package com.kayne.local.java.webscripts;

import org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpClient;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpStatus;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.UsernamePasswordCredentials;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.auth.AuthScope;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.PutMethod;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.StringRequestEntity;
import org.json.JSONObject;

public class UpdatePersonTest {

   public static void main(String[] args) {
      HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
      client.getState().setCredentials(
            new AuthScope("localhost", 8080, "Alfresco"),
            new UsernamePasswordCredentials("admin", "admin"));
      String userName = "kayne";
      String apiurl = "http://localhost:8080/alfresco/service/api/people/'+userName;
      PutMethod put = new PutMethod(apiurl);
      try {
         JSONObject person = new JSONObject();
         person.put("firstName", "kayne");
         person.put("lastName", "zhang");
         person.put("mobile", "12343424342");
         person.put("location", "N.A");
         
         System.out.println(person.toString());
         put.setDoAuthentication(true);
         put.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");
         put.setRequestEntity(new StringRequestEntity(person.toString(),
               "application/json", "UTF-8"));

         int status = client.executeMethod(put);
         if (status != HttpStatus.SC_OK) {
            System.err.println("Method failed: " + put.getStatusLine());
         }
         String resultString = put.getResponseBodyAsString();
         System.out.println(resultString);
      } catch (Exception e) {
         e.printStackTrace();
      } finally {
         put.releaseConnection();
      }
