Metadata
jOpenDocument provides an API to get and set properties of your ODF documents.
You can specify metadata values (creator, description, subject, date...) and user defined metadata.
As you can see in the sample code , we provide getters and setters for standard properties.
User definied properties are created by the getUserMeta method if you specify the second parameter to true.
The data type of a metadata is set automatically or can be specified if you need.
// Load our document
final File file = new File("template/tables.odt");
final ODPackage pkg = new ODPackage(file);
final ODMeta meta = pkg.getMeta();
// Set some meta values
meta.setTitle("jOpenDocument library sample");
if (meta.getDescription().length() == 0) {
meta.setDescription("A simple table");
}
// Get or create our meta if not exists
ODUserDefinedMeta myMeta = meta.getUserMeta("Info 1", true);
System.out.println("Old value: " + myMeta.getValue());
System.out.println("Old type: " + myMeta.getValueType().getName());
// set the value to Hello
myMeta.setValue("Hello");
System.out.println("New value: " + myMeta.getValue());
System.out.println("New type: " + myMeta.getValueType().getName());
// Save the document
pkg.saveAs(new File("template/meta_out.odt"));
