Details
User App Info tutorial is for install, uninstall, start, stop, auto start and get current user app status.
Setting it up
The following are the steps to get the user app info details.
- Create Reader Management Object
- Create a LoginInfo object and Login to the Reader.
- Perform User App api operations.
Creating a ReaderManagement object.
// create and initialize the Reader Management object.
ReaderManagement readerManagement = new ReaderManagement();
Creating a LoginInfo object and perform login operation.
//Creating a LoginInfo object and perform login operation.
LoginInfo loginInfo = new LoginInfo("hostName", "userName", "password", SECURE_MODE.HTTP, false);
try {
readerManagement.login(loginInfo,READER_TYPE.FX);
} catch (InvalidUsageException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (OperationFailureException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Performing operation
Install User App.
// Install User App.
String currentDir = new StringBuilder().append(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsoluteFile() + File.separator ).toString();
try {
readerManagement.UserApp.install(currentDir);
} catch (OperationFailureException | InvalidUsageException e) {
}
Uninstall User App.
// Uninstall User App.
String currentDir = new StringBuilder().append(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsoluteFile() + File.separator ).toString();
try {
readerManagement.UserApp.uninstall(currentDir);
} catch (OperationFailureException | InvalidUsageException e) {
}
Start User App.
// Start User App.
String currentDir = new StringBuilder().append(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsoluteFile() + File.separator ).toString();
try {
readerManagement.UserApp.start(currentDir);
} catch (OperationFailureException | InvalidUsageException e) {
}
Stop User App.
// Stop User App.
String currentDir = new StringBuilder().append(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsoluteFile() + File.separator ).toString();
try {
readerManagement.UserApp.stop(currentDir);
} catch (OperationFailureException | InvalidUsageException e) {
}
Get Run Status.
// Get Run Status.
String currentDir = new StringBuilder().append(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsoluteFile() + File.separator ).toString();
try {
readerManagement.UserApp.getRunStatus(currentDir);
} catch (OperationFailureException | InvalidUsageException e) {
} Auto Start.
// Auto Start.
String currentDir = new StringBuilder().append(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsoluteFile() + File.separator ).toString();
try {
readerManagement.UserApp.autoStart(currentDir,true);
} catch (OperationFailureException | InvalidUsageException e) {
}
Closer look
- hostName i.e. IP of the reader.
- userName i.e. user name of the reader.
