Using M2Doc programmatically : Error in the generated .docx document

I'm trying to use M2Doc programmatically, I managed to generate my .docx file without getting errors in the validation part but I'm getting the following Error in the generated document:
{m:self.Name} Couldn't find the 'aqlFeatureAccess(org.eclipse.emf.common.util.URI.Hierarchical,java.lang.String)' service
The "self.Name" part is what I wrote in my template.
I think I'm lacking some kind of reference to a service but I don't know how to fix it.
The self variable is a reference to a model based on a meta-model I created. But I'm not sure I imported it correctly in my code.
I based my code on the code I found on the M2Doc website + some code I found on their GitHub, especially concerning how to add a service in the queryEnvironment.
I searched in the source code of acceleo and M2Doc to see which services they add but it seems that they already import all the services I'm using.
As I said, the validation part is going well and doesn't generate a validation file.
public static void parseDocument(String templateName) throws Exception{
final URI templateURI = URI.createFileURI("Template/"+templateName+"."+M2DocUtils.DOCX_EXTENSION_FILE);
final IQueryEnvironment queryEnvironment =
org.eclipse.acceleo.query.runtime.Query.newEnvironmentWithDefaultServices(null);
final Map<String, String> options = new HashMap<>(); // can be empty
M2DocUtils.prepareEnvironmentServices(queryEnvironment, templateURI, options); // delegate to IServicesConfigurator
prepareEnvironmentServicesCustom(queryEnvironment, options);
final IClassProvider classProvider = new ClassProvider(ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader()); // use M2DocPlugin.getClassProvider() when running inside Eclipse
try (DocumentTemplate template = M2DocUtils.parse(templateURI, queryEnvironment, classProvider)) {
ValidationMessageLevel validationLevel = validateDocument(template, queryEnvironment, templateName);
if(validationLevel == ValidationMessageLevel.OK){
generateDocument(template, queryEnvironment, templateName, "Model/ComplexKaosModel.kaos");
}
}
}
public static void prepareEnvironmentServicesCustom(IQueryEnvironment queryEnvironment, Map<String, String> options){
Set<IService> services = ServiceUtils.getServices(queryEnvironment, FilterService.class);
ServiceUtils.registerServices(queryEnvironment, services);
M2DocUtils.getConfigurators().forEach((configurator) -> {
ServiceUtils.registerServices(queryEnvironment, configurator.getServices(queryEnvironment, options));
});
}
public static void generateDocument(DocumentTemplate template, IQueryEnvironment queryEnvironment,
String templateName, String modelPath)throws Exception{
final Map<String, Object> variable = new HashMap<>();
variable.put("self", URI.createFileURI(modelPath));
final Monitor monitor = new BasicMonitor.Printing(System.out);
final URI outputURI = URI.createFileURI("Generated/"+templateName+".generated."+M2DocUtils.DOCX_EXTENSION_FILE);
M2DocUtils.generate(template, queryEnvironment, variable, outputURI, monitor);
}

The variable "self" contains an URI:
variable.put("self", URI.createFileURI(modelPath));
You have to load your model and set the value of self to an element from your model using something like:
final ResourceSet rs = new ResourceSetImpl();
final Resource r = rs.getResource(uri, true);
final EObject value = r.getContents()...;
variable.put("self", value);
You can get more details on resource loading in the EMF documentation.

How to pass data from vaadin webapp to C# GUI app

I have webapp in Vaadin Framework 8. I have Windows GUI app in C#.
The gui app is using WebBrowser component to display webapp. WebBrowser component is internally using IE11 core through ActiveX. I can successfully load and display the webapp in the gui app browser component.
I need to pass data from webapp to the gui app.
The webapp has many rows loaded on server side, only few are displayed in grid. I want to pass all data from webapp to gui app in some format (csv or json).
I have tryed some approaches, but I wasn't successfull.
[Approach 1]
Webapp: attach downloadable resource (csv) to Link with predefined id using FileDownloader. Download by user mouse click works fine, file save dialog pops up and data are downloaded successfully.
Link link = new Link("Data");
link.setId("myId");
StreamResource resource = getMyResource(data);
FileDownloader downloader = new FileDownloader(resource);
downloader.extend(link);
Page.getCurrent().getJavaScript().addFunction("test", new JavaScriptFunction() {
#Override
public void call(JsonArray arguments) {
Page.getCurrent().getJavaScript()
.execute("document.getElementById('myId').click()");
}
});
Gui app: raise onClick event on link and capture WebBrowser.FileDownload event, capture WebBrowser.Navigate event.
I have failed to raise onClick event from C# using:
HtmlElement el = webBrowser.Document.GetElementById("myId");
el.RaiseEvent("onClick");
el.InvokeMember("click");
webBrowser.Document.InvokeScript("document.getElementById('myId').click();", null);
webBrowser.Document.InvokeScript("test", null);
Result:
WebBrowser.FileDownload event doesn't work (is fired but can't capture url nor data), capture WebBrowser.Navigate event works partialy (can see resource url, but can't download data using byte[] b = new WebClient().DownloadData(e.Url);).
[Approach 2]
Similar to approach 1. I tryed to get resource url, put the direct url to Link and download the resource in c# using direct link. I can construct the same resource url as is used by browser to download data when user clicks the link.
Extended file downloader that keeps resource, key and connector:
public class ExtendedFileDownloader extends FileDownloader {
private String myKey;
private Resource myResource;
private ClientConnector myConnector;
public ExtendedFileDownloader(StreamResource resource, ClientConnector connector) {
super(resource);
myConnector = connector;
}
#Override
protected void setResource(String key, Resource resource) {
super.setResource(key, resource);
myKey = key;
myResource = resource;
}
public String getResourceUrl() {
ResourceReference ref =
ResourceReference.create(
myResource,
(myConnector != null) ? myConnector : this,
myKey);
String url = ref.getURL();
return url;
}
}
In view:
// fix app://path... urls to /<base-path>/path urls
private String fixResourceReferenceUrl(String resourceReferenceUrl) {
String resourceReferencePath = resourceReferenceUrl.replace("app://", "");
String uiBaseUrl = ui.getUiRootPath();
String fixedUrl = uiBaseUrl + "/" + resourceReferencePath;
return fixedUrl;
}
Link link2 = new Link("Data2");
link2.setId("myId2");
StreamResource resource = getMyResource(data);
ExtendedFileDownloader downloader = new ExtendedFileDownloader(resource, this);
String fixedResourceUrl = fixResourceReferenceUrl(downloader.getResourceUrl());
link2.setResource(new ExternalResource(fixedResourceUrl));
Result:
The data cannot be downloaded using this link, server error 410 or NotFound errors.
Any Ideas ? Any other approaches to try ?

I have finally solved the problem. The solution is very close to approach 2.
The resource url is passed in element with custom attribute. C# WebClient needs to set cookies from WebBrowser and Referer HTTP headers. The data can be successfully downloaded by C# app.
Element attribute in vaadin webapp can be set using Vaadin-addon Attributes.
Cookies in C# app can be retrieved using this solution.
// Fix resource urls begining with app://
public String fixResourceReferenceUrl(String resourceReferenceUrl) {
try {
String uiRootPath = UI.getCurrent().getUiRootPath();
URI location = Page.getCurrent().getLocation();
String appLocation = new URIBuilder()
.setScheme(location.getScheme())
.setHost(location.getHost())
.setPort(location.getPort())
.setPath(uiRootPath)
.build()
.toString();
String resourceReferencePath = resourceReferenceUrl.replace("app://", "");
String fixedUrl = appLocation + "/" + resourceReferencePath;
return fixedUrl;
}
catch (Exception e) {
return null;
}
}
In view (using ExtendedFileDownloader from above):
Link link = new Link("Data");
link.setId("myId");
StreamResource resource = getMyResource(data);
ExtendedFileDownloader downloader = new ExtendedFileDownloader(resource);
downloader.extend(link);
Attribute attr = new Attribute("x-my-data", fixResourceReferenceUrl(downloader.getResourceUrl()));
attr.extend(link);
link.setVisible(true);
In C# app:
[DllImport("wininet.dll", SetLastError = true)]
public static extern bool InternetGetCookieEx(
string url,
string cookieName,
StringBuilder cookieData,
ref int size,
Int32 dwFlags,
IntPtr lpReserved);
private const Int32 InternetCookieHttponly = 0x2000;
public static String GetUriCookies(String uri)
{
// Determine the size of the cookie
int datasize = 8192 * 16;
StringBuilder cookieData = new StringBuilder(datasize);
if (!InternetGetCookieEx(uri, null, cookieData, ref datasize, InternetCookieHttponly, IntPtr.Zero))
{
if (datasize < 0)
return null;
// Allocate stringbuilder large enough to hold the cookie
cookieData = new StringBuilder(datasize);
if (!InternetGetCookieEx(

}
return cookieData.ToString();
}
private void button_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

String url = el.GetAttribute("x-my-data");
String cookies = GetUriCookies(url);
WebClient wc = new WebClient();
wc.Headers.Add("Cookie", cookies);
wc.Headers.Add("Referer", WEB_APP_URL); // url of webapp base path, http://myhost/MyUI
byte[] data = wc.DownloadData(url);

spring boot 2 properties configuration

I have some code that works properly on spring boot prior to 2 and I find it hard to convert it to work with spring boot 2.
Can somebody assist?
public static MutablePropertySources buildPropertySources(String propertyFile, String profile)
{
try
{
Properties properties = new Properties();
YamlPropertySourceLoader loader = new YamlPropertySourceLoader();
// load common properties
PropertySource<?> applicationYamlPropertySource = loader.load("properties", new ClassPathResource(propertyFile), null);
Map<String, Object> source = ((MapPropertySource) applicationYamlPropertySource).getSource();
properties.putAll(source);
// load profile properties
if (null != profile)
{
applicationYamlPropertySource = loader.load("properties", new ClassPathResource(propertyFile), profile);
if (null != applicationYamlPropertySource)
{
source = ((MapPropertySource) applicationYamlPropertySource).getSource();
properties.putAll(source);
}
}
propertySources = new MutablePropertySources();
propertySources.addLast(new PropertiesPropertySource("apis", properties));
}
catch (Exception e)
{
log.error("{} file cannot be found.", propertyFile);
return null;
}
}
public static <T> void handleConfigurationProperties(T bean, MutablePropertySources propertySources) throws BindException
{
ConfigurationProperties configurationProperties = bean.getClass().getAnnotation(ConfigurationProperties.class);
if (null != configurationProperties && null != propertySources)
{
String prefix = configurationProperties.prefix();
String value = configurationProperties.value();
if (null == value || value.isEmpty())
{
value = prefix;
}
PropertiesConfigurationFactory<?> configurationFactory = new PropertiesConfigurationFactory<>(bean);
configurationFactory.setPropertySources(propertySources);
configurationFactory.setTargetName(value);
configurationFactory.bindPropertiesToTarget();
}
}
PropertiesConfigurationFactory doesnt exist anymore and the YamlPropertySourceLoader load method no longer accepts 3 parameters.
(the response is not the same either, when I have tried invoking the new method the response objects were wrapped instead of giving me the direct strings/integers etc...)

The PropertiesConfigurationFactory should be replaced with Binder class.
Binder class
Sample code:-
ConfigurationPropertySource source = new MapConfigurationPropertySource(
loadProperties(resource));
Binder binder = new Binder(source);
return binder.bind("initializr", InitializrProperties.class).get();
We were also using PropertiesConfigurationFactory to bind a POJO to a
prefix of the Environment. In 2.0, a brand new Binder API was
introduced that is more flexible and easier to use. Our binding that
took 10 lines of code could be reduced to 3 simple lines.
YamlPropertySourceLoader:-
Yes, this class has been changed in version 2. It doesn't accept the third parameter profile anymore. The method signature has been changed to return List<PropertySource<?>> rather than PropertySource<?>. If you are expecting single source, please get the first occurrence from the list.
Load the resource into one or more property sources. Implementations
may either return a list containing a single source, or in the case of
a multi-document format such as yaml a source for each document in the
resource.

Since there is no accepted answer yet, i post my full solution, which builds upon the answer from #nationquest:
private ConfigClass loadConfiguration(String path){
MutablePropertySources sources = new MutablePropertySources();
Resource res = new FileSystemResource(path);
PropertiesFactoryBean propFactory = new PropertiesFactoryBean();
propFactory.setLocation(res);
propFactory.setSingleton(false);
// resolve potential references to local environment variables
Properties properties = null;
try {
properties = propFactory.getObject();
for(String p : properties.stringPropertyNames()){
properties.setProperty(p, env.resolvePlaceholders(properties.getProperty(p)));
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
sources.addLast(new PropertiesPropertySource("prefix", properties));
ConfigurationPropertySource propertySource = new MapConfigurationPropertySource(properties);
return new Binder(propertySource).bind("prefix", ConfigClass.class).get();
}
The last three lines are the relevant part here.

dirty code but this is how i solved it

Java Use URI builder?

I have bellow url :
http://www.example.com/api/Video/GetListMusicRelated/0/0/null/105358/0/0/10/null/null
This section is Fixed and unchangeable:
http://www.example.com/api/Video/GetListMusicRelated/
I set parameter to this url like bellow :
http://www.example.com/api/Video/GetListMusicRelated/25/60/jim/105358/20/1/5/null/null
OR :
http://www.example.com/api/Video/GetListMusicRelated/0/0/null/105358,5875,85547/0/0/10/null/null
How I can write for this url a url builder ?

If you want to create an UrlBuilder using the builder pattern, it could be done like this:
public class UrlBuilder {
private final String root;
private int myParam1;
private String myParam2;
public UrlBuilder(final String root) {
this.root = root;
}
public UrlBuilder myParam1(int myParam1) {
this.myParam1 = myParam1;
return this;
}
public UrlBuilder myParam2(String myParam2) {
this.myParam2 = myParam2;
return this;
}
public URL build() throws MalformedURLException {
return new URL(
String.format("%s/%d/%s", root, myParam1, myParam2)
);
}
}
Then you will be able to create your URL as next
URL url = new UrlBuilder("http://www.example.com/api/Video/GetListMusicRelated")
.myParam1(25)
.myParam2("jim")
.build();
NB: This only shows the idea, so I used fake parameter's name and incorrect number of parameters, please note that you are supposed to have 6 parameters and set the proper names.

try this...
URL domain = new URL("http://example.com");
URL url = new URL(domain + "/abcd/abcd");

Is it possible to get the absolute request url without path parameters

I am trying to get the request url without values of path parameters into it.
Consider my complete url is
URl: http://localhost:8080/aaa/mock/abcd/1234/true
Path parameters: abcd, true
Output needed: /aaa/mock/abcd
My web service method looks like this.
#Path(value = "/aaa/mock")
#Component
public class MockService
{
private static Log log = LogFactory.getLog(MockService.class);
//address
#GET
#Path(value = "/{mockrequest}/{status}")
#Produces(MediaType.JSON)
public String mockEngagement(#Context ContainerRequestContext request,#PathParam("mockrequest") String mockrequest,#PathParam("status") String status )
{
log.info("The mock url is"+request.getUriInfo().getRequestUri());
log.info("The mock url is"+request.getUriInfo().getAbsolutePath());
log.info("The mock url is"+request.getUriInfo().getBaseUri());
log.info("The mock url is"+request.getUriInfo().getMatchedURIs());
**//Out put needed /aaa/mock/abcd**
return "ajaja";
}
}
None of the above calls return the required info.
I am thinking if there is a generic process to get the desired output irrespective of number of path parameters.
Any such methods.

Try UriInfo#getPath(), UriInfo#getPath(boolean), or UriInfo#getPathSegments(). The boolean argument is whether the path should be encoded or not.
https://jersey.java.net/apidocs/2.3.1/jersey/index.html
You could also get the absolute path and the base path and then use URI#relativize(URI).

Try this:
request.getUriInfo().getPathSegments().get(0).getPath()

public void filter(ContainerRequestContext context) throws IOException {
Message message = PhaseInterceptorChain.getCurrentMessage();
Set<Map.Entry<String, Object>> o = (Set<Map.Entry<String, Object>>)message.entrySet();
for (Map.Entry<String, Object> oo : o) {
String key = oo.getKey();
Object val = oo.getValue();
// Thises two properties gives the path of web service
//path_to_match_slash
//org.apache.cxf.request.uri
if(key.equals("path_to_match_slash"))
{ String v = (String)val;
System.out.println (key);
System.out.println (v);
}
if(key.equals("org.apache.cxf.request.uri"))
{ String v = (String)val;
System.out.println (key);
System.out.println (v);
}
}
}
this code could work only for apache cxf rest
we can found path_to_match_slash , org.apache.cxf.request.uri properties in the ContainerRequestContext
