Interface AggregateHandler

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultAggregateHandler

public interface AggregateHandler

The AggregateHandler is used to determine if a node is an aggregate root or not. Aggregates are used to build replication content and to determine the set of replicated "documents". It is also used the prepare and process the set of aggregates during a replication.

Since:

5.5

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
boolean	isAggregateRoot(Node node)	Checks if the given node is an aggregate root.
List<String>	prepareForReplication(Session session, ReplicationActionType type, String path)	Returns a list of aggregate roots of the subtree starting at the specified path that are relevant for the given replication action.
void	processForReplication(Session session, ReplicationAction action)	Processes the aggregate addressed by the replication action.

Method Details

isAggregateRoot

boolean isAggregateRoot(Node node)

Checks if the given node is an aggregate root.

Parameters:

node - node to test

Returns:

true if the node is an aggregate root

prepareForReplication

List<String> prepareForReplication(Session session,
 ReplicationActionType type,
 String path)
                            throws ReplicationException

Returns a list of aggregate roots of the subtree starting at the specified path that are relevant for the given replication action. The specified start path should be included in the list in any case.

Parameters:

session - session to use for traversal

type - replication action type

path - start path

Returns:

a list of aggregate roots.

Throws:

ReplicationException - to abort the replication in the preparation stage

processForReplication

void processForReplication(Session session,
 ReplicationAction action)
                    throws ReplicationException

Processes the aggregate addressed by the replication action. The aggregate handler may or may not save the changes.

Parameters:

session - the session to use to process the content

action - the replication action

Throws:

ReplicationException - to abort the replication in the preparation stage
