Known Indirect Subclasses

Class Overview

Used to convert input parameters as submitted by a SearchRenderer into the intermediate form, as stored in a FieldValuesHolder and then from a FieldValuesHolder into an object form that is stored in the SearchRequest that is used to execute a search in JIRA.

Summary

Public Methods
abstract boolean doRelevantClausesFitFilterForm(User searcher, Query query, SearchContext searchContext)
Tells the caller whether or not the relevant clauses from the passed query can be represented on the issue navigator.
abstract Clause getSearchClause(User searcher, FieldValuesHolder fieldValuesHolder)
Gets the portion of the Search Query that this searcher is responsible for.
abstract void populateFromParams(User searcher, FieldValuesHolder fieldValuesHolder, ActionParams actionParams)
Populate FieldValuesHolder object with whatever values the searcher is interested in from the ActionParams.
abstract void populateFromQuery(User searcher, FieldValuesHolder fieldValuesHolder, Query query, SearchContext searchContext)
This method transforms any query information contained in the query that is relevant to this SearchInputTransformer into the values that the HTML rendering expects.
abstract void validateParams(User searcher, SearchContext searchContext, FieldValuesHolder fieldValuesHolder, I18nHelper i18nHelper, ErrorCollection errors)
Adds error meessages to the errors object if values in the fieldValuesHolder fails validation.

Public Methods

public abstract boolean doRelevantClausesFitFilterForm (User searcher, Query query, SearchContext searchContext)

Tells the caller whether or not the relevant clauses from the passed query can be represented on the issue navigator. Implementors of this method needs to ensure that it can represent *ALL* related clauses on the navigator, and that the clauses' structure conforms to the simple navigator structure.

The method should only be concerned with the clauses related to this transformer. Other irrelevant clauses should be ignored.
Parameters
searcher performing this action.
query to check if it can fit in the simple (GUI form based) issue navigator.
searchContext contains the projects and issue types that the search and filter form is restricted to
Returns
  • true if the query can be represented on navigator.

public abstract Clause getSearchClause (User searcher, FieldValuesHolder fieldValuesHolder)

Gets the portion of the Search Query that this searcher is responsible for.

Parameters
searcher performing this action.
fieldValuesHolder contains values populated by the searchers
Returns
  • a com.atlassian.query.clause.Clause that represents the users search based on the fieldValuesHolder; null if this searcher has no responsibility in the given input.

public abstract void populateFromParams (User searcher, FieldValuesHolder fieldValuesHolder, ActionParams actionParams)

Populate FieldValuesHolder object with whatever values the searcher is interested in from the ActionParams. This transforms the "raw" request parameters into a form that the other processing methods can handle (usually a mapping of the fields name as the key and a list of the values as the value).

Parameters
searcher performing this action.
fieldValuesHolder is the object that should have its values set by this method and that will contain any other values that have been set by other SearchInputTransformers.
actionParams params from the webwork front end that contains a String[] of values as submitted via the

public abstract void populateFromQuery (User searcher, FieldValuesHolder fieldValuesHolder, Query query, SearchContext searchContext)

This method transforms any query information contained in the query that is relevant to this SearchInputTransformer into the values that the HTML rendering expects. This should populate the FieldValuesHolder from the a query information in the query.
The query elements that are considered "relevant" to this method would be those that are produced by the getSearchClause(User, com.atlassian.jira.issue.transport.FieldValuesHolder) method.

Parameters
searcher performing this action.
fieldValuesHolder is the object that should have its values set by this method and that will contain any other values that have been set by other SearchInputTransformers.
query the search criteria used to populate the field values holder.
searchContext contains the projects and issue types that the search and filter form is restricted to

public abstract void validateParams (User searcher, SearchContext searchContext, FieldValuesHolder fieldValuesHolder, I18nHelper i18nHelper, ErrorCollection errors)

Adds error meessages to the errors object if values in the fieldValuesHolder fails validation. This should be called once the fieldValuesHolder has been populated.

Parameters
searcher performing this action.
searchContext the context of the search (i.e. projects and issue types selected).
fieldValuesHolder contains values populated by the populate methods of this input transformer.
i18nHelper used to internationalize error messages that we want to display to the users.
errors the ErrorCollection that contains the messages we want to display to the users.
