public interface ComponentRepository<Item extends RepositoryItem> extends Iterable<Item>, Repository
A convenience interface for a unified access to component specific repository data. This is not intended to keep huge number of elements. Rather then it is more like for storing Component dynamic configuration data. In simple cases this data can be stored in configuration file, in more complex cases it can be a database represented by UserRepository or even something else.
The repository is intended to store elements of a single type only. Each element is identified by a unique key. All elements are cached in memory for a fast retrieval so this kind of repository is recommended for small data only when you need very fast and efficient access to all the information.
Some implementations however may behave differently and not cache all the repository items in memory.

    • addRepoChangeListener

      void addRepoChangeListener(RepositoryChangeListenerIfc<Item> repoChangeListener)
      Adds a listener for repository Item change.

    • removeRepoChangeListener

      void removeRepoChangeListener(RepositoryChangeListenerIfc<Item> repoChangeListener)
      Removes a listener for repository Item change.

    • addItem

      void addItem(Item item) throws TigaseDBException
      The method adds a new or updates existing Item in the repository. It needs to have all fields set correctly. After this method call is finished a new added item must be available in the component repository. The method adds the item to memory cache and permanent storage.
      Parameters:
      item - a Item with all it's configuration parameters.
      Throws:
      TigaseDBException

    • addItemNoStore

      void addItemNoStore(Item item)
      The method adds a new or updates existing Item. It needs to have all fields set correctly. After this method call is finished a new added item must be available in the component repository. The method adds the item to memory cache but not to a permanent storage.
      Parameters:
      item - a Item with all it's configuration parameters.

    • allItems

      Collection<Item> allItems() throws TigaseDBException
      Returns a collection with all items stored in the repository.
      Throws:
      TigaseDBException

    • contains

      boolean contains(String key)
      The method checks whether the item is stored in the repository.
      Parameters:
      key - a String with key to search for.
      Returns:
      a boolean value true if the item exists in the repository or false of it does not.

    • destroy

      void destroy()
      Method destroys this instance of ComponentRepository releasing resources allocated for this instance of ComponentRepository if possible

    • getDefaults

      @Deprecated void getDefaults(Map<String,Object> defs, Map<String,Object> params)
      Deprecated.
      The method is called to obtain default configuration settings if there are any for this repository implementation The configuration settings are implementation dependent and there are no defaults set by the server. Default settings returned by this method are then saved in the configuration file and presented to the admin for further adjustments.
      Parameters:
      defs - is a Map collection where all repository configuration defaults must be put.
      params - is a Map collection with some preset properties for the server. These settings can be used to adjust repository defaults, for example they can contain database connection URL or initial list of virtual domains.

    • getItem

      Item getItem(String key)
      The method returns all item configuration parameters for a key or null if the item does not exist in the repository.
      Parameters:
      key - a String with item identifier to search for.
      Returns:
      a Item for a given key or null if the item is not in the repository.

    • getItemInstance

      Item getItemInstance()
      Creates a new, uninitialized instance of the repository Item.
      Returns:
      a new, uninitialized instance of the repository Item.

    • reload

      void reload() throws TigaseDBException
      This method is called to reload items from the database or other permanent storage. It is possible that items list is modified externally by third-party system.
