Mongo and GridFS Java Driver with MATLAB

16 views (last 30 days)
I am trying to upload and download pictures from MATLAB to MongoDB using the Mongo Java Driver.
I am following below tutorial on GridFS java:
In MATLAB I did :
javaaddpath("C:\Users\****\Documents\jar_files\mongo-java-driver-3.11.0-beta3.jar")
import com.mongodb.Block;
import com.mongodb.client.MongoClients;
import com.mongodb.client.MongoClient;
import com.mongodb.client.MongoDatabase;
import com.mongodb.client.gridfs.*;
import com.mongodb.client.gridfs.model.*;
import org.bson.Document;
import org.bson.types.ObjectId;
import java.io.*;
import java.nio.file.Files;
import java.nio.charset.StandardCharsets;
import com.mongodb.client.model.Filters.eq;
mongoClient = MongoClients.create();
myDatabase = mongoClient.getDatabase("TestData");
gridFSFilesBucket = GridFSBuckets.create(myDatabase, "PicturesTest");
streamToUploadFrom = FileInputStream(File("C:\Users\****\Pictures\MyPicture.png"));
Until that point it works but then I can't do the following line:
fileId = gridFSBucket.uploadFromStream("mongodb-tutorial", streamToUploadFrom)
I get follwing error message ;
Undefined variable "gridFSBucket" or class "gridFSBucket.uploadFromStream".
I do not get why it is not able to find gridFSBucket function in the java driver.
I tried to play with the jar files it worked once but is not working anymore (do not know what I did exactly)...
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks.

The error occurs because there is no such object "gridFSBucket".
You need to create an object "gridFSBucket" of type GridFSBucket. Just add this line to your code:
gridFSBucket = GridFSBuckets.create(myDatabase);
Then add this:
fileId = gridFSBucket.uploadFromStream("mongodb-tutorial", streamToUploadFrom);

Perfect it solved the issue in fact I badly re coded the java code shown in the tutorial webpage into MATLAB.
I am gonna add the reste of the script for people interested on having the full upload/download code to MongoDB. Thanks again for the help.

Please find below an example of how to upload/download a picture from MATLAB to MongoDB:
javaaddpath("C:\Users\***\Documents\jar_files\mongo-java-driver-3.11.0-beta3.jar")
import com.mongodb.Block;
import com.mongodb.client.MongoClients;
import com.mongodb.client.MongoClient;
import com.mongodb.client.MongoDatabase;
import com.mongodb.client.gridfs.*;
import com.mongodb.client.gridfs.model.*;
import org.bson.Document;
import org.bson.types.ObjectId;
import java.io.*;
import java.nio.file.Files;
import java.nio.charset.StandardCharsets;
import com.mongodb.client.model.Filters.eq;
%connection
mongoClient = MongoClients.create();
myDatabase = mongoClient.getDatabase("TestDb");
%Upload Picture
gridFSFilesBucket = GridFSBuckets.create(myDatabase, "PicturesTest");
streamToUploadFrom = FileInputStream(File("C:\Users\***\Pictures\Mypicture.png"));
fileId = gridFSFilesBucket.uploadFromStream("mongodb-tutorial", streamToUploadFrom)
%Download Picture
streamToDownloadTo = FileOutputStream("C:\Users\***\Pictures\Mypicture.png");
gridFSFilesBucket.downloadToStream(fileId, streamToDownloadTo);
streamToDownloadTo.close();
downloadStream = gridFSFilesBucket.openDownloadStream(fileId);
% Create the copier class
isc = com.mathworks.mlwidgets.io.InterruptibleStreamCopier.getInterruptibleStreamCopier;
% Create a buffer to copy into
outputStream = java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream;
% Copy from your download stream to this buffer
isc.copyStream(downloadStream,outputStream);
% Close the buffer
outputStream.close
% Get the data from the buffer as array of int8 in MATLAB
binaryData = outputStream.toByteArray;
import java.io.ByteArrayInputStream;
import javax.imageio.ImageIO;
bais = ByteArrayInputStream(outputStream.toByteArray());
jbi = ImageIO.read(bais);
nrows = jbi.getHeight; ncols = jbi.getWidth;
data = reshape(typecast(jbi.getData.getDataStorage, 'uint8'), [], ncols, nrows);
matImg = permute(data,[3 2 1]);
% Re order RGB
matImg2=matImg(:,:,3);
matImg2(:,:,2)=matImg(:,:,2);
matImg2(:,:,3)=matImg(:,:,1);
% Display Image
imagesc(matImg2);
