Missing object when using #SerializedName with Retrofit call

I'm developing an Android app which connects to a Springboot server.
The app (using okhttp3 and retrofit) calls the server which returns an array list in an object (Photo Response) below.
The list is populating but the object MediaContentGroup does not populate in any photo object even though the fields of id and title do.
I've debugged through my server to ensure that I am using the correct object names when using #SerializedName.
I'm pretty new to Android development and using springboot, so if anyone could help me to understand why the MediaContentGroup object is always null, I would really appreciate it.
Is there any possible way I've set it to only accept Strings??
Thanks

Clear a Model class

I have a model class "JobPostBean" which I'm initiating in another model class and adding data using the second model class. I would like to clear any data which gets saved in the "JobPostBean" class. Is there any way to clear it either in "JobPostBean" class or in the second model class where its initialised? I would prefer to clear it using a single method rather than setting every item in the "JobPostBean" class to null.
public class BidNextJobDataModel {
private static BidNextJobDataModel ourInstance = new BidNextJobDataModel();
public static BidNextJobDataModel getInstance() {
return ourInstance;
}

}

public ArrayList<JobPostBean > al_JobPostBean = new ArrayList<JobPostBean >(); // Declare as global
At first Hold Data in ArrayList .If you want delete all data then You can Clear ArrayList
al_JobPostBean.clear();
The clear() method removes all the elements of ArrayList .

Content.class and CountryRelated.class have same structure
after i do article.save() my lists doesnt save . Am i doing something wrong or it doesnt save lists at all ???

I few things to look at.
First. I do not believe that the database will handle a column with the type of List or a type of other Object. When I tried running your code, I received:
Class cannot be read from Sqlite3 database. Please check the type of field categories(java.util.List)
These should be types the database can store. Try serializing your List(s) to Strings to insert them in the db. You can try doing this in your getter and setter. The setter takes the list of objects and converts it to a serialized String, the getter takes the serialized String and converts it back to a list of objects.
In the instance of SugarOrm, you can reference another table and it will create a relationship outlined here:
http://satyan.github.io/sugar/creation.html#why
Notice the "Author" type is just referencing a record from another table in the database.
Second I usually try and set my default values inside my default constructor. so something like:
... property declarations...
public Article() {
this.name = "Default Value";
}
Hope this helps you finish troublshooting!

Realm: How to query with many to many field

I recently heard about Realm for android (also available for iOS) in this talk by Joaquim Verques . Very interesting and very powerful tool for persistent data.
I decided to give it a try after the video, researching and reading the documentation.
I found it very easy to use and set up but i end up stuck in the middle of my project because i couldn't manage to successfully make a query with many to many relationships.
I have created a small example for this topic.
My models:
public class Feed extends RealmObject {
#PrimaryKey
private int id;
private String title;
private String description;
private String link;
private Terms terms;
public int getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(int id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getTitle() {
return title;
}
public void setTitle(String title) {
this.title = title;
}
public String getDescription() {
return description;
}
public void setDescription(String description) {
this.description = description;
}
public String getLink() {
return link;
}
public void setLink(String link) {
this.link = link;
}
public Terms getTerms() {
return terms;
}
public void setTerms(Terms terms) {
this.terms = terms;
}
}
public class Terms extends RealmObject {
private String tag;
private RealmList<Category> categories;
public String getTag() {
return tag;
}
public void setTag(String tag) {
this.tag = tag;
}
public RealmList<Category> getCategories() {
return categories;
}
public void setCategories(RealmList<Category> categories) {
this.categories = categories;
}
}
public class Category extends RealmObject {
#PrimaryKey
private int id;
private String name;
public int getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(int id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
}
So far so good, now im going to save a list of feeds to realm (make it persistent) and then try to make some query.
public static void test(final Context context,final List<Feed> feedList) {
Realm realm = null;
try {
realm = Realm.getInstance(context);
realm.beginTransaction();
realm.copyToRealmOrUpdate(feedList);
realm.commitTransaction();
RealmResults<Feed> realmResults = realm.where(Feed.class).findAll();// return me all feeds
RealmResults<Feed> realmResults1 = realm.where(Feed.class).equalTo("id", 1).findAll(); // return feed with id 1
RealmResults<Feed> realmResults2 = realm.where(Feed.class).equalTo("terms.tag", "tech").findAll(); // return feeds //with tag = "tech"
RealmResults<Feed> realmResults3 = realm.where(Feed.class).equalTo("terms.category.name", "test").findAll(); //exception here
}
} catch (Exception e) {
//Empty
Log.d("Test","",e);
} finally {
if (realm != null)
realm.close();
}
}
}
Everything run well untill the last query and i get this exception:"java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid query: category does not refer to a class."
So my question is How do i do that kind of query successfully, as i will like realm to return me every feed with terms which has at least 1 category with name = "test"
Thank you very much

Your field is called "categories" and not "category". The third query should be:
RealmResults<Feed> realmResults3 = realm.where(Feed.class).equalTo("terms.categories.name", "test").findAll();

Create an android model class in Android Studio

I am trying to create a model class like we do in Eclipse ADT simply by creating a folder and referencing it but in Android Studio I am a bit confused.
How can create model class in Android Studio , which folder is the appropriate if I do right click on package->New->?

You can do like this
right click on any package like com.example.setu and then
New->package.Here just give the name like model.Then it will create a
folder under that package.You can add POJO classes here by just right clicking New->Java class

you can create model class in simple steps
create a java class name
public class Wallet_Model {
String date, amount, storeid, storename, description, type;
public Wallet_Model(String date, String amount, String storeid, String storename, String description, String type) {
this.date = date;
this.amount = amount;
this.storeid = storeid;
this.storename = storename;
this.description = description;
this.type = type;
}
public Wallet_Model() {
}
public String getDate() {
return date;
}
public void setDate(String date) {
this.date = date;
}
public String getAmount() {
return amount;
}
public void setAmount(String amount) {
this.amount = amount;
}
public String getStoreid() {
return storeid;
}
public void setStoreid(String storeid) {
this.storeid = storeid;
}
public String getStorename() {
return storename;
}
public void setStorename(String storename) {
this.storename = storename;
}
public String getDescription() {
return description;
}
public void setDescription(String description) {
this.description = description;
}
public String getType() {
return type;
}
public void setType(String type) {
this.type = type;
}
