response.body()
does not return content of the API but it returns this:
com.example.senolb.project.Downsized@e4bbc81
This is my interface for the request:
public interface ApiInterface {
@GET("search")
Call<Downsized> getDownsized(@Query("api_key") String key,
@Query("fmt") String format,
@Query("q") String type,
@Query("limit") String limit);
Retrofit retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder()
.baseUrl("http://api.giphy.com/v1/gifs/")
.addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
.build();
}
This is my Downsized class:
@Generated("org.jsonschema2pojo")
public class Downsized {
@SerializedName("url")
@Expose
private String url;
@SerializedName("width")
@Expose
private String width;
@SerializedName("height")
@Expose
private String height;
@SerializedName("size")
@Expose
private String size;
// getter and setter methods below
And this is my request function at the main page which triggers when I push a button:
public void request(View view) throws IOException {
ApiInterface service = ApiInterface.retrofit.create(ApiInterface.class);
Call<Downsized> myDownsized = service.getDownsized("dc6zaTOxFJmzC","json","funny","1");
myDownsized.enqueue(new Callback<Downsized>() {
@Override
public void onResponse(Call<Downsized> call, Response<Downsized> response) {
if (response.isSuccessful()) {
TextView text2 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.first_text);
Downsized dw = response.body();
text2.setText(dw.getHeight());
} else {
//unsuccessful response
}
}
@Override
public void onFailure(Call<Downsized> call, Throwable t) {
//failed response
}
});
What should I do?
Your problem is that you're not parsing correctly the returned json from api. First of all create three more classes to map your json data:
First class:
import com.google.gson.annotations.Expose;
import com.google.gson.annotations.SerializedName;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
public class JsonResponse {
@SerializedName("data")
@Expose
private List<Data> dataList = new ArrayList<>();
public List<Data> getDataList() {
return dataList;
}
}
second class:
import com.google.gson.annotations.Expose;
import com.google.gson.annotations.SerializedName;
public class Data {
@SerializedName("images")
@Expose
private Image images;
public Image getImages() {
return images;
}
}
third class:
import com.google.gson.annotations.Expose;
import com.google.gson.annotations.SerializedName;
public class Image {
@SerializedName("downsized")
@Expose
private Downsized downsized;
public Downsized getDownsized() {
return downsized;
}
}
After that change your interface to use JsonResponse
class not Downsized
:
import retrofit2.Call;
import retrofit2.Retrofit;
import retrofit2.converter.gson.GsonConverterFactory;
import retrofit2.http.GET;
import retrofit2.http.Query;
public interface ApiInterface {
Retrofit retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder()
.baseUrl("http://api.giphy.com/v1/gifs/")
.addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
.build();
@GET("search")
Call<JsonResponse> getDownsized(@Query("api_key") String key,
@Query("fmt") String format,
@Query("q") String type,
@Query("limit") String limit);
}
and finally change the code in your request()
method:
ApiInterface service = ApiInterface.retrofit.create(ApiInterface.class);
Call<JsonResponse> myDownsized = service.getDownsized("dc6zaTOxFJmzC", "json", "funny", "1");
myDownsized.enqueue(new Callback<JsonResponse>() {
@Override
public void onResponse(Call<JsonResponse> call, Response<JsonResponse> response) {
if (response.isSuccessful()) {
for (Data data : response.body().getDataList()) {
System.out.println(data.getImages().getDownsized().getUrl());
//TextView text2 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.first_text);
//Downsized dw = response.body();
//text2.setText(dw.getHeight());
}
} else {
//unsuccessful response
}
}
@Override
public void onFailure(Call<JsonResponse> call, Throwable t) {
//failed response
}
});
After running the result is: simpsons
You must cast the body to Downsized object before, like this:
if (response.isSuccessful()) {
Downsized downsized = response.body();
String url=downsized.getUrl();
}
