Interface AvailabilityQuerySession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession
All Known Subinterfaces:
AvailabilitySearchSession
public interface AvailabilityQuerySession extends OsidSession

This session provides methods for searching among Availability objects. The search query is constructed using the AvailabilityQuery .

This session defines views that offer differing behaviors for searching.

  • federated foundry view: searches include availabilities in foundries of which this foundry is an ancestor in the foundry hierarchy
  • isolated foundry view: searches are restricted to availabilities in this foundry

Availabilities may have a query record indicated by their respective record types. The query record is accessed via the AvailabilityQuery .

    • getFoundryId

      Id getFoundryId()
      Gets the Foundry Id associated with this session.
      Returns:
      the Foundry Id associated with this session
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.

    • getFoundry

      Foundry getFoundry() throws OperationFailedException, PermissionDeniedException
      Gets the Foundry associated with this session.
      Returns:
      the foundry
      Throws:
      OperationFailedException - unable to complete request

      Returns:
      false if search methods are not authorized, true otherwise
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.

    • useFederatedFoundryView

      void useFederatedFoundryView()
      Federates the view for methods in this session. A federated view will include availabilities in foundries which are children of this foundry in the foundry hierarchy.
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method is must be implemented.

    • useIsolatedFoundryView

      void useIsolatedFoundryView()
      Isolates the view for methods in this session. An isolated view restricts lookups to this foundry only.
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method is must be implemented.

    • getAvailabilityQuery

      AvailabilityQuery getAvailabilityQuery()
      Gets an availability query.
      Returns:
      the availability query
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.

    • getAvailabilitiesByQuery

      AvailabilityList getAvailabilitiesByQuery(AvailabilityQuery availabilityQuery) throws OperationFailedException, PermissionDeniedException
      Gets a list of Availabilities matching the given availability query.
      Parameters:
      availabilityQuery - the availability query
      Returns:
      the returned AvailabilityList
      Throws:
      NullArgumentException - availabilityQuery is null
      OperationFailedException - unable to complete request
      PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure
      UnsupportedException - availabilityQuery is not of this service
