JSON Data into Spinner Based on Selection

Data is coming form JSON RESPONSE. In JSON, Every Tag contains number of nodes. Relevant data into second spinner is based on selection of First. My JSON Is Like Here

How to Parse JSON and firstly all major nodes into First Spinner. then when User Select that nods, according to selection Data must be reflect into second Spinner. Please guide me .

@Override

    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

This code can give you little idea about populating your objects from JSON which you get from the API's.

What you want to do is quite simple but i tried to keep things as generic as possible so anyone else ca make a use of this code.

the spinner represented in the code is populated by ArrayList of WorldPopulation type. you will notice that toString of WorldPopulation is overridden that it can be used in the ArrayAdapter so the name of the country will be picked up.

public class LoadDataActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    private Spinner spinner;
    private ArrayList<WorldPopulation> worldPopulations;

    private TextView rank_TextView;
    private TextView country_TextView;
    private TextView population_TextView;
    private TextView url_TextView;


    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_load_data);


        spinner = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.LoadDataActivity_spinner);

        rank_TextView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.LoadDataActivity_rank_textView);
        country_TextView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.LoadDataActivity_country_textView);
        population_TextView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.LoadDataActivity_population_textView);
        url_TextView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.LoadDataActivity_url_textView);

        spinner.setOnItemSelectedListener(new AdapterView.OnItemSelectedListener() {
            @Override
            public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
                WorldPopulation population = (WorldPopulation) spinner.getItemAtPosition(position);
                rank_TextView.setText("" + population.getRank());
                country_TextView.setText("" + population.getCountry());
                population_TextView.setText("" + population.getPopulation());
                url_TextView.setText("" + population.getFlag());
            }

            @Override
            public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> parent) {

            }
        });

        new DownloadData().execute();
    }


    private class DownloadData extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, Void> {

Output

Now that you have the data being populated in the Spinner you can utilize this to trigger the populate second spinner depending on the selection on the first spinner.

Apparently I didn't see any link that would tell me about the second source of data, i will leave the answer here until next update.
