## com.google.appengine.api.blobstore
Class BlobInfoFactory

    java.lang.Object
      com.google.appengine.api.blobstore.BlobInfoFactory

    public final class BlobInfoFactory

extends java.lang.Object

`BlobInfoFactory` provides a trivial interface for retrieving `BlobInfo` metadata.

BlobInfo metadata is stored in read-only `__BlobInfo__` entities in the datastore. This class provides an easy way to access these entities. For more complex queries, you can use the datastore directly.

Field Summary
`static java.lang.String` | `CONTENT_TYPE`
`static java.lang.String` | `CREATION`
`static java.lang.String` | `FILENAME`
`static java.lang.String` | `KIND`
`static java.lang.String` | `SIZE`

Constructor Summary
`BlobInfoFactory()` Creates a `BlobInfoFactory` that uses the default implementation of `DatastoreService`.
`BlobInfoFactory(DatastoreService datastoreService)` Creates a `BlobInfoFactory` with the specified implementation of `DatastoreService`.

Method Summary
`BlobInfo` | `createBlobInfo(Entity entity)` Creates a `BlobInfo` by extracting content from the specified `Entity`.
`BlobInfo` | `loadBlobInfo(BlobKey blobKey)` Loads the `BlobInfo` metadata for `blobKey`.
`java.util.Iterator<BlobInfo>` | `queryBlobInfos()` Queries for `BlobInfo` instances, beginning with the `BlobKey` that appears first in lexicographic order.
`java.util.Iterator<BlobInfo>` | `queryBlobInfosAfter(BlobKey previousBlob)` Queries for `BlobInfo` instances, beginning at the blob following `previousBlob` in lexicographic order.

Constructor Detail

### BlobInfoFactory

    public BlobInfoFactory()

  Creates a `BlobInfoFactory` that uses the default implementation of `DatastoreService`.

### BlobInfoFactory

    public BlobInfoFactory(DatastoreService datastoreService)

  Creates a `BlobInfoFactory` with the specified implementation of `DatastoreService`.

Method Detail

### loadBlobInfo

    public BlobInfo loadBlobInfo(BlobKey blobKey)

  Loads the `BlobInfo` metadata for `blobKey`. Returns `null` if no matching blob is found.

### queryBlobInfos

    public java.util.Iterator<BlobInfo> queryBlobInfos()

  Queries for `BlobInfo` instances, beginning with the `BlobKey` that appears first in lexicographic order.

### queryBlobInfosAfter

    public java.util.Iterator<BlobInfo> queryBlobInfosAfter(BlobKey previousBlob)

  Queries for `BlobInfo` instances, beginning at the blob following `previousBlob` in lexicographic order. If `previousBlob` is null, the first blob will be returned.

  This is useful for displaying discrete pages of blobs.

### createBlobInfo

    public BlobInfo createBlobInfo(Entity entity)

  Creates a `BlobInfo` by extracting content from the specified `Entity`.
