Examples
========

Init the library
----------------

Start using the library; it is needed to init the object mClient that will be
in charge of keeping the communication with the server.

Code example
~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. code-block:: java

  public class MainActivity extends Activity
                            implements  OnRemoteOperationListener,
                                        OnDatatransferProgressListener {
  private OwnCloudClient mClient;
  private Handler mHandler = new Handler();

  ...

  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

  ...

  // Parse URI to the base URL of the ownCloud server
  Uri serverUri = Uri.parse(getString(R.string.server_base_url));

  // Create client object to perform remote operations
  mClient = OwnCloudClientFactory.createOwnCloudClient(
              serverUri,
              this,
              // Activity or Service context
              true);


Set credentials
---------------

Authentication on the app is possible by 3 different methods:

* Basic authentication, user name and password
* Bearer access token (oAuth2)
* Cookie (SAML-based single-sign-on)

Code example
~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. code-block:: java

  package com.owncloud.android.lib.common;

  public class OwnCloudClient extends HttpClient {
    ...
    // Set basic credentials
    client.setCredentials(
        OwnCloudCredentialsFactory.newBasicCredentials(username, password)
    );
    // Set bearer access token
    client.setCredentials(
        OwnCloudCredentialsFactory.newBearerCredentials(accessToken)
    );
    // Set SAML2 session token
    client.setCredentials(
        OwnCloudCredentialsFactory.newSamlSsoCredentials(cookie)
    );
  }

  private void startFolderCreation(String newFolderPath) {
    CreateRemoteFolderOperation createOperation = new CreateRemoteFolderOperation(newFolderPath, false); 
    createOperation.execute( mClient , this , mHandler); 
  }

  @Override
  public void onRemoteOperationFinish(RemoteOperation operation, RemoteOperationResult result) {

      // do your stuff here
	  }
    }
  }

Read shared items by link
-------------------------

Get information about what files and folder are shared by link (the object
mClient contains the information about the server url and account)

Code example
~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. code-block:: java

  private void startAllSharesRetrieval() {
    GetRemoteSharesOperation getSharesOp = new GetRemoteSharesOperation();
    getSharesOp.execute( mClient , this , mHandler); 
  }

  @Override
  public void onRemoteOperationFinish( RemoteOperation operation, RemoteOperationResult result) {
    if (operation instanceof GetRemoteSharesOperation) {
      if (result.isSuccess()) { 
        ArrayList< OCShare > shares = new ArrayList< OCShare >(); 
        for (Object obj: result.getData()) {
          shares.add(( OCShare) obj);
        }
        // do your stuff here
      }
    }
  }

Get the share resources for a given file or folder
--------------------------------------------------


Get information about what files and folder are shared by link on a certain
folder. The info needed is filePath, path of the file/folder on the server, the
Boolean variable, getReshares, come from the Sharing api, from the moment it is
not in use within the ownCloud Android library.

Code example
~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. code-block:: java

  private void startSharesRetrievalForFileOrFolder(String filePath, boolean getReshares) {
    GeteRemoteSharesForFileOperation operation = new GetRemoteSharesForFileOperation(filePath, getReshares, false);
    operation.execute( mClient, this, mHandler); 
  }

  private void startSharesRetrievalForFilesInFolder(String folderPath, boolean getReshares) {
    GetRemoteSharesForFileOperation operation = new GetRemoteSharesForFileOperation(folderPath, getReshares, true);
    operation.execute( mClient, this, mHandler);

  @Override
  public void onRemoteOperationFinish( RemoteOperation operation, RemoteOperationResult result) {
    if (operation instanceof GetRemoteSharesForFileOperation) {
      if (result.isSuccess()) {
        ArrayList< OCShare > shares = new ArrayList< OCShare >(); 
        for (Object obj: result.getData()) {
          shares.add(( OCShare) obj); 
        }
        // do your stuff here
     }
  }
  }


Share link of file or folder
-----------------------------


Share a file or a folder from your cloud server by link.

The info needed is filePath, the path of the item that you want to share and
Password, this comes from the Sharing api, from the moment it is not in use
within the ownCloud Android library.


Code example
~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. code-block:: java

  private void startCreationOfPublicShareForFile(String filePath, String password) {
    CreateRemoteShareOperation operation = new CreateRemoteShareOperation(filePath, ShareType.PUBLIC_LINK, "", false, password, 1);
    operation.execute( mClient , this , mHandler);
  }

  private void startCreationOfGroupShareForFile(String filePath, String groupId) {
    CreateRemoteShareOperation operation = new CreateRemoteShareOperation(filePath, ShareType.GROUP, groupId, false , "", 31); 
    operation.execute(mClient, this, mHandler); 
  }

  private void startCreationOfUserShareForFile(String filePath, String userId) {
    CreateRemoteShareOperation operation = new CreateRemoteShareOperation(filePath, ShareType.USER, userId, false, "", 31);
    operation.execute(mClient, this, mHandler);
  }

  @Override
  public void onRemoteOperationFinish( RemoteOperation operation, RemoteOperationResult result) {
    if (operation instanceof CreateRemoteShareOperation) {
      if (result.isSuccess()) { 
        OCShare share = (OCShare) result.getData ().get(0);
        // do your stuff here
      }
    }
  }


Delete a share resource
-----------------------

Stop sharing by link a file or a folder from your cloud server.

The info needed is the object OCShare that you want to stop sharing by link.

Code example
~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. code-block:: java

  private void startShareRemoval(OCShare share) {
    RemoveRemoteShareOperation operation = new RemoveRemoteShareOperation((int) share.getIdRemoteShared());
    operation.execute( mClient, this, mHandler);
  }

  @Override
  public void onRemoteOperationFinish( RemoteOperation operation, RemoteOperationResult result) {
    if (operation instanceof RemoveRemoteShareOperation) {
      if (result.isSuccess()) {
      // do your stuff here
      }
    }
  }


Tips
----

* Credentials must be set before calling any method
* Paths must not be on URL Encoding
* Correct path: ``http://www.myowncloudserver.com/owncloud/remote.php/webdav/PopMusic``
* Wrong path: ``http://www.myowncloudserver.com/owncloud/remote.php/webdav/Pop%20Music/``
* There are some forbidden characters to be used in folder and files names on the server, same on the ownCloud Android Library "\","/","<",">",":",""","|","?","*"
* Upload and download actions may be cancelled thanks to the objects uploadOperation.cancel(), downloadOperation.cancel()
* Unit tests, before launching unit tests you have to enter your account information (server url, user and password) on TestActivity.java
