ManyToMany relationship causes exceeding maximum allowed document nesting depth #26378

Closed RafaelMonteiroExaud closed 2 months ago

RafaelMonteiroExaud commented 3 months ago
Overview of the issue

I have two entities with a ManyToMany relationship, defined like this in the JDL:

relationship ManyToMany {
  Post{tag(name)} to Tag{post}
}

If I create a Post, and then a Tag, and associate the Tag with the Post, or vice versa (Tag created first, and Post associated with Tag), then the frontend will load indefinitely their lists. Other entities still work fine, just these two are totally unusable. No ability to create new ones, view existing or modify them. In the dev console in the browser, the following error is thrown when viewing either of their pages:

Document nesting depth (1001) exceeds the maximum allowed (1000, from `StreamWriteConstraints.getMaxNestingDepth()`) (through reference chain: 
java.util.ArrayList[0]->com.okta.developer.blog.domain.Post["tags"]->java.util.LinkedHashSet[0]->com.okta.developer.blog.domain.Tag["posts"]
->java.util.LinkedHashSet[0]->com.okta.developer.blog.domain.Post["tags"]...

This is repeated hundreds of times more in the error.

Motivation for or Use Case

I'm investigating JHipster for use in a project, and was faced with this problem, which seems quite a severe one, as Many to Many relationships are to be used in the project, which makes it unusable.

Reproduce the error

When following the JHipster Mini Book, in the microservices section a JDL is provided. I have slightly modified it (mostly to fix User relationship since 8.0 and removed the Kubernetes part), and ran the following command to create the project: jhipster jdl apps.jdl --monorepository --workspaces

Then the following commands to deploy it Docker locally:

npm run java:docker:arm64
cd docker-compose
docker stop $(docker ps -a -q);
docker compose up -d

And finally, in the gateway folder run npm run start to get the frontend on port 9000. After, just login as admin, and try to create a Tag, and after that a Post, and associate that Post with that Tag on the creation process. After this, both their pages will stop loading correctly.
