+
+## Helping AI agents find these guides
+
+AI coding agents can only follow these guides if they know they exist. Below are
+copy-paste snippets for the most common AI tooling configurations. Add whichever
+applies to your project.
+
+
+### Project `README.md` (universal — works with all AI tools)
+
+Add a section near the top of your project README:
+
+```markdown
+## AI Agent Instructions
+
+This project uses [Ebean ORM](https://ebean.io). Step-by-step guides for common
+Ebean tasks (Maven setup, database configuration, test containers, DB migrations,
+Lombok) are at:
+
+**https://github.com/ebean-orm/ebean/tree/main/docs/guides/**
+
+AI agents should fetch and follow the relevant guide before performing Ebean-related
+tasks.
+```
+
+### Why README is important
+
+Many AI agents (Copilot, Claude, Cursor, Aider) read the project `README.md`
+automatically as part of understanding the codebase. A visible link in README is the
+most universally effective way to ensure any agent working on your project will
+discover the guides without requiring tool-specific configuration files.

+# Guide: Add Ebean Database Migration Generation to an Existing Maven Project
+
+## Purpose
+
+This guide provides step-by-step instructions for adding Ebean DB migration generation
+to an existing Maven project that already uses Ebean ORM. Ebean generates migrations by
+performing a diff of the current entity model against the previously recorded model state,
+producing platform-specific DDL SQL scripts.
+
+These instructions are designed for AI agents and developers to follow precisely.
+
+---
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- An existing Maven project with Ebean ORM configured (entity beans present)
+- `ebean-test` is already a test-scoped dependency (from POM setup guide)
+- The project targets PostgreSQL (adjust `Platform.POSTGRES` for other databases)
+
+---
+
+## Step 1 — Verify migration dependencies
+
+### Generation tooling (`ebean-ddl-generator`)
+
+`ebean-test` (already present as a test dependency) transitively includes
+`ebean-ddl-generator`, which provides the `DbMigration` class. No additional dependency
+is required for generation.
+
+### Runtime migration runner (`ebean-migration`)
+
+`ebean-migration` is the library that runs migrations on application startup.
+It is typically included **transitively** via `io.ebean:ebean-postgres` (or the
+equivalent platform dependency). Verify it is on the classpath by running:
+
+```bash
+mvn dependency:tree | grep ebean-migration
+```
+
+If it is **not** present transitively, add it explicitly as a compile-scope dependency:
+
+```xml
+<dependency>
+    <groupId>io.ebean</groupId>
+    <artifactId>ebean-migration</artifactId>
+    <version>${ebean.version}</version>
+</dependency>
+```
+
+---
+
+## Step 2 — Create `GenerateDbMigration.java`
+
+Create the following class in `src/test/java/main/`. This `main` method is run manually
+by a developer (or AI agent) whenever entity beans change and a new migration is needed.
+
+```java
+package main;
+
+import io.ebean.annotation.Platform;
+import io.ebean.dbmigration.DbMigration;
+
+import java.io.IOException;
+
+/**
+ * Generate the next database migration based on a diff of the entity model.
+ * Run this main method after making entity bean changes to produce the migration SQL.
+ */
+public class GenerateDbMigration {
+
+    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
+
+        DbMigration migration = DbMigration.create();
+        migration.setPlatform(Platform.POSTGRES);
+
+        migration.setVersion("1.1");           // set to the next migration version
+        migration.setName("add-customer");     // short description of the change
+
+        migration.generateMigration();
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### Version naming convention
+
+Ebean supports two common version formats — choose one and apply it consistently:
+
+| Format | Example | Notes |
+|--------|---------|-------|
+| **Date-based** | `20240820` | `YYYYMMDD`; used when changes are tied to dates; easily sortable |
+| **Semantic** | `1.1`, `1.2`, `2.0` | Traditional versioning; useful for release-based workflows |
+
+The version controls execution order — Ebean runs migrations in ascending version order.
+
+### Name convention
+
+The `name` should be a short, lowercase, hyphenated description of the change:
+- `add-customer-email`
+- `rename-machine-type`
+- `drop-unused-columns`
+
+---
+
+## Step 3 — Configure the output path (if needed)
+
+By default, migration files are written to `src/main/resources/dbmigration/` relative
+to the **current working directory** when `generateMigration()` is called. This is
+usually the module root, which is correct for single-module projects.
+
+For **multi-module projects** where `GenerateDbMigration` is in a submodule but the
+resources directory is at a different relative path, specify it explicitly:
+
+```java
+// Relative path from the working directory (project root) to the module's resources
+migration.setPathToResources("my-module/src/main/resources");
+```
+
+---
+
+## Step 4 — Run `GenerateDbMigration` to produce the first migration
+
+Run the `main` method via the IDE or Maven:
+
+```bash
+# Run via Maven exec plugin (or use IDE run configuration)
+mvn test-compile exec:java \
+    -Dexec.mainClass="main.GenerateDbMigration" \
+    -Dexec.classpathScope="test" \
+    -pl <your-module>
+```
+
+Ebean migration generation runs in **offline mode** — no database connection is required.
+
+### Expected output files
+
+After running, two files are created per migration in `src/main/resources/dbmigration/`:
+
+```
+src/main/resources/dbmigration/
+  1.1__add-customer.sql           ← DDL SQL to apply (commit this)
+  model/
+    1.1__add-customer.model.xml   ← logical model diff XML (commit this)
+```
+
+Both files must be committed to source control. The `.model.xml` file records the
+logical state of the diff and is used by subsequent migration generations to determine
+what has changed.
+
+If **no entity beans have changed** since the last migration, the command outputs:
+```
+DbMigration - no changes detected - no migration written
+```
+
+---
+
+## Step 5 — Enable the migration runner
+
+Configure Ebean to run pending migrations automatically on application startup.
+
+### Preferred approach — programmatic via `DatabaseBuilder`
+
+Set `runMigration(true)` directly on the `DatabaseBuilder` when constructing
+the `Database` bean. This is the preferred approach as it is explicit, co-located with
+the database configuration, and does not rely on external property files.
+
+In the `@Factory` class that builds the `Database` bean (see the database configuration
+guide), add `.runMigration(true)` to the builder chain:
+
+```java
+@Bean
+Database database(ConfigWrapper config) {
+    var dataSource = DataSourceBuilder.create()
+        .url(config.getDatabaseUrl())
+        .username(config.getDatabaseUser())
+        .password(config.getDatabasePassword())
+        // ... other datasource settings ...
+        ;
+
+    return Database.builder()
+        .name("db")
+        .dataSourceBuilder(dataSource)
+        .runMigration(true)          // run pending migrations on startup
+        .build();
+}
+```
+
+If migrations should only run in certain environments (e.g., not in production, or
+only when a config flag is set), make it conditional:
+
+```java
+.runMigration(config.isRunMigrations())   // driven by config value
+```
+
+### Alternative — via application properties
+
+If programmatic configuration is not available or not preferred, set the property
+in `src/main/resources/application.properties`:
+
+```properties
+ebean.migration.run=true
+```
+
+Or in `src/main/resources/application.yaml`:
+```yaml
+ebean:
+  migration:
+    run: true
+```
+
+For a **named database** (i.e., `Database.builder().name("mydb")`), use the database
+name in the property key:
+
+```properties
+ebean.mydb.migration.run=true
+```
+
+### What the runner does at startup
+
+When migration running is enabled, Ebean will on each application start:
+1. Look at the migrations in `src/main/resources/dbmigration/`
+2. Compare against the `db_migration` table (created automatically on first run)
+3. Apply any migrations that have not yet been executed, in version order
+4. Record each successfully applied migration in `db_migration`
+
+---
+
+## Step 6 — Commit the migration files
+
+Add both generated files to source control:
+
+```bash
+git add src/main/resources/dbmigration/1.1__add-customer.sql
+git add src/main/resources/dbmigration/model/1.1__add-customer.model.xml
+git commit -m "Add db migration 1.1: add-customer"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Ongoing workflow — generating subsequent migrations
+
+For each future set of entity bean changes:
+
+1. Make changes to the entity bean classes
+2. Update `GenerateDbMigration.java` with the **new version** and **new name**:
+   ```java
+   migration.setVersion("1.2");
+   migration.setName("add-address-table");
+   ```
+3. Run the `main` method — a new `.sql` and `.model.xml` pair is written
+4. Review the generated `.sql` to confirm it reflects the intended changes
+5. Commit both files
+
+---
+
+## Understanding the output files
+
+### Apply SQL (`.sql`)
+
+The apply SQL file contains the DDL that will be executed against the database:
+
+```sql
+-- apply changes
+alter table customer add column email varchar(255);
+```
+
+### Model XML (`.model.xml`)
+
+The model XML records the logical diff in a database-agnostic format. Ebean uses
+this file on the next generation run to determine what has already been captured.
+It is not executed against the database.
+
+```xml
+<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
+<migration xmlns="http://ebean-orm.github.io/xml/ns/dbmigration">
+  <changeSet type="apply">
+    <addColumn tableName="customer">
+      <column name="email" type="varchar(255)"/>
+    </addColumn>
+  </changeSet>
+</migration>
+```
+
+---
+
+## Optional configurations
+
+### Multiple database platforms
+
+To generate migrations for multiple platforms simultaneously, use `addPlatform()`
+instead of `setPlatform()`:
+
+```java
+migration.addPlatform(Platform.POSTGRES);
+migration.addPlatform(Platform.SQLSERVER17);
+migration.addPlatform(Platform.MYSQL);
+```
+
+Each platform gets its own subdirectory under `dbmigration/`.
+
+### Include index
+
+When enabled the migration generation also generates a file that contains
+all the migrations and their associated hashes. This is a performance
+optimisation (that will become the default) and means that the migration
+runner just needs to read the one resource and has the pre-computed hash
+values (so does not need to read each migration resource and compute the
+hash for each of those at runtime).
+
+```java
+migration.setIncludeIndex(true);
+```
+
+### Strict mode
+
+Strict mode (on by default) errors if there are any pending drops not yet applied.
+Set to `false` to allow generation to proceed regardless:
+
+```java
+migration.setStrictMode(false);
+```
+
+### Applying pending drops
+
+Destructive changes (drop column, drop table) are **not** included in the apply
+SQL by default — they are recorded as `pendingDrops` in the model XML. This allows
+the application to be deployed without immediately dropping columns (important for
+rolling deployments).
+
+The migration runner logs a message when pending drops exist:
+```
+INFO  DbMigration - Pending un-applied drops in versions [1.1]
+```
+
+When ready to apply the drops, set `setGeneratePendingDrop` to the version that
+contains the pending drops:
+
+```java
+migration.setVersion("1.3");
+migration.setName("drop-pending-from-1.1");
+migration.setGeneratePendingDrop("1.1");  // apply drops recorded in version 1.1
+migration.generateMigration();
+```
+
+### Custom dbSchema
+
+If the project uses a named Postgres schema (set via `ebean.dbSchema` in
+`application.properties`), no additional configuration is needed in
+`GenerateDbMigration` — Ebean picks up the schema from the application config
+automatically when running in offline mode.
+
+```properties
+# application.properties
+ebean.dbSchema=myschema
+```
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+| Symptom | Likely cause | Fix |
+|---------|-------------|-----|
+| `no changes detected - no migration written` | Entity beans unchanged since last migration | Make entity bean changes first, then re-run |
+| `DbMigration - Pending un-applied drops` | A previous migration has drops not yet applied | Either suppress with `setStrictMode(false)` or apply drops with `setGeneratePendingDrop(...)` |
+| Generated SQL is empty or wrong | Wrong working directory path | Set `setPathToResources(...)` to the correct module-relative path |
+| `ClassNotFoundException` for entity classes | Test classpath not including main classes | Ensure `exec.classpathScope=test` or run via IDE with test classpath |
+| Migrations not running on startup | Property key wrong or `ebean-migration` missing | Verify `ebean[.name].migration.run=true` and that `ebean-migration` is on the classpath |

+# Guide: Add Ebean ORM (PostgreSQL) to an Existing Maven Project — Step 2: Database Configuration
+
+## Purpose
+
+This guide provides step-by-step instructions for configuring an Ebean `Database` bean
+using **Avaje Inject** (`@Factory` / `@Bean`), backed by a PostgreSQL datasource built
+with Ebean's `DataSourceBuilder`. Follow every step in order. This is Step 2 of 2.
+
+---
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- **Step 1 complete**: `pom.xml` already includes `ebean-postgres`, `ebean-maven-plugin`,
+  and `querybean-generator` (see `add-ebean-postgres-maven-pom.md`)
+- **Avaje Inject** is on the classpath (e.g. `io.avaje:avaje-inject`)
+- A configuration source is available at runtime (e.g. `avaje-config` reading
+  `application.yml` or environment variables)
+- The following configuration keys are resolvable at runtime (adapt names to your project):
+  | Key | Description |
+  |-----|-------------|
+  | `db_url` | JDBC URL for the master/write connection |
+  | `db_user` | Database username |
+  | `db_pass` | Database password |
+  | `db_master_min_connections` | Minimum pool size (default: 1) |
+  | `db_master_initial_connections` | Initial pool size at startup — set high to pre-warm on pod start (see K8s note below) |
+  | `db_master_max_connections` | Maximum pool size (default: 200) |
+
+---
+
+## Step 1 — Locate or create the `@Factory` class
+
+Look for an existing Avaje Inject `@Factory`-annotated class in the project
+(often named `AppConfig`, `DatabaseConfig`, or similar). If one exists, add the new
+`@Bean` method to it. If none exists, create one:
+
+```java
+package com.example.configuration;
+
+import io.avaje.inject.Bean;
+import io.avaje.inject.Factory;
+
+@Factory
+class DatabaseConfig {
+    // beans will be added in the steps below
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Step 2 — Add the `Database` bean method (minimal — master datasource only)
+
+Add the following `@Bean` method to the `@Factory` class. This creates an Ebean
+`Database` backed by a single master (read-write) PostgreSQL datasource.
+
+```java
+import io.ebean.Database;
+import io.ebean.datasource.DataSourceBuilder;
+
+@Bean
+Database database() {
+    var dataSource = DataSourceBuilder.create()
+        .url(/* resolve from config, e.g.: */ Config.get("db_url"))
+        .username(Config.get("db_user"))
+        .password(Config.get("db_pass"))
+        .driver("org.postgresql.Driver")
+        .schema("myschema")                    // set to your target schema
+        .applicationName("my-app")             // visible in pg_stat_activity
+        .minConnections(Config.getInt("db_master_min_connections", 1))
+        .initialConnections(Config.getInt("db_master_initial_connections", 10))
+        .maxConnections(Config.getInt("db_master_max_connections", 200));
+
+    return Database.builder()
+        .name("db")                            // logical name for this Database instance
+        .dataSourceBuilder(dataSource)
+        .build();
+}
+```
+
+### Field guidance
+
+| Field | Notes |
+|-------|-------|
+| `url` | Full JDBC URL, e.g. `jdbc:postgresql://host:5432/dbname` |
+| `schema` | The Postgres schema Ebean should use (omit if using `public`) |
+| `applicationName` | Shown in `pg_stat_activity.application_name`; helps with DB-side diagnostics |
+| `name("db")` | Logical Ebean database name; relevant if multiple Database instances exist |
+| `minConnections` | Connections kept open at all times; pool will not shrink below this |
+| `initialConnections` | Connections opened at startup; see K8s warm-up note below |
+| `maxConnections` | Hard upper limit on concurrent connections |
+
+### Connection pool sizing for Kubernetes (and similar orchestrated environments)
+
+When a pod starts in Kubernetes it will receive live traffic as soon as it passes
+readiness checks — often before the connection pool has had a chance to grow to handle
+the load. This can cause latency spikes on the first wave of requests while the pool
+expands one connection at a time.
+
+Use `initialConnections` to **pre-warm the pool at startup** so it is already sized
+for peak load when the pod goes live:
+
+```
+minConnections:     2    ← floor; pool will shrink back here when idle
+initialConnections: 20   ← opened at pod start, before first request arrives
+maxConnections:     50   ← hard ceiling
+```
+
+The lifecycle is:
+1. **Pod starts** — pool opens `initialConnections` connections immediately.
+2. **Pod receives traffic** — pool is already at capacity; no growth latency.
+3. **Traffic drops** — idle connections are closed; pool trims back toward `minConnections`.
+4. **Next traffic spike** — pool grows again up to `maxConnections` on demand.
+
+Set `initialConnections` to a value high enough that the pool does not need to grow
+during the first minute of live traffic. A common starting point is 50–75% of
+`maxConnections`.
+
+---
+
+## Step 3 — Inject configuration via a constructor or config helper (recommended)
+
+Rather than calling `Config.get(...)` inline, inject a typed config helper or the
+Avaje `Configuration` bean if one is available. This makes the factory testable and
+keeps the wiring explicit. For example:
+
+```java
+@Bean
+Database database(Configuration config) {
+    String url  = config.get("db_url");
+    String user = config.get("db_user");
+    String pass = config.get("db_pass");
+    int    min  = config.getInt("db_master_min_connections", 1);
+    int    init = config.getInt("db_master_initial_connections", 10);
+    int    max  = config.getInt("db_master_max_connections", 200);
+
+    var dataSource = DataSourceBuilder.create()
+        .url(url)
+        .username(user)
+        .password(pass)
+        .driver("org.postgresql.Driver")
+        .schema("myschema")
+        .applicationName("my-app")
+        .minConnections(min)
+        .initialConnections(init)
+        .maxConnections(max);
+
+    return Database.builder()
+        .name("db")
+        .dataSourceBuilder(dataSource)
+        .skipDataSourceCheck(true)
+        .build();
+}
+```
+
+If the project has a dedicated config-wrapper class (a `@Component` that reads config
+keys), accept it as a parameter instead of `Configuration`.
+
+---
+
+## Step 4 (Optional) — Add a read-only datasource
+
+For production services that have a separate read-replica, add a second
+`DataSourceBuilder` for read-only queries and wire it via
+`readOnlyDataSourceBuilder(...)`. The read-only datasource:
+
+- Uses `readOnly(true)` and `autoCommit(true)` (Ebean routes read queries there automatically)
+- Typically has a higher max connection count than the master
+- Benefits from a prepared-statement cache (`pstmtCacheSize`)
+
+```java
+@Bean
+Database database(Configuration config) {
+    String masterUrl   = config.get("db_url");
+    String readOnlyUrl = config.get("db_url_readonly");
+    String user        = config.get("db_user");
+    String pass        = config.get("db_pass");
+
+    var masterDataSource = buildDataSource(user, pass)
+        .url(masterUrl)
+        .minConnections(config.getInt("db_master_min_connections", 1))
+        .initialConnections(config.getInt("db_master_initial_connections", 10))
+        .maxConnections(config.getInt("db_master_max_connections", 50));
+
+    var readOnlyDataSource = buildDataSource(user, pass)
+        .url(readOnlyUrl)
+        .readOnly(true)
+        .autoCommit(true)
+        .pstmtCacheSize(250)          // cache up to 250 prepared statements per connection
+        .maxInactiveTimeSecs(600)     // close idle connections after 10 minutes
+        .minConnections(config.getInt("db_readonly_min_connections", 2))
+        .initialConnections(config.getInt("db_readonly_initial_connections", 10))
+        .maxConnections(config.getInt("db_readonly_max_connections", 200));
+
+    return Database.builder()
+        .name("db")
+        .dataSourceBuilder(masterDataSource)
+        .readOnlyDataSourceBuilder(readOnlyDataSource)
+        .build();
+}
+
+private static DataSourceBuilder buildDataSource(String user, String pass) {
+    return DataSourceBuilder.create()
+        .username(user)
+        .password(pass)
+        .driver("org.postgresql.Driver")
+        .schema("myschema")
+        .applicationName("my-app")
+        .addProperty("prepareThreshold", "2");   // PostgreSQL: server-side prepared statements
+}
+```
+
+### Additional configuration keys for the read-only datasource
+
+| Key | Description | Default |
+|-----|-------------|---------|
+| `db_url_readonly` | JDBC URL for the read replica | — |
+| `db_master_initial_connections` | Initial master pool size at startup | 10 |
+| `db_readonly_min_connections` | Minimum pool size | 2 |
+| `db_readonly_initial_connections` | Initial pool size at startup | same as min |
+| `db_readonly_max_connections` | Maximum pool size | 20 |
+
+---
+
+## Step 5 (Optional) — Enable the migration runner
+
+If the project uses Ebean's built-in DB migration runner to apply SQL migrations on
+startup, enable it on the `DatabaseBuilder`:
+
+```java
+return Database.builder()
+    .name("db")
+    .dataSourceBuilder(dataSource)
+    .runMigration(true)          // run pending migrations on startup
+    .build();
+```
+
+This is equivalent to setting `ebean.migration.run=true` in `application.properties`
+but is preferred because it keeps all database configuration in one place. To make it
+conditional (e.g. only in non-production environments):
+
+```java
+.runMigration(config.getBoolean("db.runMigrations", false))
+```
+
+See the DB migration generation guide (`add-ebean-db-migration-generation.md`) for
+full details on generating and managing migration files.
+
+---

+validation best practices, see the [ebean-datasource guides](https://github.com/ebean-orm/ebean-datasource/tree/master/docs/guides/):

+
+## Verification
+
+1. Start the application (or run `mvn test -pl <your-module>`).
+2. Look for log output similar to:
+
+   ```
+   INFO  o.a.datasource.pool.ConnectionPool - DataSourcePool [db] autoCommit[false] min[1] max[5]
+   INFO  io.ebean.internal.DefaultContainer - DatabasePlatform name:db platform:postgres
+   ```
+
+3. If you see `DataSourcePool` and `DatabasePlatform` log lines, Ebean is connected and
+   the database bean is wired correctly.

+# Guide: Add Ebean ORM (PostgreSQL) to an Existing Maven Project — Step 1: POM Setup
+
+## Purpose
+
+This guide provides step-by-step instructions for modifying an existing Maven `pom.xml`
+to add Ebean ORM with PostgreSQL support. Follow every step in order. This is Step 1 of 2.
+
+---
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- An existing Maven project (`pom.xml` already exists)
+- Java 11 or higher
+- The project does **not** yet include any Ebean dependencies
+
+---
+
+## Step 1 — Define the Ebean version property
+
+Open the module's `pom.xml` (the one that will use Ebean directly, i.e. the module
+containing the database configuration and entity classes).
+
+Inside the `<properties>` block, add the `ebean.version` property if it does not
+already exist:
+
+```xml
+<properties>
+    <!-- add this line; use latest stable from https://github.com/ebean-orm/ebean/releases -->
+    <ebean.version>17.2.0</ebean.version>
+</properties>
+```
+
+> If the project has a parent POM that already defines `ebean.version`, skip this step.
+
+---
+
+## Step 2 — Add the PostgreSQL JDBC driver dependency
+
+Inside the `<dependencies>` block, add the PostgreSQL JDBC driver:
+
+```xml
+<dependency>
+    <groupId>org.postgresql</groupId>
+    <artifactId>postgresql</artifactId>
+    <version>42.7.8</version>
+</dependency>
+```
+
+> Check [Maven Central](https://central.sonatype.com/artifact/org.postgresql/postgresql)
+> for the latest version. If the parent POM manages the PostgreSQL version, omit the
+> `<version>` tag.
+
+---
+
+## Step 3 — Add the Ebean PostgreSQL platform dependency
+
+Inside the `<dependencies>` block, add the Ebean Postgres platform dependency:
+
+```xml
+<dependency>
+    <groupId>io.ebean</groupId>
+    <artifactId>ebean-postgres</artifactId>
+    <version>${ebean.version}</version>
+</dependency>
+```
+
+This single artifact pulls in the Ebean core, the datasource connection pool
+(`ebean-datasource`), and all Postgres-specific support.
+
+---
+
+## Step 4 — Add the ebean-test dependency (test scope)
+
+`ebean-test` configures Ebean for tests and enables automatic Docker container management
+for Postgres test instances:
+
+```xml
+<!-- test dependencies -->
+<dependency>
+    <groupId>io.ebean</groupId>
+    <artifactId>ebean-test</artifactId>
+    <version>${ebean.version}</version>
+    <scope>test</scope>
+</dependency>
+```
+
+---
+
+## Step 5 — Add the ebean-maven-plugin (bytecode enhancement)
+
+Ebean requires bytecode enhancement to provide dirty-checking and lazy-loading.
+The `ebean-maven-plugin` performs this enhancement at build time.
+
+Inside the `<build><plugins>` block, add:
+
+```xml
+<plugin> <!-- perform ebean enhancement -->
+    <groupId>io.ebean</groupId>
+    <artifactId>ebean-maven-plugin</artifactId>
+    <version>${ebean.version}</version>
+    <extensions>true</extensions>
+</plugin>
+```
+
+---
+
+## Step 6 — Add the querybean-generator annotation processor
+
+The `querybean-generator` annotation processor generates type-safe query bean classes
+at compile time. It must be registered as an `annotationProcessorPath` inside
+`maven-compiler-plugin`.
+
+### Case A — No existing `maven-compiler-plugin` configuration
+
+Add the full plugin entry to `<build><plugins>`:
+
+```xml
+<plugin>
+    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
+    <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
+    <version>3.15.0</version>
+    <configuration>
+        <annotationProcessorPaths>
+            <path> <!-- generate ebean query beans -->
+                <groupId>io.ebean</groupId>
+                <artifactId>querybean-generator</artifactId>
+                <version>${ebean.version}</version>
+            </path>
+        </annotationProcessorPaths>
+    </configuration>
+</plugin>
+```
+
+### Case B — `maven-compiler-plugin` already exists with `<annotationProcessorPaths>`
+
+Locate the existing `<annotationProcessorPaths>` block inside the existing
+`maven-compiler-plugin` entry and add the new `<path>` inside it. Do **not** add a
+second `<configuration>` block or a second `<annotationProcessorPaths>` block.
+
+Example — if the existing block already has a path for, say, `avaje-nima-generator`:
+
+```xml
+<annotationProcessorPaths>
+    <path>
+        <groupId>io.avaje</groupId>
+        <artifactId>avaje-nima-generator</artifactId>
+        <version>${avaje-nima.version}</version>
+    </path>
+    <!-- ADD the new path here, inside the existing block -->
+    <path>
+        <groupId>io.ebean</groupId>
+        <artifactId>querybean-generator</artifactId>
+        <version>${ebean.version}</version>
+    </path>
+</annotationProcessorPaths>
+```
+
+---
+
+## Verification
+
+Run the following to confirm the POM is valid and the project compiles:
+
+```bash
+mvn compile -pl <your-module-name>
+```
+
+Expected result: `BUILD SUCCESS` with no errors from Ebean or the annotation processor.

+# Guide: Add Ebean ORM (PostgreSQL) to an Existing Maven Project — Step 3: Test Container Setup
+
+## Purpose
+
+This guide provides step-by-step instructions for setting up a PostgreSQL Docker
+container for tests using `ebean-test-containers`, exposing an `io.ebean.Database`
+bean via an Avaje Inject `@TestScope @Factory` class. This is Step 3 of 3.
+
+Two variants are covered:
+- **Variant A** — plain PostgreSQL
+- **Variant B** — PostgreSQL with PostGIS extension
+
+---
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- **Step 1 complete**: `pom.xml` includes `ebean-postgres`, `ebean-maven-plugin`,
+  `querybean-generator`, and **`ebean-test`** as a test-scoped dependency
+  (see `add-ebean-postgres-maven-pom.md`)
+- **Step 2 complete**: A production `Database` bean exists (see `add-ebean-postgres-database-config.md`)
+- **Avaje Inject** is on the classpath with test support (`io.avaje:avaje-inject-test`)
+- **Docker** is installed and running on the developer machine
+
+---
+
+## Overview: Declarative vs Programmatic approach
+
+`ebean-test` supports two ways to configure the test database:
+
+| Approach | How | Best for |
+|----------|-----|---------|
+| **Declarative** | `src/test/resources/application-test.yaml` | Simple projects with no DI, no image mirrors |
+| **Programmatic** | `@TestScope @Factory` class | Avaje Inject tests, private image mirrors (ECR), more control |
+
+This guide uses the **programmatic approach** because it integrates naturally with
+Avaje Inject, allows a private mirror to be specified (useful in CI with ECR or similar),
+and makes the `Database` injectable into tests.
+
+---
+
+## Step 1 — Verify ebean-test is a test dependency
+
+Confirm the following is present in `pom.xml` (added in Step 1):
+
+```xml
+<dependency>
+    <groupId>io.ebean</groupId>
+    <artifactId>ebean-test</artifactId>
+    <version>${ebean.version}</version>
+    <scope>test</scope>
+</dependency>
+```
+
+`ebean-test` transitively brings in `ebean-test-containers` which provides
+`PostgresContainer` and `PostgisContainer`.
+
+---
+
+## Step 2 — Create a `@TestScope @Factory` class
+
+Create a new class in the test source tree (e.g., `src/test/java/.../testconfig/TestConfiguration.java`).
+Annotate it with `@TestScope` and `@Factory` so Avaje Inject uses it only in tests.
+
+```java
+package com.example.testconfig;
+
+import io.avaje.inject.Bean;
+import io.avaje.inject.Factory;
+import io.avaje.inject.test.TestScope;
+import io.ebean.Database;
+
+@TestScope
+@Factory
+class TestConfiguration {
+    // bean methods added in the steps below
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Step 3 — Add a container bean and a Database bean
+
+### Variant A — Plain PostgreSQL
+
+```java
+import io.ebean.test.containers.PostgresContainer;
+
+@TestScope
+@Factory
+class TestConfiguration {
+
+    @Bean
+    PostgresContainer postgres() {
+        return PostgresContainer.builder("17")   // Postgres image version
+            .dbName("my_app")                    // database to create inside the container
+            .build()
+            .start();
+    }
+
+    @Bean
+    Database database(PostgresContainer container) {
+        return container.ebean()
+            .builder()
+            .build();
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### Variant B — PostGIS (PostgreSQL + PostGIS extension)
+
+Use `PostgisContainer` instead of `PostgresContainer`. The default image is
+`ghcr.io/baosystems/postgis:{version}` and the extensions `hstore`, `pgcrypto`,
+and `postgis` are installed automatically.
+
+```java
+import io.ebean.test.containers.PostgisContainer;
+
+@TestScope
+@Factory
+class TestConfiguration {
+
+    @Bean
+    PostgisContainer postgres() {
+        return PostgisContainer.builder("17")    // PostGIS image version (Postgres 17)
+            .dbName("my_app")
+            .build()
+            .start();
+    }
+
+    @Bean
+    Database database(PostgisContainer container) {
+        return container.ebean()
+            .builder()
+            .build();
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### Key differences from Variant A
+
+| | PostgresContainer | PostgisContainer |
+|---|---|---|
+| Docker image | `postgres:{version}` | `ghcr.io/baosystems/postgis:{version}` |
+| Default extensions | `hstore, pgcrypto` | `hstore, pgcrypto, postgis` |
+| Default port | 6432 | 6432 |
+| Optional LW mode | — | `.useLW(true)` (see Optional section) |
+
+---
+
+## Step 4 — Write a test
+
+Annotate the test class with `@InjectTest` and inject `Database` with `@Inject`:
+
+```java
+package com.example.testconfig;
+
+import io.avaje.inject.test.InjectTest;
+import io.ebean.Database;
+import jakarta.inject.Inject;
+import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
+
+import static org.assertj.core.api.Assertions.assertThat;
+
+@InjectTest
+class DatabaseTest {
+
+    @Inject
+    Database database;
+
+    @Test
+    void database_isAvailable() {
+        assertThat(database).isNotNull();
+    }
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Verification
+
+Run the tests:
+
+```bash
+mvn test -pl <your-module>
+```
+
+Expected log output confirming the container started and Ebean connected:
+
+```
+INFO  Container ut_postgres running with port:6432 ...
+INFO  connectivity confirmed for ut_postgres
+INFO  DataSourcePool [my_app] autoCommit[false] ...
+INFO  DatabasePlatform name:my_app platform:postgres
+INFO  Executing db-create-all.sql - ...
+```
+
+---
+
+## Optional configurations
+
+### Image mirror (for CI / private registry)
+
+If CI builds pull images from a private registry (e.g., AWS ECR) instead of Docker Hub
+or GitHub Container Registry, specify a mirror. The mirror is **only used in CI** —
+it is ignored on local developer machines (where Docker Hub / GHCR is used directly).
+
+```java
+@Bean
+PostgresContainer postgres() {
+    return PostgresContainer.builder("16")
+        .dbName("my_app")
+        .mirror("123456789.dkr.ecr.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/mirrored")
+        .build()
+        .start();
+}
+```
+
+Alternatively, set the mirror globally via a system property or
+`ebean.test.containers.mirror` in a properties file, avoiding code changes per project.
+
+### Read-only datasource (for tests using read-replica simulation)
+
+Call `.autoReadOnlyDataSource(true)` on the `DatabaseBuilder` to automatically
+create a second read-only datasource pointing at the same container:
+
+```java
+@Bean
+Database database(PostgresContainer container) {
+    return container.ebean()
+        .builder()
+        .autoReadOnlyDataSource(true)   // test read-only queries against same container
+        .build();
+}
+```
+
+### Dump metrics on shutdown
+
+Useful for performance analysis during test runs:
+
+```java
+@Bean
+Database database(PostgresContainer container) {
+    return container.ebean()
+        .builder()
+        .dumpMetricsOnShutdown(true)
+        .dumpMetricsOptions("loc,sql,hash")
+        .build();
+}
+```
+
+### PostGIS: LW mode (HexWKB)
+
+For PostGIS with DriverWrapperLW (HexWKB binary geometry encoding), set `.useLW(true)`.
+This switches the JDBC URL prefix to `jdbc:postgresql_lwgis://` and requires the
+`net.postgis:postgis-jdbc` dependency on the test classpath:
+
+```xml
+<!-- add to pom.xml test dependencies when using useLW(true) -->
+<dependency>
+    <groupId>net.postgis</groupId>
+    <artifactId>postgis-jdbc</artifactId>
+    <version>2024.1.0</version>
+    <scope>test</scope>
+</dependency>
+```
+
+```java
+@Bean
+PostgisContainer postgres() {
+    return PostgisContainer.builder("16")
+        .dbName("my_app")
+        .useLW(true)    // use HexWKB + DriverWrapperLW
+        .build()
+        .start();
+}
+```
+
+> **Note**: LW mode is not required for most PostGIS use cases. Only enable it if
+> your entities use binary geometry types (e.g., `net.postgis.jdbc.geometry.Geometry`)
+> that require the `DriverWrapperLW` driver.
+
+---
+
+## Keeping the container running (local development)
+
+By default, `ebean-test` stops the Docker container when tests finish. To keep it
+running between test runs (much faster for local development), create a marker file:
+
+```bash
+mkdir -p ~/.ebean && touch ~/.ebean/ignore-docker-shutdown
+```
+
+On CI servers, omit this file so containers are cleaned up after each build.

+# Guide: Using Lombok with Ebean Entity Beans
+
+## Purpose
+
+This guide explains which Lombok annotations are safe and recommended for Ebean
+entity beans, which ones to avoid, and why. It is written as prescriptive instructions
+for AI agents and developers.
+
+---
+
+## The Core Rule
+
+> **Do NOT use `@Data` on Ebean entity beans.**
+
+Use `@Getter` + `@Setter` instead, with the optional `@Accessors(chain = true)` for
+a fluent setter style.
+
+---
+
+## Why `@Data` is Incompatible with Ebean
+
+`@Data` is a convenience annotation that is equivalent to applying `@Getter`,
+`@Setter`, `@RequiredArgsConstructor`, `@ToString`, and `@EqualsAndHashCode` together.
+Three of those are problematic for Ebean entity beans:
+
+### 1. `@EqualsAndHashCode` (included in `@Data`) — breaks entity identity
+
+`@Data` generates `hashCode()` and `equals()` based on all non-static, non-transient
+fields. Ebean entity beans have identity semantics — two references to the same database
+row should be considered equal based on their `@Id` value, not field-by-field comparison.
+
+Problems caused:
+- Inconsistent `hashCode` before and after persist (the `@Id` field is `0` on a new
+  entity, then changes after insert — violating the `hashCode` contract for collections)
+- Entities placed in a `Set` or `HashMap` before saving will be unfindable after saving
+- Ebean's internal identity map and dirty checking can be confused
+
+### 2. `@ToString` (included in `@Data`) — triggers unexpected lazy loading
+
+`@Data` generates a `toString()` that accesses **all** fields, including
+`@OneToMany` and `@ManyToOne` associations. Accessing an unloaded lazy association
+outside of a transaction triggers a `LazyInitializationException` or fires an unexpected
+SQL query, which can:
+- Cause subtle bugs in logging statements
+- Trigger N+1 queries in test output or debug logging
+- Fail with an exception if no active transaction exists
+
+### 3. `@RequiredArgsConstructor` (included in `@Data`) — unnecessary for Ebean
+
+Ebean does not require a default constructor — it can construct entity instances without
+one. `@RequiredArgsConstructor` therefore adds nothing useful to entity beans.
+
+---
+
+## Recommended Annotation Set
+
+Use exactly these three Lombok annotations on every Ebean entity bean:
+
+```java
+@Entity
+@Getter
+@Setter
+@Accessors(chain = true)
+@Table(name = "my_table")
+public class MyEntity {
+    // ...
+}
+```
+
+| Annotation | Purpose |
+|---|---|
+| `@Getter` | Generates `getFoo()` / `isFoo()` accessor methods |
+| `@Setter` | Generates `setFoo(value)` mutator methods; Ebean enhancement intercepts these for dirty tracking |
+| `@Accessors(chain = true)` | Makes setters return `this`, enabling fluent/builder-style property setting |
+
+---
+
+## `@Accessors(chain = true)` — Fluent Setter Style
+
+With `chain = true`, setters return `this` instead of `void`, allowing method chaining:
+
+```java
+// without chain = true (void setters)
+CMachine machine = new CMachine();
+machine.setMake("Toyota");
+machine.setModel("Hilux");
+machine.setStatus("active");
+
+// with @Accessors(chain = true)
+CMachine machine = new CMachine()
+    .setMake("Toyota")
+    .setModel("Hilux")
+    .setStatus("active");
+```
+
+This is particularly useful when building test data:
+
+```java
+CMachine machine = new CMachine()
+    .setGid(UUID.randomUUID())
+    .setMachineType("HV")
+    .setStatus("active")
+    .setMake("Komatsu")
+    .setModel("PC200");
+
+database.save(machine);
+```
+
+Ebean's bytecode enhancement is fully compatible with chained setters — the
+enhancement intercepts each `setFoo()` call to record which fields have been modified
+(dirty checking), regardless of whether the setter returns `void` or `this`.
+
+---
+
+## `@Accessors(fluent = true)` — also compatible
+
+`@Accessors(fluent = true)` removes the `get`/`set`/`is` prefix, generating `name()`
+(getter) and `name(value)` (setter) instead of `getName()` and `setName(value)`.
+
+Ebean does **not** require JavaBeans naming conventions — it can work with any accessor
+method style, including fluent accessors with no prefix. `@Accessors(fluent = true)` is
+therefore compatible with Ebean.
+
+`@Accessors(chain = true)` is the more common choice in practice (it keeps the familiar
+`get`/`set` prefix while adding method chaining), but `fluent = true` is a valid
+alternative if that style is preferred consistently across the codebase.
+
+---
+
+## Full Entity Bean Example
+
+```java
+package com.example.repository.data;
+
+import io.ebean.annotation.WhenCreated;
+import io.ebean.annotation.WhenModified;
+import jakarta.persistence.*;
+import lombok.Getter;
+import lombok.Setter;
+import lombok.experimental.Accessors;
+
+import java.time.Instant;
+import java.util.List;
+import java.util.UUID;
+
+@Entity
+@Getter
+@Setter
+@Accessors(chain = true)
+@Table(name = "machine")
+public class CMachine {
+
+    @Id
+    private long id;
+
+    @Version
+    private int version;
+
+    @Column(nullable = false, unique = true)
+    private UUID gid;
+
+    @Column(nullable = false, length = 10)
+    private String machineType;
+
+    @Column(length = 200)
+    private String make;
+
+    @Column(length = 200)
+    private String model;
+
+    @WhenCreated
+    private Instant created;
+
+    @WhenModified
+    private Instant lastModified;
+}

+## Summary: Lombok Annotations and Ebean Compatibility
+
+| Lombok Annotation | Compatible? | Notes                                                                                                                                                             |
+|---|---|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+| `@Getter` | ✅ Safe | Use on every entity bean                                                                                                                                          |
+| `@Setter` | ✅ Safe | Use on every entity bean; enhancement intercepts these                                                                                                            |
+| `@Accessors(chain = true)` | ✅ Safe | Recommended for fluent construction style                                                                                                                         |
+| `@ToString` | ❌ Avoid | Ebean does a better job and handles recursion                                                                                                                     |
+| `@EqualsAndHashCode` | ❌ Avoid | Breaks entity identity and `@Id`-based equality                                                                                                                   |
+| `@Data` | ❌ Avoid | Includes `@EqualsAndHashCode` and `@ToString` — both problematic                                                                                                  |
+| `@Value` | ❌ Avoid | Makes fields final — incompatible with Ebean's field-level bytecode enhancement                                                                                   |
+| `@Accessors(fluent = true)` | ✅ Safe | Removes `get`/`set` prefix — Ebean does not require JavaBeans naming conventions and works with any accessor style                                                |
+| `@Builder` | ⚠️ Careful | Usable on non-entity helper/factory classes; on entity beans it requires a no-arg constructor alongside it and offers no advantage over `@Accessors(chain = true)` |
+
+---
+
+## Relationship with Ebean Bytecode Enhancement
+
+Ebean's bytecode enhancement (applied by `ebean-maven-plugin` at build time) modifies
+the `setXxx()` methods of entity beans to:
+1. Mark the field as dirty (changed) so only modified fields are included in UPDATE statements
+2. Support lazy loading of associations when a getter is called on an unloaded field
+
+For this to work correctly, Ebean needs:
+- Accessor methods for each persistent field (any naming style is fine — `getFoo()`, `foo()`, or no accessors at all; Ebean can also access fields directly)
+- No override of `hashCode()` / `equals()` that would interfere with the identity map — which means **no `@Data` or `@EqualsAndHashCode`**
