Class Parameter

Class Documentation

class SmartPeak::Parameter

This class holds parameter to use with the commands. Value can be validated, applaying constraints, through a schema (another Parameter).

Public Functions

inline Parameter(const std::string &name)

uninitialized parameter constructor

inline Parameter(const std::string &name, const CastValue &value)

constructor from CastValue

Parameter(const std::map<std::string, std::string> &properties)

constructor from map

example of structure:

{ {“name”, “param1”}, {“type”, “int”}, {“value”, “23”}, {“description”, “param1 description”}, {“tags”, “tag1,tag2,tag3”} {“min”,”0”}, {“max”,”10”} }

std::string getType() const

returns the type of parameter as string

bool isValid(bool use_scheme = true) const

based constraints of this parameter, return wether the parameter is valid.

Parameters

use_scheme – [in] use a schema to validate the value, if one is assigned to the parameter.

bool isValid(const CastValue &value, bool use_scheme = true) const

based constraints of this parameter, return wether the parameter is valid.

Parameters

  • value – [in] a CastValue to valid with the constraints of this parameter.

  • use_scheme – [in] use a schema’s constraint to validate the value, if one is assigned to the parameter.

inline void setName(const std::string &name)

set name of the parameter.

Parameters

name – [in] the name of the parameter.

inline const std::string &getName() const

get name of the parameter.

inline void setConstraintsMinMax(const std::shared_ptr<CastValue> &min, const std::shared_ptr<CastValue> &max)

set constraints min and max.

inline void setConstraintsList(const std::shared_ptr<std::vector<CastValue>> &list)

set constraints list.

void setValueFromString(const std::string &value_as_string, bool allow_change_type = true)

set value of the parameter, from a string representation.

Parameters

  • value_as_string – [in] the value, as string

  • allow_change_type – [in] if true, change also the type if the value suggest it. if false, a cast may be tried.

inline const std::string getValueAsString() const

return value of the parameter.

inline void setDescription(const std::string &description)

sets description of the parameter.

inline const std::string &getDescription(bool use_scheme = true) const

get the description of the parameter.

Parameters

use_scheme – [in] if one schema is associated, use it as description

inline void setSchema(const Parameter &schema)

sets schema to this parameter.

inline const Parameter *getSchema() const

returns schema if this parameter.

inline void setTags(const std::vector<std::string> &tags)

set tags.

Parameters

tags – [in] the list of tags

inline const std::vector<std::string> &getTags(bool use_scheme = true) const

get tags.

Parameters

use_scheme – [in] if set, and if a schema is assigned to this parameter, returns the tags of the schema

const std::string getRestrictionsAsString(bool use_scheme = true) const

get restrictions of the parameter, as a string representation.

Parameters

use_scheme – [in] if set, and if a schema is assigned to this parameter, returns the restriction of the schema.

inline void setAsSchema(bool is_schema)

set parameter as schema.

inline bool isSchema() const

return wether the parameter is schema.

inline const std::string getDefaultValueAsString() const

return default value of the parameter (if schema is assigned).

const std::vector<CastValue> getValidStrings(bool use_scheme = true) const

return valid strings

Parameters

use_scheme – [in] if set, and if a schema is assigned to this parameter, returns the valid strings of the schema.
