Problems Calling a Java Class from JRuby

I'm trying to use boilerpipe from JRuby. I've seen the guide for calling Java from JRuby, and have used it successfully with another Java package, but can't figure out why the same thing isn't working with boilerpipe.

I'm trying to basically do the equivalent of this Java from JRuby:

URL url = new URL("http://www.example.com/some-location/index.html");
String text = ArticleExtractor.INSTANCE.getText(url);

Tried this in JRuby:

require 'java'
url = java.net.URL.new("http://www.example.com/some-location/index.html")
text = Java::DeL3sBoilerpipeExtractors::ArticleExtractor.INSTANCE.getText(url)

This is based on the API Javadocs for boilerpipe. Here's the error:

jruby-1.6.0 :042 > Java::DeL3sBoilerpipeExtractors::ArticleExtractor

Looks like it didn't parse the camelcase into the appropriate Java package name. What am I doing wrong? I believe I've set up my classpath alright (last 3 entries), though there may be some conflict with xerces possibly being included twice:

$ echo $CLASSPATH
:/jellly/Maui1.2:/jellly/Maui1.2/src:/jellly/Maui1.2/bin:/jellly/Maui1.2/lib/commons-io-1.4.jar:/jellly/Maui1.2/lib/commons-logging.jar:/jellly/Maui1.2/lib/icu4j_3_4.jar:/jellly/Maui1.2/lib/iri.jar:/jellly/Maui1.2/lib/jena.jar:/jellly/Maui1.2/lib/maxent-2.4.0.jar:/jellly/Maui1.2/lib/mysql-connector-java-3.1.13-bin.jar:/jellly/Maui1.2/lib/opennlp-tools-1.3.0.jar:/jellly/Maui1.2/lib/snowball.jar:/jellly/Maui1.2/lib/trove.jar:/jellly/Maui1.2/lib/weka.jar:/jellly/Maui1.2/lib/wikipediaminer1.1.jar:/jellly/Maui1.2/lib/xercesImpl.jar:/jellly/boilerpipe-1.1.0/boilerpipe-1.1.0.jar:/jellly/boilerpipe-1.1.0/lib/nekohtml-1.9.13.jar:/jellly/boilerpipe-1.1.0/lib/xerces-2.9.1.jar

I'd recommend against trying to guess the module name we put under Java::, since for unusual packages it can get mangled pretty badly. Use java_import 'your.weird.package.ArticleExtractor' or if all the package components are compatible with Ruby method naming, you can also do Java::your.weird.package.ArticleExtractor.

Also, since you might run into this... you'll want to reference the INSTANCE variable as ArticleExtractor::INSTANCE, since we map it as a Ruby constant.

Have fun!

You can also use the nice Jruby Boilerpipe Gem which wraps the Java code

Or the pure ruby implementation of Boilerpipe Ruby Boilerpipe Gem

require 'boilerpipe'  

Boilerpipe::Extractors::ArticleExtractor.text("https://github.com/jruby/jruby/wiki/AboutJRuby")
