Enum PropagationMode

java.lang.Object

java.lang.Enum<PropagationMode>

org.gcube.informationsystem.resourceregistry.api.rest.PropagationMode

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<PropagationMode>

public enum PropagationMode
extends Enum<PropagationMode>

Controls how the avalanche-propagation effect behaves when an instance is added to a Context.

The wire format uses lowercase names (e.g. "shallow"). Use toString() to obtain the wire value and fromString(String) for case-insensitive parsing.

Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant	Description
DEEP	Traverses the full transitive closure, ignoring already-present instances.
SHALLOW	Halts propagation if the target instance is already present in the destination Context.
SURGICAL	Precise injection — admin-only, bypasses propagation constraints.

Field Summary

Fields

Modifier and Type	Field	Description
static PropagationMode	DEFAULT	The default propagation mode when no parameter is supplied.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
static PropagationMode	fromString(String s)	Parses a wire value (case-insensitive).
String	toString()	Returns the lowercase wire value (e.g.
static PropagationMode	valueOf(String name)	Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name.
static PropagationMode[]	values()	Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.

Enum Constant Detail

SHALLOW

public static final PropagationMode SHALLOW

Halts propagation if the target instance is already present in the destination Context.

DEEP

public static final PropagationMode DEEP

Traverses the full transitive closure, ignoring already-present instances.

SURGICAL

public static final PropagationMode SURGICAL

Precise injection — admin-only, bypasses propagation constraints.

Field Detail

DEFAULT

public static final PropagationMode DEFAULT

The default propagation mode when no parameter is supplied.

Method Detail

values

public static PropagationMode[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (PropagationMode c : PropagationMode.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static PropagationMode valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

fromString

public static PropagationMode fromString(String s)

Parses a wire value (case-insensitive). Returns null for unrecognised strings.

Parameters:

s - the wire string to parse

Returns:

the matching PropagationMode, or null if unrecognised

toString

public String toString()

Returns the lowercase wire value (e.g. "shallow").

Overrides:

toString in class Enum<PropagationMode>
