Class Node
java.lang.Object
groovy.util.Node
- public class Node
- extends java.lang.Object
Represents an arbitrary tree node which can be used for structured metadata which can be any arbitrary XML-like tree.
A node can have a name, a value and an optional Map of attributes.
Typically the name is a String and a value is either a String or a List of other Nodes.
Though the types are extensible to provide a flexible structure.
e.g. you could use a QName as the name which includes a namespace URI and a local name. Or a JMX ObjectName etc.
So this class can represent metadata like {foo a=1 b="abc"} or nested metadata like {foo a=1 b="123" { bar x=12 text="hello" }}
