All Implemented Interfaces:

RecordIDGenerator

public class UUIDGenerator
extends java.lang.Object
implements RecordIDGenerator

Generates UUIDs, using java.util.UUID, formatted as URNs from the UUID namespace [See RFC4122]. Here is an examples of the type of ID it makes: urn:uuid:0161811f-5da6-4c6e-9808-a2fab97114cf. Always makes a new identifier even when passed qualifiers.

Method Detail

qualifyRecordID

public java.net.URI qualifyRecordID(java.net.URI recordId,
                                    java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.String> qualifiers)

Description copied from interface: RecordIDGenerator

Append (or if already present, update) qualifiers to passed recordId. Use with caution. Guard against turning up a result that already exists. Use when writing a group of records inside a single transaction. How qualifiers are appended/updated varies with URI scheme. Its allowed that an invocation of this method does nought but call RecordIDGenerator.getRecordID(), returning a new URI unrelated to the passed recordId and passed qualifier.

Specified by:

qualifyRecordID in interface RecordIDGenerator

Parameters:

recordId - URI to append qualifier to.

qualifiers - Map of qualifier values keyed by qualifier name.

Returns:

New URI based off passed uri and passed qualifier.

getRecordID

public java.net.URI getRecordID()

Specified by:

getRecordID in interface RecordIDGenerator

Returns:

A URI that can serve as a record-id.

getQualifiedRecordID

public java.net.URI getQualifiedRecordID(java.lang.String key,
                                         java.lang.String value)

Specified by:

getQualifiedRecordID in interface RecordIDGenerator

Parameters:

key - Name of qualifier

value - Value of qualifier

Returns:

A URI qualified with passed qualifiers that can serve as a record-id, or, a new, unique record-id without qualifiers (if qualifiers not easily implemented using passed URI scheme).

getQualifiedRecordID

public java.net.URI getQualifiedRecordID(java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.String> qualifiers)

Specified by:

getQualifiedRecordID in interface RecordIDGenerator

Parameters:

qualifiers - Qualifiers to add.

Returns:

A URI qualified with passed qualifiers that can serve as a record-id, or, a new, unique record-id without qualifiers (if qualifiers not easily implemented using passed URI scheme).
