Interface StepNamingPolicy

Functional Interface:
This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.
@FunctionalInterface public interface StepNamingPolicy

Slightly-over-engineered way of determining an implicit name, if possible, for a step definition.

Putting this logic in its own 'unit' makes it a little easier for us to reuse this logic across modules. I don't expect this API needs to last - once we've changed our pipeline APIs to go from AST->RealizedPipeline in one call, we can probably drop this interface

  • Method Details

    • broaden

      static Function<StepDeclaration,String> broaden(Function<StepDefinition,String> stepNameFunction)
      Returns:
      a function that broadens the argument type of the given function so that it will return the name of any step declaration, not just a definition.

    • getStepNameFunction

      Function<StepDefinition,String> getStepNameFunction(PipelineDeclaration ast)
      Returns:
      a function that gives the name for a step definition, returning a unique generated name if none was assigned. Should return explicitly assigned names, too, to make name lookup logic simpler. The function will be particular to the given ast - do not reuse it for different ones!
