Interface DirectoryInput

All Superinterfaces:

QualifiedContent

@Beta
public interface DirectoryInput
extends QualifiedContent

A QualifiedContent of type directory.

This means the QualifiedContent.getFile() is the root directory containing the content.

This also contains incremental data if the transform is in incremental mode through getChangedFiles().

For a transform to run in incremental mode:

• Transform.isIncremental() must return true
• The parameter isIncremental of Transform.transform(Context, Collection, Collection, TransformOutputProvider, boolean) must be true.

If the transform is not in incremental mode, getChangedFiles() will not contain any information (it will not contain the list of all the files with state Status.NOTCHANGED.)

When a root level directory is removed, and incremental mode is on, the instance will receive a DirectoryInput instance for the removed folder, but QualifiedContent.getFile() will return a directory that does not exist. In this case, the transform should prcess this as a removed input.

This API is non final and is subject to change. We are looking for feedback, and will attempt to stabilize it in the 1.6 time frame.
