Interface ContentEntityAdapter

All Known Implementing Classes:
ContentEntityAdapterParent, DefaultContentAdapter, JsonPropertyEntityAdapter

public interface ContentEntityAdapter
Class provided by a content type plugin to allow the resulting CustomContentEntityObject to return the right responses to various methods.

In case of change to this interface, plugins should extend ContentEntityAdapterParent which will get default implementations of any new methods as they are created

Methods that return Option represent an optional feature. If an adapter returns None from these methods, some default value will be used instead.

      Returns:

    • isAllowedParent

      boolean isAllowedParent(CustomContentEntityObject child, CustomContentEntityObject parent)
      Determine if a particular content is an acceptable parent for this content. The content object will ensure that there are no loops in the parent/child chain, and that the parent is in the same space as the child (if any), so implementations do not need to check that.

      Parent and child are required to be CustomContentEntityObjects. Typically this should be used if CustomContentEntityObject.getPluginModuleKey() returns the same value for both objects.

      See Also:
    • isAllowedContainer

      boolean isAllowedContainer(ContentEntityObject child, ContentEntityObject container)
      Determine if a particular content is an acceptable container for a particular child. The content object will ensure that there are no loops in the container/child chain, and that the container is in the same space as the child (if any), so implementations do not need to check that.

      Will be invoked for the child adapter and the container adapter, if applicable.

      Only one of container or child are required to be CustomContentEntityObjects. If both types are CustomContentEntityObjects, this must only be used if CustomContentEntityObject.getPluginModuleKey() also returns distinct values for both objects.

      See Also:
    • isIndexable

      boolean isIndexable(CustomContentEntityObject pluginContentEntityObject, boolean isDefaultIndexable)
      Determine if a particular content should be indexed. The isDefaultIndexable parameter will contain the value of super.isIndexable(), so the plugin may choose to follow or override the standard reasons not to index SpaceContentEntityObject (trashed content, content that is not in a space, content that is an old version are all not indexed by default)
      Parameters:
      pluginContentEntityObject - the entity to check
      isDefaultIndexable - if the entity would be indexed absent of this check.
    • shouldConvertToContent

      boolean shouldConvertToContent(CustomContentEntityObject pluginContentEntityObject)
      Determine if a particular content is going to be part of the core API. Defaults to true.
      Parameters:
      pluginContentEntityObject - the entity to check
    • getVersionChildPolicy

      VersionChildOwnerPolicy getVersionChildPolicy(ContentType contentType)
      This will be called by Versioned.getVersionChildPolicy(com.atlassian.confluence.api.model.content.ContentType) to determine the policy to be used when saving the CCEO.
