@PublicApi
public interface DirectivesContainer<T extends DirectivesContainer>
extends Node<T>
```
Represents a language node that can contain Directives. Directives can be repeatable and (by default) non repeatable.
There are access methods here that get the two different types.

DirectiveDefinition, DirectiveDefinition.isRepeatable()

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods Default Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`java.util.List<Directive>`	`getDirectives()`	This will return a list of all the directives that have been put on `Node` as a flat list, which may contain repeatable and non repeatable directives.
`default java.util.List<Directive>`	`getDirectives(java.lang.String directiveName)`	Returns all of the directives with the provided name, including repeatable and non repeatable directives.
`default java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.util.List<Directive>>`	`getDirectivesByName()`	This will return a Map of the all directives that are associated with a `Node`, including both repeatable and non repeatable directives.
`default boolean`	`hasDirective(java.lang.String directiveName)`	This returns true if the AST node contains one or more directives by the specified name
