Java naming convention
Getters and setters
- Getters (get, is)
- Takes no parameters
- Does not alter the object in any way; it is constant
- Can be called multiple times, and in any order
- Returns a consistent single result
- Setters (set)
- Takes one parameter
- May or may not alter the object
- Only affects the object that has the setter; it does not persist anywhere else
- Can be called multiple times, and in any order
public String getName() {
return this.name;
}
Finders & filters
- Finders (find)
- Takes zero or more arguments (which act as filter or sorting controls)
- Does not alter the object in any way; it is constant
- Can be called multiple times, and in any order
- Returns a consistent, single, non-null collection result (or an empty Optional) - never null
Factories
- Factories
- Responsible for creating objects - not persisting them!
- Are stateless
- Factory classes
- Conform to [ObjectType]Factory naming convention
- Factory methods
- Conform to create[ObjectType] naming convention
Other
- Populator methods (imbue)
- Only modify the object(s) passed as arguments
- Does not affect the object's state
Persistance
- Repositories
- Conform to [ObjectType]Repository naming convention
- Methods such as save*, load*, find*, read*, write*, delete*
