Disable auditable fields on query basis

[mp911de]

Auditing fields are updated in AuditingEntityCallback which is a BeforeConvertCallback. Using a BeanPostProcessor (or registering infrastructure beans yourself), you could wrap AuditingEntityCallback in your own callback and apply auditing based on the object/collection yourself.

Alternatively, you can convert the object into Document using MongoConverter and insert the resulting Document via MongoTemplate.insert(…) to bypass any model-specific actions that would be otherwise in place if you passed the original object into MongoTemplate.insert(…).

Let me know whether this helps.

Thanks for the reply!
I honestly do not view implementing our own BeanPostPrcoessor and callback wrapping as an easy solution. That is doable, I understand, but it seems that framework can hide this complexity.
Converting an entity to a Document is not that great since we seem to lose other things like callbacks for given entity (not for Document), version inspection etc.

So, I personally think that this is more like a workaround, but not a solution.

We never intended to have conditional auditing hence there's no other way to make auditing conditional. As we do not plan on adding such a feature, I'm closing the ticket.
