Converting binary value to downloadable zipfile

I have a scenario where I have to convert binary data to zipfile and I have to download it in java.
I am struck with a part how to convert binary to zipformate. Any help will be appreciated.

You could follow the sample code below to convert your binary data file to zipfile:
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.util.zip.ZipEntry;
import java.util.zip.ZipInputStream;
import java.util.zip.ZipOutputStream;
class ZipTest {
public static void zip(String zipFileName, String inputFile)
throws Exception {
File f = new File(inputFile);
ZipOutputStream out = new ZipOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(
zipFileName));
zip(out, f, f.getName());
System.out.println("zip done");
out.close();
}
private static void zip(ZipOutputStream out, File f, String base)
throws Exception {
out.putNextEntry(new ZipEntry(base));
FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(f);
int b;
while ((b = in.read()) != -1)
out.write(b);
in.close();
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
ZipTest t = new ZipTest();
t.zip("c:\\test.zip", "c:\\1.txt");
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace(System.out);
}
}
}

Use this example to convert InputStream to ZipInputStream:
FileInputStream fin = new FileInputStream(args[i]);
ZipInputStream zin = new ZipInputStream(fin);
ZipEntry ze = null;
while ((ze = zin.getNextEntry()) != null) {
System.out.println("Unzipping " + ze.getName());
FileOutputStream fout = new FileOutputStream(ze.getName());
for (int c = zin.read(); c != -1; c = zin.read()) {
fout.write(c);
}
zin.closeEntry();
fout.close();
}
zin.close();

Download a file from MediaFire with Java

As we all know, or might know, MediaFire does not allow direct download links, but you actually have to click the Download button to generate a random link that refers to the file. Is there a way to fetch that link and download it?

In despair of writing an auto-updating application, I have written a short Java application which allows the download of files from MediaFire. Here is the full code:
import java.io.BufferedInputStream;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.net.URL;
import java.net.URLConnection;
public class mainwindow {
/**
* Launch the application.
*/
static mainwindow thisInstance;
public static void main(String[] args) {
new mainwindow();
}
public mainwindow()
{
otherthread();
}
public void otherthread()
{
navigate("http://www.mediafire.com/download/aqtmhwvb8yvqclu/SmartSharePC.jar","downloadedFromMediafire");
// navigate("http://www.mediafire.com/download/j7e4wh6hbdhdj84/Minecraft+1.5.2-+C.H.T.zip","mediafire");
}
private void navigate(String url,String sufix)
{
try
{
String downloadLink = fetchDownloadLink(getUrlSource(url));
saveUrl(downloadLink,sufix);
} catch (Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public void saveUrl(final String urlString,String sufix) throws Exception
{
System.out.println("Downloading...");
String filename = urlString.substring(urlString.lastIndexOf("/")+1, urlString.lastIndexOf("."))+"_"+sufix+urlString.substring(urlString.lastIndexOf("."), urlString.length());
BufferedInputStream in = null;
FileOutputStream fout = null;
try {
in = new BufferedInputStream(new URL(urlString).openStream());
fout = new FileOutputStream(filename);
final byte data[] = new byte[1024];
int count;
while ((count = in.read(data, 0, 1024)) != -1)
{
fout.write(data, 0, count);
}
} finally {
if (in != null) {
in.close();
}
if (fout != null) {
fout.close();
}
}
System.out.println("Success!");
}
private static String getUrlSource(String url) throws IOException
{
System.out.println("Connecting...");
URL yahoo = new URL(url);
URLConnection yc = yahoo.openConnection();
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
yc.getInputStream(), "UTF-8"));
String inputLine;
String total="";
while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null)
total+=inputLine;
in.close();
return total;
}
private static String fetchDownloadLink(String str)
{
System.out.println("Fetching download link");
try {
String regex = "(?=\\<)|(?<=\\>)";
String data[] = str.split(regex);
String found = "NOTFOUND";
for (String dat : data) {
if (dat.contains("DLP_mOnDownload(this)")) {
found = dat;
break;
}
}
String wentthru = found.substring(found.indexOf("href=\"") + 6);
wentthru = wentthru.substring(0, wentthru.indexOf("\""));
return wentthru;
} catch (Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
return "ERROR";
}
}
}

Receiving Image file in java

I am using basic java Server Client module to send a picture.
I am using this link for guidance
Below is my source code for the client.I have issues while receiving the file.
package sclient;
import java.io.BufferedOutputStream;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.net.Socket;
public class Sclient {
public static void main(String[] argv) throws Exception {
Socket sock = new Socket("192.168.0.10", 123);
byte[] mybytearray = new byte[1024*1024];
InputStream is = sock.getInputStream();
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(System.getProperty("user.dir")+"/imageTest.jpg");
BufferedOutputStream bos = new BufferedOutputStream(fos);
int bytesRead = is.read(mybytearray, 0, mybytearray.length);
bos.write(mybytearray, 0, bytesRead);
bos.close();
sock.close();
}
}

Thats one util method of an android project, but its does the same. Reads and write is somewhere
/**
* #param inputStream
* #param inClose
* #return
* #throws IOException
*/
public static byte[] readContent(#NonNull final InputStream inputStream, final boolean inClose)
throws IOException {
Preconditions.checkNotNull(inClose, "InputStream");
//
final ByteArrayOutputStream theStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream(BUFFER_2K);
final byte[] theBuffer = new byte[BUFFER_2K];
try {
int theLength = inputStream.read(theBuffer);
while (theLength >= 0) {
theStream.write(theBuffer, 0, theLength);
theLength = inputStream.read(theBuffer);
}
return theStream.toByteArray();
} finally {
if (inClose) {
close(theStream);
}
}
}

Reading video data and writing to another file java

I am reading a video file data in bytes and sending to another file but the received video file is not playing properly and is chattered.
Can anyone explain me why this is happening and a solution is appreciated.
My code is as follows
import java.io.*;
public class convert {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//create file object
File file = new File("B:/music/Billa.mp4");
try
{
//create FileInputStream object
FileInputStream fin = new FileInputStream(file);
byte fileContent[] = new byte[(int)file.length()];
fin.read(fileContent);
//create string from byte array
String strFileContent = new String(fileContent);
System.out.println("File content : ");
System.out.println(strFileContent);
File dest=new File("B://music//a.mp4");
BufferedWriter bw=new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(dest));
bw.write(strFileContent+"\n");
bw.flush();
}
catch(FileNotFoundException e)
{
System.out.println("File not found" + e);
}
catch(IOException ioe)
{
System.out.println("Exception while reading the file " + ioe);
}
}
}

This question might be dead but someone might find this useful.
You can't handle video as string. This is the correct way to read and write (copy) any file using Java 7 or higher.
Please note that size of buffer is processor-dependent and usually should be a power of 2. See this answer for more details.
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
public class FileCopy {
public static void main(String args[]) {
final int BUFFERSIZE = 4 * 1024;
String sourceFilePath = "D:\\MyFolder\\MyVideo.avi";
String outputFilePath = "D:\\OtherFolder\\MyVideo.avi";
try(
FileInputStream fin = new FileInputStream(new File(sourceFilePath));
FileOutputStream fout = new FileOutputStream(new File(outputFilePath));
){
byte[] buffer = new byte[BUFFERSIZE];
while(fin.available() != 0) {
bytesRead = fin.read(buffer);
fout.write(buffer, 0, bytesRead);
}
}
catch(Exception e) {
System.out.println("Something went wrong! Reason: " + e.getMessage());
}
}
}

Hope this also helpful for you - This can read and write a file into another file (You can use any file type to do that)
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
public class Copy {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
FileInputStream input = new FileInputStream("input.mp4"); //input file
byte[] data = input.readAllBytes();
FileOutputStream output = new FileOutputStream("output.mp4"); //output file
output.write(data);
output.close();
}
}

import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.BufferedWriter;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.FileWriter;
import javax.imageio.ImageIO;
public class Reader {
public Reader() throws Exception{
File file = new File("C:/Users/Digilog/Downloads/Test.mp4");
FileInputStream fin = new FileInputStream(file);
byte b[] = new byte[(int)file.length()];
fin.read(b);
File nf = new File("D:/K.mp4");
FileOutputStream fw = new FileOutputStream(nf);
fw.write(b);
fw.flush();
fw.close();
}
}

In addition to Jakub Orsula's answer, one needs to check the result of read operation to prevent garbage being written to end of file in last iteration.
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
public class FileCopy {
public static void main(String args[]) {
final int BUFFERSIZE = 4 * 1024;
String sourceFilePath = "D:\\MyFolder\\MyVideo.avi";
String outputFilePath = "D:\\OtherFolder\\MyVideo.avi";
try(
FileInputStream fin = new FileInputStream(new File(sourceFilePath));
FileOutputStream fout = new FileOutputStream(new File(outputFilePath));
){
byte[] buffer = new byte[BUFFERSIZE];
int bytesRead;
while(fin.available() != 0) {
bytesRead = fin.read(buffer);
fout.write(buffer, 0, bytesRead);
}
}
catch(Exception e) {
System.out.println("Something went wrong! Reason: " + e.getMessage());
}
}
}

Base64 image encoding using java

I am trying to encode images using base64 encoding on the image URL.
But it gives the same encoding for all the URLs.
My code is as follows:
Object namee = url.openConnection().getContentType();
String name = (String) namee;
BufferedImage image = ImageIO.read(url);
//getting image extension from content type
String ext = name.substring(name.lastIndexOf("/") + 1);
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
ImageIO.write(image, ext, baos);
byte[] imageData = baos.toByteArray();
String base64value = Base64.encodeBase64URLSafeString(imageData);

This Code convert your image file/data to Base64 Format which is nothing but text representation of your Image.
To convert this you need Encoder & Decoder which you will get from http://www.source-code.biz/base64coder/java/. It is File Base64Coder.java you will need.
Now to access this class as per your requirement you will need class below:
import java.io.BufferedInputStream;
import java.io.BufferedOutputStream;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.BufferedWriter;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.FileWriter;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.OutputStream;
public class Base64 {
public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException {
/*
* if (args.length != 2) {System.out.println(
* "Command line parameters: inputFileName outputFileName");
* System.exit(9); } encodeFile(args[0], args[1]);
*/
File sourceImage = new File("back3.png");
File sourceImage64 = new File("back3.txt");
File destImage = new File("back4.png");
encodeFile(sourceImage, sourceImage64);
decodeFile(sourceImage64, destImage);
}
private static void encodeFile(File inputFile, File outputFile) throws IOException {
BufferedInputStream in = null;
BufferedWriter out = null;
try {
in = new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream(inputFile));
out = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(outputFile));
encodeStream(in, out);
out.flush();
} finally {
if (in != null)
in.close();
if (out != null)
out.close();
}
}
private static void encodeStream(InputStream in, BufferedWriter out) throws IOException {
int lineLength = 72;
byte[] buf = new byte[lineLength / 4 * 3];
while (true) {
int len = in.read(buf);
if (len <= 0)
break;
out.write(Base64Coder.encode(buf, 0, len));
out.newLine();
}
}
static String encodeArray(byte[] in) throws IOException {
StringBuffer out = new StringBuffer();
out.append(Base64Coder.encode(in, 0, in.length));
return out.toString();
}
static byte[] decodeArray(String in) throws IOException {
byte[] buf = Base64Coder.decodeLines(in);
return buf;
}
private static void decodeFile(File inputFile, File outputFile) throws IOException {
BufferedReader in = null;
BufferedOutputStream out = null;
try {
in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(inputFile));
out = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(outputFile));
decodeStream(in, out);
out.flush();
} finally {
if (in != null)
in.close();
if (out != null)
out.close();
}
}
private static void decodeStream(BufferedReader in, OutputStream out) throws IOException {
while (true) {
String s = in.readLine();
if (s == null)
break;
byte[] buf = Base64Coder.decodeLines(s);
out.write(buf);
}
}
}
In Android you can convert your Bitmap to Base64 for Uploading to Server/Web Service.
Bitmap bmImage = //Data
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
bmImage.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, baos);
byte[] imageData = baos.toByteArray();
String encodedImage = Base64.encodeArray(imageData);
This “encodedImage” is text representation of your Image. You can use this for either uploading purpose or for diplaying directly into HTML Page as below:
<img alt="" src="data:image/png;base64,<?php echo $encodedImage; ?>" width="100px" />
<img alt="" src="data:image/png;base64,/9j/4AAQ...........1f/9k=" width="100px" />

Here is a working example on how to convert image to base64 with Java.
public static String encodeToString(BufferedImage image, String type) {
String base64String = null;
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
try {
ImageIO.write(image, type, bos);
byte[] imageBytes = bos.toByteArray();
BASE64Encoder encoder = new BASE64Encoder();
base64String = encoder.encode(imageBytes);
bos.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return base64String;
}
