Interface FlamingockMetadataProvider

public interface FlamingockMetadataProvider

Service Provider Interface registered per Flamingock-aware module.

Each module's annotation processor generates an implementation of this interface and declares it in META-INF/services/io.flamingock.internal.common.core.metadata .FlamingockMetadataProvider. At runtime the MetadataLoader discovers all providers via ServiceLoader and aggregates each module's metadata file into a single composite FlamingockMetadata consumed by the runner.

Providers are stateless: they only advertise the resource path of the metadata file they own. The path is module-unique (suffixed at compile time) so multiple modules can coexist on the same classpath without colliding.

Method Detail

getMetadataResourcePath

java.lang.String getMetadataResourcePath()

Returns:

the classpath resource path where this module's serialized FlamingockMetadata JSON file lives, e.g. "META-INF/flamingock/metadata_a1b2c3d4.json". Loaders use this with ClassLoader.getResourceAsStream(String).

getReflectClassesResourcePath

default java.lang.String getReflectClassesResourcePath()

Returns:

the classpath resource path where this module's GraalVM reflection-classes file lives. Default implementation derives the path from getMetadataResourcePath() by replacing the metadata_ segment with reflection-classes_ and the .json extension with .txt. Generated providers may override if their layout differs.
