types

Description:
  • Types is a module containing the three different types: GraphType, EntryType and ResourceType shortened GT, ET and RT.

Source:

Members

Description:
  • Link EntryType implies that the resource is not maintained in the repository, rather the entry only provides a link to the resource. The metadata is still maintained in the repository though.

Source:
See:
  • Entry#isLink

Link EntryType implies that the resource is not maintained in the repository, rather the entry only provides a link to the resource. The metadata is still maintained in the repository though.

(static) ET_LINKREF

Description:
  • Similar to link and reference, only there is both local metadata and external metadata.

Source:
See:
  • Entry#isLinkReference

Similar to link and reference, only there is both local metadata and external metadata.

(static, constant) ET_LOCAL

Description:
  • Local entrytype implies that the resource is maintained in the repository. It can be an uploaded file, a list, a group, a user etc. The nature of the resource is determined by the graphtype.

Source:
See:
  • Entry#isLocal

Local entrytype implies that the resource is maintained in the repository. It can be an uploaded file, a list, a group, a user etc. The nature of the resource is determined by the graphtype.

(static) ET_REF

Description:
  • Similar to link, only the metadata is also external to the repository. In many cases it is possible to access a locally cached version of the external metadata though.

Source:
See:
  • Entry#getCachedExternalMetadata
  • Entry#isReference

Similar to link, only the metadata is also external to the repository. In many cases it is possible to access a locally cached version of the external metadata though.

(static) GT_CONTEXT

Description:
  • The resource is a context, i.e. a container for other entries.

Source:
See:
  • Entry#isContext
  • Context

The resource is a context, i.e. a container for other entries.

(static) GT_GRAPH

Description:
  • The resource is a RDF graph.

Source:
See:
  • Entry#isGraph
  • Graph

The resource is a RDF graph.

(static) GT_GROUP

Description:
  • The resource is a group.

Source:
See:
  • Entry#isGroup
  • Group

The resource is a group.

(static) GT_LIST

Description:
  • The resource is a list.

Source:
See:
  • Entry#isList
  • List

The resource is a list.

(static) GT_NONE

Description:
  • No graph type specified means that no knowledge of the resources character is known. Hence, no special treatment of the resource is expected. This is common when handling regular files, web resources or abstract entities.

Source:
See:
  • Entry#isNone

No graph type specified means that no knowledge of the resources character is known. Hence, no special treatment of the resource is expected. This is common when handling regular files, web resources or abstract entities.

(static) GT_PIPELINE

Description:
  • The resource is a pipeline, e.g. an entry that can somehow be executed on the server side.

Source:
See:
  • Entry#isPipeline
  • Pipeline

The resource is a pipeline, e.g. an entry that can somehow be executed on the server side.

(static) GT_PIPELINERESULT

Description:
  • The resource is a pipelineresult, e.g. the result of the execution of a pipeline on the server side.

Source:
See:
  • Entry#isPipelineResult
  • Pipeline

The resource is a pipelineresult, e.g. the result of the execution of a pipeline on the server side.

(static) GT_RESULTLIST

Source:
See:
  • Entry#isResultList
To Do:
  • remains to be supported in this API

(static) GT_STRING

Description:
  • The resource is a string.

Source:
See:
  • Entry#isString
  • String

The resource is a string.

(static) GT_SYSTEMCONTEXT

Description:
  • The resource is one of the special context of this repository, e.g. _contexts or _principals.

Source:
See:
  • Entry#isSystemContext

The resource is one of the special context of this repository, e.g. _contexts or _principals.

(static) GT_USER

Description:
  • The resource is a user.

Source:
See:
  • Entry#isUser
  • User

The resource is a user.

(static) RT_INFORMATIONRESOURCE

Description:
  • The resource is available as a digital representation of some sort. Opposite to resources that have no representation, referred to as named.

Source:

The resource is available as a digital representation of some sort. Opposite to resources that have no representation, referred to as named.

(static) RT_NAMEDRESOURCE

Description:
  • The resource is not available digitally, i.e. it has now digital representation that can be transferred over a network.

Source:

The resource is not available digitally, i.e. it has now digital representation that can be transferred over a network.

(static) RT_RESOLVABLEINFORMATIONRESOURCE

Description:
  • The resource is resolvable to another address.

Source:
To Do:
  • the API has little support for this type currently.

The resource is resolvable to another address.

(static) RT_UNKNOWN

Description:
  • It is unknown if the resource has a representation or not, typically this is the case when large amounts of resources are harvested from another system and it is not feasible to try to load them to check weather they have a digital representation or not. At least the check cannot be done initially and therefore the type is set to unknown.
