Class Metadata

java.lang.Object
com.complexible.stardog.metadata.Metadata
All Implemented Interfaces:
Copyable<Metadata>, com.complexible.stardog.metadata.MetadataLookup, Iterable<MetaProperty<Object>>

public final class Metadata extends Object implements com.complexible.stardog.metadata.MetadataLookup, Copyable<Metadata>, Iterable<MetaProperty<Object>>
Mapping from Stardog meta properties to values. Similar to a standard Map but with some key differences. This class does not allow null options to be used as keys. The get(MetaProperty) function may return a value even though an option is not contained in the map explicitly. In such cases the default value of the option is returned.

    Removes all of the properties from this metadata.
    <V> boolean
    Returns true if this collection contains an explicit value for the specified option.
    Creates a copy of the StardogOptions instance.
    static Metadata
    Creates a new empty mutable StardogOptions instance.
    static Metadata
    Creates a new empty immutable StardogOptions instance.
    boolean
    <V> V
    get(MetaProperty<V> option)
    Returns the value associated with the given property or the default value of the property if there is no associated value.
    <V> V
    get(MetaProperty<V> option, OptionFunction theDefaultValues)
    Returns the value associated with the given property in this metadata, if that does not exist looks up for a value in the given theDefaultProperties and iof that does not exist either, return the default value of the property.
    int
    Creates an immutable shallow copy of the StardogOptions instance.
    static <V> Metadata
    of(MetaProperty<V> key, V value)
    Creates an immutable metadata instance with the given single mapping.
    <V> V
    remove(MetaProperty<V> option)
    Removes any previous value associated with this option.
    set(MetaProperty<V> option, V value)
    Associate the given value with the given option overriding any previous value.
    setAll(Metadata theOtherMap)
    Copies all of the option value mappings from the specified map to this map overriding Sets all the options in the given map the given option overriding any previous value .
    int
    Gets the number of properties in the Metadata.

    • iterator

      @Nonnull public Iterator<MetaProperty<Object>> iterator()
      Specified by:
      iterator in interface Iterable<MetaProperty<Object>>
    • copy

      public Metadata copy()
      Creates a copy of the StardogOptions instance. The copy can be updated freely without affecting this map.
      Specified by:
      copy in interface Copyable<Metadata>
      Returns:
      a copy of the object
    • immutable

      public Metadata immutable()
      Creates an immutable shallow copy of the StardogOptions instance. The result is a shallow copy so updating the original metadata values will affect the immutable copy. If this needs to be avoided aMetadata.copy().immutable() can be used.
      Returns:
      a new map instance that will throw exceptions on modification function
    • empty

      public static Metadata empty()
      Creates a new empty immutable StardogOptions instance.
    • of

      public static <V> Metadata of(MetaProperty<V> key, V value)
      Creates an immutable metadata instance with the given single mapping.
    • create

      public static Metadata create()
      Creates a new empty mutable StardogOptions instance.
    • contains

      public <V> boolean contains(MetaProperty<V> option)
      Returns true if this collection contains an explicit value for the specified option.
    • get

      public <V> V get(MetaProperty<V> option)
      Returns the value associated with the given property or the default value of the property if there is no associated value. The default value for an option might be null so there are cases this function will return a null value. Must be used with care in autoboxing.
      Specified by:
      get in interface com.complexible.stardog.metadata.MetadataLookup

      • MetadataLookup.is(MetaProperty)
    • get

      public <V> V get(MetaProperty<V> option, OptionFunction theDefaultValues)
      Returns the value associated with the given property in this metadata, if that does not exist looks up for a value in the given theDefaultProperties and iof that does not exist either, return the default value of the property.
    • set

      public <V> Metadata set(MetaProperty<V> option, V value)
      Associate the given value with the given option overriding any previous value.
      Returns:
      a reference to this map to allow method chaining
    • setAll

      public <V> Metadata setAll(Metadata theOtherMap)
      Copies all of the option value mappings from the specified map to this map overriding Sets all the options in the given map the given option overriding any previous value .
      Returns:
      a reference to this map to allow method chaining
    • remove

      public <V> V remove(MetaProperty<V> option)
      Removes any previous value associated with this option.
