Class ERXArrayUtilities.FlattenOperator

java.lang.Object

er.extensions.foundation.ERXArrayUtilities.FlattenOperator

All Implemented Interfaces:

NSArray.Operator

Enclosing class:

ERXArrayUtilities

public static class ERXArrayUtilities.FlattenOperator
extends Object

Define an NSArray.Operator for the key flatten.

This allows for key value paths like:

myArray.valueForKey("@flatten.someOtherPath");

Which in this case would return myArray flattened if myArray is an NSArray of NSArrays (of NSArrays etc) before continuing to process someOtherPath.

Method Detail

compute

public Object compute(NSArray array,
                      String keypath)

Flattens the given array.

Parameters:

array - array to be flattened.

keypath - additional keypath

Returns:

value following keypath for flattened array

contents

public Object contents(NSArray<?> array,
                       String keypath)

Rather than iterating through the array argument calling valueForKeyPath on each array object, this method operates by calling valueForKeyPath on the array argument instead. This method is used by Wonder operators to chain multiple array operators in a single key path.

Parameters:

array - the array value for the operator

keypath - the keypath to call on the array argument

Returns:

the object value produced by valueForKeyPath, or the array itself if the keypath is empty
