Class Expression

java.lang.Object
io.github.jspinak.brobot.runner.dsl.expressions.Expression
Direct Known Subclasses:
BinaryOperationExpression, BuilderExpression, LiteralExpression, MethodCallExpression, VariableExpression
public abstract class Expression extends Object
Abstract base class for all expressions in the Brobot DSL.

An expression represents a value-producing computation in the DSL. Expressions can be:

  • Literals (constant values like "hello" or 42)
  • Variables (references to previously declared values)
  • Method calls (invocations that return values)
  • Binary operations (arithmetic or logical operations between two expressions)
  • Builder expressions (fluent API pattern for constructing complex objects)

This class uses Jackson polymorphic deserialization to support parsing different expression types from JSON based on the "expressionType" discriminator field.

    • getExpressionType

      public String getExpressionType()
      The discriminator field used by Jackson to determine the concrete type of this expression during JSON deserialization. Valid values: "literal", "variable", "methodCall", "binaryOperation", "builder"

    • setExpressionType

      public void setExpressionType(String expressionType)
      The discriminator field used by Jackson to determine the concrete type of this expression during JSON deserialization. Valid values: "literal", "variable", "methodCall", "binaryOperation", "builder"
