== gCube Model ==
 
  
gCube Model is a resource model built on top of [[#IS_Model| IS Model]] which captures the different aspects of the resources and their relations playing significant roles in a research infrastructure empowered by gCube.
+
=== Maven coordinates ===
  
 +
To use the Java library containing the classes modelling the IS Model you can declare the following dependency:

The client can retrieve the schema at the provided URI, i.e., schema property, and use its content to understand/validate/manipulate the information contained in the value property.
+
The client must have the capability to understand the semantics of content retrieved at the URI endpoint. Examples of application of such type are eXtensible Markup Language (XML) values which can be validated by a Document Type Definition (DTD) or XML Schema Definition (XSD).

== Extension Example ==

The gCube Resource Model supports extensions at runtime meaning that new facets, relations, and resources can be defined and registered at any time by authorized clients. Those extensions must necessarily specialize an existing gCube Entity.

An example of those specializations is the following:

IS Model

The Information System Model (henceforth IS Model) is a graph model with Entities as nodes and Relations as edges.

Is-model.png

Is-model-er.png

  • Two typologies of entities are envisaged:
    • Resources, i.e. entities representing a description of "thing" to be managed;
      • Every Resource is described by a number of Facets.
    • Facets, i.e. entities contributing to "build" a description of a Resource. Every facet, once attached to a Resource profile captures a certain aspect / characterization of the resource;
      • Every facet is characterised by a number of properties;
  • Each entity and relation
    • has an header automatically generated for the sake of identification and provenance of the specific information;
    • can be specialized
      • A number of specializations are identified below. Such specializations are managed by the gCube Core services, i.e. Core services builds upon these specializations to realize its management tasks;
      • Other specializations can be defined by clients, the system make it possible to store these additional typologies of relations and facets and to discover them.
  • Facet and Relation instances can have additional properties which are not defined in the schema (henceforth schema-mixed mode).
  • On relations:
    • Any relation has a direction, i.e. a "source" (out bound of the relation) and a "target" (in bound of the relation). Anyway, the relation can be also navigated in the opposite direction;
    • It is not permitted to define a Relation having a Facet as "source". In other words:
      • It is not permitted to define a Relation connecting a Facet with another one;
      • It is not permitted to define a Relation connecting a Facet with a Resource (as target);
    • A Facet instance can be linked (by ConsistsOf or any specialization of it) from different Resources.

We derived the term Facet directly from the dictionary definition. Merriam Webster Dictionary defines facet as “any of the definable aspects that make up a subject (as of contemplation) or an object (as of consideration)”[1]. The Free Dictionary defines a facet as “One of numerous aspects, as of a subject” [2].


Properties

Any Property defined in the schema is characterised by:

  • Name : Property Name
  • Type : The Type of the Property (e.g. String, Integer, ...). It can be a Basic Type or a Derived Type or a Complex Type
  • Description : The description of the Property. default=null.
  • Mandatory (M): Indicate if the Property is mandatory. default=false.
  • ReadOnly (RO): The Property cannot change its value. default=false.
  • NotNull (NN): Whether the property must assume a value diverse from 'null' or not. default=false
  • Max (Max): default=null
  • Min (Min): default=null
  • Regex (Reg)): A Regular Expression to validate the property value, default=null. A good online tool for regex is avalable at https://regex101.com/

Basic Types

Type Java type Description
Boolean java.lang.Boolean or boolean Handles only the values True or False.
Integer java.lang.Integer or int or java.math.BigInteger 32-bit signed Integers.
Short java.lang.Short or short Small 16-bit signed integers.
Long java.lang.Long or long Big 64-bit signed integers.
Float java.lang.Float or float Decimal numbers.
Double java.lang.Double or double Decimal numbers with high precision.
Date java.util.Date Any date with the precision up to milliseconds.
String java.lang.String Any string as alphanumeric sequence of chars.

Derived Types

The following are obtained using a String as real type and adding a validation regex.

Type Java type Description
Enum java.lang.Enum or enum by default it is represented using the String representation of the Enum. So that the primitive type used will be String. The enumeration is checked by setting Regexpr property. The Regular Expression is auto-generated and it will be something like ^(FIRST-ENUM-STRING_REPRESENTATION|SECOND-ENUM-STRING_REPRESENTATION|...|LAST_ENUM_STRING_REPRESENTATION)$.

Otherwise (if indicated using an annotation), it can be represented using the Integer value of the Enum. So that the primitive type used will be Integer. The enumeration is checked using Max and Min properties.

UUID java.util.UUID String representation of the UUID. The check is obtained using the regular expression ^([a-fA-F0-9]{8}-[a-fA-F0-9]{4}-[a-fA-F0-9]{4}-[a-fA-F0-9]{4}-[a-fA-F0-9]{12}){1}$
URL java.net.URL String representation of the URL. No check actually.
URI java.net.URI String representation of the URI. No check actually.
TypeVersion org.gcube.informationsystem.utils.TypeVersion A type representing and validating a version in the following format X.X.X Major(Integer).Minor(Integer).Revision(Integer) (e.g 1.0.0, 2.3.0, 2.0.1). The check is obtained using the regular expression ^[1-9][0-9]{0,}\.(0|([1-9][0-9]{0,}))\.(0|([1-9][0-9]{0,}))$.

Complex Types

Any property defined by composing basic types derives from Property type.

Property

It does not define any field. It is just used as a base class.

The Java Interface declaration for such a type is available at:

https://code-repo.d4science.org/gCubeSystem/information-system-model/src/branch/master/src/main/java/org/gcube/informationsystem/model/reference/properties/Property.java

Header

Every Entity and Relation has an Header automatically created/updated by the System.

Header extends Property
Name Type Attributes Description
uuid UUID Mandatory=true
NotNull=true
ReadOnly=true
This UUID is be used to identify the Entity or the Relation univocally.
createdBy String Mandatory=true
NotNull=true
ReadOnly=true
The user that created the Entity or the Relation. It is initialized at creation time.
creationTime Date Mandatory=true
NotNull=true
ReadOnly=true
Creation time.
lastUpdateBy String Mandatory=true
NotNull=true
The user that made the last update to the Entity or the Relation. At creation time, it assumes the same value of creator.
lastUpdateTime Date Mandatory=true
NotNull=true
Last Update time. At creation time it assumes the same value of creationTime.


The Java Interface declaration for such a type is available at:

https://code-repo.d4science.org/gCubeSystem/information-system-model/src/branch/master/src/main/java/org/gcube/informationsystem/model/reference/properties/Header.java

PropagationConstraint

At any time entities and relations can be added or removed to/from a context or deleted. The PropagationConstraint property contained in each relation is a predefined Property type which indicates the behaviour to be held on a target entity when an event related to a context occurs in the source resource or directly to the relation.

PropagationConstraint extends Property
Name Type Attributes Description
remove Enum Regex=(cascadeWhenOrphan|cascade|keep) It indicates the behaviour to implement for the target Entity when a 'remove' action is performed on the source Resource. Remove actions are: (i) the operation of removing an instance from a context; (ii) the operation of deleting an instance (it has an impact on all contexts).
add Enum Regex=(propagate|unpropagate) It indicates the behaviour to implement for the target Entity when an 'add' action is performed on the source Resource. Add action is the operation of adding an instance to a context.


Remove values;

  • cascadeWhenOrphan: When a remove action is performed on the source Entity of the relation, or directly on the relation, then the same remove action apart on the relation is performed to the target entity if it has no other incoming relations.
  • cascade: When a remove action is performed on the source Entity of the relation, or directly on the relation, then the same remove action is performed on the relation and its target entity.
  • keep: When a remove action is performed on the source Entity of the relation, or directly on the relation, then the same remove action is performed on relation but never to the target entity.


Add values;

  • propagate: When an 'add' action is performed on the source Entity of the relation, or directly on the relation, then the same add action is performed on the relation and its target Entity.
  • unpropagate: When an 'add' action is performed on the source Entity of the relation, is performed on source relation only. Trying to perform an 'add' action on the relation has no effects.


Any Relation contains such a property. If the values are not specified at creation time the system initialize it with the following rules:

Encrypted
Encrypted extends Property
Name Type Attributes Description
value String The encrypted value. The resource registry store safely the value. When received the value is decrypted using the key of current context and store the value safely. When the value is read, the resource-registry retrieve the value and encrypt it with the key of current context.

Facet

Early ideas and thinking on facets were documented at 2nd Generation Resource Model: Facets

Facets are collections of attributes conceived to capture a certain feature/aspect of the Resource they are associated with. Every facet can define zero or more properties. Besides the per-facet envisaged properties, clients can add new ones.

Abstract Facet extends Entity

IsParentOf

This relation has no propagation constraint.

Source Relation Multiplicity Target Description
Context IsParentOf 0..n Context ...

Best practices and guidelines

  • On Facet instances "reuse" across Resource Profiles:
    • This can be guaranteed automatically by the system, if and just in the case the system wants to avoid duplication of information. It is based on a configuration policy;
    • This MUST be done only when a change in a facet instance MUST affect a change in all Resources connected to such a Facet.
