TapestryInternalUtils

public TapestryInternalUtils()

Method Detail

toUserPresentable

public static String toUserPresentable(String id)

Capitalizes the string, and inserts a space before each upper case character (or sequence of upper case characters). Thus "userId" becomes "User Id", etc. Also, converts underscore into space (and capitalizes the following word), thus "user_id" also becomes "User Id".

mapFromKeysAndValues

public static Map<String,String> mapFromKeysAndValues(String... keysAndValues)

toOptionModel

public static OptionModel toOptionModel(String input)

Converts a string to an OptionModel. The string is of the form "value=label". If the equals sign is omitted, then the same value is used for both value and label.

Parameters:

input -

Returns:

toOptionModels

public static List<OptionModel> toOptionModels(String input)

Parses a string input into a series of value=label pairs compatible with toOptionModel(String). Splits on commas. Ignores whitespace around commas.

Parameters:

input - comma seperated list of terms

Returns:

list of option models

toSelectModel

public static SelectModel toSelectModel(String input)

Wraps the result of toOptionModels(String) as a SelectModel (with no option groups).

Parameters:

input -

Returns:

toOptionModel

public static OptionModel toOptionModel(Map.Entry input)

Converts a map entry to an OptionModel.

Parameters:

input -

Returns:

toOptionModels

public static <K,V> List<OptionModel> toOptionModels(Map<K,V> input)

Processes a map input into a series of map entries compatible with toOptionModel(Map.Entry).

Parameters:

input - map of elements

Returns:

list of option models

toSelectModel

public static <K,V> SelectModel toSelectModel(Map<K,V> input)

Wraps the result of toOptionModels(Map) as a SelectModel (with no option groups).

Parameters:

input -

Returns:

toOptionModel

public static OptionModel toOptionModel(Object input)

Converts an object to an OptionModel.

Parameters:

input -

Returns:

toOptionModels

public static <E> List<OptionModel> toOptionModels(List<E> input)

Processes a list input into a series of objects compatible with toOptionModel(Object).

Parameters:

input - list of elements

Returns:

list of option models

toSelectModel

public static <E> SelectModel toSelectModel(List<E> input)

Wraps the result of toOptionModels(List) as a SelectModel (with no option groups).

Parameters:

input -

Returns:

parseKeyValue

public static KeyValue parseKeyValue(String input)

Parses a key/value pair where the key and the value are seperated by an equals sign. The key and value are trimmed of leading and trailing whitespace, and returned as a KeyValue.

Parameters:

input -

Returns:

extractIdFromPropertyExpression

public static String extractIdFromPropertyExpression(String expression)

Used to convert a property expression into a key that can be used to locate various resources (Blocks, messages, etc.). Strips out any punctuation characters, leaving just words characters (letters, number and the underscore).

Parameters:

expression - a property expression

Returns:

the expression with punctuation removed

defaultLabel

public static String defaultLabel(String id,
                                  Messages messages,
                                  String propertyExpression)

Looks for a label within the messages based on the id. If found, it is used, otherwise the name is converted to a user presentable form.

lastTerm

public static String lastTerm(String input)

Strips a dotted sequence (such as a property expression, or a qualified class name) down to the last term of that expression, by locating the last period ('.') in the string.

toClassAttributeValue

Converts an list of strings into a space-separated string combining them all, suitable for use as an HTML class attribute value.

Parameters:

getLabelForEnum

public static String getLabelForEnum(Messages messages,

Parameters:

left - value to compare, possibly null

right - value to compare, possibly null

Returns:

true if same value, both null, or equal

splitPath

public static String[] splitPath(String path)

Splits a path at each slash.

splitAtCommas
