Force downloading a file in JSF portlet
Hi,
I am building JSF based portlet for downloading a file using MyFaces JSF
bridge.
I do the following to make the file force download:
1) Set "content-disposition" header to contain the correct filename
2) Set "content-type" header to "application/octet-stream" or something
more accurate if the information is present in attachment metadata
3) Dump the content using a ServletOutputStream
When I click on the link to download the file, instead of throwing a
dialog box for saving/opening the file, browser dumps the the binary
contents on page. However, this works fine as standalone application.
Is there something extra I need to do to force download file in
Jetspeed? Am I missing something here?
Regards,
Raj

I don't think you may do request forwarding from a portlet application
(but you can do redirects and includes).
So, instead of creating the download link via a "command link" that
maps to an action listener that will handle the download, you use a
link that points to a servlet that will take the place of the action
listener for the download. I know, it's not pretty, but it will work
and it's portable.
As Vlad has explained, you can simply output a link in your portlet's
rendered markup that is the URI to a servlet that is also a part of
your servlet/portlet web app.
So, to mimic Vlad's example, you put something like this in your
web.xml (where com.mycompany.servlet.MyDownloadServlet is the servlet
that will write the content to the output stream):
<web-app>
...
<servlet>
<servlet-name>documents</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>com.mycompany.servlet.MyDownloadServlet</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
...
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>documents</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/documents/download.do</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
...
</web-app>
Then, if you output a link to /<web app
context>/documents/download.do, when a user clicks it, then the
content will be served by that servlet and you can then alter the
response headers and write binary content to the output stream from
within the servlet code.
The way you generate the actual link is irrelevant, you can use a JSF
tag (which I am not too familiar with), or you can simply write the
string directly (ie <%= myURIString %>).

Hi Aaron,
Can you tell me in little more details, how to give link to a servlet
in JSF? Currently I am using CommandLink component and I dont see a
way of giving direct link to servlet.

Raj,
A portlet cannot alter those response headers the way a servlet can.
I believe your options are to either use the file server component of
the pipeline (which to be honest I don't know much about) or you could
simply make the link a link to a servlet within your application,
thereby by-passing jetspeed.

I don't use a CommandLink
I use a outputLink :
<h:outputLink
value="#{facesContext.externalContext.requestContextPath}/documents/#{dataRow['name4url']}/?doc_id=#{dataRow['docId']}"
target="_blank" >
<h:outputText value="It's link"/>
</h:outputLink>
How can you see, I use "*/documents/*" key in href....
This url-part a listing a my Doc_view servlet.

Posted by Ge <ge...@gmail.com>.
Hi,
I've 2 alternately suggestion:
1. Write the code in a jsp file instead of the servlet.
2. in the faces-config.xml file, config the action to an jsp file,
write code forward the request to your servlet in the jsp file.
Hope be helpful.

Vladimir,
Thanks for you help till now. I feel I am still missing something. I
am not able to forward the control from my JSF page to servlet. My
servlet is configured fine and it is working standalone.
I searched the web for help on how to forward request to a servlet
from JSF page and based on it I call an action method in my JSF page
and action method returns a String.
<code>
public String download() {
System.out.println("Inside download method");
return "/knowledge-base/download";
}
</code>
However, request is never forwarded to servlet. Can you throw some
light? Can you tell me how do you forward request from JSF page to
servlet? What do you specify in the action attribute of your
CommandLink component?
Thanks,
Raj

Re: Force downloading a file in JSF portlet

Vladimir,
Thanks for you help till now. I feel I am still missing something. I
am not able to forward the control from my JSF page to servlet. My
servlet is configured fine and it is working standalone.
I searched the web for help on how to forward request to a servlet
from JSF page and based on it I call an action method in my JSF page
and action method returns a String.
<code>
public String download() {
System.out.println("Inside download method");
return "/knowledge-base/download";
}
</code>
However, request is never forwarded to servlet. Can you throw some
light? Can you tell me how do you forward request from JSF page to
servlet? What do you specify in the action attribute of your
CommandLink component?
Thanks,
Raj

It's simple - need add to web.xml next elements:
<web-app>
...
<servlet>
<servlet-name>documents</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>asoft.web.Doc_view</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
...
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>documents</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/documents/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
...

Re: Force downloading a file in JSF portlet
Posted by Raj Saini <ra...@gmail.com>.
Hi Vladimir,
My code is inside a ActionListener of CommandLink component of JSF and
that may be the reason it is not working. I am not able to figure out
how to forward control to servlet from ActionListener. Can you please
tell me how do you forward control to servlet from your JSF page?
Regards,
Raj

Hi Raj,
I look your code. I think, it does not work because you use not pure
сервлет for loading. I do not see heading of your class - similar that
it Faces PageBean?
I use a combination JSF pages + simple pure Servlet, listening part URL
for download:
public class Doc_view extends HttpServlet {
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse
response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
String uri = request.getPathInfo();
int pdoc_id=Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("doc_id"));
try {
response.setContentType("application/x-download");
response.setHeader("content-disposition", "attachment;
name=\""+downloadFileName+"\"; filename=\""+downloadFileName+"\"");
byte[] data = .... ;
response.setContentLength(data.length);
response.getOutputStream().write(data);
} catch (Exception e) {... }
}

Re: Force downloading a file in JSF portlet
Posted by Raj Saini <ra...@gmail.com>.
Hi Vladmir,
I tried your suggestion. It did not work for me. I am using apche my
faces JSF bridge. Does it work for you form a JSF based porlet?
Below the the code snipt of processAction method of command link
action listener. Can you see if I am missing something?
============================
FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
String path =
facesContext.getExternalContext().getInitParameter("uploadDirectoryLocation");
Map map = facesContext.getExternalContext().getRequestParameterMap();
String fileName = (String) map.get("fileName");
System.out.println("File URI: " + path+fileName);
File file = new File(path + fileName);
long fileSize =file.length();
//Set the HTTP headers for foce download the file
HttpServletResponse response =
(HttpServletResponse)FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getResponse();
response.setContentType("application/x-download");
response.setHeader("content-disposition",
"attachment;name=\""+fileName+"\";filename=\""+fileName+"\"");
response.setContentLength((int)fileSize);
==========================================================

Raj

Re: JSF portlet - how to getting the Jetspeed functions?
Posted by Vladimir Figurov <VF...@asia-soft.kz>.
Addons:
I am using a Jestspeed 1.6 with fusion.
I am a try building JSF based portlet for master-detail tables.
Necessary, that after click on the button (or link) the new window with
details opened. Without any portal's elements - as Print mode.
If I use a next method:
<h:commandLink id="clnkShowReport"
target="_blank"
action="reportbody"
value="Show report"/>
then I getted a new window, but with full portal's elements (Logo, menu,
...)
If I use another method:
<h:outputLink id="olnkShowReport"
target="_blank"
value="#{facesContext.externalContext.requestContextPath}/eqreport_body.jsf">
<f:verbatim>Show report</f:verbatim>
</h:outputLink>
then I getting a Error:
javax.faces.FacesException: Unsupported context type
org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationContextFacade
org.apache.portals.bridges.jsf.FacesContextFactoryImpl.getFacesContext(FacesContextFactoryImpl.java:58)
javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet.service(FacesServlet.java:100)
In JSP-portlets there is a full access to all set of Jetspeed's functions.
But JSF-Portlets - is BLACK BOX. %(
I cannot find access to jetspeed functions - all is limited a Pluto
"sandbox" and Portlet-JSR 168 API.
And this API do not allow to operate modes of construction of the target
(out) screen from templates, change templates, ets.
Any body know there I can find a docs, manual for work with JSF-Portlets
& Jetspeed?

Hi,
try this code:
response.setContentType("binary/download");
response.setHeader("Content-disposition","attachment; filename=xxx.xxx");
before dump the content.

Subject: Force downloading a file in JSF portlet
Hi,
I am building JSF based portlet for downloading a file using MyFaces JSF
bridge.
I do the following to make the file force download:
1) Set "content-disposition" header to contain the correct filename
2) Set "content-type" header to "application/octet-stream" or something more
accurate if the information is present in attachment metadata
3) Dump the content using a ServletOutputStream
When I click on the link to download the file, instead of throwing a dialog
box for saving/opening the file, browser dumps the the binary contents on
page. However, this works fine as standalone application.
Is there something extra I need to do to force download file in Jetspeed? Am
I missing something here?
Regards,
Raj
