Package org.apache.sis.metadata.sql

Class MetadataSource

java.lang.Object
org.apache.sis.metadata.sql.MetadataSource
All Implemented Interfaces:
AutoCloseable
Direct Known Subclasses:
MetadataWriter
public class MetadataSource extends Object implements AutoCloseable
A connection to a metadata database in read-only mode. It can be either the database provided by Apache SIS with predefined ISO 19115 metadata, or another database specified at construction time. Metadata instances can be obtained as in the example below: where id is the primary key value for the desired record in the Format table.

Properties

The constructor expects three Java arguments (the metadata standard, the data source and the database schema) completed by an arbitrary amount of optional arguments given as a map of properties. The following keys are recognized by MetadataSource and all other entries are ignored:
Optional properties at construction time
Key Value type Description
"catalog" String The database catalog where the metadata schema is stored.
"classloader" ClassLoader The class loader to use for creating Proxy instances.
"maxStatements" Integer Maximal number of PreparedStatements that can be kept simultaneously open.

Concurrency

MetadataSource is thread-safe but is not concurrent. If concurrency is desired, multiple instances of MetadataSource can be created for the same DataSource. The MetadataSource(MetadataSource) convenience constructor can be used for this purpose.

  • Field Details

    • standard

      protected final MetadataStandard standard
      The metadata standard to be used for constructing the database schema.

  • Constructor Details

    • MetadataSource

      public MetadataSource(MetadataStandard standard, DataSource dataSource, String schema, Map<String,?> properties)
      Creates a new metadata source. The metadata standard to implement (typically ISO 19115, but not necessarily) and the database source are mandatory information. All other information are optional and can be null.
      Parameters:
      standard - the metadata standard to implement.
      dataSource - the source for getting a connection to the database.
      schema - the database schema were metadata tables are stored, or null if none.
      properties - additional options, or null if none. See class javadoc for a description.

    • MetadataSource

      public MetadataSource(MetadataSource source)
      Creates a new metadata source with the same configuration than the given source. The two MetadataSource instances will share the same DataSource but will use their own Connection. This constructor is useful when concurrency is desired.

      The new MetadataSource initially contains the warning filter declared in the given source.

      Parameters:
      source - the source from which to copy the configuration.

  • Method Details

    • getProvided

      public static MetadataSource getProvided()
      Returns the metadata source connected to the "jdbc/SpatialMetadata" database. In a default Apache SIS installation, this metadata source contains predefined records for some commonly used citations and formats among others.

      If connection to the metadata database cannot be established, then this method returns a fallback with a few hard-coded values.

      Returns:
      source of predefined metadata records from the "jdbc/SpatialMetadata" database.

    • search

      public String search(Object metadata) throws MetadataStoreException
      Searches for the given metadata in the database. If such metadata is found, then its identifier (primary key) is returned. Otherwise this method returns null.
      Parameters:
      metadata - the metadata to search for.
      Returns:
      the identifier of the given metadata, or null if none.
      Throws:
      MetadataStoreException - if the metadata object does not implement a metadata interface of the expected package, or if an error occurred while searching in the database.

    • lookup

      public <T> T lookup(Class<T> type, String identifier) throws MetadataStoreException
      Returns an implementation of the specified metadata interface filled with the data referenced by the specified identifier. Alternatively, this method can also return a CodeList or Enum element.
      Type Parameters:
      T - the parameterized type of the type argument.
      Parameters:
      type - the interface to implement (e.g. Citation), or the ControlledVocabulary type (CodeList or some Enum).
      identifier - the identifier of the record for the metadata entity to be created. This is usually the primary key of the record to search for.
      Returns:
      an implementation of the required interface, or the code list element.
      Throws:
      MetadataStoreException - if a SQL query failed or if the metadata has not been found.

    • setWarningFilter

      public Filter setWarningFilter(Filter filter)
      Sets a filter to be notified when a warning occurred while reading from or writing metadata. When a warning occurs, there is a choice:
      • If this metadata source has no warning filter, or if the filter returns true, then the warning is logged at Level.WARNING.
      • Otherwise the warning is not logged by this metadata source instance. The filter implementation is free to keep a reference to the given record, for example in order to display it in a graphical user interface.
      Parameters:
      filter - the filter to set, or null for removing the filter.
      Returns:
      the previous filter, or null if none.
      Since:
      1.1

    • getWarningFilter

      public Filter getWarningFilter()
      Returns the current warning filter.
      Returns:
      the current filter, or null if none.
      Since:
      1.1

    • close

      public void close() throws MetadataStoreException
      Closes the database connection used by this object.
      Specified by:
      close in interface AutoCloseable
      Throws:
      MetadataStoreException - if an error occurred while closing the connection.
