constructorAnnotations

The additional annotations to be placed on generated constructors.

A repository has one constructor, so most containers inject through it without being told. This is for the ones that want to be told, or for a project whose style is to say so anyway — jakarta.inject.Inject, org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired.

Configuration Options

Option: ‘jakarta.inject.Inject’

Marks the constructor for injection explicitly:

package com.example.persistence;

import jakarta.inject.Inject;

public final class TenantRepository {

    @Inject
    public TenantRepository(final DataSource dataSource) {
        // ... rest of generated code
    }

}

Gradle

In order to use YoSQL together with Gradle , take a look at the tooling documentation for Gradle . The constructorAnnotations setting can be configured using Gradle in Kotlin syntax like this:

plugins {
  java
  id("wtf.metio.yosql") version "2026.8.8"
}

yosql {
  annotations {
    constructorAnnotations.set(configValue)
  }
}

or in Groovy syntax like this:

plugins {
  id "java"
  id "wtf.metio.yosql" version "2026.8.8"
}

yosql {
  annotations {
    constructorAnnotations = configValue
  }
}

Maven

In order to use YoSQL together with Maven , take a look at the tooling documentation for Maven . The constructorAnnotations setting can be configured using Maven like this:

<build>
  <plugins>
    <plugin>
      <groupId>wtf.metio.yosql.tooling</groupId>
      <artifactId>yosql-tooling-maven</artifactId>
      <version>2026.8.8</version>
      <configuration>
        <annotations>
          <constructorAnnotations>configValue</constructorAnnotations>
        </annotations>
      </configuration>
    </plugin>
  </plugins>
</build>
