N1qlPrimaryIndexed replacement

Question

After update the project to Spring Data Couchbase 4, the annotation N1qlPrimaryIndexed appears as deprecated,

@Repository
@N1qlPrimaryIndexed
public interface HostelRepository extends CouchbaseRepository<Hostel, String> {
}

I would like to know if there is a replacement for it

Answer 1

Ideally, you should not be using @N1qlPrimaryIndexed in production, as it creates under-optimized indexes. As long as you have at least one index per document type, you should fine without it.

On Spring Dara Couchabse 4, we have a new set of annotations for indexing.
