the results of replacing each element of this stream with
the contents of a mapped stream produced by applying
the provided mapping function to each element.

What is flattening?: In Java Streams, flattening refers to


the process of converting a nested structure (like a list of
lists) into a single-level structure using flatMap()

When working with collections like List<List<T>>, applying


map() would still return a List<List<T>>, which isn't always
useful. flatMap() helps by merging inner lists into a single
stream of elements.
