Boiler plate when iterating through collections

Commencez par l’implémentation de PageIterator dans com.microsoft.graph.core.tasks.PageIterator.java, en particulier extractEntityListFromParsable et le chemin d’itération interpages, puis examinez la section PageIterator de docs/upgrade-to-v6.md. Reproduisez l’exemple générique de delta de l’issue et déterminez si les requêtes de collections et de collections delta peuvent partager un itérateur concis ; le travail est terminé lorsque le comportement pris en charge et la modification d’API requise sont clairs.

Hello, i have a small question.

https://github.com/microsoftgraph/msgraph-sdk-java/blob/dev/docs/upgrade-to-v6.md#pageiterator

• With the new page iterator there is a boilerplate associated with each request and iterating through it. Since a new page iterator would need to be created for each request.
• I was wondering if there is a generic way to create an iterator to run on collection requests and delta collection requests.

So I created this code, from looking at the generated code in the msft graph sdk:

  public static <T extends Parsable> void genericIterator(
      GraphServiceClient graphClient,
      BaseDeltaFunctionResponse res,
      Consumer<T> processEntity, 
      Consumer<String> processDeltaLink) {
    PageIterator<T, BaseDeltaFunctionResponse> pageIterator;
    try {
      pageIterator = new PageIterator.Builder<T, BaseDeltaFunctionResponse>()
              .client(graphClient)
              .collectionPage(res)
              .collectionPageFactory(BaseDeltaFunctionResponse::createFromDiscriminatorValue)
              .processPageItemCallback(entity -> {
                processEntity.accept(entity);
                return true; 
              }).build();
      pageIterator.iterate();
      processDeltaLink.accept(pageIterator.getDeltaLink());
    } catch (ApiException | ReflectiveOperationException e) {
      log.error("Error ", e);
    }
  }

  public static <T extends Parsable> void genericIterator(
      GraphServiceClient graphClient,
      BaseCollectionPaginationCountResponse res,
      Consumer<T> processGroupOwner) {
    PageIterator<T, BaseCollectionPaginationCountResponse> pageIterator;
    try {
      pageIterator = new PageIterator.Builder<T, BaseCollectionPaginationCountResponse>()
              .client(graphClient)
              .collectionPage(res)
              .collectionPageFactory(BaseCollectionPaginationCountResponse::createFromDiscriminatorValue)
              .processPageItemCallback(entity -> {
                processGroupOwner.accept(entity);
                return true; 
              }).build();
      pageIterator.iterate();
    } catch (ApiException | ReflectiveOperationException e) {
      log.error("Error ", e);
    }
  }

This second method works with general collectors, but not the first one for delta collections.

I was wondering if this is even recommending considering that the sdk is based on code generations and/or if there is a way to iterate over collections in a more concise manner than the current page iterator.

Error received from the generic delta collection iterator:

DeltaGetResponse res2 = graphServiceClient.groups().delta().get();
genericIterator(graphServiceClient, res2, (Group group) -> {
  log.info("Group: {} {}", group.getId(), group.getDisplayName());
}, (String deltaLink) -> {
  log.info("DeltaLink: {}", deltaLink);
});
