Method Details

getId

public String getId()

Specified by:

getId in interface Identifiable

getNamespace

public String getNamespace()

Description copied from interface: FunctionDefinitionContract

Returns the namespace code of this function definition. All functions have a namespace and this value can never be null or blank. The combination of namespace plus name must be unique within the entire repository of functions.

Specified by:

getNamespace in interface FunctionDefinitionContract

Returns:

the namespace code of this function definition

getName

public String getName()

Description copied from interface: FunctionDefinitionContract

Returns the name of this function definition. All functions have a name and this value can never be null or blank. The combination of namespace plus name must be unique within the entire repository of functions.

Specified by:

getName in interface FunctionDefinitionContract

Returns:

the name of this function definition

getDescription

public String getDescription()

Description copied from interface: FunctionDefinitionContract

Returns the description of this function definition. The description is intended to provide more information about a function and it's appropriate usage. The description is optional.

Specified by:

getDescription in interface FunctionDefinitionContract

Returns:

the description of this function definition

getReturnType

public String getReturnType()

Description copied from interface: FunctionDefinitionContract

Returns the type of the return value of the function defined by this function definition. This can be one of a set of "built-in" data types or a custom data type represented as a fully qualified java class name. All functions must have a return type so this method should never return null or blank.

Specified by:

getReturnType in interface FunctionDefinitionContract

Returns:

the return type of this function definition

getTypeId

public String getTypeId()

Description copied from interface: FunctionDefinitionContract

Returns the id of the KrmsTypeDefinition which defines the actual implementation of this function such that it can be loaded into the engine and executed.

Specified by:

getTypeId in interface FunctionDefinitionContract

Returns:

the type id of this function definition

isActive

public boolean isActive()

Specified by:

isActive in interface Inactivatable

getVersionNumber

public Long getVersionNumber()

Specified by:

getVersionNumber in interface Versioned

getParameters

public List<FunctionParameterDefinition> getParameters()

Description copied from interface: FunctionDefinitionContract

Returns an ordered, immutable list of the parameters which this function definition requires. This list can be empty (in the case of a function which has no arguments) but will never be null.

Specified by:

getParameters in interface FunctionDefinitionContract

Returns:

the list of parameters for this function definition

getCategories

public List<CategoryDefinition> getCategories()

Description copied from interface: FunctionDefinitionContract

Returns an ordered list of the categories which this function definition requires. This list can be empty (in the case of a function which has no arguments) but will never be null.

Specified by:

getCategories in interface FunctionDefinitionContract

Returns:

the list of categories for this function definition
