Java-based examples for the Europass REST API

System requirements:

• JDK 7/JRE 7 or newer (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html)
• Apache Maven Project (http://maven.apache.org/download.cgi#Installation)

Installation:

1. Run mvn install in project root dir. After that under /target would be created the .jar files. e.g. -rest-examples-java-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar -rest-examples-java-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar (runnable)

2. Run java -jar target/rest-examples-java-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar with required arguments (check following examples)

Arguments:

Arguments we can pass to java application are (through -Dkey command line key options):

• type (required): The REST action to use

json-to-pdf-cv-only	JSON to PDF CV	/v1/document/to/pdf-cv
json-to-doc	JSON to Word	/v1/document/to/word
json-to-odt	JSON to ODT	/v1/document/to/opendoc

• inputPathFile (required): Full path of input file (xml, json, pdf) to use.
• outputPathFile (required): Full path of output file (xml, json, pdf, odt etc.) that would store your data in this format
• baseRestUrl (optional): Explicitly initialize the restfull service base url (default: https://europass.cedefop.europa.eu/rest).
• language (optional): Two-letter code of locale for convertion of input file (default: en).

Examples:

• java -Dtype=xml-to-pdf-cv-esp -DinputPathFile=C:\europass-cv-esp-example-v3.3.0.xml -DoutputPathFile=C:\test1.pdf -jar rest-examples-java-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

  When running the above example, you get your CV+ESP in pdf format (C:\test1.pdf).

• java -Dtype=xml-to-pdf-esp-only -DinputPathFile=C:\europass-esp-example-v3.3.0.xml -DoutputPathFile=C:\test2.pdf -jar rest-examples-java-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

  Previous call is generating ESP in pdf format (C:\test2.pdf).

• java -Dtype=xml-to-pdf-cv-only -DinputPathFile=C:\europass-cv-example-v3.3.0.xml -DoutputPathFile=C:\test3.pdf -jar rest-examples-java-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

  When running the above example, you get your CV in pdf format (C:\test3.pdf).

• java -Dtype=xml-to-doc -DinputPathFile=C:\europass-cv-example-v3.3.0.xml -DoutputPathFile=C:\test4.doc -DbaseRestUrl=https://europassd.cedefop.europa.eu/rest -jar rest-examples-java-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

  The generated document is saved in C:\test4.doc (using custom restfull service base url).

• java -Dtype=json-to-odt -DinputPathFile=C:\europass-cv-example-v3.3.0.json -DoutputPathFile=C:\test5.odt -Dlanguage=fr -jar rest-examples-java-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

  The generated document is saved in C:\test5.odt (using json as input file and locale for conversion fr).

• java -Dtype=json-to-word -DinputPathFile=C:\europass-cv-example-v3.3.0.json -DoutputPathFile=C:\test6.doc -Dlanguage=fr -jar rest-examples-java-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

  The generated document is saved in C:\test6.doc (using json as input file and locale for conversion fr).

• java -Dtype=xml-to-json -DinputPathFile=C:\europass-cv-example-v3.3.0.xml -DoutputPathFile=C:\test7.json -jar rest-examples-java-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

  Previous example is generating a json from xml and saves in C:\test7.json.

• java -Dtype=json-to-xml -DinputPathFile=C:\europass-cv-example-v3.3.0.json -DoutputPathFile=C:\test8.xml -jar rest-examples-java-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

  Previous example is generating a xml from json and saves in C:\test8.xml.

• java -Dtype=xml-version-upgrade -DinputPathFile=C:\oldVersionFile.xml -DoutputPathFile=C:\newVersionFile.xml -jar rest-examples-java-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

  Converts a Europass CV (or LP) in XML format v2.0 or older to a Europass CV in XML format v3.0 or later.

• java -Dtype=extract-xml-attachment -DinputPathFile=C:\CV-Europass-2017-John-Smith.pdf -DoutputPathFile=C:\CVJohnSmith.xml -jar rest-examples-java-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

  Extracts the XML attachment from a Europass PDF+XML (v3.0 or older).
