String	getName() Returns the name of the content.
Set<QualifiedContent.Scope>	getScopes() Returns the scope of the content.

Method Detail

getName

@NonNull
String getName()

Returns the name of the content. Can be used to differentiate different content using the same scope. This is not reliably usable at every stage of the transformations, but can be used for logging for instance.

Returns:

the name

getFile

@NonNull
File getFile()

Returns he location of the content.

Returns:

the content location.

getContentTypes

@NonNull
Set<QualifiedContent.ContentType> getContentTypes()

Returns the type of content that the stream represents.

Even though this may return only QualifiedContent.DefaultContentType.RESOURCES or QualifiedContent.DefaultContentType.CLASSES, the actual content (the folder or the jar) may contain files representing other content types. This is because the transform mechanism avoids duplicating files around to remove unwanted types for performance.

For each input, transforms should always take care to read and process only the files associated with the types returned by this method.

Returns:

a set of one or more types, never null nor empty.

getScopes

@NonNull
Set<QualifiedContent.Scope> getScopes()

Returns the scope of the content.

Returns:

a set of one or more scopes, never null nor empty.
