Interface TransformFactory

All Known Implementing Classes:

StandardTransformFactory

public interface TransformFactory

Different Transform implementations can be installed in the TransformFactory to be instantiated when needed. The transforms are ordered in a graph-like manner so that all tranforms leading away from a particular model type easily can be located.

Since:

2.0

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
<A,T extends Transform<A,?>> Set<Map.Entry<Class<?>,T>>	allFrom(Class<A> from)	Builds a stream of all transforms that match the specified model.
String	getName()	Returns a unique name of this factory.
<A,B,T extends Transform<A,B>> TransformFactory	install(Class<A> from, Class<B> to, Supplier<T> transformer)	Installs the specified Transform.
default <A,T extends Transform<A,String>> TransformFactory	install(Class<A> from, Supplier<T> transformer)	Installs the specified Transform, assuming that the resulting class is a String.

Method Detail

getName

String getName()

Returns a unique name of this factory. This can be used to identify a particular factory if multiple ones are used in the same generator.

Returns:

the unique name

install

default <A,T extends Transform<A,String>> TransformFactory install(Class<A> from,
                                                                               Supplier<T> transformer)

Installs the specified Transform, assuming that the resulting class is a String.

Type Parameters:

A - the type to transform from

T - the transformer

Parameters:

from - the model

transformer - the view

Returns:

a reference to this

install

<A,B,T extends Transform<A,B>> TransformFactory install(Class<A> from,
                                                                          Class<B> to,
                                                                          Supplier<T> transformer)

Installs the specified Transform.

Type Parameters:

A - the type to transform from

B - the type to transform to

T - the transformer

Parameters:

from - the model class to transform from

to - the model class to transform to

transformer - the view

Returns:

a reference to this

allFrom

<A,T extends Transform<A,?>> Set<Map.Entry<Class<?>,T>> allFrom(Class<A> from)

Builds a stream of all transforms that match the specified model.

Type Parameters:

A - the class to transform from

T - the transformer

Parameters:

from - the model class to transform from

Returns:

a stream of all matching transforms
