Overview

It’s useful when dealing with the Rets standard to represent their relatively flat namespace of interweived components as a Tree. With a collection of resources at the top, and their various, classes, tables, lookups, and lookup types underneath.

It looks something like …

Resource
 |
Class
 |
 `-- Table
 |
 `-- Lookups
       |
       `-- LookupType

For our purposes it was helpful to denormalize some of the more deeply nested branches. In particular by relating Lookups to LookupTypes, and Tables to lookups with can simplify this diagram.

Resource
 |
Class
 |
 `-- Table
      |
      `-- Lookups

By associating Tables and lookups when we parse this structure. It allows us to seemlessly map Lookup values to their Long or Short value forms.

#initialize(logger, sources) ⇒ Root

fetcher is a proc that inverts control to the client to retrieve metadata types

def initialize(logger, sources)
  @logger = logger
  @tree = nil
  @metadata_types = nil # TODO think up a better name ... containers?
  @sources = sources
end

Instance Attribute Details

#loggerObject (readonly)

Metadata can be unmarshalled from cache. @logger is not set during that process, constructor is not called. Client code must set it after unmarshalling.

  sources.each do |name, source|
    h[name.downcase.to_sym] = build_containers(Nokogiri.parse(source))
  end

  @metadata_types = h
end

#sourcesObject (readonly)

Sources are the raw xml documents fetched for each metadata type they are stored as a hash with the type names as their keys and the raw xml as the values

#current?(current_timestamp, current_version) ⇒ Boolean

Wether there exists a more up to date version of the metadata to fetch is dependant on either a timestamp indicating when the most recent version was published, or a version number. These values may or may not exist on any given rets server.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)
