Method

Format the node to a string in a form suitable for use in error messages

Return the AuthorRef instances from the metadata

AN optional BriefDescription

A reliable extractor of the brief description, dealing with the optionality and plurality of it

A reliable extractor of the description, dealing with the optionality and plurality of it

A lazily constructed scala.Seq of Description

Get the value of name'd option, if there is one.

Determine if the metadata has any author refs

Determines if this RiddlValuedefines any Authors or not

Determine if this RiddlValue has definitions it contains

Determines if this RiddlValue has any includes in it

Determine if the metadata has any option values

Determines if this RiddlValue has any options set or not

Determines if this RiddlValue contains any type definitions

Convert the identifier into a string format with its kind and dealing with anonymity.

Same as identify but also adds the value's location via loc

This one has an identifier so it is only anonymous if that identifier is empty

Determines if this RiddlValue is a comment or not

Determine if this RiddlValue contains other values or not

Yes anything deriving from here is a definition

Determine if this RiddlValue is empty or not. Non-containers are always empty

Whether or not this instance has an id: Identifier field or not

Determines if this RiddlValue is a processor (handles messages) or not

Determine if this RiddlValue is the top most container, appearing at the root of the AST

Determines if this node is a vital node or not

Provide a string to specify the kind of thing this value is with default derived from class name

implements the nonEmpty function based on the isEmpty function

Return the OptionValues in the meta data

A lazily constructed mutable Seq of AuthorRef

Get the ULID associated with the definition. There can only be one and they are assigned when this method is called, spreading their definition across the access patterns, on purpose.
