public class Narrative
extends java.lang.Object

Models the value of fields containing narrative content. The content is normally text wrapped in lines but they also support the narrative to be structured with codewords.

When the structured option is used, different line formats are supported depending on the actual field. In most of the fields the only element in the structured format is the actual text. However some fields can include currency and amount (for example: 73A, 71D, 71B, 73), country codes (for example 77B) or the narrative partitioned as a main narrative and a supplement (for example: 75, 76).

Supported line formats are:

 Format 1
      Line 1:         /8a/[additional information]               (Code)(Narrative)
      Lines 2-n:      /8a/[additional information]               (Code)(Narrative)
                      [//continuation of additional information] (Narrative)

 Format 2
      Line 1:         /8c/[additional information]                Code)(Narrative)
      Lines 2-n:      /8c/[additional information]               (Code)(Narrative)
                      [//continuation of additional information] (Narrative)

 Format 3
      Line 1:         /8c/[3!a13d][additional information]       (Code)(Currency)(Amount)(Narrative)
      Lines 2-6:      /8c/[3!a13d][additional information]       (Code)(Currency)(Amount)(Narrative)
                      [//continuation of additional information] (Narrative)

 Format 4
      Line 1:         /8c/[additional information]               (Code)(Narrative)
      Lines 2-3:      [//continuation of additional information] (Narrative)
      Variant for cat 1 with country
      Line 1:         /8c/2!a[//additional information]          (Code)(Country)(Narrative)
      Lines 2-3:      [//continuation of additional information] (Narrative)

 Format 5
      Line 1:         /2n/[supplement 1][/supplement2]           (Query Number)(Narrative 1)(Narrative 2)
      Lines 2-6       /2n/[supplement 1][/supplement2]
                      [//continuation of supplementary information]

 Format 6
      Line 1:         /6c/[additional information]               (Code)(Narrative)
      Lines 2-100:    /6c/[additional information]               (Code)(Narrative)
                      [continuation of additional information]   (Narrative) (cannot start with slash)

 Format 7
      Code between slashes at the beginning of a line

 Format 8
      Free format codes in slashes, not necessary on new lines

This model is intended to be a generic container for any type of structured or unstructure narrative, for any narrative container field. When a component (currency, amount, country or supplement) does not apply to a field, it will be simply set to null by the parser.

```
public static Narrative.Builder builder(int lineLength)
```
    This builder allows creating the structured narrative with ease, just adding chunks of texts with optional codewords and extra fields. It is intended to simplify construction of different line formats.
    The implementation splits the text into fragments up to the given length, with word wrapping.
    Since the builder will do the line wrapping, the parameter text should not contain line breaks. If your text is already formatted into lines use the NarrativeContainer.appendLine(String) method or the field plain component setter when you have the compete formatted value.
    
    Parameters:
    
    lineLength - specific field max line length, used for text wrapping
  - getStructured
```
public java.util.List<StructuredNarrative> getStructured()
```
    Gets the structured part of the narrative, meaning the segments composed by a codeword and a structured text. See examples below.
    For field:
    :77J:THREE (3) COMMERCIAL INVOICES INSTEAD OF FIVE (5) PRESENTED
    the result will be empty since all the narrative content is unstructured.
    For field:
    :72:/BNF/first line of beneficiary //second line of beneficiary supplementary unstructured data
    the result will be a single entry for the "BNF" content including the narrative texts "first line of beneficiary" and "second line of beneficiary". Notice the "supplementary unstructured data" will not be part of the returned structured data since it is not the continuation for "BNF" but some additional unstructured content in the last field line.
    Returns:
    
    the structured content or empty if no structured content is present
  - getStructured
```
public StructuredNarrative getStructured(java.lang.String codeword)
```
    Gets the first structured narrative found for the given codeword.
    Notice codewords can be repeated for some fields, this method returns the first instance found.
    
    Parameters:
    
    codeword - an instruction codeword for the field such as: BNF, HOLD, NAME, PREVINST, etc..
    
    Returns:
    
    found structured content for the codeword or null if the field does not have structured narrative or the structured narrative is not set for the codeword.
  - countStructured
```
public int countStructured(java.lang.String codeword)
```
    Count the occurrences of a given codeword in the structured narrative
    
    Parameters:
    
    codeword - an instruction codeword for the field such as: OCMT, CHGS, etc..
    
    Returns:
    
    number of structured content with the parameter codeword or zero if none is found
  - getUnstructuredFragments
```
public java.util.List<java.lang.String> getUnstructuredFragments()
```
    Returns the part of the field value that is not structured in codewords. See examples below.
    For field:
    :77J:THREE (3) COMMERCIAL INVOICES INSTEAD OF FIVE (5) PRESENTED
    the result will be the complete field value since all the narrative content is unstructured.
    For field:
    :72:/BNF/dbln-111- RED-1,123.456-78/10/ //05 redemption monies supplementary unstructured data
    the result will be "supplementary unstructured data" since that line at the end is unstructured content, not the continuation of the structured narrative for BNF codeword.
    If the text is wrapped in lines the result list contains one element per line. To get the unstructured narrative text as a simple joined string use getUnstructured(String)
    Returns:
    
    the fragments of the unstructured text or an empty list if there is no unstructured text
  - getUnstructured
```
public java.lang.String getUnstructured()
```
    Gets this unstructured content as a single String, meaning if the text was wrapped in lines this method will return the joined lines without separator.
    
    Returns:
    
    the narrative fragments joined as a single string or null if the narrative does not have any text
  - getUnstructured
```
public java.lang.String getUnstructured(java.lang.String delimiter)
```
    Gets this unstructured content as a single String, meaning if the text was wrapped in lines this method will return the joined lines.
    
    Parameters:
    
    delimiter - optional delimiter, could be for example null, empty, space or line break.
    
    Returns:
    
    the narrative fragments joined as a single string or null if the narrative does not have any text
  - isEmpty
```
public boolean isEmpty()
```
    Returns:
    
    true if non of the narrative fields are set
  - valid
```
public boolean valid()
```
    Simple validation to check that either the structured or unstructured content is set For the structured field the StructuredNarrative.valid() method is used.
  - codewords
```
public java.util.Set<java.lang.String> codewords()
```
    If the field has structured narrative returns a set of all codewords used
    
    Returns:
    
    found codewords or empty if none is found (content is unstructured)
  - getValue
```
public java.lang.String getValue()
```
    Serializes this narrative components into the single string value (SWIFT format) adding new lines as necessary
