Class LocalInstallationAgent

java.lang.Object
org.apache.uima.pear.tools.LocalInstallationAgent

public class LocalInstallationAgent extends Object
The LocalInstallationAgent allows localizing files of UIMA compliant components within the single PEAR structure, and verifying localized component's files using UIMA framework API.
This class may be used in the following ways:
  • As a standalone Java application -
    java -Xmx512M -DUIMA_HOME=%UIMA_HOME% org.apache.uima.pear.tools.LocalInstallationAgent main_component_root_directory
    where the main_component_root_directory is the path to the root directory of the main component (root directory of the single PEAR structure);
  • As a Java object -
    in this case the caller is expected to set the UIMA_HOME variable, using the setUimaHomePath() method, immediately after creating a new instance of the LocalInstallationAgent class.
    Note: Some TAEs require large heap size, so the '-Xmx[heapSize]' JVM option may be needed.
    Localization of component files is performed by using the localizeComponent() method.
    Verification of localized files is performed by using the verifyLocalizedComponent() method.
    The applications prints all messages to the standard output and error messages to the standard error output.
In both modes the application uses the metadata/PEAR.properties file for the component localization information.
Note: during the localization phase the application creates backup copies of all files in both the conf and desc directories, adding the extension ".$" to each backup file. If the application fails, please make sure all original files in both the directories are restored from appropriate "*.$" backup copies.

    • checkPackageConfig

      public static boolean checkPackageConfig(Properties packageConfig, InstallationDescriptor insdObject)
      Checks that a specified PEAR configuration corresponds to a given installation descriptor.
      Parameters:
      packageConfig - The specified PEAR configuration (Properties object).
      insdObject - The given installation descriptor object.
      Returns:
      true if the specified PEAR configuration corresponds to the given installation descriptor, false otherwise.

      Performs localization of a given component file using information from a given installation descriptor and a specified PEAR configuration.
      Parameters:
      file - The given component file to be localized.
      insdObject - The given installation descriptor object.
      packageConfig - The specified PEAR configuration.
      Throws:
      IOException - if any I/O exception occurred.
    • localizeInstallationDescriptor

      public static void localizeInstallationDescriptor(InstallationDescriptor insdObject, Properties packageConfig)
      Performs localization of a given installation descriptor object using information from a specified PEAR configuration.
      Parameters:
      insdObject - installation descriptor object
      packageConfig - pear configuration properties
    • main

      public static void main(String[] args)
      Starts the application. This application expects the following JVM run-time settings:
      • -DUIMA_HOME=<local_uima_root_dir>
      Parameters:
      args - main_component_root_dir
    • localizeComponent

      public boolean localizeComponent() throws IOException
      Performs localization of the component files in the 'conf' and 'desc' subdirectories of the specified main root directory, as well as localization of the installation descriptor.
      Returns:
      true if the localization process completed successfully, false otherwise.
      Throws:
      IOException - if any I/O exception occurred.
    • localizeComponentFiles

      protected File[] localizeComponentFiles() throws IOException
      Performs localization of the component files in the 'conf' and 'desc' directories by replacing $main_root and $component_id$root macros with the actual path values from the PEAR configuration file. Back-up copies of original files are stored with '.$' extension.
      Returns:
      The array of localized files.
      Throws:
      IOException - if any I/O exception occurred.
    • undoComponentLocalization

      public boolean undoComponentLocalization() throws IOException
      Restores original files in the 'conf' and 'desc' directories from the back-up copies (with extension '.$').
      Returns:
      true if the operation completed successfully, false otherwise.
      Throws:
      IOException - if any I/O exception occurred.
    • verifyLocalizedComponent

      public boolean verifyLocalizedComponent() throws IOException, ResourceInitializationException, UIMAException
      Performs verification of the localized component by running the InstallationTester application.
      Returns:
      true if the verification completed successfully, false otherwise.
      Throws:
      IOException - if any I/O exception occurred.
      ResourceInitializationException - if the specified component cannot be instantiated.
      UIMAException - if this exception occurred while identifying UIMA component category.
