public BaseFieldDefinition::getTargetEntityTypeId() Returns the ID of the entity type the field is attached to. This method should not be confused with EntityInterface::getEntityTypeId() (configurable fields are config entities, and thus implement both interfaces): FieldDefinitionInterface::getTargetEntityTypeId() answers "as a field, which entity type are you attached to?". EntityInterface::getEntityTypeId() answers "as a (config) entity, what is your own entity type?". Return value string

public BaseFieldDefinition::getTargetBundle() Gets the bundle the field is attached to. This method should not be confused with EntityInterface::bundle() (configurable fields are config entities, and thus implement both interfaces): FieldDefinitionInterface::getTargetBundle() answers "as a field, which bundle are you attached to?". EntityInterface::bundle() answers "as a (config) entity, what is your own bundle?" (not relevant in our case, the config entity types used to store the definitions

public BaseFieldDefinition::getProvider() Returns the name of the provider of this field. Return value string The provider name; e.g., the module name.

public BaseFieldDefinition::getSchema() Returns the field schema. Note that this method returns an empty array for computed fields which have no schema. Return value array[] The field schema, as an array of key/value pairs in the format returned by \Drupal\Core\Field\FieldItemInterface::schema(): columns: An array of Schema API column specifications, keyed by column name.

public BaseFieldDefinition::getName() Returns the machine name of the field. This defines how the field data is accessed from the entity. For example, if the field name is "foo", then $entity->foo returns its data. Return value string The field name.
