Class GenericUrl (1.42.0)

public class GenericUrl extends GenericData

URL builder in which the query parameters are specified as generic data key/value pairs, based on the specification RFC 3986: Uniform Resource Identifier (URI).

The query parameters are specified with the data key name as the parameter name, and the data value as the parameter value. Subclasses can declare fields for known query parameters using the Key annotation. null parameter names are not allowed, but null query values are allowed.

Query parameter values are parsed using UrlEncodedParser#parse(String, Object).

Implementation is not thread-safe.

Static Methods

toPathParts(String encodedPath)

public static List<String> toPathParts(String encodedPath)

Returns the decoded path parts for the given encoded path.

Parameter

Name	Description
encodedPath	`String` slash-prefixed encoded path, for example `"/m8/feeds/contacts/default/full"`

Returns

Type	Description
List<String>	decoded path parts, with each part assumed to be preceded by a `'/'`, for example `"", "m8", "feeds", "contacts", "default", "full"`, or `null` for `null` or `""` input

toPathParts(String encodedPath, boolean verbatim)

public static List<String> toPathParts(String encodedPath, boolean verbatim)

Returns the path parts (decoded if not verbatim).

Parameters

Name	Description
encodedPath	`String` slash-prefixed encoded path, for example `"/m8/feeds/contacts/default/full"`
verbatim	`boolean` flag, to specify if URL should be used as is (without encoding, decoding and escaping)

Returns

Type	Description
List<String>	path parts (decoded if not `verbatim`), with each part assumed to be preceded by a `'/'`, for example `"", "m8", "feeds", "contacts", "default", "full"`, or `null` for `null` or `""` input

Constructors

GenericUrl()

public GenericUrl()

GenericUrl(String encodedUrl)

public GenericUrl(String encodedUrl)

Constructs a GenericUrl from a URL encoded string.

Any known query parameters with pre-defined fields as data keys will be parsed based on their data type. Any unrecognized query parameter will always be parsed as a string.

Any MalformedURLException is wrapped in an IllegalArgumentException.

Upgrade warning: starting in version 1.18 this parses the encodedUrl using new URL(encodedUrl). In previous versions it used new URI(encodedUrl). In particular, this means that only a limited set of schemes are allowed such as "http" and "https", but that parsing is compliant with, at least, RFC 3986.

Parameter

Name	Description
encodedUrl	`String` encoded URL, including any existing query parameters that should be parsed

GenericUrl(String encodedUrl, boolean verbatim)

public GenericUrl(String encodedUrl, boolean verbatim)

Constructs a GenericUrl from a string.

Any known query parameters with pre-defined fields as data keys will be parsed based on their data type. Any unrecognized query parameter will always be parsed as a string.

Any MalformedURLException is wrapped in an IllegalArgumentException.

Parameters

Name	Description
encodedUrl	`String` encoded URL, including any existing query parameters that should be parsed
verbatim	`boolean` flag, to specify if URL should be used as is (without encoding, decoding and escaping)

GenericUrl(URI uri)

public GenericUrl(URI uri)

Constructs from a URI.

Parameter

Name	Description
uri	`URI` URI

GenericUrl(URI uri, boolean verbatim)

public GenericUrl(URI uri, boolean verbatim)

Constructs from a URI.

Parameters

Name	Description
uri	`URI` URI
verbatim	`boolean` flag, to specify if URL should be used as is (without encoding, decoding and escaping)

GenericUrl(URL url)

public GenericUrl(URL url)

Constructs from a URL.

Parameter

Name	Description
url	`URL` URL

GenericUrl(URL url, boolean verbatim)

public GenericUrl(URL url, boolean verbatim)

Constructs from a URL.

Parameters

Name	Description
url	`URL` URL
verbatim	`boolean` flag, to specify if URL should be used as is (without encoding, decoding and escaping)

Methods

appendRawPath(String encodedPath)

public void appendRawPath(String encodedPath)

Appends the given raw encoded path to the current #pathParts, setting field only if it is null or empty.

The last part of the #pathParts is merged with the first part of the path parts computed from the given encoded path. Thus, if the current raw encoded path is "a", and the given encoded path is "b", then the resulting raw encoded path is "ab".

Parameter

Name	Description
encodedPath	`String` raw encoded path or `null` to ignore

build()

public final String build()

Constructs the string representation of the URL, including the path specified by #pathParts and the query parameters specified by this generic URL.

Returns

Type	Description
String

buildAuthority()

public final String buildAuthority()

Constructs the portion of the URL containing the scheme, host and port.

For the URL "http://example.com/something?action=add" this method would return "http://example.com".

Returns

Type	Description
String	scheme://[user-info@]host[:port]

buildRelativeUrl()

public final String buildRelativeUrl()

Constructs the portion of the URL beginning at the rooted path.

For the URL "http://example.com/something?action=add" this method would return "/something?action=add".

Returns

Type	Description
String	path with with leading '/' if the path is non-empty, query parameters and fragment

clone()

public GenericUrl clone()

Makes a "deep" clone of the generic data, in which the clone is completely independent of the original.

Returns

Type	Description
GenericUrl

Overrides

GenericData.clone()

equals(Object obj)

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Parameter

Name	Description
obj	`Object`

Returns

Type	Description
boolean

Overrides

GenericData.equals(Object o)

getAll(String name)

public Collection<Object> getAll(String name)

Returns all query parameter values for the given query parameter name.

Parameter

Name	Description

Returns

Type	Description
Collection<Object>	unmodifiable collection of query parameter values (possibly empty)

getFirst(String name)

public Object getFirst(String name)

Returns the first query parameter value for the given query parameter name.

Parameter

Name	Description
name	`String` query parameter name

Returns

Type	Description
Object	first query parameter value

getFragment()

public String getFragment()

Returns the fragment component or null for none.

set(String fieldName, Object value)

public GenericUrl set(String fieldName, Object value)

Sets the given field value (may be null) for the given field name. Any existing value for the field will be overwritten. It may be more slightly more efficient than #put(String, Object) because it avoids accessing the field's original value.

Overriding is only supported for the purpose of calling the super implementation and changing the return type, but nothing else.

Parameters

Name	Description

value	`Object`

Returns

Type	Description
GenericUrl

Overrides

GenericData.set(String fieldName, Object value)
