A Matcher must implement the "IHeaderMatcher" interface and its associated Builder must implement the IHeaderMatcher.Builder interface. + +* A simple example + +** The Matcher implementation + + For our example we will implement a Matcher that implements the phrase "Quality, speed and cost, pick any two” by looking for the occurrence of all three words anywhere in the header. + In most cases is it simplest to extend the AbstractHeaderMatcher class as this class will handle setting of the unique ID for instances that do not otherwise have a unique id. + ++------------------------------------------+ +public interface IHeaderMatcher extends Component { + /** + * Get the identifier for this matcher. + * <p> + * All matchers must have unique identifiers + * </p> + * + * @return the Identifier for this matcher. + */ + String getId(); + + /** + * Resets this state of this matcher to its initial state in preparation for + * use with another document scan. In most cases this method does not need to + * do anything. + */ + default void reset() { + // does nothing. + } + + /** + * Attempts to match text in the IHeaders instance. + * + * @param headers the representations of the headers to check + * @return {@code true} if the matcher matches the text, {@code false} otherwise. + */ + boolean matches(IHeaders headers); +} ++------------------------------------------+ + ++------------------------------------------+ +public abstract class AbstractHeaderMatcher implements IHeaderMatcher { + + @ConfigComponent(type = Component.Type.Parameter, desc = "The id of the matcher.") + private final String id; + + /** + * Constructs the IHeaderMatcher with an id value. If {@code id} is null then a + * unique random id is created. + * + * @param id the Id to use. + */ + protected AbstractHeaderMatcher(String id) { + this.id = StringUtils.isBlank(id) ? UUID.randomUUID().toString() : id; + } + + @Override + public String getId() { + return id; + } + + @Override + public String toString() { + return getId(); + } + + @Override + public Description getDescription() { + return DescriptionBuilder.build(this); + } +} ++------------------------------------------+ + + So lets start by creating our matcher class and implementing the match method. + ++------------------------------------------+ +package com.example.ratMatcher; + +import org.apache.rat.analysis.IHeaders; +import org.apache.rat.analysis.matchers.AbstractHeaderMatcher; +import org.apache.rat.config.parameters.Component; +import org.apache.rat.config.parameters.ConfigComponent; + +@ConfigComponent(type = Component.Type.Matcher, name = "QSC", desc = "Reports if the 'Quality, speed and cost, pick any two' rule is violated") +public class QSCMatcher extends AbstraactHeaderMatcher { + + public QSCMatcher(String id) { + super(id); + } + + @Override + public boolean matches(IHeaders headers) { + String text = headers.prune() + return text.contains("quality") && text.contains("speed") && text.contains("cost"); + } +} ++------------------------------------------+ + + In the above example we use the ConfigComponent annotation to identify that this is a Matcher component, that it has the name 'QSC' and a description of what it does. + If the "name" was not specified it would have been extracted from the class name by removing the "Matcher" from "QSCMatcher". + + The Constructor calls the AbstractHeaderMatcher with a null argument so tha the parent class will assign an id. + + The matcher uses the pruned text to check for the strings. Pruned text has only the letters and numbers from the text included and all characters are converted to + lower case. There is an issue with this matcher in that it would match the string: "The quality of Dennis Hopper's acting, as Keanu Reeves costar in 'Speed', is outstanding." + + the correction of that is left as an exercise for the reader. Hint: matching the pruned text can be a quick gating check for a set of more expensive regular expression checks. + +** The Matcher.Builder implementation + + The builder must implement the IHeaderMatcher.Builder interface. + ++------------------------------------------+ +@FunctionalInterface Review Comment: same as above I'd prefer to directly link to RAT sources/interfaces/classes via Gitbox instead of copy&pasting them here. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
