Method Detail

newInstance

public static ReferenceBuilder newInstance()

Starts the construction of a Reference.

Returns:

builder object to continue construction

build

public Reference build()

Description copied from class: AbstractDataObjectBuilder

Returns the object that has been built.

Specified by:

build in class AbstractDataObjectBuilder<ReferenceBuilder,Reference>

Returns:

constructed object

withPropertyValue

public ReferenceBuilder withPropertyValue(PropertyIdValue propertyIdValue,
                                          Value value)

Adds the given property and value to the constructed reference.

Parameters:

propertyIdValue - the property to add

value - the value to add

Returns:

builder object to continue construction

withSomeValue

public ReferenceBuilder withSomeValue(PropertyIdValue propertyIdValue)

Adds a SomeValueSnak with the given property to the constructed reference.

Note that it might not be meaningful to use SomeValueSnak in a reference, depending on the policies of the wiki.

Parameters:

propertyIdValue - the property of the snak

Returns:

builder object to continue construction

withNoValue

public ReferenceBuilder withNoValue(PropertyIdValue propertyIdValue)

Adds a NoValueSnak with the given property to the constructed reference.

Note that it might not be meaningful to use NoValueSnak in a reference. It is usually implicitly assumed that all snaks that are not given have no value for a particular reference. Otherwise one would need large numbers of NoValueSnak entries for every reference!

Parameters:

propertyIdValue - the property of the snak

Returns:

builder object to continue construction
