Returns:

the connection provider

events

EntityEditor.PersistEvents events()

Returns:

the EntityEditor.PersistEvents

publishPersistenceEvents

State publishPersistenceEvents()

Returns:

a state controlling whether this edit model publishes insert, update and delete events on the PersistenceEvents event bus.

See Also:

• PUBLISH_PERSISTENCE_EVENTS

entity

EntityEditor.EditorEntity entity()

Returns:

the EntityEditor.EditorEntity instance

exists

EntityEditor.Exists exists()

Returns:

an ObservableState indicating whether the entity exists in the database

See Also:

• EntityEditor.Exists.predicate()

modified

EntityEditor.Modified modified()

Returns an ObservableState indicating whether any values have been modified.
