 fkAttribute -> {Entity instance with a single mapping refAttribute -> refValue}

 StringFactory.Builder builder = StringFactory.builder();

 builder.text("attribute1=")
        .value(attribute1)
        .text(", attribute3='")
        .value(attribute3)
        .text("' foreign key value=")
        .value(fkAttribute, refAttribute);

 System.out.println(builder.build().apply(entity));
 

outputs the following String:

attribute1=value1, attribute3='value3' foreign key value=refValue
