Method Detail

getNamespace

@Nullable
public String getNamespace()

The namespace for the display item. The namespace defaults to the component which the display item belongs to.

getKey

public String getKey()

The key for the display item. Each display item is created with a key and value via {@link DisplayData#item).

getType

public DisplayData.Type getType()

Retrieve the DisplayData.Type of display data. All metadata conforms to a predefined set of allowed types.

getValue

@Nullable
public Object getValue()

Retrieve the value of the display item. The value is translated from the input to DisplayData.item(java.lang.String, java.lang.String) into a format suitable for display. Translation is based on the item's type.

The value will only be null if the input value during creation was null.

getShortValue

public Object getShortValue()

Return the optional short value for an item, or null if none is provided.

The short value is an alternative display representation for items having a long display value. For example, the value for DisplayData.Type.JAVA_CLASS items contains the full class name with package, while the short value contains just the class name. A value will be provided for each display item, and some types may also provide a short-value. If a short value is provided, display data consumers may choose to display it instead of or in addition to the value.

getLabel

@Nullable
public String getLabel()

Retrieve the optional label for an item. The label is a human-readable description of what the metadata represents. UIs may choose to display the label instead of the item key.

If no label was specified, this will return null.

getLinkUrl

@Nullable
public String getLinkUrl()

Retrieve the optional link URL for an item. The URL points to an address where the reader can find additional context for the display data.

If no URL was specified, this will return null.

withNamespace

public DisplayData.Item<T> withNamespace(Class<?> namespace)

Set the item namespace from the given Class.

This method does not alter the current instance, but instead returns a new DisplayData.Item with the namespace set.
