I am trying to connect to rest service via retrofit in android application. I am getting responses. But when there is some error response from the service, conversion exception occurs and now I want to do some actions based on the response body. But I am getting response body as NULL. But retrofit log has a error message. Why is this happening.
D/Reftofit log(24856): OkHttp-Received-Millis: 1397527055676
D/Reftofit log(24856): OkHttp-Response-Source: NETWORK 200
D/Reftofit log(24856): OkHttp-Sent-Millis: 1397527055492
D/Reftofit log(24856): Server: Apache/2.2.22 (Ubuntu)
D/Reftofit log(24856): X-Powered-By: PHP/5.3.10-1ubuntu3.10
D/Reftofit log(24856): {"result":"Invalid Token ID"}
Code:
public void failure(RetrofitError retrofitError) {
String response = null;
TokenError tokenError = (TokenError) retrofitError.getBodyAs(TokenError.class);
response = tokenError.getErrorDetails();
Log.e(TAG, response);
if (response != null && response.contains("Invalid Token ID")) {
GroupDataProvider.getInstance().onFailure();
}
}
Here I am getting tokenError
as null
. I don't know why? Do I need to set something with rest adapter so that the response will be passed to retrofit error object.
Try this code:
@Override
public void failure(RetrofitError error) {
String json = new String(((TypedByteArray)error.getResponse().getBody()).getBytes());
Log.v("failure", json.toString());
}
with Retrofit 2.0
@Override
public void onFailure(Call<Example> call, Throwable t) {
String message = t.getMessage();
Log.d("failure", message);
}
if error in String format:
public Sring getErrorBodyAsString(RetrofitError error) {
return (String) error.getBodyAs(String.class)
}
if you need custom object:
class ErrorResponse {
@SerializedName("error")
int errorCode;
@SerializedName("msg")
String msg;
}
public T getErrorBody(RetrofitError error, Class<T> clazz) {
return (T) error.getBodyAs(clazz);
}
Your server should return 4xx HTTP error code to get this working.
When your server returns HTTP 200 this mean successful response and it will be processed with onSuccess
branch. Likely your object which you pass to Callback<Object>
should be ready to handle both success and error result.
To make sure this is the case you can check if RetrofitError
is actually a JsonParseException
by adding next snippet:
public void failure(RetrofitError error) {
Log.v(TAG, error.getMessage());
};
you need use getErrorStream() for this.
If the HTTP response indicates that an error occurred,
getInputStream() will throw an IOException. Use getErrorStream() to
read the error response. The headers can be read in the normal way
using getHeaderFields().
