This script create a thumbnail with width 100 of each png file in the actual directory.

#!/bin/sh

Java, showing script engines

Posted by on 10 September, 2008 No comments

A simple code to show the script engines installed in your system.

As it uses the JSR-223 you need at least java 6.

import javax.script.ScriptEngineManager;
import javax.script.ScriptEngineFactory;
import java.util.List;
 
public class ListEngines {
    public static void main(String[] args){
	ScriptEngineManager manager = new ScriptEngineManager();
	List <ScriptEngineFactory> engines = manager.getEngineFactories();
	for(ScriptEngineFactory engine: engines){
		String name = engine.getEngineName();
		String lang = engine.getLanguageName();
		String ver = engine.getLanguageVersion();
		System.out.println(name+" "+lang+" "+ver);
	}
    }
}

$ java -version
java version “1.6.0_0″
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_0-b11)
OpenJDK Client VM (build 1.6.0_0-b11, mixed mode, sharing)
$ javac ListEngines.java
$ java ListEngines
Mozilla Rhino ECMAScript 1.6

For now I just have Rhino ECMAScript (JavaScript) engine accessible that comes with Java 6. I’m trying now to call Jython and JRuby code.

Script to Installing JavaFX Compiler

Posted by on 16 July, 2008 2 comments

Right in this moment you can choose between three options to develop JavaFX:

I did this little script to download the last version of JavaFX continuos build and install it for you.

#!/bin/sh
envfile=$HOME/.bash_profile
 
#download and unpatch the last build of JavaFx
mkdir jfx
cd jfx
wget http://openjfx.java.sun.com/hudson/job/openjfx-compiler/lastBuild/artifact/openjfx-compiler/dist//*zip*/dist.zip
unzip dist.zip
rm dist.zip
 
#set files at bin folder as executable
chmod +x dist/bin/*
 
#add those executables to the path
echo "PATH=\$PATH:`pwd`/dist/bin" >> $envfile

Save this script as install_jfx.sh and execute it. Probably you want to execute it at you home directory. If you want to install JavaFX to root change envfile for /root/.bash_profile, if you want to install to all users change for /etc/profile. I tested this script successfully on my Ubuntu 8.04.

After that open a new terminal and try to see if javafx, javafxc and javafxdoc are available. You can test your enviroment with this simple program.

import javafx.ui.*;
import java.lang.*;
 
Frame {
  visible: true
  content: FlowPanel {
  content: Button {
      var n = 0
      text: bind Integer.toString(n)
      action: function() {
        n++;
      }
    }
  }
}

Save it as Counter.fx, compile with javafxc Counter.fx and so execute it with javafx Counter.fx.

To know more, take a look into the preliminary JavaFX API or in the article Using JavaFX GUI Toolkit.

Terminal with colors in OpenSolaris

Posted by on 7 May, 2008 5 comments

As the earlies versions of OpenSolaris, my terminal is without colors. That’s a little annoying. As the default user uses Bash you can configure your Bash options in the file ~/.bashrc. Insert in the last lines of your .bashrc file:

alias ls=’ls –color=auto’

Save, close and open your terminal (or just type source ~/.bashrc).

JavaFX: Color picker

Posted by on 19 February, 2008 2 comments

An simple color picker that can be also used as a gadget.

import javafx.ui.*;
import javafx.ui.canvas.*;

var colors = [red:Color, orange:Color, yellow:Color, green:Color,
     cyan:Color,blue:Color, magenta:Color, gray:Color];

var chosenColor: Paint;
chosenColor = black:Color;

var x = 120;
var y = 70;

Canvas{
    content: Group{
        transform: bind translate(x,y)
        content: [Star{
            points: sizeof colors
            rin: 30
            rout: 50
            fill: bind chosenColor
            onMouseDragged: operation(e) {
                x += e.localDragTranslation.x;
                y += e.localDragTranslation.y;
            }
        },
        foreach (i in [1..sizeof colors]) Circle {
            var: self
            transform: [rotate(i*360/sizeof colors,0,0), translate(50,0)]
            radius: 10
            fill: colors[i%sizeof colors]
            onMouseClicked: operation (e){
                chosenColor = self.fill;
            }
        }]
    }
}

Draggable and Growable Ball in JavaFX

Posted by on 16 February, 2008 2 comments

Two simple JavaFX code handling onMouseDragged event.

import javafx.ui.*;
import javafx.ui.canvas.*;

Canvas {
    content: Circle {
        var x = 50
        var y = 50
        transform: bind translate(x, y)
        radius: 30
        fill: red
        onMouseDragged: operation(e) {
                x += e.localDragTranslation.x;
                y += e.localDragTranslation.y;

        }
    }
}


import javafx.ui.*;
import javafx.ui.canvas.*;

Canvas {
    content: Circle {
        var x = 50
        var y = 50
        var radius = 30
        transform: bind translate(x, y)
        radius: bind radius
        fill: red
        onMouseDragged: operation(e) {
            if (e.button == 1){
                x += e.localDragTranslation.x;
                y += e.localDragTranslation.y;
            }
            if (e.button == 3) {
                radius += e.localDragTranslation.x;
            }
        }
    }
}


import javafx.ui.*;
import javafx.ui.canvas.*;

Canvas {
    content: [
    Rect {x: 50, y: 50, width: 50, height: 50, fill: orange },
    Circle {
        var x = 50
        var y = 50
        var radius = 30
        var color = red:Color
        transform: bind translate(x, y)
        radius: bind radius
        fill: bind color
        onMouseDragged: operation(e) {
            if (e.button == 1){
                x += e.localDragTranslation.x;
                y += e.localDragTranslation.y;
            }
            if (e.button == 3) {
                radius += e.localDragTranslation.x;
            }
        }
        onMousePressed: operation(e){
            color = Color {blue: 0.0, green: 0.0, red: 1.0, opacity: 0.5};
        }
        onMouseReleased: operation(e){
            color = red:Color;
        }
    }]
}

You can test this examples with thhe JavaFX Pad or using Netbeans with the JavaFX Plugin.
