Method Detail

definitionId

DataObjectInstanceVariableContainerBuilder definitionId(String id)

Set the id of the data object definition the new instance should be based on. Must only be provided, if the data object definition key is not set.

definitionKey

DataObjectInstanceVariableContainerBuilder definitionKey(String key)

Set the key of the data object definition the new instance should be based on. If set, the latest definition id is used. The key is ignored, if the definition id is set directly.

tenantId

DataObjectInstanceVariableContainerBuilder tenantId(String tenantId)

Set the tenant id for the new data object. This can be used together with the definition key for the lookup

operation

DataObjectInstanceVariableContainerBuilder operation(String operation)

Set the key of the operation that should be used to create the object.

createFromPayload

DataObjectInstanceVariableContainerBuilder createFromPayload(DataObjectHandlingContext context)

If an instance builder is used to create a new data object given by the payload sent from a form typically, this method is invoked to create the data object according the given payload data.

Parameters:

context - the data object context containing the data and full payload and further information for parsing the content into the data object

Returns:

the builder instance for method chaining

value

                                                 Object value)

Generic setter for a data object field value specified by its name and value to be set.

Parameters:

valueName - the name of the data object field to set a value

value - the value to be set

Returns:

the builder instance for method chaining

create

Returns:

the newly created data object instance

getDefinitionId
