module AplContextBuilder

  #Used as a place holder for contexts where validations are applicable for all types at parent level
  #For instance if a validation is applicable for some item irrespective of which invoice it belongs to, we can use all in the context
  #before specifying item type e.g. create_all_tax_item for tax_item validations irrespective of the invoice belongs to

  #This method will generate all contexts containing the leaf level entity
  #by substituting parent at each level with ALL_ENTITY_TYPES_CURRENT_LEVEL starting from the root
  #Ex Input - 'create', ['cost_invoice', 'product_item', 'sub_item_type']
  #Output - ["create_cost_invoice_product_item_sub_item_type", "create_all_product_item_sub_item_type", "create_all_all_sub_item_type"]
