I'm trying to download the following the following file, with this link that redirects you to a direct download: http://www.lavozdegalicia.es/sitemap_sections.xml.gz
I've done my own research, but all the results I see are related to HTTP URL redirections
[3xx] and not to direct download redirections (maybe I'm using the wrong terms to do the research).
I've tried the following pieces of code (cite: https://programmerclick.com/article/7719159084/ ):
// Using Java IO
private static void downloadFileFromUrlWithJavaIO(String fileName, String fileUrl) {
BufferedInputStream inputStream = null;
FileOutputStream outputStream = null;
try {
URL url = new URL(fileUrl);
inputStream = new BufferedInputStream(url.openStream());
outputStream = new FileOutputStream(fileName);
byte data[] = new byte[1024];
int count;
while ((count = inputStream.read(data, 0, 1024)) != -1) {
outputStream.write(data, 0, count);
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
try {
if (inputStream != null) {
inputStream.close();
}
if (outputStream != null) {
outputStream.close();
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
// Using Apache common IO
private static void downloadFileFromUrlWithCommonsIO(String fileName, String fileUrl) {
try {
FileUtils.copyURLToFile(new URL(fileUrl), new File(fileName));
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
// Using NIO
private static void downloadFileFromURLUsingNIO(String fileName, String fileUrl) {
try {
URL url = new URL(fileUrl);
ReadableByteChannel readableByteChannel = Channels.newChannel(url.openStream());
FileOutputStream fileOutputStream = new FileOutputStream(fileName);
fileOutputStream.getChannel().transferFrom(readableByteChannel, 0, Long.MAX_VALUE);
fileOutputStream.close();
readableByteChannel.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
But the result I get with any of the three options is an empty file, my thoughts are that the problem is related to the file being a .xml.gz because when I debug it the inputStream doesn't seem to have any content.
I ran out of options, anyone has an idea of how to handle this case, or what would be the correct terms I should use to research about this specific case?
