eav sparse open schema

shared by kuni katsuya on 01 Jul 12 - Cached
  • Entity–attribute–value model
  • Entity–attribute–value model (EAV) is a data model to describe entities where the number of attributes (properties, parameters) that can be used to describe them is potentially vast, but the number that will actually apply to a given entity is relatively modest
  • also known as object–attribute–value model, vertical database model and open schema
  • ...21 more annotations...
  • In an EAV data model, each attribute-value pair is a fact describing an entity, and a row in an EAV table stores a single fact
  • EAV tables are often described as "long and skinny": "long" refers to the number of rows, "skinny" to the few columns
  • Data is recorded as three columns: The entity: the item being described. The attribute or parameter: a foreign key into a table of attribute definitions. At the very least, the attribute definitions table would contain the following columns: an attribute ID, attribute name, description, data type, and columns assisting input validation
  • The value of the attribute
  • Row modeling, where facts about something (in this case, a sales transaction) are recorded as multiple rows rather than multiple columns
  • differences between row modeling and EAV (which may be considered a generalization of row-modeling) are:
  • A row-modeled table is homogeneous in the facts that it describes
  • The data type of the value column/s in a row-modeled table is pre-determined by the nature of the facts it records. By contrast, in an EAV table, the conceptual data type of a value in a particular row depend on the attribute in that row
  • In the EAV table itself, this is just an attribute ID, a foreign key into an Attribute Definitions table
  • The Attribute
  • The Value
  • Coercing all values into strings
  • larger systems use separate EAV tables for each data type (including binary large objects, "BLOBS"), with the metadata for a given attribute identifying the EAV table in which its data will be stored
  • Where an EAV system is implemented through RDF, the RDF Schema language may conveniently be used to express such metadata
  • access to metadata must be restricted, and an audit trail of accesses and changes put into place to deal with situations where multiple individuals have metadata access
  • quality of the annotation and documentation within the metadata (i.e., the narrative/explanatory text in the descriptive columns of the metadata sub-schema) must be much higher, in order to facilitate understanding by various members of the development team.
  • Attribute metadata
  • Validation metadata include data type, range of permissible values or membership in a set of values, regular expression match, default value, and whether the value is permitted to be null

  • Presentation metadata: how the attribute is to be displayed to the user
  • Grouping metadata: Attributes are typically presented as part of a higher-order group, e.g., a specialty-specific form. Grouping metadata includes information such as the order in which attributes are presented
  • Advanced validation metadata Dependency metadata:

      generally speaking, there can be a few independent but overlapping mechanism that will control who is allowed to do what with content: 1. any subject's access to the content itself can be controlled via authorization rules (ie. required vs granted permissions) enforced via system-wide resource-based access control 2. content licensors (~content owners) can restrict the usage of their content by: * whom - ie. content licensee (legally/commercially represented by an organization) * how - eg. reuse as unmodified, create derivatives, composite, redistribute, etc * where - ie. distribution channels their content can be used (eg. only on hotel's vbrochure site, but not in any ids/gds channels) * when - temporal restrictions may limit scope of content license grant by: start, end, duration, season, etc 3. content licensees can further filter or funnel content available to them (resulting from a combination of license granted to them and access control) based on their own criteria (eg. generate a templated hotel presentation only if: at least 1 textual description, 5 photos and 1 video for a hotel is available with a license to combine them (composite content)

java javadoc BestPractices documentation design communication

shared by kuni katsuya on 13 Dec 12 - No Cached
  • Javadoc coding standards
  • explain some of the rationale for some of my choices
  • this is more about the formatting of Javadoc, than the content of Javadoc
  • ...63 more annotations...
  • Each of the guidelines below consists of a short description of the rule and an explanation
  • Write Javadoc to be read as source code
  • Making Javadoc readable as source code
  • Public and protected
  • All public and protected methods should be fully defined with Javadoc
  • Package and private methods do not have to be, but may
  • benefit from it.
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 13 Dec 12
       
      think of it as internal design documentation when you revisit this code 8 months from now: - based on nothing but your well-chosen ;) package/class/method/variable names, will you recall all of your current design intentions and rationale? likely not - when you hand-off this code to another software engineer, how easy will it be to mostly rtfm? will you have to waste time preparing design/implementation notes specifically for the hand-off? if this is the case because the code is unreadable and not self-guiding and there's not already at least high level design notes in a wiki, you're doing it wrong!
  • If a method is overridden in a subclass, Javadoc should only be present if it says something distinct to the original definition of the method
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 13 Dec 12
       
      ie. don't just copy-paste the javadoc from the superclass. that's mindless and pointless monkey work
  • Use the standard style for the Javadoc comment
  • Do not use '**/' at the end of the Javadoc
  • Use simple HTML tags, not valid XHTML
  • XHTML adds many extra tags that make the Javadoc harder to read as source code
  • Use a single <p> tag between paragraphs
  • Place a single <p> tag on the blank line between paragraphs:
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 13 Dec 12
       
      this at least makes the paragraph breaks wysiwygísh and somewhat easier to read
  • Use a single <li> tag for items in a list
  • place a single <li> tag at the start of the line and no closing tag
  • Define a punchy first sentence
  • it has the responsibility of summing up the method or class to readers scanning the class or package
  • the first sentence should be
  • clear and punchy, and generally short
  • use the third person form at the start
  • Avoid the second person form, such as "Get the foo"
  • Use "this" to refer to an instance of the class
  • When referring to an instance of the class being documented, use "this" to reference it.
  • Aim for short single line sentences
  • Wherever possible, make Javadoc sentences fit on a single line
  • favouring between 80 and 120 characters
  • Use @link and @code wisely
  • @link feature creates a visible hyperlink in generated Javadoc to the target
  • @code feature provides a section of fixed-width font, ideal for references to methods and class names
  • Only use @link on the first reference to a specific class or method
  • Use @code for subsequent references.
  • This avoids excessive hyperlinks cluttering up the Javadoc
  • Never use @link in the first sentence
  • Always use @code in the first sentence if necessary
  • Adding a hyperlink in that first sentence makes the higher level documentation more confusing
  • Do not use @code for null, true or false
  • Adding @code for every occurrence is a burden to both the reader and writer of the Javadoc and adds no real value.
  • Use @param, @return and @throws
  • @param entries should be specified in the same order as the parameters
  • @return should be after the @param entries
  • followed by @throws.
  • Use @param for generics
  • correct approach is an @param tag with the parameter name of <T> where T is the type parameter name.
  • Use one blank line before @param
  • This aids readability in source code.
  • Treat @param and @return as a phrase
  • They should start with a lower case letter, typically using the word "the". They should not end with a dot. This aids readability in source code and when generated.
  • treated as phrases rather than complete sentences
  • Treat @throws as an if clause
  • phrase describing the condition
  • Define null-handling for all parameters and return types
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 13 Dec 12
       
      ideally, if the method in question has any specified/required pre and/or post conditions, they should be noted in the javadoc, not *just* null handling also, there are cleaner ways to design around this type of old school null handling hackage
  • methods should define their null-tolerance in the @param or @return
  • standard forms expressing this
  • "not null"
  • "may be null"
  • "null treated as xxx"
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 13 Dec 12
       
      DO NOT DO THIS this is just bad design
  • "null returns xxx"
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 13 Dec 12
       
      this might also stink of poor design ymmv
  • In general the behaviour of the passed in null should be defined
  • Specifications require implementation notes
  • Avoid @author
  • source control system is in a much better position to record authors
  • This wastes everyone's time and decreases the overall value of the documentation. When you have nothing useful to say, say nothing!
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 13 Dec 12
       
      likewise with javadoc on things like default constructors /**  * Creates an instance of SomeClass  */ public SomeClass() {} is equally useless and unnecessarily clutters up the source code

jbossas7 datasource configuration jdbc

shared by kuni katsuya on 11 Jul 12 - No Cached
  • Data Source Configuration in AS 7
  • Using @DataSourceDefinition to configure a DataSource
  • This annotation requires that a data source implementation class (generally from a JDBC driver JAR) be present on the class path (either by including it in your application, or deploying it as a top-level JAR and referring to it via MANIFEST.MF's Class-Path attribute) and be named explicitly.
  • ...21 more annotations...
  • this annotation bypasses the management layer and as such it is recommended only for development and testing purposes
  • Defining a Managed DataSource
  • Installing a JDBC driver as a deployment
  • Installing the JDBC Driver
  • deployment or as a core module
  • managed by the application server (and thus take advantage of the management and connection pooling facilities it provides), you must perform two tasks.  First, you must make the JDBC driver available to the application server; then you can configure the data source itself.  Once you have performed these tasks you can use the data source via standard JNDI injection.
  • recommended way to install a JDBC driver into the application server is to simply deploy it as a regular JAR deployment.  The reason for this is that when you run your application server in domain mode, deployments are automatically propagated to all servers to which the deployment applies; thus distribution of the driver JAR is one less thing for administrators to worry about.
  • Note on MySQL driver and JDBC Type 4 compliance: while the MySQL driver (at least up to 5.1.18) is designed to be a Type 4 driver, its jdbcCompliant() method always return false. The reason is that the driver does not pass SQL 92 full compliance tests, says MySQL. Thus, you will need to install the MySQL JDBC driver as a module (see below).
  • Installing a JDBC driver as a module
  • <module xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.0" name="com.mysql">  <resources>    <resource-root path="mysql-connector-java-5.1.15.jar"/>  </resources>  <dependencies>    <module name="javax.api"/>  </dependencies></module>
  • jboss-7.0.0.<release>/modules/com/mysql/main
  • define your module with a module.xml file, and the actual jar file that contains your database driver
  • content of the module.xml file
  • Under the root directory of the application server, is a directory called modules
  • module name, which in this example is com.mysql
  • where the implementation is, which is the resource-root tag with the path element
  • define any dependencies you might have.  In this case, as the case with all JDBC data sources, we would be dependent on the Java JDBC API's, which in this case in defined in another module called javax.api, which you can find under modules/javax/api/main as you would expect.
  • Defining the DataSource itself
  •    <datasource jndi-name="java:jboss/datasources/MySqlDS" pool-name="MySqlDS">      <connection-url>jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/EJB3</connection-url>         <driver>com.mysql</driver>
  •     <drivers>      <driver name="com.mysql" module="com.mysql">        <xa-datasource-class>com.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.MysqlXADataSource</xa-datasource-class>      </driver>    </drivers>
