WordAPI ApiException caught: Not Found

I'm following [this][1] documentation to connect to api, I want to build a JavaFX app that you can enter a word and it's retrieves it from api and I wanted to test the feature before displaying contents on GUI. Howerer I got this exception that the words is not found while I tested endpoint in their website and that word had definitions. I'm pretty new to using API perhaps I missed something that isn't shown in the documentation?
Here is my code:
public void testDetailsWords(String word,String detail) {
//String word = "lovely"; // Word
//String detail = "definitions"; // Detail
TimeZone.setDefault(TimeZone.getTimeZone("UTC"));
apiClient = Configuration.getDefaultApiClient();
apiClient.setBasePath("https://www.wordsapi.com/");
// configure authentications
Authentication auth;
auth = apiClient.getAuthentication("Default");
((ApiKeyAuth) auth).setApiKey(Apikey);
try {
WordsApi wordsApi = new WordsApi();
DetailsResponse response = wordsApi.details(word, detail);
System.out.println(response);
} catch (ApiException e) {
System.out.printf("ApiException caught: %s\n", e.getMessage());
}
}
Here is my Controller code :
#FXML
private void handleDefinitions(ActionEvent event) throws IOException {
String word =definitionsfield.getText();
String detail= "definitions";
apiCall.testDetailsWords(word,detail);
}
I would be grateful for the help.

It's seems that tutorial that I tried following is very misleading which is very dissapoing, but I've learned my lesson now .
I decided to use Unirest to get request and it's worked perfectly.
If you stumble upon the link it's better not to follow that tutorial

How do I create an Alfresco site programmatically from a repository webscript?

I've implemented an Alfresco repository webscript (in Java) to programmatically create a new site.
I notice that there's a SiteService interface which I thought could be used to do this -
SiteInfo site = siteService.createSite("site-dashboard", "mySite",
"mySite", "", SiteVisibility.PUBLIC);
However, this results in the creation of a non-functional site, and although it's visible within the Alfresco Share dashboard, I'm not able to use it.
I then came across this code sample, which is doing exactly what I want. BUT the code includes a section to do authentication, involving sending the user's login and password details to a dologin web service. Don't really want to do this.
But as the user has already logged in via Alfresco Share, they should already be authenticated.
If I call the create-site webscript from my code, as shown in the example (without the initial call to dologin), I'm getting a 401 (unauthorised) return code.
So my question is, how do I tell the create-site webscript about my authentication?
I read about using an authentication ticket here. Is this ticket stored in the session, and if so, how do I access it within my Java code? If I could get the ticket, then this would be sufficient to invoke the create-site webscript.
Update: I've added the alf_ticket parameter as suggested by the comment, but I'm still getting a 401 response.
My current code is:
public NodeRef createServiceChange(String serviceChangeName) {
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
String ticket = authService.getCurrentTicket();
PostMethod createSitePost = new PostMethod("http://localhost:8081/share/service/modules/create-site");
JSONObject siteObject = new JSONObject();
try {
siteObject.put("shortName", serviceChangeName);
siteObject.put("visiblity", "Public");
siteObject.put("sitePreset", "site-dashboard");
siteObject.put("title", serviceChangeName);
siteObject.put("description", serviceChangeName);
siteObject.put("alf_ticket", ticket);
createSitePost.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");
createSitePost.setRequestHeader("Accept", "application/json");
createSitePost.setRequestEntity(new StringRequestEntity(siteObject.toString(), "application/json", "UTF-8"));
int status = client.executeMethod(createSitePost);
System.out.println("create a site script status :: " + status);
if (status == HttpStatus.SC_OK) {
System.out.println("Site created OK");
}
else{
System.out.println("There is error in site creation");
}
} catch (JSONException err) {
err.printStackTrace();
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (HttpException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}

So I've managed to successfully create a site, programmatically, and here's what I did:
First, forget about writing a repository (platform) webscript. Creation of sites in Alfresco is done by invoking a Share module, so you'll need to implement either a page, or custom menu item to create a site. I was also getting a lot of problems with authentication, but if you log in to the system via Alfresco Share, and in your Javascript, use the provided Alfresco Ajax request, then authentication shouldn't be a problem.
Here are the components I used:-
Create a Share page to create your site. In the Freemarker template (.ftl) add a form to collect the site details.
Attach a button on the form to the following Javascript function. Note that I cobbled this together from various code fragments on the web, so it could use some cleaning up. But it basically works for me -
function create_site()
{
var sc_form = document.forms.namedItem('sc_form');
var name = sc_form.elements.namedItem('name').value;
var url = Alfresco.constants.URL_CONTEXT + "service/modules/create-site";
Alfresco.util.Ajax.request({
method : Alfresco.util.Ajax.POST,
url : url,
dataObj: {
sitePreset: "site-dashboard",
visibility: "PUBLIC",
title: name,
shortName: name,
description: name
},
requestContentType: Alfresco.util.Ajax.JSON,
successCallback:
{
fn: function(res){
alert("success");
alert(res.responseText);
},
scope: this
},
failureCallback:
{
fn: function(response)
{
Alfresco.util.PopupManager.displayPrompt(
{
title: Alfresco.util.message("message.failure", this.name),
text: "search failed"
});
},
scope: this
}
});
}

Google Drive for Android SDK Doesn't List Files

I've got a really odd problem with the Google Drive Android SDK. I've been using it for several months now, and until last week it performed perfectly. However, there is now a really odd error, which doesn't occur all the time but does 9 out of 10 times.
I'm trying to list the user's files and folders stored in a particular Google Drive folder. When I'm trying to use the method Drive.files().list().execute(), 9 out of 10 times literally nothing happens. The method just hangs, and even if I leave it for an hour, it just remains doing... nothing.
The code I'm using is below - all of this being run within the doInBackground of an AsyncTask. I've checked credentials - they are all fine, as is the app's certificate's SHA1 hash. No exceptions are thrown. Google searches have yielded nothing. Here is the particular bit of code that's bothering me:
try {
GoogleAccountCredential credential = GoogleAccountCredential.usingOAuth2(
SettingsActivity.this, Arrays.asList(DriveScopes.DRIVE));
if (googleAccountName != null && googleAccountName.length() > 0) {
credential.setSelectedAccountName(googleAccountName);
Drive service = new Drive.Builder(AndroidHttp.newCompatibleTransport(),
new GsonFactory(), credential).build();
service.files().list().execute(); // Google Drive fails here
} else {
// ...
}
} catch (final UserRecoverableAuthIOException e) {
// Authorisation Needed
runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
try {
startActivityForResult(e.getIntent(), REQUEST_AUTHORISE_GDRIVE);
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("SettingsActivity: Google Drive", "Unable to add Google Drive account due to Exception after trying to show the Google Drive authroise request intent, as the UserRecoverableIOException was originally thrown. Error message:\n" + e.getMessage());
}
}
});
Log.d("SettingsActivity: Google Drive", "UserRecoverableAuthIOException when trying to add Google Drive account. This is normal if this is the first time the user has tried to use Google Drive. Error message:\n" + e.getMessage());
return;
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("SettingsActivity: Google Drive", "Unable to add Google Drive account. Error message:\n" + e.getMessage());
return;
}
I'm using Drive API v2. Thanks everyone!
Edit
Having played around a bit more, it turns out this isn't for just listing files. Trying to interact with any file on Google Drive behaves the same way - deleting, downloading, creating... Anything! I have also noticed that putting the device in aeroplane mode so it has not internet access makes no difference either: Google Drive doesn't throw an exception, or even return, it just freezes the thread it's on.
I've updated to the very latest Drive API lib but that hasn't helped. I remembered that the error happened soon after I added the JSch SSH library to the project, so I removed that, but it made no difference. Removing and re-adding the Drive API v2 has made no difference either, and nor has cleaning the project.
Edit 2
I've found something which may be significant. On the Google Developer console, I had some Drive errors recorded as follows:
TOP ERRORS:
Requests % Requests Methods Error codes
18 38.30% drive.files.list 400
14 29.79% drive.files.insert 500
11 23.40% drive.files.update 500
4 8.51% drive.files.get 400
Do you reckon these are the errors? How could I fix them? Thanks

This is my code and it's work
new AsyncTask<Void, Void, List<File>>() {
#Override
protected List<File> doInBackground(Void... params) {
List<File> result = new ArrayList<File>();
try {
com.google.api.services.drive.Drive.Files.List list = service.files().list();
list.setQ("'" + sourcePath + "' in parents");
FileList fileList = list.execute();
result = fileList.getItems();
if(result != null) {
return result;
}
} catch (UserRecoverableAuthIOException e) {
startActivityForResult(e.getIntent(), REQUEST_AUTHORIZATION);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
protected void onPostExecute(List<File> result) {
//This is List file from Google Drive
};
}.execute();

I've come up with a solution which does work, and thought I'd post it so others could see it if they happen to come across the problem.
Luckily, I had backed up all of the previous versions of the app. So I restored the whole project to how it was two weeks ago, copied and pasted all changes from the newer version which had been made since then, and it worked. I don't see why this should work, since the end result is the same project, but it does!

Google Drive List Files
This might help you.. Try to display it in ListView u will see all fetched folders
public void if_db_updated(Drive service)
{
try {
Files.List request = service.files().list().setQ("mimeType = 'application/vnd.google-apps.folder'");
FileList files = request.execute();
for(File file : files.getItems())
{
String title = file.getTitle();
showToast(title);
}
} catch (UserRecoverableAuthIOException e) {
startActivityForResult(e.getIntent(), REQUEST_AUTHORIZATION);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public void showToast(final String toast) {
runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), toast, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});

Block videos in android webview - Alternative to shouldInterceptRequest()

I have created a web browser using webview in android. My aim is to control the content of the webview before it is loaded. Whenever the content of the webview makes a request to any domain server, it has to pass through shoulInterceptRequest(). If the url is pointing to any video uploading sites(youtube.com, vimeo.com), I can change it to some Access Denied url so that video will not be loaded.
#Override
public WebResourceResponse shouldInterceptRequest(final WebView view, String url) {
try {
if (access.permission(url)) {
return super.shouldInterceptRequest(view, url);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return getResponseData();
}
private WebResourceResponse getResponseData() {
try {
String str = "Access Denied";
InputStream data = new ByteArrayInputStream(str.getBytes("UTF-8"));
return new WebResourceResponse("text/css", "UTF-8", data);
} catch (IOException e) {
return null;
}
}
But shoulInterceptRequest() is availabe from API 11. I NEED it to work from API 8.
Is there any alternative way to implement it ? I need to block the url if it is potinting to any video uploading sites BEFORE LOADING ANY DATA.

How about using the http://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/WebViewClient.html#shouldOverrideUrlLoading(android.webkit.WebView, java.lang.String) event?
You can block the url and then call http://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/WebView.html#loadUrl(java.lang.String) to show anything you want (and even run arbitrary javascript with the "javascript:do_something()" notation)

Using the content handler API (JSR 211) to open applications

I want to be able to launch native and J2ME applications through my application using the content handler API (JSR 211) on a Nokia 6212.
At the moment, I am unable to do so, as it always states that there is "No Content Handler Found" and throws a javax.microedition.content.ContentHandlerException.
At the moment, I am trying to get the phone to launch its browser and go to a certain website, just to test that I can use the framework. I have tried many different Invocation objects:
//throw exceptions
new Invocation("http://www.somesite.com/index.html",
"application/internet-shortcut");
new Invocation("http://www.google.co.uk","text/html");
// a long shot, I know
new Invocation("http://www.somesite.com/text.txt","text/plain");
// massive long shot
new Invocation("http://www.google.co.uk","application/browser");
//appears to download the link and content (and definitely does in the Nokia
// emulator) and then throws an exception
new Invocation("http://www.google.co.uk");
new Invocation("http://www.somesite.com/index.html");
Below is the code that I have been using, please bear in mind the parameters often changed to generate the different Invocation objects.
/*
* Invokes an application using the Content Handler API
*/
public void doInvoke(String url, String mime, String payload){
Registry register = Registry.getRegistry(this.getClass().getName());
Invocation invoke = new Invocation(url, mime, null, false,
ContentHandler.ACTION_OPEN);
boolean mustQuit = false;
try {
mustQuit = register.invoke(invoke);
} catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (ContentHandlerException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (SecurityException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
if(mustQuit){
this.quit();
}
}

Try this:
Registry register = Registry.getRegistry(this.getClass().getName());
You must call Registry.getRegistry for the MIDlet inheritor. Just use your MIDlet for getting the class name.
