Update Metadata From Vsd File In Java

Metadata Editor for Java applications – Change metadata fields from all popular documents, images and multimedia file formats using metadata editor API for Java.

Steps for Updating Metadata to Vsd in Java

GroupDocs.Metadata for Java makes it easy for Java developers to edit metadata details to Vsd files from within their applications by implementing a few easy steps.

  1. Load the Vsd file to be updated
  2. Specify a predicate that will be used to filter desired metadata properties.
  3. Pass the predicate and the new value to the UpdateProperties method.
  4. Save the changes.
Copy
// Edit VSD creation date metadata
public class UpdatingMetadata
{
  public static void run() 
  {
    Date threeDaysAgo = new Date(System.currentTimeMillis() - TimeUnit.DAYS.toMillis(3));
    try (Metadata metadata = new Metadata("input.vsd"))
    {
        // Update the file creation date/time if the existing value is older than 3 days
        int affected = metadata.updateProperties(new ContainsTagSpecification(Tags.getTime().getCreated()).and(
                new OfTypeSpecification(MetadataPropertyType.DateTime)).and(
                new UpdatingMetadata().new DateBeforeSpecification(threeDaysAgo)), new PropertyValue(new Date()));

        // Process updation result
        System.out.println(String.format("Affected properties: %s", affected));

        // Save edited file
        metadata.save("output.vsd");
    }
  }

  // Define your own specifications to filter metadata properties
  public class DateBeforeSpecification extends Specification
  {
    public DateBeforeSpecification(Date date)
    {
      setValue(date);
    }

    public final Date getValue()
    {
      return auto_Value;
    }

    private void setValue(Date value)
    {
      auto_Value = value;
    }

    private Date auto_Value;

    public boolean isSatisfiedBy(MetadataProperty candidate)
    {
      Date date = candidate.getValue().toClass(Date.class);
      if (date != null)
      {
        return date.before(getValue());
      }
      return false;
    }
  }
}

Manipulate VSD Metadata for Java Apps

The GroupDocs.Metadata API lets developers easily update hidden metadata in various document formats in their Java applications. Apply, edit, search for, and remove metadata programmatically.

Metadata Configuration

Simple Metadata Integration

GroupDocs.Metadata simplifies adding different metadata to documents and files within your Java apps. Developers can effortlessly apply, update, or remove metadata.

Detailed Metadata Control

The API offers extensive options for customizing metadata. It is easy to find metadata in files using special requests and remove or update them.

Utilizing Native VSD Features

Depending on the document format, developers can leverage built-in metadata like EXIF for images. This might include information about photo like camera model and number, resolution, creation date and other.

Update the Lyrics tag in an MP3 file (Example)

This example demonstrates updating hidden metadata in MP# media-file.

Java


//  Load file to Metadata class constructor
try (Metadata metadata = new Metadata("input.mp3")) {
    MP3RootPackage root = metadata.getRootPackageGeneric();

    if (root.getLyrics3V2() == null) {
        root.setLyrics3V2(new LyricsTag());
    }

    //  Update lyrics data
    root.getLyrics3V2().setLyrics("[00:01]Test lyrics");
    root.getLyrics3V2().setArtist("test artist");
    root.getLyrics3V2().setAlbum("test album");
    root.getLyrics3V2().setTrack("test track");

    // You can add a fully custom field to the tag
    root.getLyrics3V2().set(new LyricsField("ABC", "custom value"));

    // Save result
    metadata.save("output.mp3");
}
