Hibernate Search + Spring Boot: java.lang.IllegalStateException: No transactional EntityManager available

Question

I'm trying to setup Hibernate Search in my Spring Boot application following this tutorial. The problem is that I'm getting an error on startup:

I do not understand what causes this problem.

The relevant code:

@SpringBootApplication
@EnableJpaRepositories(basePackages = "mz.api.spring.repository")
@EntityScan(basePackages = "mz.api.hibernate.model")
@EnableTransactionManagement
public class Application {

    private final static Logger LOGGER = LogManager.getLogger(Application.class);

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        LOGGER.debug("Running application ..");
        SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
    }

}

..

@Service 
public class HibernateSearchService {

    private final EntityManager entityManager;

    @Autowired
    public HibernateSearchService(EntityManager entityManager) {
        this.entityManager = entityManager;
    }

    public void initializeHibernateSearch() {

        try {
            FullTextEntityManager fullTextEntityManager = getFullTextEntityManager(this.entityManager);
            fullTextEntityManager.createIndexer().startAndWait();
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }    
    }

}

..

@Configuration
public class HibernateSearchConfig {

    private final EntityManager entityManager;

    @Autowired
    public HibernateSearchConfig(EntityManager entityManager) {
        this.entityManager = entityManager;
    }


    @Bean
    HibernateSearchService hibernateSearchService() {
        HibernateSearchService hibernateSearchService = new HibernateSearchService(this.entityManager);
        hibernateSearchService.initializeHibernateSearch();
        return hibernateSearchService;
    }

}

I managed to get this to work by Autowiring an EntityManagerFactory instead. Then creating an EntityManager with the EntityManagerFactory.

@Service
public class HibernateSearchService {

    private final EntityManager entityManager;

    @Autowired
    public HibernateSearchService(final EntityManagerFactory entityManagerFactory) {
        this.entityManager = entityManagerFactory.createEntityManager();
    }

    @PostConstruct
    public void initializeHibernateSearch() {

        try {
            FullTextEntityManager fullTextEntityManager = Search.getFullTextEntityManager(entityManager);
            fullTextEntityManager.createIndexer().startAndWait();
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

    }
