TokenizedPagingParams

Description

The TokenizedPagingParams allows you to create data transfer objects used to pass tokenized parameters for queries.

Important points

• The page is defined by two parameters:
  • the token token that defines a starting point for the search.
  • the take parameter sets how many items to return in a page.
• Additionally, the optional total parameter tells to return the total number of items in the query.
• However, not all implementations support the total parameter because its generation may lead to severe performance implications.
• In general, this class can be used for complex paging scenarios, like paging across multiple databases where the previous state is encoded in a token. The token is usually retrieved from the previous response. The initial request shall go with token == null

Constructors

Creates a new instance and sets its values.

public TokenizedPagingParams(String token, Integer take, Boolean total)

• token: String - token that defines a starting point for the search.
• take: Integer - the number of items to return.
• total: Boolean - true to return the total number of items.

Fields

Instance methods

getTake

Gets the number of items to return in a page.

public int getTake(int maxTake)

• maxTake: int - maximum number of items to return.
• returns: int - number of items to return.

Static methods

fromMap

Creates a new TokenizedPagingParams object and sets its parameters from the specified map.

public static TokenizedPagingParams fromMap(Object map)

• map: Object - object used to initialize this TokenizedPagingParams object.
• returns: TokenizedPagingParams - newly created TokenizedPagingParams object.

fromTuples

Creates a new TokenizedPagingParams object from a list of key-value pairs called tuples.

public static TokenizedPagingParams fromTuples(Object… tuples)

• tuples: Object… - list of values where odd elements are keys and the following even elements are values
• returns: TokenizedPagingParams - newly created TokenizedPagingParams object.

fromValue

Converts a specified value into a TokenizedPagingParams object.

public static TokenizedPagingParams fromValue(Object value)

• value: Object - value to be converted
• returns: TokenizedPagingParams - newly created TokenizedPagingParams object.

Examples

{
  var filter = FilterParams.fromTuples("type", "Type1");
  var paging = new TokenizedPagingParams(null, 100);
 
  var page = myDataClient.getDataByFilter(filter, paging);
  }
