Fastest way to parse JSON

I have an app that loads data from a JSON URL, but it takes about 8 seconds to load and I believe this is because of parsing.
I want to know if is there a faster way to parse it faster and easier?
This is the function I am using to read the JSON:
public class LoadJson extends AsyncTask <String, Void, String> {
#Override
protected String doInBackground(String... params) {
HttpURLConnection connection = null;
BufferedReader reader = null;
try {
URL url = new URL(params[0]);
connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
connection.connect();
InputStream stream = connection.getInputStream();
reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(stream));
StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
String line = "";
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
buffer.append(line);
}
String finalJson = buffer.toString();
return finalJson;
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return "Faild";
}
}
}
and:
public JSONArray ExcuteLoad() {
LoadJson task = new LoadJson();
String resualt = null;
try {
resualt = task.execute("MY_JSON_FILE_URL").get();
JSONObject json = new JSONObject(resualt);
JSONArray jarray = json.getJSONArray("marcadores");
return jarray;
}
catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return null;
}
}
UPDATE 1:
Ok folks i change the code base on what you suggested about using onPostExecute but the problem is i can't return the value of jsonarray outside of asyncTask, got really confused....
public class LoadJson extends AsyncTask <String, Void, String> {
public class LoadJson extends AsyncTask <String, Void, String> {
public interface AsyncResponse {
void processFinish(String output);
}
public AsyncResponse delegate = null;
public LoadJson (AsyncResponse delegate){
this.delegate = delegate;
}
#Override
protected String doInBackground(String... params) {
String resualt = "";
URL url;
HttpURLConnection urlConnection = null;
try {
url = new URL(params[0]);
urlConnection = (HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();
InputStream in = urlConnection.getInputStream();
InputStreamReader reader = new InputStreamReader(in);
int data = reader.read();
while (data != -1) {
char current = (char) data;
resualt += current;
data = reader.read();
}
return resualt;
}
catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return "Failed";
}
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
delegate.processFinish(result);
}
}
and My Fragment class:
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_main, container, false);
LoadJson asyncTask = (LoadJson) new LoadJson (new LoadJson.AsyncResponse(){
#Override
public void processFinish(String output){
//Here you will receive the result fired from async class
//of onPostExecute(result) method.
try {
JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject(output);
JSONArray jsonArray = jsonObject.getJSONArray("marcadores");
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}).execute();

Your problem isn't parsing the JSON. You can't speed that up. Using a different library (probably) isn't going to make that faster either. (I'm talking about load times, not development time).
It comes down to how you make the request as well as your internet speed.
For example, this is not how you use an AsyncTask.
resualt = task.execute("MY_JSON_FILE_URL").get();
Because you just made an asynchronous call into a synchronous one. In other words, the get() method will block and wait for a result, therefore taking time and cause the data to load slowly.
Now, sure, libraries reduce the complexity of AsyncTask and make development "faster and easier", but the quick answer here is to actually use onPostExecute of the AsyncTask class to load the data asynchronously, off the main thread.
The best example I can give is Using a callback to return the data
Update
private JSONArray array;
private void parseJSON(JSONArray array) {
this.array = array;
// TODO: something
}
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_main, container, false);
LoadJson asyncTask = (LoadJson) new LoadJson (new LoadJson.AsyncResponse(){
#Override
public void processFinish(String output){
//Here you will receive the result fired from async class
//of onPostExecute(result) method.
try {
JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject(output);
JSONArray jsonArray = jsonObject.getJSONArray("marcadores");
for (int i = 0; i < jsonArray.length; i++) {
// TODO: Parse the array, fill an arraylist
}
// TODO: Set / notify an adapter
// Or....
parseJSON(jsonArray);
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}).execute();

how to fetch json object from url in android

I want to fetch json data from json object.
My json data is:{"avg":2.5} and my android code is
public class AsyncTaskParseJson extends AsyncTask < String, String, String > {
final String TAG = "AsyncTaskParseJson.java";
// set your json string url here
String yourJsonStringUrl = "http://www.bsservicess.com/photoUpload/star_avg.php?bookName=" + book_name;
// contacts JSONArray
#Override
protected void onPreExecute() {}
#Override
protected String doInBackground(String...arg0) {
try {
JSONParser jParser = new JSONParser();
// get json string from url
JSONObject json = jParser.getJSONFromUrl(yourJsonStringUrl);
// get the array of users
JSONObject dataJsonArr = json.getJSONObject(str);
String c = dataJsonArr.getString("avg");
na = c;
starts = Float.parseFloat(c);
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(String strFromDoInBg) {
super.onPostExecute(strFromDoInBg);
netRate.setRating(starts);
Toast.makeText(mybookview.this, Float.toString(starts), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
But somehow its not working.I have trie every tutorial and evrything but nothing works.plz help me

your getting the json data in response is as {"avg":2.5}
simple remove the below code
JSONObject dataJsonArr = json.getJSONObject(str);
String c = dataJsonArr.getString("avg");
with below line
String c = json.getString("avg");

this is for simple get data from url example:
Parse JSON from HttpURLConnection object
and if you want use library then try Volley:
tutorial link:
http://www.androidhive.info/2014/05/android-working-with-volley-library-1/

A very simple solution to your problem
String str = "{ \"avg\" :0 }";
JsonParser parser = new JsonParser();
JsonObject object = (JsonObject) parser.parse(str);
String value = object.get("avg").getAsString();
But first of all you have to correct the warning in your backend.
EDIT the complete solution
public class AsyncTaskParseJson extends AsyncTask < String, String, String > {
HttpURLConnection urlConnection;
#Override
protected String doInBackground(String...args) {
StringBuilder result = new StringBuilder();
try {
URL url = new URL("http://www.bsservicess.com/photoUpload/star_avg.php?bookName=" + book_name);
urlConnection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
InputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(urlConnection.getInputStream());
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader( in ));
String line;
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
result.append(line);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
urlConnection.disconnect();
}
return result.toString();
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
JsonParser parser = new JsonParser();
JsonObject object = (JsonObject) parser.parse(result);
String value = object.get("avg").getAsString();
}
}
But first of all remove the warning from the web response!

JSON Get Value by Edittext

I'm trying to get JSON value by EditText.
At first I had a bunch of nullpointer exceptions, solved that. But now my function just isn't working. Been wrapping my brain over this...
I tried to create a EditText, get that value to a String, and get it over to the JSON Object. Don't know what I'm doing wrong... Or am I forgetting something?
public class MyActivity extends Activity {
TextView uid;
TextView name1;
TextView email1;
EditText edt;
Button Btngetdata;
//URL to get JSON Array
private static String url = "*";
//JSON Node Names
private static final String TAG_TAG = "tag";
private static final String TAG_ID = "id";
private static final String TAG_LAST_NAME = "last_name";

pDialog.setMessage("Getting Data ...");
pDialog.setIndeterminate(false);
pDialog.setCancelable(true);
pDialog.show();
}
#Override

return json;
}
#Override

String xyz = edt.getText().toString();
// Storing JSON item in a Variable
String id = c.getString(TAG_ID);
String name = c.getString(TAG_LAST_NAME);
String email = c.getString(TAG_EMAIL);
//Set JSON Data in TextView
uid.setText(id);

edt.setText(xyz);
} catch (JSONException e) {

JSONObject c = user.getJSONObject(Integer.parseInt(xyz));
I Modified to this, im getting a response other than default 1 when base value was getJSONObject(0), but now im entering 1 and im getting 2, entering 4 getting 5..
Does anyone know how to solve this one?

If you are trying to parse the whole json array then use this.In you post execute
List<String> allid = new ArrayList<String>();
JSONArray obj= jsonResponse.getJSONArray("tag");
for (int i=0; i<obj.length(); i++) {
JSONObject actor = cast.getJSONObject(i);
String id= actor.getString("id");
allNames.add(id);
}
Then you can use a for loop to get the id in the list accordingly.
Otherwise you can do this parsing Using the Gson Library(you can download Gson library here
Just create a class in your package
public class DetailArray {
public boolean status;
public List<Detail_User> details;
public class Detail_User {
public String id;
public String first_name;
public String last_name;
public String email;
public String country;
}
}
In your post execute
Where response is the json response
DetailArray detail1 = (new Gson()).fromJson(response.toString(),
DetailArray.class);
Now Suppose , if you want to set the names in a list view then
//return a arraylist
private ArrayList<String> getName(DetailArray detail) {
ArrayList name = new ArrayList<String>();
for (int i=0;i< detail.details.size();i++) {
name.add(splitStr[i]);
}
return names;
}
Setting the array adapter and setting it to a list
ArrayAdapter<String> arrayAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(
this,
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,
getName(detail);
listview.setAdapter(arrayAdapter);

For a particular position try like this
int positionToShow = Integer.parseInt(edt.getText().toString()) - 1;
user = json.getJSONArray(TAG_TAG);
for(int i = 0; i < user.length(); i++) {
if(positionToShow == i) {
JSONObject c = user.getJSONObject(i);
// Storing JSON item in a Variable
String id = c.getString(TAG_ID);
String name = c.getString(TAG_LAST_NAME);
String email = c.getString(TAG_EMAIL);
uid.setText(id);
name1.setText(name);
email1.setText(email);
}
}

i've parse your json ...acc to number entered ..and it shows exact result....refer this....
final EditText no=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.editText1);
final Button click=(Button)findViewById(R.id.button1);
click.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener()
{
#Override
public void onClick(View arg0)
{
try
{
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, no.getText().toString(), 0).show();
HttpClient client=new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpGet request=new HttpGet("http://192.168.0.30/test.js");
HttpResponse response=client.execute(request);
HttpEntity entity=response.getEntity();
String json=EntityUtils.toString(entity);
JSONObject j1=new JSONObject(json);
JSONArray ja1=j1.getJSONArray("tag");
JSONObject j2=ja1.getJSONObject(Integer.parseInt(no.getText().toString())-1);
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, j2.getString("first_name").toString() , 0).show();
entity.consumeContent();
}
catch(Exception e)
{
e.getStackTrace();
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, e.toString() , 0).show();
}
}
});

Can I use AsyncTask inside ListFragment? or should I use AsyncTaskLoader?

I tried the code below and also tried the AsyncTaskLoader approach. The app crashes when I instantiate the AsyncTask. Pleas advise me on the best approach to load JSON in a list fragment inside tab host.
The code below is the tab fragment (I use action bar tabs in main activity):
public class TabTop extends ListFragment {
Context context = getActivity().getBaseContext();
String API_URL = "http://api.rottentomatoes.com/api/public/v1.0/movies/770672122/similar.json?apikey=crhhxb4accwwa6cy6fxrm8vj&limit=1";
ArrayList<Deal> deals;
DealsListAdapter adapter;
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
#SuppressWarnings("unused")
int a = 0;
return super.onCreateView(inflater, container, savedInstanceState);
}
#Override
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
GetTopDeals getTopDeals = new GetTopDeals(context);
getTopDeals.execute(API_URL);
super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
}
class GetTopDeals extends AsyncTask<String, Void, ArrayList<Deal>>{
ProgressDialog progressDialog;
public GetTopDeals(Context activity) {
this.progressDialog = new ProgressDialog(activity);
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(ArrayList<Deal> result) {
adapter = new DealsListAdapter(context, result);
setListAdapter(adapter);
super.onPostExecute(result);
}
#Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
progressDialog.setCancelable(true);
progressDialog.setProgress(0);
progressDialog.setMessage("loading Top deals...");
progressDialog.setProgressStyle(ProgressDialog.STYLE_SPINNER);
super.onPreExecute();
}
#Override
protected ArrayList<Deal> doInBackground(String... urls) {
String response = sendRequest(urls[0]); // make request for json
return processResponse(response); // parse the Json and return ArrayList to postExecute
}
private String sendRequest(String apiUrl) {
BufferedReader input = null; // get the json
HttpURLConnection httpCon = null; // the http connection object
StringBuilder response = new StringBuilder(); // hold all the data from the jason in string separated with "\n"
try {
URL url = new URL(apiUrl);
httpCon = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
if (httpCon.getResponseCode() != HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK) { // check for connectivity with server
return null;
}
input = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(httpCon.getInputStream())); // pull all the json from the site
String line;
while ((line = input.readLine()) != null) {
response.append(line + "\n");
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if (input != null) {
try {
input.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
if (httpCon != null) {
httpCon.disconnect();
}
}
return response.toString();
}
}
public ArrayList<Deal> processResponse(String response) {
try {
JSONObject responseObject = new JSONObject(response); // Creates a new JSONObject with name/value mappings from the JSON string.
JSONArray results = responseObject.getJSONArray("movies"); // Returns the value mapped by name if it exists and is a JSONArray.
deals = new ArrayList<Deal>();
for (int i = 0; i < results.length(); i++) { // in this loop i copy the json array to movies arraylist in order to display listView
JSONObject jMovie = results.getJSONObject(i);
int api_id = jMovie.getInt("id");
String name = jMovie.getString("title");
String content = jMovie.getString("synopsis");
JSONObject posters = jMovie.getJSONObject("posters");
String image_url = posters.getString("profile");
}
}catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return deals;
}
#Override
public void onStart() {
super.onStart();
}
#Override
public void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
Intent intent = new Intent(getActivity().getBaseContext(), DealInformation.class);
startActivity(intent);
super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);
}
}

Make your asynctask in his own file.
And when your asynctask is finish, implement OnPostExecute which is automatically call. Notify your adapter by a notifyDataSetChanged like that :
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(List<NewItem> list) {
Adapter.getListe().clear();
Adapter.getListe().addAll(list);
Adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}

thank you guys,
i want to post my answer. after some research i decided to go with AsyncTaskLoader.
this is my code
public class TabOurPicks extends ListFragment implements LoaderCallbacks<String[]> {
// when activity loads- onActivityCreated() calls the initLoader() who activate onCreateLoader()
#Override
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstance) {
super.onActivityCreated(savedInstance);
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(getActivity(), android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, new String[]{}));
getLoaderManager().initLoader(0, null,this).forceLoad();
}
// onCreateLoader instantiate the asynctaskloaser who work in bg
#Override
public RSSLoader onCreateLoader(int arg0, Bundle arg1) {
return new RSSLoader(getActivity()); //
}
// after bg process invoke onLoadFinished() who work in ui thread
#Override
public void onLoadFinished(Loader<String[]> loader, String[] data) {
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(getActivity(), android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, data
) );
}
#Override
public void onLoaderReset(Loader<String[]> arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
and this is the inner class for the loader:
static public class RSSLoader extends AsyncTaskLoader<String[]>
{
public RSSLoader(Context context) {
super(context);
}
#Override
public String[] loadInBackground() {
String url = "http://api.rottentomatoes.com/api/public/v1.0/movies/770672122/similar.json?apikey=crhhxb4accwwa6cy6fxrm8vj&limit=1";
String response = sendRequest(url);
return processResponse(response);
}
private String sendRequest(String url) {
BufferedReader input = null; // get the json
HttpURLConnection httpCon = null; // the http connection object
StringBuilder response = new StringBuilder(); // hold all the data from the jason in string separated with "\n"
try {
URL apiUrl = new URL(url);
httpCon = (HttpURLConnection) apiUrl.openConnection();
if (httpCon.getResponseCode() != HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK) { // check for connectivity with server
return null;
}
input = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(httpCon.getInputStream())); // pull all the json from the site
String line;
while ((line = input.readLine()) != null) {
response.append(line + "\n");
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if (input != null) {
try {
input.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
if (httpCon != null) {
httpCon.disconnect();
}
}
return response.toString();
}
private String[] processResponse(String response) {
String[] deals = null;
try {
JSONObject responseObject = new JSONObject(response); // Creates a new JSONObject with name/value mappings from the JSON string.
JSONArray results = responseObject.getJSONArray("movies"); // Returns the value mapped by name if it exists and is a JSONArray.
deals = new String[10];
for (int i = 0; i < 9; i++) { // in this loop i copy the json array to movies arraylist in order to display listView
JSONObject jMovie = results.getJSONObject(i);
String name = jMovie.getString("title");
deals[i] = name;
}
}catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return deals;
}
}
}

It doesn't matter if your asynctask has its own file. You just don't want your activity to extends asynctask as this would make your activity asynchronous - but this is impossible to do anyways due to java's double inheritance rule.
Based on the architecture of your app and your programming style the asyntask can be an inner class in the activity. on the PostExecute method make sure you have given data to your adapter and that the adapter is set to the list, then just run notifyDataSetChanged().
Assuming your asynctask is loading data from cache or the network you are on the right track with your approach to this.

How to make a TextView show a value from a AsynTask class

I have an AsynTask which retrieve data from a web service and with this data to be viewed on the UI. So, in my MainActivity, I have a textView.
This is the data I received from the webservice:
{"name":"ezio","country":"italy"}{"name":"fufu","country":"tutu"}{"name":"chikaka","country":"aceVentura"}
The problem is, I do not know how to set the textView with the value of 'result' from the ClientConnection class. When I run the application, the textView is empty.
public class ClientConnection extends AsyncTask {
public static final String URL = "http://192.168.0.15/test.php";
static JSONObject jObj = null;
public static String result = "";
#Override
protected String doInBackground(Void... voids) {
// public JSONObject connect(){
try{
HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet(URL);
HttpResponse response = httpClient.execute(httpGet);
int statusCode = response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode();
if (statusCode != HttpStatus.SC_OK) {
Log.e("HTTPStatus error:","Status not okay");
}
InputStream in = response.getEntity().getContent();
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in, "iso-8859-1"), 8);
StringBuilder str = new StringBuilder();
String line = null;
while((line = reader.readLine()) != null){
str.append(line + "\n");
}
in.close();
result = str.toString();
JSONObject jsonObject = convertToJson(result);
// jsonObject.get()
//result = jsonObject.getString("name");
//JSONArray google = jsonObject.getJSONArray("");
} catch (Exception e) {
//Toast toast = Toast.makeText(null, e.getMessage(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG);
Log.e("Error","don't know what exception though");
}
return result;
}
private JSONObject convertToJson(String test){
JSONArray clients = new JSONArray();
try{
jObj = new JSONObject(test);
}catch (JSONException e){
Log.e("JSON Parser", "Error parsing data" + e.toString());
}
return jObj;
}
public String getResult(){
return result;
}
public JSONObject getjObj(){
return jObj;
}
}
And this is the Main Activity
public class MyActivity extends Activity {
/**
* Called when the activity is first created.
*/
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
final TextView textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textViewTest);
ListView listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listView);
Button buttonConnect = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttonConnect);
final ClientJSONParsingActivity clientJSONParsingActivity = new ClientJSONParsingActivity();
buttonConnect.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
new ClientConnection().execute();
textView.setText(new ClientConnection().getResult());
}
});
}
}
Thank you for your help

You can display the result in the onPostExecute in the AsyncTask.

You should update textview in your asynctask. onPostExecute() method runs on UI thread
protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
textView.setText(result);
}

Pass the text view as an argument to the asynctask and set it in onPostExecute. On my mobile so no code, sorry ;-)

add this code under your doinbackground;
protected void onPostExecute(Long result) {
(find your text view here from the context where textview it is)
textView.setText(result);
}
