Class CustomConversions

java.lang.Object

org.springframework.data.convert.CustomConversions

public class CustomConversions
extends Object

Value object to capture custom conversion. That is essentially a List of converters and some additional logic around them. The converters build up two sets of types which store-specific basic types can be converted into and from. These types will be considered simple ones (which means they neither need deeper inspection nor nested conversion. Thus, the CustomConversions also act as factory for SimpleTypeHolder .

Nested Classes

Modifier and Type	Class and Description
protected static class	CustomConversions.ConverterConfiguration Value object holding the actual CustomConversions.StoreConversions and custom converters configured for registration.
protected static class	CustomConversions.ConverterRegistrationIntent Value class tying together a ConverterRegistration and its origin to allow fine grained registration based on store supported types.

Constructor Summary

Constructors

Constructor and Description
CustomConversions(CustomConversions.ConverterConfiguration converterConfiguration)
CustomConversions(CustomConversions.StoreConversions storeConversions, Collection<?> converters) Creates a new CustomConversions instance registering all given user defined converters and selecting converters from CustomConversions.StoreConversions depending on store simple types only considering those that either convert to/from a store supported type.

PropertyValueConversions	getPropertyValueConversions()
SimpleTypeHolder	getSimpleTypeHolder() Returns the underlying SimpleTypeHolder.
boolean	hasCustomReadTarget(Class<?> sourceType, Class<?> targetType) Returns whether we have a custom conversion registered to read the given source into the given target type.
boolean	hasCustomWriteTarget(Class<?> sourceType) Returns whether we have a custom conversion registered to read sourceType into a native type.
boolean	hasCustomWriteTarget(Class<?> sourceType, Class<?> targetType) Returns whether we have a custom conversion registered to read an object of the given source type into an object of the given native target type.
boolean	isSimpleType(Class<?> type) Returns whether the given type is considered to be simple.

CustomConversions

public CustomConversions(CustomConversions.StoreConversions storeConversions,
                         Collection<?> converters)

Creates a new CustomConversions instance registering all given user defined converters and selecting converters from CustomConversions.StoreConversions depending on store simple types only considering those that either convert to/from a store supported type.

Parameters:

storeConversions - must not be null.

converters - must not be null.

Method Detail

getSimpleTypeHolder

public SimpleTypeHolder getSimpleTypeHolder()

Returns the underlying SimpleTypeHolder.

Returns:

isSimpleType

public boolean isSimpleType(Class<?> type)

Returns whether the given type is considered to be simple. That means it's either a general simple type or we have a writing Converter registered for a particular type.

Parameters:

type -

Returns:

SimpleTypeHolder.isSimpleType(Class)

registerConvertersIn

public void registerConvertersIn(ConverterRegistry conversionService)

Populates the given GenericConversionService with the converters registered.

Parameters:

conversionService -

getPropertyValueConversions

@Nullable
public PropertyValueConversions getPropertyValueConversions()

getCustomWriteTarget

public Optional<Class<?>> getCustomWriteTarget(Class<?> sourceType)

Returns the target type to convert to in case we have a custom conversion registered to convert the given source type into a store native one.

Parameters:

sourceType - must not be null

Returns:

getCustomWriteTarget

public Optional<Class<?>> getCustomWriteTarget(Class<?> sourceType,
                                               Class<?> requestedTargetType)

Returns the target type we can read an inject of the given source type to. The returned type might be a subclass of the given expected type though. If requestedTargetType is null we will simply return the first target type matching or null if no conversion can be found.

Parameters:

sourceType - must not be null

requestedTargetType - must not be null.

Returns:

hasCustomWriteTarget

public boolean hasCustomWriteTarget(Class<?> sourceType)

Returns whether we have a custom conversion registered to read sourceType into a native type. The returned type might be a subclass of the given expected type though.

Parameters:

sourceType - must not be null

Returns:

hasCustomWriteTarget

public boolean hasCustomWriteTarget(Class<?> sourceType,
                                    Class<?> targetType)

Returns whether we have a custom conversion registered to read an object of the given source type into an object of the given native target type.

Parameters:

sourceType - must not be null.

targetType - must not be null.

Returns:

hasCustomReadTarget

public boolean hasCustomReadTarget(Class<?> sourceType,
                                   Class<?> targetType)

Returns whether we have a custom conversion registered to read the given source into the given target type.

Parameters:

sourceType - must not be null

targetType - must not be null

Returns:
