    • getServerInfo

      ServerInfo getServerInfo()
      Retrieves the default base Apache Unomi server information, including the name and version of the server, build time information and the event types if recognizes as well as the capabilities supported by the system. For more detailed information about the system and extensions use the getServerInfos method.
      Returns:
      a ServerInfo object with all the server information
    • getServerInfos

      List<ServerInfo> getServerInfos()
      Retrieves the list of the server information objects, that include extensions. Each object includes the name and version of the server, build time information and the event types if recognizes as well as the capabilities supported by the system.
      Returns:
      a list of ServerInfo objects with all the server information
    • deleteProfile

      Boolean deleteProfile(String profileId)
      Deletes the current profile (but has no effect on sessions and events). This will delete the persisted profile and replace it with a new empty one with the same profileId.
      Parameters:
      profileId - the identifier of the profile to delete and replace
      Returns:
      true if the deletion was successful
    • anonymizeProfile

      Boolean anonymizeProfile(String profileId, String scope)
      This method will "anonymize" a profile by removing from the associated profile all the properties that have been defined as "denied properties".
      Parameters:
      profileId - the identifier of the profile that needs to be anonymized.
      scope - The scope will be used to send events, once for the anonymizeProfile event, the other for the profileUpdated event
      Returns:
      true if the profile had some properties purged, false otherwise
    • anonymizeBrowsingData

      Boolean anonymizeBrowsingData(String profileId)
      This method will anonymize browsing data by creating an anonymous profile for the current profile, and then re-associating all the profile's sessions and events with the new anonymous profile todo this method does not anonymize any session or event properties that may contain profile data (such as the login event)
      Parameters:
      profileId - the identifier of the profile on which to perform the anonymizations of the browsing data
      Returns:
      true if the operation was successful, false otherwise
    • deleteProfileData

      Boolean deleteProfileData(String profileId, boolean purgeData)
      This method will perform two operations, first it will call the anonymizeBrowsingData method on the specified profile, and then it will delete the profile from the persistence service.
      Parameters:
      profileId - the identifier of the profile
      purgeData - flag that indicates whether to purge the profile's data
      Returns:
      true if the operation was successful, false otherwise
    • setRequireAnonymousBrowsing

      Boolean setRequireAnonymousBrowsing(String profileId, boolean anonymous, String scope)
      Controls the activation/deactivation of anonymous browsing. This method will simply set a system property called requireAnonymousProfile that will be then use to know if we should associate browsing data with the main profile or the associated anonymous profile. Note that changing this setting will also reset the goals and pastEvents system properties for the profile.
      Parameters:
      profileId - the identifier of the profile on which to set the anonymous browsing property flag
      anonymous - the value of the anonymous browsing flag.
      scope - a scope used to send a profileUpdated event internally
      Returns:
      true if successful, false otherwise
    • isRequireAnonymousBrowsing

      Boolean isRequireAnonymousBrowsing(String profileId)
      Tests if the anonymous browsing flag is set of the specified profile.
      Parameters:
      profileId - the identifier of the profile on which we want to retrieve the anonymous browsing flag
      Returns:
      true if successful, false otherwise
    • isRequireAnonymousBrowsing

      Boolean isRequireAnonymousBrowsing(Profile profile)
      Tests if the anonymous browsing flag is set of the specified profile.
      Parameters:
      profile - the profile on which we want to retrieve the anonymous browsing flag
      Returns:
      true if successful, false otherwise
    • getAnonymousProfile

      Profile getAnonymousProfile(Profile profile)
      Build a new anonymous profile (but doesn't persist it in the persistence service). This will also copy the profile properties from the passed profile that are not listed as denied properties.
      Parameters:
      profile - the profile for which to create the anonymous profile
      Returns:
      a newly created (but not persisted) profile for the passed profile.
    • getFilteredEventTypes

      List<String> getFilteredEventTypes(String profileId)
