Populating a HashMap with entries from a properties file

Question

I want to populate a HashMap using the Properties class.
I want to load the entries in the .propeties file and then copy it into

Answer 1

Java 8 Style:

Properties properties = new Properties();
// add  some properties  here
Map<String, String> map = new HashMap();

map.putAll(properties.entrySet()
                     .stream()
                     .collect(Collectors.toMap(e -> e.getKey().toString(), 
                                               e -> e.getValue().toString())));

Answer 2

If I understand correctly, each value in the properties is a String which represents an Integer. So the code would look like this:

for (String key : properties.stringPropertyNames()) {
    String value = properties.getProperty(key);
    mymap.put(key, Integer.valueOf(value));
}

Answer 3

Use .entrySet()

for (Entry<Object, Object> entry : properties.entrySet()) {
    map.put((String) entry.getKey(), (String) entry.getValue());
}

Answer 4

public static Map<String,String> getProperty()
    {
        Properties prop = new Properties();
        Map<String,String>map = new HashMap<String,String>();
        try
        {
            FileInputStream inputStream = new FileInputStream(Constants.PROPERTIESPATH);
            prop.load(inputStream);
        }
        catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
            System.out.println("Some issue finding or loading file....!!! " + e.getMessage());

        }
        for (final Entry<Object, Object> entry : prop.entrySet()) {
            map.put((String) entry.getKey(), (String) entry.getValue());
        }
        return map;
    }

Answer 5

you can use the below Method to load the property file in a map

public static Map<String, String> getProperties(String filePropertyFile){
        Properties getProperties = new Properties();
        FileInputStream inputStream = null;
        HashMap<String, String> propertyMap = new HashMap<String, String>();
        try {
            inputStream = new FileInputStream(filePropertyFile);
            getProperties.load(inputStream);
            propertyMap.putAll((Map) getProperties);

        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return propertyMap;
    }

Unit Test:

@Test
public void getPropertiesTest()
    String outputOmJarArrayAttributesPath = System.getProperty("user.dir") + "/src/main/resources/OutputOmJarArrayAttributes.properties";
    System.out.println(PropertyFileUtils.getProperties(outputOmJarArrayAttributesPath));;
    }
