  • Method Details

    • createAbsoluteResourceIdentifier

      ResourceIdentifier createAbsoluteResourceIdentifier(ContentEntityObject ceo)
      Create a fully populated (absolute) ResourceIdentifier from the supplied ContentEntityObject.

      This differs from ResourceIdentifierFactory in that it is intended for use in the context of a conversion and therefore understandings relevant details such as that when converting a Comment the relevant ResourceIdentifier is that of the Comment's owner.

      Parameters:
      ceo - The ContentEntityObject to get a conversion suitable ResourceIdentifier for.
      Returns:
      the relevant ResourceIdentifier.
    • createAbsolutePageTemplateResourceIdentifier

      default ResourceIdentifier createAbsolutePageTemplateResourceIdentifier(PageTemplate template)
      Create a ResourceIdentifier from the supplied PageTemplate.

      To be used in place of createAbsoluteResourceIdentifier(ContentEntityObject) whenever the conversion context is that of a PageTemplate. Necessary because a PageTemplate is not a ContentEntityObject

      Parameters:
      template - The PageTemplate to get a conversion suitable ResourceIdentifer for.
      Returns:
      the relevant ResourceIdentifier
      Since:
      7.5.0
    • convertToAbsolute

      Create and return a fully populated version of the supplied ResourceIdentifier with any missing attributes derived from the supplied context ContentEntityObject.
      Parameters:
      ri - the ResourceIdentifier to be expanded. If it is null then a new resource identifier will be returned based on the type of the supplied ContentEntityObject.
      ceo - the ContentEntityObject to be used as context. If this is null then the ResourceIdentifier will be returned unchanged.
      Returns:
      a fully expanded ResourceIdentifier. May be null if a null ResourceIdentifier was provided along with a null ContentEntityObject
    • convertToRelative

      Make the provided ResourceIdentifier as relative as possible to the provided ContentEntityObject.

      For instance if the RI and the CEO share the same space key then the space key will be dropped from the RI. If the RI and the CEO share all attributes then a null RI will be returned indicating that it is unnecessary.

      This is a centralisation of the logic required for CONF-23328 which is to make links as relative as possible in storage.

      Parameters:
      ri - The ResourceIdentifier to make relative
      ceo - the ContentEntityObject to be used as context. If this is null then the ResourceIdentifier will be returned unchanged.
      Returns:
      a new ResourceIdentifier as sparsely populated as possible or null if the RI would not be required at all.
