Key-value Template

The key value is a bridge between the entity and the key-value database.

KeyValueTemplate

The KeyValueTemplate is the column template to synchronous tasks. It has three components:

The KeyValueTemplate is responsible for persistency of an entity in a key-value database. It is composed basically for three components.

• KeyValueEntityConverter: That converts an entity to communication API, e.g., The Person to KeyValueEntity.

• BucketManager: The Diana column key-value entity manager.

• KeyValueWorkflow: The workflow to update and save methods.

KeyValueTemplate template = null;
User user = new User();
user.setNickname("ada");
user.setAge(10);
user.setName("Ada Lovelace");
List<User> users = Collections.singletonList(user);

template.put(user);
template.put(users);

Optional<Person> ada = template.get("ada", Person.class);
Iterable<Person> usersFound = template.get(Collections.singletonList("ada"), Person.class);

To use a key-value template just follows the CDI style and put an @Inject on the field.

@Inject
private KeyValueTemplate template;

The next step is to produce a BucketManager:

@Produces
public BucketManager getManager() {
    BucketManager manager = //instance
    return manager;
}

To work with more than one key-value Template, there are two approaches:

1) Using qualifieres:

    @Inject
    @Database(value = DatabaseType.KEY_VALUE, provider = "databaseA")
    private KeyValueTemplate templateA;

    @Inject
    @Database(value = DatabaseType.KEY_VALUE, provider = "databaseB")
    private KeyValueTemplate templateB;


    //producers methods
    @Produces
    @Database(value = DatabaseType.KEY_VALUE, provider = "databaseA")
    public BucketManager getManagerA() {
        DocumentCollectionManager manager =//instance
        return manager;
    }

    @Produces
    @Database(value = DatabaseType.KEY_VALUE, provider = "databaseB")
    public DocumentCollectionManager getManagerB() {
        BucketManager manager = //instance
        return manager;
    }

2) Using the KeyValueTemplateProducer class

@Inject
private KeyValueTemplateProducer producer;

public void sample() {
   BucketManager managerA = //instance;
   BucketManager managerB = //instance
   KeyValueTemplate templateA = producer.get(managerA);
   KeyValueTemplate templateB = producer.get(managerB);
}
