Our Key scheme is inspired by file systems and Google App Engine key model. Keys are meant to be unique across a system. Keys are hierarchical, incorporating more and more specific namespaces. Thus keys can be deemed 'children' or 'ancestors' of other keys:: Key("/Comedy") Key("/Comedy/MontyPython") Also, every namespace can be parametrized to embed relevant object information. For example, the Key `name` (most specific namespace) could include the object type:: Key("/Comedy/MontyPython/Actor:JohnCleese") Key("/Comedy/MontyPython/Sketch:CheeseShop") Key("/Comedy/MontyPython/Sketch:CheeseShop/Character:Mousebender") */ type Key struct { string } func NewKey(s string) Key { k := Key{s} k.Clean() return k } // Cleans up a Key, using path.Clean. func (k *Key) Clean() { k.string = path.Clean("/" + k.string) } // Returns the string value of Key func (k Key) String() string { return k.string } // Returns the bytes value of Key func (k Key) Bytes() []byte { return []byte(k.string) } // Returns the `list` representation of this Key. // NewKey("/Comedy/MontyPython/Actor:JohnCleese").List() // ["Comedy", "MontyPythong", "Actor:JohnCleese"] func (k Key) List() []string { return strings.Split(k.string, "/")[1:] } // Returns the reverse of this Key. // NewKey("/Comedy/MontyPython/Actor:JohnCleese").Reverse() // NewKey("/Actor:JohnCleese/MontyPython/Comedy") func (k Key) Reverse() Key { l := k.List() r := make([]string, len(l), len(l)) for i, e := range l { r[len(l)-i-1] = e } return NewKey(strings.Join(r, "/")) } // Returns the `namespaces` making up this Key. // NewKey("/Comedy/MontyPython/Actor:JohnCleese").List() // ["Comedy", "MontyPythong", "Actor:JohnCleese"] func (k Key) Namespaces() []string { return k.List() } // Returns the "base" namespace of this key (like path.Base(filename)) // NewKey("/Comedy/MontyPython/Actor:JohnCleese").BaseNamespace() // "Actor:JohnCleese" func (k Key) BaseNamespace() string { n := k.Namespaces() return n[len(n)-1] } // Returns the "type" of this key (value of last namespace). // NewKey("/Comedy/MontyPython/Actor:JohnCleese").List() // "Actor" func (k Key) Type() string { return NamespaceType(k.BaseNamespace()) } // Returns the "name" of this key (field of last namespace). // NewKey("/Comedy/MontyPython/Actor:JohnCleese").List() // "Actor" func (k Key) Name() string { return NamespaceValue(k.BaseNamespace()) } // Returns an "instance" of this type key (appends value to namespace). // NewKey("/Comedy/MontyPython/Actor:JohnCleese").List() // "JohnCleese" func (k Key) Instance(s string) Key { return NewKey(k.string + ":" + s) } // Returns the "path" of this key (parent + type). // NewKey("/Comedy/MontyPython/Actor:JohnCleese").Path() // NewKey("/Comedy/MontyPython/Actor") func (k Key) Path() Key { s := k.Parent().string + "/" + NamespaceType(k.BaseNamespace()) return NewKey(s) } // Returns the `parent` Key of this Key. // NewKey("/Comedy/MontyPython/Actor:JohnCleese").Parent() // NewKey("/Comedy/MontyPython") func (k Key) Parent() Key { n := k.List() if len(n) == 1 { return NewKey("/") } return NewKey(strings.Join(n[:len(n)-1], "/")) } // Returns the `child` Key of this Key. // NewKey("/Comedy/MontyPython").Child("Actor:JohnCleese") // NewKey("/Comedy/MontyPython/Actor:JohnCleese") func (k Key) Child(s string) Key { return NewKey(k.string + "/" + s) } // Returns whether this key is an ancestor of `other` // NewKey("/Comedy").IsAncestorOf("/Comedy/MontyPython") // true func (k Key) IsAncestorOf(other Key) bool { if other.string == k.string { return false } return strings.HasPrefix(other.string, k.string) } // Returns whether this key is a descendent of `other` // NewKey("/Comedy/MontyPython").IsDescendantOf("/Comedy") // true func (k Key) IsDescendantOf(other Key) bool { if other.string == k.string { return false } return strings.HasPrefix(k.string, other.string) } func (k Key) IsTopLevel() bool { return len(k.List()) == 1 } // Returns a randomly (uuid) generated key. // RandomKey() // NewKey("/f98719ea086343f7b71f32ea9d9d521d") func RandomKey() Key { return NewKey(strings.Replace(uuid.New(), "-", "", -1)) } /* A Key Namespace is like a path element.
