Java 8 Stream Filter with Example


In this article we will learn how to use Java 8 Stream Filter with Example,  I have used String list to filter the names. Stream, A sequence of elements supporting sequential and parallel aggregate operations. Below example will show you how to filter the list with predicate.


StringFilterUsingStream.java 



package com.javadevelopersguide.tutorial;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.stream.Collectors;
/**
 * @author manoj.bardhan
 *
 */
public class StringFilterUsingStream {
public static void main(String[] str) {
List<String> nameList = new ArrayList<String>();
nameList.add("Roshna");
nameList.add("Amit Kumar");
nameList.add("Manoj");
nameList.add("Neha");
nameList.add("Rina");
nameList.add("Ashna");
nameList.add("Peter");
nameList.add("Deb Kumar");
System.out.println("All Names ::");
nameList.stream().forEach(name -> System.out.println(name));
// Filter all names ends with "Kumar"
List<String> filteredList = nameList.stream().filter(nam -> nam.endsWith("Kumar")).collect(Collectors.toList());
System.out.println("\nFiltered Names ::");
filteredList.stream().forEach(name -> System.out.println(name));
}
}





Output :


All Names ::

Roshna
Amit Kumar
Manoj
Neha
Rina
Ashna
Peter
Deb Kumar

Filtered Names ::

Amit Kumar
Deb Kumar


Hope this will help you. Happy Learning.

Check NullPointerException in jdk 8 - Use Optional



How to handle NullPointerException or null check in jdk 8 ? Checking null in jdk 8 using Optional<T>.

NullPointerException is most common exception which each developer need to handle. Its very common while you are playing around many object. Before JDK 8 , it was a tedious task and lots of boilerplate code you need to write to handle this NullPointerException. But, after JDK 8 it Make your code more readable and protect it against null pointer exceptions. This API will help to write cleaner and more readable code , with intelligence to handle null check internally.

Below Example has few demonstration , how to use the Optional<T> api to avoid NullPointerException. You can handle Null check for your object.


Employee.java


package com.javadevelopersguide.tutorial.jdk8;
/**
 * Employee Object
 *
 * @author manoj.bardhan
 *
 */
public class Employee {
private String empName;
private int age;
private Address empAddress;
public String getEmpName() {
return empName;
}
public void setEmpName(String empName) {
this.empName = empName;
}
public int getAge() {
return age;
}
public void setAge(int age) {
this.age = age;
}
public Address getEmpAddress() {
return empAddress;
}
public void setEmpAddress(Address empAddress) {
this.empAddress = empAddress;
}
}



Address.java

package com.javadevelopersguide.tutorial.jdk8;
/**
 * Address Object
 *
 * @author manoj.bardhan
 *
 */
public class Address {
private String homeUnitNo;
private String streetNo;
private String city;
public String getHomeUnitNo() {
return homeUnitNo;
}
public void setHomeUnitNo(String homeUnitNo) {
this.homeUnitNo = homeUnitNo;
}
public String getStreetNo() {
return streetNo;
}
public void setStreetNo(String streetNo) {
this.streetNo = streetNo;
}
public String getCity() {
return city;
}
public void setCity(String city) {
this.city = city;
}
}



NullPointerCheck.java


package com.javadevelopersguide.tutorial.jdk8;
import java.util.Optional;
/**
 * This Example demonstrate how to use JDK 8 Optional<T> Api
 *
 * @author manoj.bardhan
 *
 */
public class NullPointerCheck {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String empName = null;
/**
* Before jdk 8, This will print "Print null"
*/
if (null != empName) {
System.out.println("Print not null");
} else {
System.out.println("Print null");
}
/**
* Before jdk 8, throws NullPointerException
*/
try {
if (empName.equals("SomeThing")) {
System.out.println("Print SomeThing");
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
/**
* So Now , jdk 8 provides easy and clean API i.e Optional<T> for
* handling this type of scenario.
*/
Optional<String> optionalString = Optional.ofNullable(empName);
if (optionalString.isPresent()) {
System.out.println("Employee Name ::" + empName);
}
/**
* How to work with your own objects.
*/
Employee employee = new Employee();
employee.setEmpName("Peter");
Optional<Employee> optionalEmployee = Optional.ofNullable(employee);
if (optionalEmployee.map(Employee::getEmpAddress).isPresent()) {
System.out.println(employee.getEmpName() + "-  Address is registered");
} else {
System.out.println(employee.getEmpName() + "-  Address is  null");
}
Employee employee1 = new Employee();
employee1.setEmpName("Mark Garret");
Address address = new Address();
address.setCity("Sydney");
employee1.setEmpAddress(address);
Optional<Employee> optionalEmployeeWithAddress = Optional.ofNullable(employee1);
if (optionalEmployeeWithAddress.map(Employee::getEmpAddress).isPresent()) {
System.out.println(employee1.getEmpName() + "-  Address is " + address.getCity());
} else {
System.out.println(employee1.getEmpName() + "-  Address is  null");
}
/**
* Use Optional.empty() for set the default value for an object.
*/
Employee empObject = new Employee();
System.out.println("Returns Optional empty Value ::" + Optional.empty());
/*
* Optional.of() method doesn't handle NullPointer, be careful of this
* method while using.Always use the ofNullable() before null check.
*/
System.out.println(
"Returns Optional empty Value ::" + Optional.of(empObject).map(Employee::getEmpAddress).isPresent());
}
}

Output:-

Print null
java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.javadevelopersguide.tutorial.jdk8.NullPointerCheck.main(NullPointerCheck.java:48)
Peter-  Address is  null
Mark Garret-  Address is Sydney
Returns Optional empty Value ::Optional.empty
Returns Optional empty Value ::false



I have used below methods from Optional<T> :-

empty() - Returns an empty Optional instance


of() - Returns an Optional with the specified present non-null value.


isPresent() - If a value is present, invoke the specified consumer with the value, otherwise do nothing.


map() - If a value is present, apply the provided mapping function to it, and if the result is non-null, return an Optional describing the result.


ofNullable() - Returns an Optional describing the specified value, if non-null, otherwise returns an empty Optional.


There are few more methods are there, you can give a try. Below link will give you a complete information. Read more about the Optional<T> by JDK 8.



Hope it will help you.

Spring Boot Hello World Program

Developing your first Spring Boot application is quite easy. As we know Spring Boot makes it easy to create stand-alone, production-grade Spring based Applications that you can "just run". Its basically to minimize the configuration. 

In this example I have used below frameworks and tools for this example.

1. Maven 3.3.9 
2. JDK 1.8
3. Eclipse IDE
4. spring-boot dependency 



First step - In eclipse create a maven project  "hello-world-spring-boot" as below .


Then add the dependency for spring-boot and plug-in in the pom.xml file.


Pom.xml

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<groupId>com.javadevelopersguide.www</groupId>
<artifactId>hello-world-spring-boot</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
<description>This is a hello world example with Spring Boot.</description>
<parent>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
<version>1.5.10.RELEASE</version>
</parent>
<dependencies>
<dependency> <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId> <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId> </dependency> </dependencies>
<properties>
<java.version>1.8</java.version>
</properties>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>

</plugins>
</build>
</project>
Then create a controller class "HelloWorldController" with a rest api method sayHello()

HelloWorldController.java
package com.javadevelopersguide.springboot.example;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.EnableAutoConfiguration;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.ResponseBody;
/**
 *
 * @author manoj.bardhan
 *
 */
@Controller
@EnableAutoConfiguration
public class HelloWorldController {
@RequestMapping("/hello")
@ResponseBody
public String sayHello() {
return "Hello World Developer!!!";
}
}
I have use below annotations in my controller. Here in this example the uri path is /hello

@Controller - This is used to specify the controller , as its spring framework basic.
@EnableAutoConfiguration - This enable auto configuration for Application Context. 
@RequestMapping - This is used to map to spring mvc controller method.
@ResponseBody - Used to bind http response body with a domain object in return type.Its behind the scenes. 

Now , my controller is ready.Just I need a luncher , who can lunch my spring boot application. I have created a "SpringBootApplicationLuncher".

SpringBootApplicationLuncher.java


package com.javadevelopersguide.springboot.example;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
/**
 * This Luncher for my spring boot application.
 * @author manoj.bardhan
 *
 */
public class SpringBootApplicationLuncher {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(HelloWorldController.class, args);
}
}

Now you can run this luncher to start the spring boot application.Then, you can see the below screenshot showing the tomcat is started. As you know spring-boot is embedded with tomcat feature.



Now , your application is up and running . I have highlighted above that the tomcat is started on default port 8080

Try this tomcat URL, which is running now :- http://localhost:8080/hello




Alternatively , Also you can also start your spring-boot application on command line (Terminal). I have used windows OS.

You can use the below Maven Command  to build and run this spring-boot application :- 


1. Build the application :- mvn clean install



2. Run the application :- mvn spring-boot:run




 Now the service is running on tomcat port 8080 .Use the below URL to access the sayHello() api.

http://localhost:8080/hello

Hope it will help you.

Write a program to reverse a string using recursive method


The below example is to reverse string in java using recursive method.



package com.javadevelopersguide.www;
/**
 *
 * This Program will help you to reverse the string using recursive manner.
 *
 * @author manojkumar.bardhan
 *
 */
public class ReverseStringRecursive {
String resultString = "";
public static void main(String[] args) {
ReverseStringRecursive rec = new ReverseStringRecursive();
String inputString = "javadevelopersguide";
System.out.println("Input String::" + inputString);
String stringRev = rec.callReverse(inputString);
System.out.println("New Result String::" + stringRev);
}
private String callReverse(final String str) {
if (str.length() == 1) {
return str;
} else {
resultString += str.charAt(str.length() - 1)
+ callReverse(str.substring(0, str.length() - 1));
return resultString;
}
}
}

How can I edit / fix the last git commit's message?

How can I edit / fix the last git commit's message?

Amending any message to your git or bit-bucket is quite easy. Normally sometime, a developer need to modify the last committed message in git/bit-bucket. Git command is providing easy commands to achieve this. Follow the below steps with attached screen shot and you can do this.

Just pull your working branch , where  you want to modify the last commit. But, make sure you want to modify your last commit for the working branch.I have bit-bucket in this example post.

Command Syntax:-


git commit --amend -m "Your Amend Message"
Then use the below command to push your changes.
git push -f  origin master

Example , as per the attached screenshot. I have used the command prompt for this example. In the below example , I have updated the new message "Amending new message". Then, push  (used -means --force) the message to git/bit-bucket. Use the below screenshot as reference. 


bit-bucket command - Java Developers Guide
Bit-Bucket amend


Now, you can see in bit-bucket the last committed message. The last message I have modified , its reflecting.


bit bucket amend
Bit-Bucket web view


Hope it will help you.
