toJson method

@override Map<String, dynamic> toJson({ OptimizeFor optimizeFor = OptimizeFor.put, })

Converts this object into JSON format.

optimizeFor lets the program know what information to include in the JSON data map.

• OptimizeFor.put (the default value) is used when making a data map that is being placed in a PUT request. This only includes data that has changed.
• OptimizeFor.putFull is used when a parent object updates; so, all of the children are required to be present for the PUT request.
• OptimizeFor.post is used when making a data map for a POST request.
• OptimizeFor.dontOptimize is used to get all of the data contained in this object.

Throws InvalidNameException if metadata.name doesn't have 1 to 32 characters (inclusive), and optimizeFor is not set to OptimizeFor.dontOptimize.

Throws InvalidIdException if any of the children's IDs or service's IDs are empty and optimizeFor is not set to OptimizeFor.dontOptimize.

Implementation

@override
Map<String, dynamic> toJson({OptimizeFor optimizeFor = OptimizeFor.put}) {
  // PUT
  if (identical(optimizeFor, OptimizeFor.put)) {
    Map<String, dynamic> toReturn = {};

    if (!identical(type, originalType)) {
      toReturn[ApiFields.type] = type.value;
    }

    if (!const DeepCollectionEquality.unordered()
        .equals(children, _originalChildren)) {
      toReturn[ApiFields.children] = children
          .map((child) => child.toJson(optimizeFor: OptimizeFor.putFull))
          .toList();
    }

    if (metadata != _originalMetadata) {
      toReturn[ApiFields.metadata] =
          metadata.toJson(optimizeFor: OptimizeFor.putFull);
    }

    return toReturn;
  }

  // PUT FULL & POST
  if (identical(optimizeFor, OptimizeFor.putFull) ||
      identical(optimizeFor, OptimizeFor.post)) {
    return {
      ApiFields.type: type.value,
      ApiFields.children: children
          .map((child) => child.toJson(optimizeFor: OptimizeFor.putFull))
          .toList(),
      ApiFields.metadata: metadata.toJson(optimizeFor: optimizeFor),
    };
  }

  // DEFAULT
  return {
    ApiFields.type: type.value,
    ApiFields.id: id,
    ApiFields.idV1: idV1,
    ApiFields.children: children
        .map((child) => child.toJson(optimizeFor: optimizeFor))
        .toList(),
    ApiFields.services: services
        .map((service) => service.toJson(optimizeFor: optimizeFor))
        .toList(),
    ApiFields.metadata: metadata.toJson(optimizeFor: optimizeFor),
  };
