      The Flowable view of a ChangeRecordReader.

    • newEntryPublisher

      public static Flowable<Entry> newEntryPublisher(Supplier<? extends EntryReader> factory)
      Returns a Flowable view of a EntryReader, creating a new reader for each subscriber.
      Parameters:

    • copyTo

      public static ChangeRecordWriter copyTo(ChangeRecordReader input, ChangeRecordWriter output) throws IOException
      Copies the content of input to output. This method does not close input or output.
      Parameters:
      input - The input change record reader.
      output - The output change record reader.
      Returns:
      The output change record reader.
      Throws:
      IOException - If an unexpected IO error occurred.

    • copyTo

      public static EntryWriter copyTo(EntryReader input, EntryWriter output) throws IOException
      Copies the content of input to output. This method does not close input or output.
      Parameters:
      input - The input entry reader.
      output - The output entry reader.
      Returns:
      The output entry reader.
      Throws:
      IOException - If an unexpected IO error occurred.

    • diff

      public static ChangeRecordReader diff(EntryReader source, EntryReader target) throws IOException
      Compares the content of source to the content of target and returns the differences in a change record reader. Closing the returned reader will cause source and target to be closed as well.

      NOTE: this method reads the content of source and target into memory before calculating the differences, and is therefore not suited for use in cases where a very large number of entries are to be compared.

      Parameters:
      source - The entry reader containing the source entries to be compared.
      target - The entry reader containing the target entries to be compared.
      Returns:
      A change record reader containing the differences.
      Throws:
      IOException - If an unexpected IO error occurred.

    • diff

      public static ChangeRecordReader diff(EntryReader source, EntryReader target, Options options) throws IOException
      Compares the content of source to the content of target and returns the differences in a change record reader. Closing the returned reader will cause source and target to be closed as well.

      NOTE: this method reads the content of source and target into memory before calculating the differences, and is therefore not suited for use in cases where a very large number of entries are to be compared.

      Parameters:
      source - The entry reader containing the source entries to be compared.
      target - The entry reader containing the target entries to be compared.
      options - Options to control how entries are compared.
      Returns:
      A change record reader containing the differences.
      Throws:
      IOException - If an unexpected IO error occurred.

      Parameters:
      changes - The change record collection.
      Returns:
      A change record reader over the provided change record collection.

    • newChangeRecordReader

      public static ChangeRecordReader newChangeRecordReader(Iterator<? extends ChangeRecord> changes)

      Returns:
      A change record reader over the provided change record iterator.

    • newEntryReader

      public static EntryReader newEntryReader(Iterable<? extends Entry> entries)

    • patch

      public static EntryReader patch(EntryReader input, ChangeRecordReader patch) throws IOException
      Applies the set of changes contained in patch to the content of input and returns the result in an entry reader. This method ignores missing entries, and overwrites existing entries. Closing the returned reader will cause input and patch to be closed as well.

      NOTE: this method reads the content of input into memory before applying the changes, and is therefore not suited for use in cases where a very large number of entries are to be patched.

      NOTE: this method will not perform modifications required in order to maintain referential integrity. In particular, if an entry references another entry using a DN valued attribute and the referenced entry is deleted, then the DN reference will not be removed. The same applies to renamed entries and their references.

      Parameters:
      input - The entry reader containing the set of entries to be patched.
      patch - The change record reader containing the set of changes to be applied.
      Returns:
      An entry reader containing the patched entries.
      Throws:
      IOException - If an unexpected IO error occurred.

    • patch

      public static EntryReader patch(EntryReader input, ChangeRecordReader patch, RejectedChangeRecordListener listener) throws IOException
      Applies the set of changes contained in patch to the content of input and returns the result in an entry reader. Closing the returned reader will cause input and patch to be closed as well.

      NOTE: this method reads the content of input into memory before applying the changes, and is therefore not suited for use in cases where a very large number of entries are to be patched.

      NOTE: this method will not perform modifications required in order to maintain referential integrity. In particular, if an entry references another entry using a DN valued attribute and the referenced entry is deleted, then the DN reference will not be removed. The same applies to renamed entries and their references.

      Parameters:
      input - The entry reader containing the set of entries to be patched.
      patch - The change record reader containing the set of changes to be applied.
      listener - The rejected change listener.
      Returns:
      An entry reader containing the patched entries.
      Throws:
      IOException - If an unexpected IO error occurred.

    • search

      public static EntryReader search(EntryReader input, SearchRequest search)
      Returns a filtered view of input containing only those entries which match the search base DN, scope, and filtered defined in search. In addition, returned entries will be filtered according to any attribute filtering criteria defined in the search request.

      The filter and attribute descriptions will be decoded using the default schema.

      Parameters:
      input - The entry reader containing the set of entries to be filtered.
      search - The search request defining the filtering criteria.
      Returns:
      A filtered view of input containing only those entries which match the provided search request.

      The filter and attribute descriptions will be decoded using the provided schema.

      Parameters:
      input - The entry reader containing the set of entries to be filtered.
      search - The search request defining the filtering criteria.
      schema - The schema which should be used to decode the search filter and attribute descriptions.
