Method Details

values

public static XContentType[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared.

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static XContentType valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this class with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this class. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum class has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

fromMediaTypeOrFormat

public static XContentType fromMediaTypeOrFormat(String mediaType)

Accepts either a format string, which is equivalent to shortName() or a media type that optionally has parameters and attempts to match the value to an XContentType. The comparisons are done in lower case format and this method also supports a wildcard accept for application/*. This method can be used to parse the Accept HTTP header or a format query string parameter. This method will return null if no match is found

fromMediaType

public static XContentType fromMediaType(String mediaType)

Attempts to match the given media type with the known XContentType values. This match is done in a case-insensitive manner. The provided media type should not include any parameters. This method is suitable for parsing part of the Content-Type HTTP header. This method will return null if no match is found

index

public int index()

mediaType

public String mediaType()

shortName

public abstract String shortName()

xContent

public abstract XContent xContent()

mediaTypeWithoutParameters

public abstract String mediaTypeWithoutParameters()
