package attributes

// Attributes is an immutable struct for storing and retrieving generic
// key/value pairs.  Keys must be hashable, and users should define their own
// types for keys.  Values should not be modified after they are added to an
// Attributes or if they were received from one.  If values implement 'Equal(o
// interface{}) bool', it will be called by (*Attributes).Equal to determine
// whether two values with the same key should be considered equal.
type Attributes struct {
	m map[interface{}]interface{}
}

// New returns a new Attributes containing the key/value pair.
func New(key, value interface{}) *Attributes {
	return &Attributes{m: map[interface{}]interface{}{key: value}}
}

// WithValue returns a new Attributes containing the previous keys and values
// and the new key/value pair.  If the same key appears multiple times, the
// last value overwrites all previous values for that key.  To remove an
// existing key, use a nil value.  value should not be modified later.
func (a *Attributes) WithValue(key, value interface{}) *Attributes {
	if a == nil {
		return New(key, value)
	}
	n := &Attributes{m: make(map[interface{}]interface{}, len(a.m)+1)}

// Equal returns whether a and o are equivalent.  If 'Equal(o interface{})
// bool' is implemented for a value in the attributes, it is called to
// determine if the value matches the one stored in the other attributes.  If
// Equal is not implemented, standard equality is used to determine if the two
// values are equal. Note that some types (e.g. maps) aren't comparable by
// default, so they must be wrapped in a struct, or in an alias type, with Equal
// defined.
