Interface DynamicOptions.DynamicBean

All Known Subinterfaces:
DynamicOptions.BeanParseListener, DynamicOptions.ClassNameProvider, DynamicOptions.ModulesClassNamesProvider
Enclosing class:
DynamicOptions

public static interface DynamicOptions.DynamicBean
To provide additional options, bind a DynamicBean. For example:
   bind(com.google.gerrit.server.DynamicOptions.DynamicBean.class)
       .annotatedWith(Exports.named(com.google.gerrit.sshd.commands.Query.class))
       .to(MyOptions.class);
 
To define the additional options, implement this interface. For example:
   public class MyOptions implements DynamicOptions.DynamicBean {
     @Option(name = "--verbose", aliases = {"-v"}
             usage = "Make the operation more talkative")
     public boolean verbose;
   }
 

The option will be prefixed by the plugin name. In the example above, if the plugin name was my-plugin, then the --verbose option as used by the caller would be --my-plugin--verbose.

Additional options can be annotated with @RequiresOption which will cause them to be ignored unless the required option is present. For example:

   @RequiresOptions("--help")
   @Option(name = "--help-as-json",
           usage = "display help text in json format")
   public boolean displayHelpAsJson;
