I'm using Retrofit to integrate my Web services and I do not understand how to send a JSON object to the server using a POST request. I'm currently stuck, here is my code:
Activity:-
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Retrofit retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder().baseUrl(url).
addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create()).build();
PostInterface service = retrofit.create(PostInterface.class);
JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject();
try {
jsonObject.put("email", "device3@gmail.com");
jsonObject.put("password", "1234");
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
final String result = jsonObject.toString();
}
PostInterface:-
public interface PostInterface {
@POST("User/DoctorLogin")
Call<String> getStringScalar(@Body String body);
}
Request JSON:-
{
"email":"device3@gmail.com",
"password":"1234"
}
Response JSON:-
{
"error": false,
"message": "User Login Successfully",
"doctorid": 42,
"active": true
}
Use these in gradle
compile 'com.squareup.retrofit2:retrofit:2.3.0'
compile 'com.squareup.retrofit2:converter-gson:2.3.0'
compile 'com.squareup.retrofit2:converter-scalars:2.3.0'
Use these two POJO class ........
LoginData.class
public class LoginData {
private String email;
private String password;
public LoginData(String email, String password) {
this.email = email;
this.password = password;
}
/**
*
* @return
* The email
*/
public String getEmail() {
return email;
}
/**
*
* @param email
* The email
*/
public void setEmail(String email) {
this.email = email;
}
/**
*
* @return
* The password
*/
public String getPassword() {
return password;
}
/**
*
* @param password
* The password
*/
public void setPassword(String password) {
this.password = password;
}
}
LoginResult.class
public class LoginResult {
private Boolean error;
private String message;
private Integer doctorid;
private Boolean active;
/**
*
* @return
* The error
*/
public Boolean getError() {
return error;
}
/**
*
* @param error
* The error
*/
public void setError(Boolean error) {
this.error = error;
}
/**
*
* @return
* The message
*/
public String getMessage() {
return message;
}
/**
*
* @param message
* The message
*/
public void setMessage(String message) {
this.message = message;
}
/**
*
* @return
* The doctorid
*/
public Integer getDoctorid() {
return doctorid;
}
/**
*
* @param doctorid
* The doctorid
*/
public void setDoctorid(Integer doctorid) {
this.doctorid = doctorid;
}
/**
*
* @return
* The active
*/
public Boolean getActive() {
return active;
}
/**
*
* @param active
* The active
*/
public void setActive(Boolean active) {
this.active = active;
}
}
Use API like this
public interface RetrofitInterface {
@POST("User/DoctorLogin")
Call<LoginResult> getStringScalar(@Body LoginData body);
}
use call like this ....
Retrofit retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder()
.baseUrl("Your domain URL here")
.addConverterFactory(ScalarsConverterFactory.create())
.addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
.build();
RetrofitInterface service = retrofit.create(RetrofitInterface .class);
Call<LoginResult> call=service.getStringScalar(new LoginData(email,password));
call.enqueue(new Callback<LoginResult>() {
@Override
public void onResponse(Call<LoginResult> call, Response<LoginResult> response) {
//response.body() have your LoginResult fields and methods (example you have to access error then try like this response.body().getError() )
}
@Override
public void onFailure(Call<LoginResult> call, Throwable t) {
//for getting error in network put here Toast, so get the error on network
}
});
EDIT:-
put this inside the success()
....
if(response.body().getError()){
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(),response.body().getMessage(),Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}else {
//response.body() have your LoginResult fields and methods (example you have to access error then try like this response.body().getError() )
String msg = response.body().getMessage();
int docId = response.body().getDoctorid();
boolean error = response.body().getError();
boolean activie = response.body().getActive()();
}
Note :- Always use POJO classes , it remove the JSON data parsing in the retrofit .
This way works for me
My web service
Add this in your gradle
compile 'com.squareup.retrofit2:retrofit:2.3.0'
compile 'com.squareup.retrofit2:converter-gson:2.3.0'
compile 'com.squareup.retrofit2:converter-scalars:2.3.0'
Interface
public interface ApiInterface {
String ENDPOINT = "http://10.157.102.22/rest/";
@Headers("Content-Type: application/json")
@POST("login")
Call<User> getUser(@Body String body);
}
Activity
public class SampleActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements Callback<User> {
@Override
protected void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_sample);
Retrofit retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder()
.baseUrl(ApiInterface.ENDPOINT)
.addConverterFactory(ScalarsConverterFactory.create())
.addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
.build();
ApiInterface apiInterface = retrofit.create(ApiInterface.class);
// prepare call in Retrofit 2.0
try {
JSONObject paramObject = new JSONObject();
paramObject.put("email", "sample@gmail.com");
paramObject.put("pass", "4384984938943");
Call<User> userCall = apiInterface.getUser(paramObject.toString());
userCall.enqueue(this);
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
@Override
public void onResponse(Call<User> call, Response<User> response) {
}
@Override
public void onFailure(Call<User> call, Throwable t) {
}
}
i think you should now create a service generator class and after that
you should use Call to call your service
PostInterface postInterface = ServiceGenerator.createService(PostInterface.class);
Call<responseBody> responseCall =
postInterface.getStringScalar(requestBody);
then you can use this for synchronous request and get the body of response:
responseCall.execute().body();
and for asynchronous :
responseCall.enqueue(Callback);
