Using JPA to make an IN Query

How to query a database table with an IN statement in JPA.

There comes a time in using JPA with your database that you need to do a query with a list of values for a given field. In order to do this you’ll need to define the IN query as a JPA query. With the @Query annotation, define the column you need to query with the list of parameters. Reference the parameters with the :parametername syntax after the IN keyword.

For a full example see:

public interface MyObjectRepository extends PagingAndSortingRepository<Model, String> {
    @Query("SELECT m FROM MyObject m WHERE  m.type IN :types")
    public List<MyObject> findAllByTypes(List<ObjectType> types);
}

Based on the question at Stackoverflow.

If you have any other ideas on different approaches for this query, comment below.
