Vaporetto

Build Status Maven Central

Very lightweight proxy-based immutable value types for Java 8. (Compare phantom-pojos, an earlier iteration of the same idea).

Define types as follows:

public interface Address extends VType<Address> {
    Collection<String> addressLines();
    String postcode();
}

public interface Person extends VType<Person> {
    String name();
    int age();
    Address address();
}

Build values like this:

Person person = Vaporetto.build(Person.class, p -> p
    .with(Person::name, "Arthur Putey")
    .with(Person::age, 42)
    .with(Person::address, a -> a
        .with(Address::addressLines, "23 Acacia Avenue", "Sunderland")
        .with(Address::postcode, "VB6 5UX")));

Update values like this:

Person updated = person.update(p -> p
    .with(Person::age, 43));

Reify properties into lenses like this:

Property<Person, Address> address = Property.of(Person.class, Person::address);
Property<Address, String> postcode = Property.of(Address.class, Address::postcode);
Property<Person, String> addressPostcode = address.chain(postcode);

// OR
Property<Person, String> addressPostcode = Property.of(
    Property.of(Person.class, Person::Address),
    Address::postcode);

assertThat(addressPostcode.get(person), equalTo("VB6 5UX"));

Person updatedPerson = addressPostcode.update(person, "RA8 81T");
assertThat(updatedPerson.address().postcode(), equalTo("RA8 81T"));

vaporetto's Issues

What does 'lightweight' mean?

This library is described as "very lightweight". 'Lightweight' is one of those terms that is clearly good, but which doesn't have a universally agreed specific meaning. If the readme could expand on what it means in this context, it might help potential users evaluate whether this library was right for them.

Add support for other collection types than List

Nice approach for a builder!

I've noticed that a ClassCastException is raised when changing the type of addressLines from List to Set. You'd likely have to choose an implementation type based on the type of the referenced property.

Also support for Map-typed properties would be cool.
