Constructor Detail

Javers

public Javers(DiffFactory diffFactory,
      TypeMapper typeMapper,
      JsonConverter jsonConverter,
      CommitFactory commitFactory,
      JaversExtendedRepository repository)

JaVers instance should be constructed by JaversBuilder

Method Detail

commit

public Commit commit(String author,
            Object currentVersion)

Persists current version of given domain objects graph in JaVers repository. All changes made on versioned objects are recorded, new objects become versioned and its initial state is recorded.

For any versioned object, you can:

• TODO

Parameters:

currentVersion - domain object, instance of Entity or ValueObject. It should be root of an aggregate, tree root or any node in objects graph from where all other nodes are navigable. (Javadoc source: ObjectGraphBuilder.buildGraph(Object))

compare

public Diff compare(Object oldVersion,
           Object currentVersion)

Easiest way to calculate diff, just provide two versions of the same object graph. Use it if you don't want to store domain objects history in JaVers repository.

Diffs can be converted to JSON with toJson(Diff) and stored in custom repository

initial

public Diff initial(Object newDomainObject)

Initial diff is a kind of snapshot of given domain objects graph. Use it alongside with compare(Object, Object)

toJson

public String toJson(Diff diff)

Use it alongside with compare(Object, Object)

idBuilder

public IdBuilder idBuilder()

getStateHistory

public List<CdoSnapshot> getStateHistory(Object localId,
                                Class entityClass,
                                int limit)

Snapshots (historical states) of entity instance, in reverse chronological order

Parameters:

localId - id of required instance

entityClass - class of required instance

limit - choose reasonable limit

Returns:

empty List if object is not versioned

Throws:

JaversException - ENTITY_NOT_MAPPED if given javaClass is NOT mapped to Entity

initial

@Deprecated
public Diff initial(String author,
                      Object newDomainObject)

Deprecated. use initial(Object)

Parameters:

author - ignored

compare

@Deprecated
public Diff compare(String author,
                      Object oldVersion,
                      Object currentVersion)

Deprecated. use compare(Object, Object)

Parameters:

author - ignored
