void	process(KnotContext knotContext, io.vertx.core.Handler<io.vertx.core.AsyncResult<KnotContext>> result)
protected abstract KnotContext	processError(KnotContext knotContext, Throwable error) Handles any Exception thrown during processing, and is responsible for preparing the proper KnotContext on such occasions, these will simply finish processing flows, as any error generated by a Knot will be immediately returned to the page visitor.
protected abstract io.reactivex.Single<KnotContext>	processRequest(KnotContext knotContext) Consumes a KnotContext messages from the Server and returns modified, processed context.
protected abstract boolean	shouldProcess(Set<String> knots) Method lets you decide whether the Fragment should be processed by your Knot or not.

Method Detail

process

public void process(KnotContext knotContext,
                    io.vertx.core.Handler<io.vertx.core.AsyncResult<KnotContext>> result)

Specified by:

process in interface KnotProxy

processRequest

protected abstract io.reactivex.Single<KnotContext> processRequest(KnotContext knotContext)

Consumes a KnotContext messages from the Server and returns modified, processed context. Basically this method is responsible for the whole business logic that your Knot will be performing.

Parameters:

knotContext - message from the Server with processing context.

Returns:

a Single that emits a processed and modified KnotContext.

shouldProcess

protected abstract boolean shouldProcess(Set<String> knots)

Method lets you decide whether the Fragment should be processed by your Knot or not.

Parameters:

knots - set of all Knots names that occurred in the current KnotContext.

Returns:

true if this Knot should process current KnotContext.

processError

protected abstract KnotContext processError(KnotContext knotContext,
                                            Throwable error)

Handles any Exception thrown during processing, and is responsible for preparing the proper KnotContext on such occasions, these will simply finish processing flows, as any error generated by a Knot will be immediately returned to the page visitor.

Parameters:

knotContext - current context.

error - the error that just occurred.

Returns:

context prepared with proper content that notifies about the error and incorrect processing.
