Interface DataView

All Known Subinterfaces:
DataContainer
public interface DataView
Represents an object of data represented by a map.

DataViews always exist within a DataContainer and can be used for serialization.

  • Method Details

    • container

      DataContainer container()
      Gets the parent container of this DataView.

      Every DataView will always have a DataContainer.

      For any DataContainer, this will return itself.

      Returns:
      The parent container

    • currentPath

      DataQuery currentPath()
      Gets the current path of this DataView from its root DataContainer.

      For any DataContainer itself, this will return an empty string as it is the root of the path.

      The full path will always include this DataViews name at the end of the path.

      Returns:
      The path of this view originating from the root

    • name

      String name()
      Gets the name of this individual DataView in the path.

      This will always be the final substring of the full path from currentPath().

      Returns:
      The name of this DataView

    • parent

      Optional<DataView> parent()
      Gets the parent DataView of this view. The parent directly contains this view according to the currentPath().

      For any DataContainer, this will return an absent parent.

      Returns:
      The parent data view containing this view

    • keys

      Set<DataQuery> keys(boolean deep)
      Gets a collection containing all keys in this DataView.

      If deep is set to true, then this will contain all the keys within any child DataViews (and their children, etc). These will be in a valid path notation for you to use.

      If deep is set to false, then this will contain only the keys of any direct children, and not their own children.

      Parameters:
      deep - Whether or not to get all children keys
      Returns:
      A set of current keys in this container

    • streamRootKeys

      default Stream<String> streamRootKeys()
      Gets a Stream containing all root keys for this DataView.
      Returns:
      Stream of root keys of this container

    • values

      Map<DataQuery, Object> values(boolean deep)
      Gets a Map containing all keys and their values for this DataView.

      If deep is set to true, then this will contain all the keys and values within any child DataViews (and their children, etc). These keys will be in a valid path notation for you to use.

      If deep is set to false, then this will contain only the keys and values of any direct children, and not their own children.

      Parameters:
      deep - Whether or not to get a deep list of all children or not
      Returns:
      Map of keys and values of this container
