How to handle Arabic in java
(2 answers)
Closed 6 years ago.
I hit a URL with an Arabic parameter value (like below):
http://62.215.226.164/fccsms_P.aspx?UID=something&P=somethingS=InfoText&G=96567771404&M=اخص شقث غخع خن ؤخةث&L=E
It works perfectly; I get the message on a phone in Arabic. When I try to achieve the same through the following code, though, I only get question marks in the message.
public void sendSms(SendSms object)
throws MalformedURLException, ProtocolException, IOException
{
String message = new String(object.getMessage().getBytes(), "UTF-8");
System.out.println(message); // This also prints only question marks
PrintStream out = new PrintStream(System.out, true, "UTF-8");
out.print(message);
String charset="UTF-8";
URL url = new URL("http://62.215.226.164/fccsms_P.aspx");
HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
con.setRequestProperty("Accept-Charset", charset);
con.setRequestMethod("POST");
// con.setRequestProperty("User-Agent", USER_AGENT);
con.setRequestProperty("Accept-Language", "en-US,en,ar_KW;q=0.5");
con.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "text/html;charset=utf-8");
String urlParameters = "UID=test&P=test&S=InfoText&G=965" + object.getPhone() + "&M= Hello " + object.getName() + " " + message + " &L=A";
// Send post request
con.setDoOutput(true);
DataOutputStream wr = new DataOutputStream(con.getOutputStream());
wr.writeBytes(urlParameters);
wr.flush();
wr.close();
int responseCode = con.getResponseCode();
System.out.println("\nSending 'POST' request to URL : " + url);
System.out.println("Post parameters : " + urlParameters);
System.out.println("Response Code : " + responseCode);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(con.getInputStream()));
String inputLine;
StringBuffer response = new StringBuffer();
while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null) {
response.append(inputLine);
}
in.close();
}
To get the message in Arabic, what do I need to add or change in the code?
If you want to send Arabic data as parameter you need to encode this data to UTF-8.
You can use following code to get the proper output.
BufferedWriter bw = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(conn.getOutputStream(), "UTF-8"));
bw.write(urlParameters);
bw.flush();
bw.close();
The problem occurred in the following code. So replace your code below with the code above.
DataOutputStream wr = new DataOutputStream(con.getOutputStream());
wr.writeBytes(urlParameters);
wr.flush();
wr.close();
It is because http doesn't support the characterset,
your browser handles url-encoding automatically,
In your code you need to encode each parameter separately because of special characters eg. asuming object.getMessage() does not return ???:
String message = URLEncoder.encode(
""اخص شقث غخع خن ؤخةث",
java.nio.charset.StandardCharsets.UTF_8.toString() );
And then concatenate:
String urlParameters = "UID=...&M=" + message + "&L=A";

I'm trying to send a POST request to grab comments but it doesn't work in Java while it does work with postman.
I get an 403 Forbidden error, but on postman it retrieves the data i need just fine..
Here's the Java code I'm trying to use to replicate the behavior.
String targetUrl = YOUTBE_COMMENTS_AJAX_URL;
String urlParameters = "action_load_comments=1&order_by_time=True&filter=jBjXVrS8nXs";
String updatedURL = targetUrl + "?" + urlParameters;
URL url = null;
InputStream stream = null;
HttpURLConnection urlConnection = null;
try {
url = new URL(updatedURL);
urlConnection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
urlConnection.setRequestMethod("POST");
urlConnection.setRequestProperty("content-type", "multipart/form-data");
urlConnection.setRequestProperty("user-agent", "USER_AGENT");
urlConnection.setDoOutput(true);
String data = URLEncoder.encode("video_id", "UTF-8")
+ "=" + URLEncoder.encode(youtubeId, "UTF-8");
data += "&" + URLEncoder.encode("session_token", "UTF-8") + "="
+ URLEncoder.encode(xsrfToken, "UTF-8");
data += "&" + URLEncoder.encode("page_token", "UTF-8") + "="
+ URLEncoder.encode(pageToken, "UTF-8");
urlConnection.connect();
OutputStreamWriter wr = new OutputStreamWriter(urlConnection.getOutputStream());
wr.write(data);
wr.flush();
stream = urlConnection.getInputStream();
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(stream, "UTF-8"), 8);
String result = reader.readLine();
return result;
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if (urlConnection != null) {
urlConnection.disconnect();
}
}
try {
Thread.sleep(2000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
Here's an example of what postman is sending in their headers
It seems like your problem is here (see inline comments):
DataOutputStream wr = new DataOutputStream(conn.getOutputStream());
wr.writeBytes(urlParameters);
// you wrote your URL parameters into Body
wr.flush();
wr.close();
//You closed your body and told server - you are done with request
conn.getOutputStream().write(postDataBytes);
// you wrote data into closed stream - server does not care about it anymore.
You have to append your urlParameters directly to the URL when you open it
Then you have to write your Form Data into body as you do:
conn.getOutputStream().write(postDataBytes);
and then close output stream
I have this code to send JSON data (passed as a string) to the server (This code works when English characters are to be sent as values in dataJSON as far as I tested):
private static String sendPost(String url, String dataJSON) throws Exception {
System.out.println("Data to send: " + dataJSON);
URL obj = new URL(url);
HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection) obj.openConnection();
String type = "application/json;charset=utf-8";
// add reuqest header
con.setRequestMethod("POST");
con.setRequestProperty("User-Agent", "Mozilla/5.0");
con.setRequestProperty("Accept-Language", "en-US,en;q=0.5");
con.setRequestProperty("Content-Length", String.valueOf(dataJSON.getBytes("UTF-8").length));
con.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", type);
// Send post request
con.setDoOutput(true);
DataOutputStream wr = new DataOutputStream(con.getOutputStream());
wr.writeUTF(dataJSON);
wr.flush();
wr.close();
int responseCode = con.getResponseCode();
System.out.println("\nSending 'POST' request to URL : " + url);
System.out.println("Response Code : " + responseCode);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(con.getInputStream()));
String inputLine;
StringBuffer response = new StringBuffer();
while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null) {
response.append(inputLine);
}
in.close();
System.out.print("Response string from POST: " + response.toString() + "\n");
return response.toString();
}
Problem is I don't get correct response, which I get for example using DHC Restlet Client.
The problem is I think the dataJSON must be encoded in UTF8. That's how the server expects it most likely.
But it seems I have some problem in code the way I try to convert it and send it.
Can someone help me send data in body as UTF8 string in above example?
I think I solved with this approach:
private static String sendPost2(String urlStr, String dataJSON) throws Exception {
URL url = new URL(urlStr);
HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
conn.setConnectTimeout(5000);
conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/json; charset=UTF-8");
conn.setDoOutput(true);
conn.setDoInput(true);
conn.setRequestMethod("POST");
OutputStream os = conn.getOutputStream();
os.write(dataJSON.getBytes("UTF-8"));
os.close();
// read the response
InputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(conn.getInputStream());
String result = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in)) .lines().collect(Collectors.joining("\n"));
in.close();
conn.disconnect();
return result;
}
Please suggest alternative if you see problem with it.
I have to automate API through selenium+TestNG (Java). I know its not a good habit to automate APIs using selenium code but still I have got this to do.
Scenario - there is a login API and have to send the email and password and get response back (response code 200). Also can we print the response information also?
If you are working on java you can use JAVA socket libraries for the same:
Here are the sample code for POST API:
URL obj = new URL(url);
con = (HttpsURLConnection) obj.openConnection();
// add request header
con.setRequestMethod("POST");
con.setRequestProperty("User-Agent", USER_AGENT);
String urlParameters = "j_username=" + user + "&j_password=" + pass
+ "";
// Send post request
con.setDoOutput(true);
DataOutputStream wr = new DataOutputStream(con.getOutputStream());
wr.writeBytes(urlParameters);
wr.flush();
wr.close();
responseCode = con.getResponseCode();
System.out.println("\nSending 'POST' request to URL : " + url);
System.out.println("Post parameters : " + urlParameters);
System.out.println("Response Code : " + responseCode);
For GET API:
obj = new URL(url);
obj.openConnection();
con = (HttpsURLConnection) obj.openConnection();
// optional default is GET
con.setRequestMethod("GET");
CookieHandler.setDefault(new CookieManager());
// add request header
con.setRequestProperty("User-Agent", USER_AGENT);
con.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "text/plain; charset=utf-8");
con.setRequestProperty("Accept-Language", "en-US,en;q=0.8l");
con.setRequestProperty("Accept", "*/*");
con.setRequestProperty(
"Cookie",
"BIGipServerPRODCAN-Default=423078080.2087.0000; __utma=44365112.1659763098.1418886605.1427784911.1441869730.4; __utmc=44365112; __utmz=44365112.1427784911.3.2.utmcsr=google|utmccn=(organic)|utmcmd=organic|utmctr=(not%20provided); JSESSIONID="
+ cookieValue);
responseCode = con.getResponseCode();
System.out.println("\nSending 'GET' request to URL : " + url);
System.out.println("Response Code : " + responseCode);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
con.getInputStream()));
String inputLine;
StringBuffer response = new StringBuffer();
File file = new File(prop.getFilePath() + "//XMLs//" + fileName
+ ".xml");
file.delete();
FileWriter fstream = new FileWriter(prop.getFilePath() + "//XMLs//"
+ fileName + ".xml", true);
BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(fstream);
while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null) {
out.write(inputLine.toString());
out.newLine();
response.append(inputLine);
}
in.close();
out.close();`
I am using HttpUrlConnection to post some data to my server here is the function:
private String register(String myurl) throws IOException {
String resp = null;
try {
JSONObject parameters = new JSONObject();
// parameters.put("jsonArray", ((makeJSON())));
parameters.put("key", "key");//getencryptkey());
URL url = new URL(myurl);
HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
// conn.setReadTimeout(10000 /* milliseconds *///);
// conn.setConnectTimeout(15000 /* milliseconds */);
conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/json");
conn.setDoOutput(true);
conn.setDoInput(true);
conn.setRequestMethod("POST");
OutputStream out = new BufferedOutputStream(conn.getOutputStream());
BufferedWriter writer = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(out, "UTF-8"));
writer.write(parameters.toString());
writer.close();
out.close();
int responseCode = conn.getResponseCode();
System.out.println("\nSending 'POST' request to URL : " + url);
System.out.println("Response Code : " + responseCode);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(conn.getInputStream()));
String inputLine;
StringBuffer response = new StringBuffer();
while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null) {
response.append(inputLine);
}
in.close();
System.out.println("strngbuffr" + response.toString());
resp = response.toString();
} catch (Exception exception) {
System.out.println("Exception: " + exception);
}
System.out.println("rsp"+ resp.toString());
return resp.toString();
}
I get the response code as 200, which means connection is okay however I get empty variables on PHP side, what can be wrong here?
Earlier I was sending a JSON array too but just to test functonality I commented that out now I am only sending one variable key as "key"
Its amazing to see, this sample code works - sans the JSON array and the key value pairs:
private String sendPost(String url) throws Exception {
String USER_AGENT = "Mozilla/5.0";
URL obj = new URL(url);
HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection) obj.openConnection();
//add reuqest header
con.setRequestMethod("POST");
con.setRequestProperty("User-Agent", USER_AGENT);
con.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
String urlParameters ="sn=C02G8416DRJM&cn=&locale=&caller=&num=12345";
// Send post request
con.setDoOutput(true);
DataOutputStream wr = new DataOutputStream(con.getOutputStream());
wr.writeBytes(urlParameters);
wr.flush();
wr.close();
int responseCode = con.getResponseCode();
System.out.println("\nSending 'POST' request to URL : " + url);
System.out.println("Post parameters : " + urlParameters);
System.out.println("Response Code : " + responseCode);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(con.getInputStream()));
String inputLine;
StringBuffer response = new StringBuffer();
while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null) {
response.append(inputLine);
}
in.close();
//print result
System.out.println("rvsp"+response.toString());
return response.toString();
}
So it boils down to replacing this:
JSONObject parameters = new JSONObject();
parameters.put("jsonArray", new JSONArray(Arrays.asList(makeJSON())));
parameters.put("key", getencryptkey());
by this:
String urlParameters ="jArr="+makeJSON()+"Key="+getencryptkey();
and I am still curious.
I reckon the problem here is not at the Java side, If the parameters is of fixed type like in json in your case, the JSON Object as POST params method will work if collected this way on the php side:
<?php
$json = file_get_contents('php://input');
$obj = json_decode($json);
print_r($obj);
print_r("this is a test response");
?>

Im trying to access to Google APIs using OAuth 2.0
but i always receive the http 400 when i try to get the token
I'm using Tomcat8 with Java SDK 8
And i don't know what is wrong.
private void sendPost(
final String code,
final String clientId,
final String clientSecret,
final String redirectUri,
final String grantType) throws Exception {
String url = "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token";
StringBuffer strb = new StringBuffer();
strb.append("code=" + code);
strb.append("&client_id=" + clientId);
strb.append("&client_secret=" + clientSecret);
strb.append("&redirect_uri=" + redirectUri);
strb.append("&grant_type=" + grantType);
String urlParameters = strb.toString();
URL obj = new URL(url);
HttpsURLConnection con = (HttpsURLConnection) obj.openConnection();
con.setRequestMethod("POST");
con.setDoOutput(true);
con.setRequestProperty("Content-Type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
con.setRequestProperty("Content-Length", String.valueOf(urlParameters.length()));
// Send post request
con.setDoOutput(true);
DataOutputStream wr = new DataOutputStream(con.getOutputStream());
wr.writeBytes(urlParameters);
wr.flush();
wr.close();
int responseCode = con.getResponseCode();
System.out.println("\nSending 'POST' request to URL : " + url);
System.out.println("Post parameters : " + urlParameters);
System.out.println("Response Code : " + responseCode);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
con.getInputStream()));
String inputLine;
StringBuffer response = new StringBuffer();
while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null) {
response.append(inputLine);
}
in.close();
// print result
System.out.println(response.toString());
}
My output is the following it seems that all parameters are ok.
Sending 'POST' request to URL : https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token
Post parameters : code=<code>.InoAg9JcLi0boiIBeO6P2m94pmoskwI&client_id=<clientid>.apps.googleusercontent.com&client_secret=<secret>&redirect_uri=http://localhost:8080/Oauth/connect&grant_type=authorization_code
Response Code : 400
you'd want to url-encode the parameters
I don't think Google supports redirect_uri's pointing to "localhost" anymore so that would suggest that you got the "code" on a different redirect_uri than the one presented on the token endpoint request
