Grep files from file list

Following Linux script can be used to grep files from file list. Suppose you have file name list in "test2" file. Then, you can use following script to grep files in current location and copy these files to "/home/sujith/files/.

for k in `cat /home/sujith/test2`; 
do echo $k; 
cp *$k /home/sujith/files/.;
done

String Substring Linux

Suppose file "test" has strings with "-" separator. If you need to get the second part of the string into "test2" file, you can use the following command.

test

Insert URL in PDF using iReport

You can add a URL into your PDF file using following iReport xml file. PDF will show "Click Here!" text and URl will redirect to "http://www.google.com".

<textField hyperlinkType="Reference" hyperlinkTarget="Blank">
<reportElement x="5" y="5" width="200" height="15"/>
<textElement/>
<textFieldExpression class="java.lang.String"><![CDATA["Click Here!"]]></textFieldExpression>
<hyperlinkReferenceExpression><![CDATA["http://www.google.com"]]></hyperlinkReferenceExpression>
</textField>

Access Referenced Managed Bean in JSF

Following code can be used to reference one manged bean from another.

@ManagedBean(name="usingBean")
@RequestScoped
public class UsingBean 
{
    @ManagedProperty(value="#{neededBean}")
    private NeededBean neededBean;

    public NeededBean getNeededBean()
    {
    return neededBean;
    }

    public void setNeededBean(NeededBean neededBean)
    {
    this.neededBean = neededBean;
    }
}

Now, you can use the following methods to call referenced managed bean property in JAVA class.

ELContext elContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getELContext();
NeededBean neededBean 
    = (NeededBean) FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getApplication()
    .getELResolver().getValue(elContext, null, "neededBean");

---------------------------------- or --------------------------------------------

FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
NeededBean neededBean
    = (NeededBean)facesContext.getApplication()
      .createValueBinding("#{neededBean}").getValue(facesContext);

Restful Web Service Parameters

@PathParam

The @PathParam annotation binds the value of a path segment to a resource method parameter. For example, the following method would intercept an HTTP GET like http://server:port/login/12345 and convert the PathParam "12345" into the String "id"

@Path("/")
public class LoginService
{
  @GET
  @Path("login/{zip}")
  public String login(@PathParam("zip") String id) {
   return "Id is " +id;
  }
}
As for @FormParam, you can embed the @PathParam declaration at class level, if you prefer.

@QueryParam

The @QueryParam annotation binds the value of a path segment to a resource method parameter. For example, the following method would intercept an HTTP GET like http://server:port/login?zip=12345 and inject the query parameter "zip" into the method parameter "zip"

@Path("/")
public class LoginService
{
 @GET
 @Path("login/{zip}")
  public String login(@QueryParam("zip") String zip) {
   return "Id is " +id;
  }
}
QueryParam can be convenientely used with the DefaultValue annotation so that you can avoid a null pointer exception if no query parameter is passed.

@GET
@Path("login/{zip}")
public String login(@DefaultValue("11111") @QueryParam("zip") String zip) {
 return "Id is " +id;
 }
As for @FormParam, you can embed the @PathParam declaration at class level, if you prefer.

@HeaderParam

The @HeaderParam annotation extracts information from the HTTP header and binds it to a method parameter. Example:

@GET
public String callService(@HeaderParam("User-Agent") String whichBrowser) {
...
}

@CookieParam

The @CookieParam annotation reads an information stored as a cookie and binds it to a method parameter. Example:

@GET
public String callService(@CookieParam("sessionid") String sessionid) {

...
 }

@MatrixParam

The @MatrixParam annotation can be used to bind an expression containing several property=value to a method parameter. For example, supposing you were to invoke an URL like http://server:port/login;name=francesco;surname=marchioni

@GET
public String callService(@MatrixParam("name") String name,
                                @MatrixParam("surname") String surname) {
...
 }

Set default JAVA path

Sometimes you need to use several JAVA versions in a single machine. But you can't change default running JAVA version. Changing PATH variable doesn't affect for this. You can remove system32 JAVA exe file and reset JAVA path for new version to run newly installed JAVA version.

exe running directory :- C:\Windows\System32
application exe name :- java.exe

Now, try version in command prompt using java -version command. This will show new JAVA version.

Set email priority in JAVA

Following code can be used to set priority in email server. This is tested and worked fine.JAVA mail API is used for the development.

// Setting the priority of an email is simply a matter of setting the X-Priority header field.
// Values of 1 through 5 are acceptable
// 1 = highest priority, 3 = normal, and 5 = lowest priority.

// Set the email's priority to high:
email.AddHeaderField("X-Priority","1");

SFTP client with private key authentication

SFTP ( FTP over SSH ) is a secure way for file transferring. In JAVA application, you can use the following code to build a SFTP client with private key authentication. Here instead of password pass phase is used.

For this code, JSch JAVA library is used. Following jar files also used for code building.

  • jsch-0.1.51.jar
  • commons-vfs2-2.0.jar
  • commons-logging-1.2.jar

         JSch jSch = new JSch();
        final byte[] privatekey = readMyPrivateKeyFromFile(); // Private key must be byte array
        final byte[] passPhrase = "pass phase".getBytes();

        jSch.addIdentity(
            "myusername",    // String userName
            privatekey,          // byte[] privateKey 
            null,            // byte[] publicKey
            passPhrase  // byte[] passPhrase
        );
        Session session = jSch.getSession("myusername", "hostname", 22);
        UserInfo ui = new UserInfoImpl(); // UserInfoImpl implements UserInfo
        session.setUserInfo(ui);
        session.connect();
        Channel channel = session.openChannel("sftp");
        ChannelSftp sftp = (ChannelSftp) channel;
        sftp.connect();

// Now you can execute any SFTP command for the sftp channel.
        final Vector files = sftp.ls(".");
        for (Object obj : files) {
            System.out.println(obj.toString());
        }
        sftp.disconnect();
        session.disconnect();

SFTPconnection using RSA public key

Password encrypted RSA public key file can be used to authenticate user access to FTP server. Following SFTP command describes how to create secure connectivity using RSA public key with SFTP server.

sftp -o IdentityFile=/home/sujith/.ssh/id_rsa_pub_key sujith@192.168.1.23

I tried this on Linux server and worked fine.

Check sever status using Socket in JAVA

In some cases, you have to check server status whether server is running or not using telnet command before executing commands on the server application. This code can be used to check whether there is a running something on the given IP and Port.

import java.io.DataInputStream;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.net.*;

public class Telnet {

    public static void main(String args[]) {
        try {
            String ip =  "192.168.*.*";           
            int port = 23;
            Socket s1 = new Socket(ip, port);
            InputStream is = s1.getInputStream();
            DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream(is);
            if (dis != null) {
                System.out.println("Connected IP : " + ip + ", Port : " + port);
            } else {
                System.out.println("Connection Invalid.");
            }

            dis.close();
            s1.close();

        } catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println("Not Connected, check Ip and Port.");

        }

    }
}
