Automate Skype (Skype for Business) using Java

Automate Skype(Skype for Business) using Java

I am certain that at some point in your work life - you wanted things to be automated to save you time, to think on the broader picture.

Now since many of you are working from home (WFH)  and there are days when you just wake up to switch on you laptop so that you can make your self available!! Thus saving your self from the micro management that you might face.

How about if this thing can be automated with a simple script!!! Excited !!!

JUST FOLLOW as mentioned below:

Steps :

- Create two java classes

- A windows batch file.

Create Batch file :

Create a batch file on desktop using text editor and paste the code as :

Start skype.exe param1

exit

Paste the below codes and text editor as separate java classes and run when done:

Scheduler

package org.project.main;


import java.text.DateFormat;
import java.text.ParseException;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.Timer;


 public  class tasksch 
 {
 public static void main(String[] args) throws ParseException {

    
     DateFormat dateFormatter = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
     Date date = dateFormatter.parse("2016-09-29 12:07:01");

     
     Timer timer = new Timer();
     timer.schedule(new run(), date);
        
 }

}

Class 2

package org.project.main;

import java.util.TimerTask;

public class run extends TimerTask {

 @Override
 public void run() {
  // TODO Auto-generated method stub

   
      try
      {
      
          String path="cmd /c start <path to Batch file>";
          Runtime rn=Runtime.getRuntime();
         // @SuppressWarnings("unused")
       Process pr=rn.exec(path);
        
      }

      catch(Exception e)
      {
       System.out.println("adad");
      }
            
      }
 
 }
