Methods

(inner) constantsGenerator(inputData, inputMetaData) → {array.<boolean, (string|integer|boolean|object|array)>}

Requests a string input the user would like to have converted nto a constant, while determining the most optimized way to define the new constant based on existing constants. Also checks to see if that new constant is already defined in the constants system.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
inputData string

Parameterized constant to generate for.

inputMetaData string

Not used for this business rule.

Returns:

An array with a boolean True or False value to indicate if the application should exit or not exit, followed by the command output.

Type
array.<boolean, (string|integer|boolean|object|array)>

(inner) constantsGeneratorList(inputData, inputMetaData) → {array.<boolean, (string|integer|boolean|object|array)>}

Calls the constantsGenerator command to iterate over a list of constants and generate many constants sequentially.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
inputData string

Parameterized coma delimited list of constants to be auto-generated

inputMetaData string

Not used for this business rule.

Returns:

An array with a boolean True or False value to indicate if the application should exit or not exit, followed by the command output.

Type
array.<boolean, (string|integer|boolean|object|array)>

(inner) constantsPatternRecognizer(inputData, inputMetaData) → {array.<boolean, (string|integer|boolean|object|array)>}

Walks through a list of constants looking for patterns internal to the strings.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
inputData string

Parameterized coma delimited list of constants to be passed through pattern recognition to find common strings among them.

inputMetaData string

Returns:

An array with a boolean True or False value to indicate if the application should exit or not exit, followed by the command output.

Type
array.<boolean, (string|integer|boolean|object|array)>

(inner) evaluateConstant(inputData, inputMetaData) → {array.<boolean, (string|integer|boolean|object|array)>}

Resolves a constant and prints the output of the constant value.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
inputData array.<string>

A string array that contains the name of the constant that should be resolved and printed. inputData[0] = evaluateConstant inputData[1] = constantToBeEvaluated - The constant that should be resolved and printed to the output if it exists.

inputMetaData string

Not used for this command.
