Method Detail

toRequest

@Nonnull
 @Beta
public ODataRequestRead toRequest()

Creates an instance of the ODataRequestRead based on the Entity class.

The following settings are used:

• the endpoint URL
• the entity collection name
• the number of entries to select (top)
• the number of entries to ignore (skip)
• the order direction
• the filters to be applied
• the fields to be selected

Returns:

An initialized ODataRequestRead.

getQueryString

@Nonnull
 @Beta
public String getQueryString()

Return the string representation of the underlying request that is being build by this fluent helper. This includes all query parameters as well as nested queries but not the entity, the service path or other request options like format.

Returns:

The underlying request as query string.

execute

@Nonnull
public List<EntityT> execute(@Nonnull
                                      HttpDestinationProperties destination)

Execute the OData request.

Parameters:

destination - The destination to be used as request target.

Returns:

The generic OData response result.

select

@SafeVarargs
 @Nonnull
public final GetAllRequestBuilder<EntityT> select(@Nonnull
                                                                         Property<EntityT>... fields)

Query modifier to limit which field values of the entity EntityT get fetched and populated. Navigational properties supplied here will be expanded. If this method is called at least once, then only the specified fields will be fetched and populated. If none of the select methods is called, then all fields will be fetched and populated. Calling this multiple times will combine the set(s) of fields of each call.

Parameters:

fields - Properties of EntityT to be selected.

Returns:

This request object with the added selections.

filter

@SafeVarargs
 @Nonnull
public final GetAllRequestBuilder<EntityT> filter(@Nonnull
                                                                         FilterableBoolean<EntityT>... filters)

Filter on properties of EntityT.

Parameters:

filters - Filter expressions to be added to the request.

Returns:

This request object with the added filters.

top

@Nonnull
public GetAllRequestBuilder<EntityT> top(int top)

Limit the number of results of this request.

Parameters:

top - The maximum amount of elements this request shall return.

Returns:

This request with the top parameter set.

skip

@Nonnull
public GetAllRequestBuilder<EntityT> skip(int skip)

Determine the how many first N entities of the result set should be skipped. If this method is never called, then the full list will be returned from the first entity. If this method is called multiple times, then only the value of the last call will be used.

Parameters:

skip - The amount of elements this request will skip.

Returns:

This request with the skip parameter set.

orderBy

@SafeVarargs
 @Nonnull
 @Beta
public final GetAllRequestBuilder<EntityT> orderBy(@Nonnull
                                                                                 FieldOrdering<EntityT>... ordering)

Sort the set of returned entities by non-complex fields.

Parameters:

ordering - Fields to sort by.

Returns:

This request with the orderBy parameter set.

search

@Nonnull
public GetAllRequestBuilder<EntityT> search(@Nonnull
                                                     String search)

Request modifier to return the set of entities that contain the specified value. If this method is never called, then all the accessible entities will be returned.

Parameters:

search - A string value as the search criteria.

Returns:

The same fluent helper with this request modifier applied.

search

@Nonnull
public GetAllRequestBuilder<EntityT> search(@Nonnull
                                                     SearchExpression expression)

Request modifier to return the set of entities corresponding to the specified boolean expression. If this method is never called, then all the accessible entities will be returned.

Parameters:

expression - SearchExpression as the search criteria

Returns:

The same fluent helper with this request modifier applied.

getEntityClass

@Nonnull
protected Class<EntityT> getEntityClass()

Returns a class object of the type this fluent helper works with.

Returns:

A class object of the handled type.

getThis

@Nonnull
protected FluentHelperT getThis()

Get the reference to this instance.

Returns:

The FluentHelper instance.

tryExecute

@Nonnull
public io.vavr.control.Try<ResultT> tryExecute(@Nonnull
                                                        HttpDestinationProperties destination)

Safely execute the OData request.

Parameters:

destination - The destination to be used as request target.

Returns:

The generic OData response result wrapped in a Try block.

withListener

@Nonnull
 @Beta
public FluentHelperT withListener(@Nonnull
                                                  ODataRequestListener listener)

An error handling class that implements the error result handler interface can be attached to this fluent helper. This allows custom logic to be called when an error occurs in the execute method. If this method is not called, then an instance of ODataRequestListener is used. Only one handler can be attached at a time per fluent helper object, so calling this multiple times will replace the handler.

Parameters:

listener - Instance of an error handler class that implements the error result handler interface.

Returns:

The same fluent helper with its error handler set to the provided object.

withHeader

@Nonnull
 @Beta
public FluentHelperT withHeader(@Nonnull
                                                String key,
                                                @Nullable
                                                String value)

Gives the option to specify custom HTTP headers. The returned object allows to specify the requests the headers should be used in.

Parameters:

key - Name of the (first) desired HTTP header parameter.

value - Value of the (first) desired HTTP header parameter.

Returns:

A fluent helper to specify further headers and their intended usage.

withHeaders

@Nonnull
 @Beta
public FluentHelperT withHeaders(@Nonnull
                                                 Map<String,String> map)

Gives the option to specify a map of custom HTTP headers. The returned object allows to specify the requests the headers should be used in.

Parameters:

map - A map of HTTP header key/value pairs.

Returns:

A fluent helper to specify further headers and their intended usage.

withQueryParameter

@Nonnull
 @Beta
public FluentHelperT withQueryParameter(@Nonnull
                                                        String key,
                                                        @Nullable
                                                        String value)

Gives the option to specify custom query parameters for the request.

Note: It is recommended to only use this function for query parameters which are not supported by the VDM by default. Using this function to bypass fluent helper method calls can lead to unsupported response handling. There is no contract on the order or priority of parameters added to the request.

Example: Use the request query option $search to reduce the result set, leaving only entities which match the specified search expression. This feature is supported in protocol OData v4.

 new DefaultBusinessPartnerService().getAllBusinessPartner().withQueryParameter("$search", "Köln OR Cologne")
 

Parameters:

key - Name of the query parameter.

value - Value of the query parameter.

Returns:

The same fluent helper.
