Constructor Detail

JsonPointer

public JsonPointer(String input)
            throws JsonPointerException

The main constructor

Parameters:

input - the input string

Throws:

JsonPointerException - malformed JSON Pointer

NullPointerException - null input

JsonPointer

public JsonPointer(List<TokenResolver<JsonNode>> tokenResolvers)

Alternate constructor

This calls TreePointer.TreePointer(com.fasterxml.jackson.core.TreeNode, java.util.List) with a MissingNode as the missing tree node.

Parameters:

tokenResolvers - the list of token resolvers

Method Detail

empty

public static JsonPointer empty()

Return an empty JSON Pointer

Returns:

an empty, statically allocated JSON Pointer

of

public static JsonPointer of(Object first,
             Object... other)

Build a JSON Pointer out of a series of reference tokens

These tokens can be everything; be sure however that they implement Object.toString() correctly!

Each of these tokens are treated as raw tokens (ie, not encoded).

Parameters:

first - the first token

other - other tokens

Returns:

a JSON Pointer

Throws:

NullPointerException - one input token is null

append

public JsonPointer append(String raw)

Return a new pointer with a new token appended

Parameters:

raw - the raw token to append

Returns:

a new pointer

Throws:

NullPointerException - input is null

append

public JsonPointer append(int index)

Return a new pointer with a new integer token appended

Parameters:

index - the integer token to append

Returns:

a new pointer

append

public JsonPointer append(JsonPointer other)

Return a new pointer with another pointer appended

Parameters:

other - the other pointer

Returns:

a new pointer

Throws:

NullPointerException - other pointer is null
