🏗️ CPE Builder

CPEBuilder provides a chainable fluent API for constructing CPE objects, internally backed by a WFN (Well-Formed Name) representation.

Type: CPEBuilder

type CPEBuilder struct {
    // contains unexported fields
}

CPEBuilder is an opaque struct: create it with NewCPEBuilder() and configure attributes via its chainable methods.

🆕 NewCPEBuilder

func NewCPEBuilder() *CPEBuilder

Returns a new CPEBuilder instance.

Return	Type	Description
#1	*CPEBuilder	A fresh builder instance

b := cpeskills.NewCPEBuilder()

⚙️ Chainable attribute methods

Each of the following returns *CPEBuilder to support chaining:

func (b *CPEBuilder) Part(part string) *CPEBuilder
func (b *CPEBuilder) Vendor(vendor string) *CPEBuilder
func (b *CPEBuilder) Product(product string) *CPEBuilder
func (b *CPEBuilder) Version(version string) *CPEBuilder
func (b *CPEBuilder) Update(update string) *CPEBuilder
func (b *CPEBuilder) Edition(edition string) *CPEBuilder
func (b *CPEBuilder) Language(language string) *CPEBuilder
func (b *CPEBuilder) SoftwareEdition(swEdition string) *CPEBuilder
func (b *CPEBuilder) TargetSoftware(targetSw string) *CPEBuilder
func (b *CPEBuilder) TargetHardware(targetHw string) *CPEBuilder
func (b *CPEBuilder) Other(other string) *CPEBuilder

Parameter	Type	Description
first arg	string	The corresponding attribute value

Return	Type	Description
#1	*CPEBuilder	The builder itself, for chaining

b := cpeskills.NewCPEBuilder().
    Part("a").
    Vendor("microsoft").
    Product("windows").
    Version("10")

🏷️ Application / OS / Hardware

func (b *CPEBuilder) Application() *CPEBuilder
func (b *CPEBuilder) OS() *CPEBuilder
func (b *CPEBuilder) Hardware() *CPEBuilder

Convenience setters that mark the part as application (a), operating system (o) or hardware (h) respectively.

Return	Type	Description
#1	*CPEBuilder	The builder itself

b := cpeskills.NewCPEBuilder().Application().Vendor("adobe").Product("acrobat_reader")

🏁 Build

func (b *CPEBuilder) Build() (*CPE, error)

Builds and returns the CPE object. Returns an error if any attribute is invalid.

Return	Type	Description
#1	*CPE	The built CPE object
#2	error	An error if building fails

cpe, err := cpeskills.NewCPEBuilder().
    Application().Vendor("microsoft").Product("windows").Version("10").
    Build()

🚀 MustBuild

func (b *CPEBuilder) MustBuild() *CPE

Builds and returns the CPE object, panicking on failure.

Return	Type	Description
#1	*CPE	The built CPE object

cpe := cpeskills.NewCPEBuilder().Application().Vendor("microsoft").Product("windows").MustBuild()

🔧 BuildWFN

func (b *CPEBuilder) BuildWFN() (*WFN, error)

Builds and returns the underlying WFN (Well-Formed Name) object.

Return	Type	Description
#1	*WFN	The built WFN object
#2	error	An error if building fails

wfn, err := cpeskills.NewCPEBuilder().Application().Vendor("microsoft").BuildWFN()
