Create Document file dynamically using java

In this project we are trying to create a Microsoft Word file using Apache POI api with JAVA.
1. Project Structure

2. Jars used in the project are,
1. poi-3.17.jar
2. poi-ooxml-3.17.jar
3. poi-ooxml-schemas-3.17.jar
4. xmlbeans-2.6.0.jar
5. Mysql connector jar

3. Generate_Document.java

package com.chillyfacts.com;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import org.apache.poi.xwpf.usermodel.VerticalAlign;
import org.apache.poi.xwpf.usermodel.XWPFDocument;
import org.apache.poi.xwpf.usermodel.XWPFParagraph;
import org.apache.poi.xwpf.usermodel.XWPFRun;
import org.apache.poi.xwpf.usermodel.XWPFTable;
import org.apache.poi.xwpf.usermodel.XWPFTableRow;
public class Generate_Document {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		try {
		  XWPFDocument document = new XWPFDocument(); 
	      FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(new File("E:\\downloaded\\chillyfacts.docx"));
	      XWPFParagraph paragraph = document.createParagraph();
	      XWPFRun run = paragraph.createRun();
	      run.setText("Welcome to my channel. Chillyfacts.com created word document. Test test");
	      //create table
	      XWPFTable table = document.createTable();
	      //create first row
	      XWPFTableRow tableRowOne = table.getRow(0);
	      tableRowOne.getCell(0).setText("col one, row one");
	      tableRowOne.addNewTableCell().setText("col two, row one");
	      tableRowOne.addNewTableCell().setText("col three, row one");
	      //create second row
	      XWPFTableRow tableRowTwo = table.createRow();
	      tableRowTwo.getCell(0).setText("col one, row two");
	      tableRowTwo.getCell(1).setText("col two, row two");
	      tableRowTwo.getCell(2).setText("col three, row two");
	      //create third row
	      XWPFTableRow tableRowThree = table.createRow();
	      tableRowThree.getCell(0).setText("col one, row three");
	      tableRowThree.getCell(1).setText("col two, row three");
	      tableRowThree.getCell(2).setText("col three, row three");
	      XWPFRun paragraphOneRunThree = paragraph.createRun();
	     // paragraphOneRunThree.setStrike(true);
	      paragraphOneRunThree.setFontSize(30);
	      paragraphOneRunThree.setSubscript(VerticalAlign.SUBSCRIPT);
	      paragraphOneRunThree.setText(" Font Styles");
		  document.write(out);
	      out.close();
	      System.out.println("createparagraph.docx written successfully");
		} catch (Exception e) {
			// TODO: handle exception
		}
	}
}

The above code will create document file in the folder given E:\\downloaded\\chillyfacts.docx

3. Now to create Document file using data from MySQL database. First we have to get the connection to database.
MySQL table sample data.
table name:links

Connection Class DBConnection.java. This class will get connection from database ‘test’
DBConnection.java

package com.chillyfacts.com;
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.SQLException; 
public class DBConnection {     
	public Connection getConnection(){          
		Connection connection=null;                      
		System.out.println("Connection called");                  
		try {                                                                  
			Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");              
    	    connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test","root", "root");
		} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		} catch (SQLException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
		return connection;
	}
}

Code to take value from MySQL db using DBConnection.java
Generate_Document_From_DB.java

package com.chillyfacts.com;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import java.sql.Statement;
import org.apache.poi.wp.usermodel.Paragraph;
import org.apache.poi.xwpf.usermodel.VerticalAlign;
import org.apache.poi.xwpf.usermodel.XWPFDocument;
import org.apache.poi.xwpf.usermodel.XWPFParagraph;
import org.apache.poi.xwpf.usermodel.XWPFRun;
import org.apache.poi.xwpf.usermodel.XWPFTable;
import org.apache.poi.xwpf.usermodel.XWPFTableRow;
public class Generate_Document_From_DB {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        try {
            XWPFDocument document = new XWPFDocument();
            FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(new File("E:\\downloaded\\chillyfacts_from_DB.docx"));
            XWPFParagraph paragraph = document.createParagraph();
            XWPFRun run = paragraph.createRun();
            DBConnection obj_DBConnection = new DBConnection();
            Connection connection = obj_DBConnection.getConnection();
            String query = "select * from links";
            Statement stmt = null;
            stmt = connection.createStatement();
            ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(query);
            while (rs.next()) {
                run.setText(rs.getString("numbers"));
                run.addBreak();
            }
            document.write(out);
            out.close();
            System.out.println("createparagraph.docx written successfully");
        } catch (Exception e) {
            // TODO: handle exception
        }
    }
}

The above code will create doc file as below

4. To read a document file. We can use the below code.
Read_Doc.java

package com.chillyfacts.com;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import org.apache.poi.xwpf.extractor.XWPFWordExtractor;
import org.apache.poi.xwpf.usermodel.XWPFDocument;
public class Read_Doc {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        try {
        XWPFDocument docx = new XWPFDocument(new FileInputStream("E:\\downloaded\\Read2.docx"));
        XWPFWordExtractor we = new XWPFWordExtractor(docx);
        System.out.println(we.getText());
        } catch (Exception e) {
            // TODO: handle exception
        }
    }
}

Output in eclipse console
