  • Field Details

    • SELF

      static final String SELF
      A special profile id representing the profile of the currently running system. This constant can be used when invoking getProfile(String) to obtain the profile of the currently running system. Note that a given profile registry may not have a defined self profile, for example if the running system doesn't have a profile, or resides in a different profile registry.

    • SERVICE_NAME

      static final String SERVICE_NAME
      Service name constant for the profile registry service.
  • Method Details

      IProfile getProfile(String id)

      the profile or null
    • getProfile

      Return the profile in the registry that has the given id and timestamp. If it does not exist, then return null.
      Parameters:
      id - the profile identifier
      timestamp - the profile's timestamp

      the profile or null
    • listProfileTimestamps

      long[] listProfileTimestamps(String id)
      Return an array of timestamps in ascending order for the profile id in question. If there are none, then return an empty array.

      Returns:
      the array of profiles
    • addProfile

      IProfile addProfile(String id) throws ProvisionException
      Add the given profile to this profile registry.
      Parameters:
      id - the profile id
      Returns:
      the new empty profile
      Throws:
      ProvisionException - if a profile with the same id is already present in the registry.
    • addProfile

      IProfile addProfile(String id, Map<String,String> properties) throws ProvisionException
      Add the given profile to this profile registry.
      Parameters:
      id - the profile id
      properties - the profile properties
      Returns:
      the new empty profile
      Throws:
      ProvisionException - if a profile with the same id is already present in the registry.
    • containsProfile

      boolean containsProfile(String profileId)
      Returns whether this profile registry contains a profile with the given id.
      Parameters:
      profileId - The id of the profile to search for
      Returns:
      true if this registry contains a profile with the given id, and false otherwise.
    • removeProfile

      void removeProfile(String id, long timestamp) throws ProvisionException
      Remove the given profile snapshot from this profile registry. This method has no effect if this registry does not contain a profile with the given id and timestamp. The current profile cannot be removed using this method. When a particular profile state is removed from the registry, the corresponding profile state properties for that particular state are also removed.
      Parameters:
      id - the profile to remove
      timestamp - the timestamp of the profile to remove
      Throws:
      ProvisionException - if the profile with the specified id and timestamp is the current profile.
    • removeProfile

      void removeProfile(String id)
      Remove the given profile from this profile registry. This method has no effect if this registry does not contain a profile with the given id. When a profile is removed from the registry, all of its associated profile state properties are removed as well.
      Parameters:
      id - the profile to remove
    • isCurrent

      boolean isCurrent(IProfile profile)
      Check if the given profile from this profile registry is up-to-date.
      Parameters:
      profile - the profile to check
      Returns:
      boolean true if the profile is current; false otherwise.
    • setProfileStateProperties

      IStatus setProfileStateProperties(String id, long timestamp, Map<String,String> properties)
      Set properties on a specific profile state. Overwrite existing properties if present.
      Parameters:
      id - the identifier of the profile
      timestamp - the timestamp of the profile
      properties - the properties to set on the profile
      Returns:
      status object indicating success or failure
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if either id or properties are null
      Since:
      2.1
    • setProfileStateProperty

      IStatus setProfileStateProperty(String id, long timestamp, String key, String value)
      Set a specific property on a specific profile state. Overwrite existing properties if present.

      Use of this method is discouraged if multiple properties will be set on the same state since the implementation of this method may access the file-system with each call. Callers should use setProfileStateProperties(String, long, Map) instead.

      Parameters:
      id - the profile identifier
      timestamp - the timestamp of the profile
      key - the property key to set
      value - the property value to set
      Returns:
      status object indicating success or failure
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if any of id, key or value is null
      Since:
      2.1
    • getProfileStateProperties

      Map<String,String> getProfileStateProperties(String id, long timestamp)
      Return all properties for a particular profile state. Both the key and the values are String. Return an empty map if there was a problem accessing the properties.

      There is no guarantee that all state timestamps returned will still exist in the registry since the user could delete profile states from the file system.

      Parameters:
      id - the profile identifier
      timestamp - the profile timestamp
      Returns:
      a property map of key value pairs. An empty map if the profile state has no properties or does not exist
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if profile id is null.
      Since:
      2.1
    • getProfileStateProperties

      Map<String,String> getProfileStateProperties(String id, String key)
      Return a map of profile timestamps to values for all profile states that contain the given property key. Both the key and value are of type String. Return an empty map if there was a problem accessing the properties.

      There is no guarantee that all state timestamps returned will still exist in the registry since the user could delete profile states from the file system.

      Parameters:
      id - the profile identifier
      key - the property key
      Returns:
      A map of timestamp and values for the given key. An empty map if no states define the given key.
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if the profile id or key is null.
      Since:
      2.1
    • removeProfileStateProperties

      IStatus removeProfileStateProperties(String id, long timestamp, Collection<String> keys)
      Remove all properties with matching keys from the given profile state. Non-existent keys are ignored. If the state does not exist the method performs a no-op and returns normally. If the keys parameter is null then remove all properties from the profile state.
      Parameters:
      id - the profile identifier
      timestamp - the profile timestamp
      keys - the property keys to remove, or null
      Returns:
      a status object indicating success or failure
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if the profile id is null.
