class properties of models and model elements

model and model element’s class properties §

There are four types of properties:

1. TYP properties, of a Chassis predefined type (see below)
2. KClass<*> properties
3. poetType: TypeName properties
4. model properties (a reference to another model or modelsubelement of the Chassis DSL)

currently predefined TYPs are:

|-----|---------------------| | INT | TYP(Integer::class) | | LONG | TYP(Long::class) | | STRING | TYP(String::class) | | BOOL | TYP(Boolean::class) | | UUID | TYP(java.util) | | INSTANT | TYP(kotlinx.datetime.Instant::class) | | LOCALDATETIME | TYP(kotlinx.datetime.LocalDateTime::class) |

There are a plethora of function overloads defined to enable you with fewest possible typing to specify what you want the property characteristics to be.

• mutable: Mutable §

• collectionType: COLLECTIONTYP
  • NONE
  • LIST
  • SET
  • COLLECTION
  • ITERABLE
• initializer: Initializer
  • Initializer.of(format: String, vararg args: Any) wrapper around kotlinPoet initializer, see KotlinPoet
• modifiers: MutableSet<com.squareup.kotlinpoet.KModifier>
• length: Int
  • used for Database mapping if the persistent type has to have fixed length (e.g varchar(2048))
• tags: Tags (see code for a complete list)
  • DEFAULT_INITIALIZER
  • NO_DEFAULT_INITIALIZER
  • CONSTRUCTOR
  • CONSTRUCTOR_INSUPER
  • COLLECTION_IMMUTABLE
  • HASH_MEMBER
  • PRIMARY
  • TO_STRING_MEMBER
  • TRANSIENT
  • NULLABLE
  • NULLABLE_GENERICTYPE

propertiesOf §

the fun propertiesOf(...) allows you to specify that the current (sub)model should (directly) have the properties of the referenced Chassis DSL (sub)model.

second parameter is one of (specifying which of the rerenced props to gather):

enum class GatherPropertiesEnum {
    NONE,
    PROPERTIES_ONLY_DIRECT_ONES,
    PROPERTIES_AND_SUPERCLASS_PROPERTIES,
    SUPERCLASS_PROPERTIES_ONLY
}
