Method Details

removePrefix

static String removePrefix(String identifer)

Helper method to remove a prefix from an identifier string

Parameters:

identifer - the identifier

Returns:

The identifier without the prefix (if it had any)

order

default int order()

The order of the factory. If there is more than one matching verticle they will be tried in ascending order.

Returns:

the order

init

default void init(Vertx vertx)

Initialise the factory

Parameters:

vertx - The Vert.x instance

close

default void close()

Close the factory. The implementation must release all resources.

prefix

String prefix()

Returns:

The prefix for the factory, e.g. "java", or "js".

createVerticle

@Deprecated
default void createVerticle(String verticleName,
 ClassLoader classLoader,
 Promise<Callable<Verticle>> promise)

Deprecated.

deprecated, instead implement createVerticle2(String, ClassLoader, Promise)

Create a verticle instance. If this method is likely to be slow then make sure it is run on a worker thread by Vertx.executeBlocking(Callable, boolean).

Parameters:

verticleName - The verticle name

classLoader - The class loader

promise - the promise to complete with the result

createVerticle2

default void createVerticle2(String verticleName,
 ClassLoader classLoader,
 Promise<Callable<? extends Deployable>> promise)

Create a verticle instance. If this method is likely to be slow then make sure it is run on a worker thread by Vertx.executeBlocking(Callable, boolean).

Parameters:

verticleName - The verticle name

classLoader - The class loader

promise - the promise to complete with the result
