Rapid API Error code 500 with Retrofit2 Android

I am using spoonacular API for a recipe app project. The problem occurs when trying to making multiple GET requests to the API. The first request is a simple search with a query parameter. The resulting JSON of the first request contains a Recipe ID and I use that ID to make the second GET request , where the problem occurs.
The API responds only when I make the request the first time but after that it responds with error code 500 [Internal Server Error].
I have tested the GET request on Postman but there it works fine every time.
I'm new to working with API's and any help would be immensely appreciated.
This is my Retrofit Service Class
public class ServiceGenerator {
public static final String API_BASE_URL = "https://spoonacular-recipe-food-nutrition-v1.p.rapidapi.com/";
private static OkHttpClient.Builder httpClient = new OkHttpClient.Builder();
private static Retrofit.Builder builder =
new Retrofit.Builder()
.baseUrl(API_BASE_URL)
.addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create());
private static Retrofit retrofit = builder.build();
public static <S> S createService(Class<S> serviceClass, final String HostName, final String KeyVal)
{
if (!TextUtils.isEmpty(HostName) && !TextUtils.isEmpty(KeyVal))
{
HeadersInterceptor interceptor = new HeadersInterceptor(HostName,KeyVal);
if (!httpClient.interceptors().contains(interceptor))
{
httpClient.addInterceptor(interceptor);
builder.client(httpClient.build());
retrofit = builder.build();
}
}
return retrofit.create(serviceClass);
}
This is the Interceptor I am using to add Headers with the request.
public class HeadersInterceptor implements Interceptor {
private String HostName,KeyVal;
HeadersInterceptor(final String HostName,final String KeyVal) {
this.HostName = HostName;
this.KeyVal = KeyVal;
}
#NotNull
#Override
public Response intercept(#NotNull Chain chain) throws IOException {
Request original = chain.request();
Request.Builder builder = original.newBuilder()
.addHeader("X-RapidAPI-Host",HostName)
.addHeader("X-RapidAPI-Key",KeyVal);
Request request = builder.build();
return chain.proceed(request);
}
}
This is my Fragment which makes a search query and SUCCESSFULLY return results[Receipe ID's]
public class ListSelectedFragments extends Fragment {
private ProgressBar PreviewFragPrg;
private final String TAG = "ListSelectedFragment->";
private PreviewRecipeAdapter adapter;
private RecyclerView SelectedItemRV;
private ArrayList<RecipePreviewHolder> RecipePreviewsList = new ArrayList<>();

}
private void SetUpRecipePreviews(final Results[] mRES) {

SelectedItemRV.setAdapter(adapter);
for (Results mRE : mRES) {

mRE.getTitle(), ImgUrls);
Log.d("GlideLogs->","Rid->"+mRE.getId());

Log.d("GlideLogs->","Name->"+mRE.getTitle());
RecipePreviewsList.add(obj);
}
if(RecipePreviewsList.size()>1){
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
}
This is the Activity I transition to from my Fragment after clicking on a Recipe Card... Sending the Recipe ID in the extras. This function is called immediately after receiving intent extras.
private void RetrieveRecipeInfo(final int recipeID) {
String hostname = getResources().getString(R.string.spoonacular_host_name);
String key = getResources().getString(R.string.spoonacular_apikey_val);
final ServiceGenerator.GetDataService mService =
ServiceGenerator.createService(ServiceGenerator.GetDataService.class, hostname,key);
Call<RecipeDetailedInfo> call = mService.getInformation(185071);
Log.d(TAG , "Your GET Request:\n"+call.request().url().toString());
call.enqueue(new Callback<RecipeDetailedInfo>() {
#Override
public void onResponse(#NonNull Call<RecipeDetailedInfo> call, #NonNull Response<RecipeDetailedInfo> response)
{
Log.d(TAG,"OnResponse() Called\n");
Log.d(TAG,"Response = "+ response);
if(response.body()!=null) {
String obj = response.body().getSourceUrl();
Log.d(TAG,"Getting Recipe Info\n");
Log.d(TAG, String.valueOf(obj));
}
}
#Override
public void onFailure(#NonNull Call<RecipeDetailedInfo> call, #NonNull Throwable t){
}
});
}
Using postman I get the results every time but in my application the API stops responding after the first request. Is there a problem with the way I'm including headers?

So I finally got things working. The problem was with the HeadersInterceptor.java. I was using the Interceptor to add the Headers with the call but I found out a much easier way and it works like a charm.
Simply add #Header with the call to add headers without interceptor in Retrofit.
public interface GetDataService {
#GET("recipes/complexSearch?")
Call<RecipeInfoModel> getRecipes(
#Header("X-RapidAPI-Host") String api,
#Header("X-RapidAPI-Key") String apiKey,
#Query("query") String query_str);
}

Android Json parsing with retrofit

I'm using retrofit for the first time and I'm looking to parse some json data but I may have made a mistake initiating the network request on MainActivity. The App doesn't crush but it's not returning any values. it's a Gridlayout with an OnclickListener on each item and I'm only looking to return 2 values (name and Id ). The object currently has 3 items (name, id, and a List<>) this is the Full API end point "https://d17h27t6h515a5.cloudfront.net/topher/2017/May/59121517_baking/baking.json"
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements
CakeAdapter.CakeClickedListener {
RecyclerView mRecyclerView;
TextView mCakeName;
ImageView mCakeImage;
TextView mCakeId;
private List<CakesItem> mCakeList = new ArrayList<>();
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
mRecyclerView = findViewById(R.id.cake_list_recycler_view);
mRecyclerView.setHasFixedSize(true);
GridLayoutManager mGridLayoutManager = new GridLayoutManager(MainActivity.this, 2);
final CakeAdapter mCakeAdapter = new CakeAdapter(this);
mRecyclerView.setLayoutManager(mGridLayoutManager);
mRecyclerView.setAdapter(mCakeAdapter);
mCakeAdapter.getCakeData(mCakeList);
Retrofit retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder()
.baseUrl(Constants.BASE_URL)
.addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
.build();
BakingJsonApi bakingJsonApi = retrofit.create(BakingJsonApi.class);
Call<List<CakesItem>> call = bakingJsonApi.getCakes(Constants.JSON_PATH);
call.enqueue(new Callback<List<CakesItem>>() {
#Override
public void onResponse(Call<List<CakesItem>> call, Response<List<CakesItem>> response) {
if (!response.isSuccessful()) {
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Code: " + response.code(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
return;
}
List<CakesItem> cakeItem = response.body();
mCakeAdapter.getCakeData(cakeItem);
}
#Override
public void onFailure(Call<List<CakesItem>> call, Throwable t) {
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Unable to load data" + t.getMessage(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
}
public interface BakingJsonApi {
#GET("/topher/2017/May/59121517_baking/{json}")
Call<List<CakesItem>> getCakes(#Path("json") String path);
}
class Constants {
static final String BAKING_API = "https://d17h27t6h515a5.cloudfront.net/topher/2017/May/59121517_baking/baking.json";
static final String BASE_URL = "https://d17h27t6h515a5.cloudfront.net/";
static final String JSON_PATH = "baking.json";
}

Maybe update Recycler-Adapter can work. I also modified your condition.
call.enqueue(new Callback<List<CakesItem>>() {
#Override
public void onResponse(Call<List<CakesItem>> call, Response<List<CakesItem>> response) {
if (response.isSuccessful()) {
mCakeList = new ArrayList();
mCakeList.addAll(response.body());
mCakeAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
}
#Override
public void onFailure(Call<List<CakesItem>> call, Throwable t) {
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Unable to load data" + t.getMessage(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});

Try change this condition :
if (!response.isSuccessful()) {
To something like t:
if(response.isSuccessful()){
Modelcake respuesta = response.body();
listcake.addAll(respuesta.getcake()); //in getcake() you get what are you want in your model
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}else{
Log.e("API","onResponse"+response.errorBody());
}
With that should be work.

How to parse Simple XML format using retrofit? [duplicate]

I trying to get exchange rates from central bank. Unfortunately they don't have api, which can provide data in JSON. Only in XML. I'm using retrogit 2. I already created two classes, which describe xml, what I got from web site. But when I tried to get callback's response I got an 404 error code. Maybe my #GET method isn't correct? Please help me!
First XML fragment. it contains array of currencies on a date:
<ValCurs Date="14.01.2017" name="Foreign Currency Market">
<Valute ID="R01010">
<NumCode>036</NumCode>
<CharCode>AUD</CharCode>
<Nominal>1</Nominal>
<Name>Австралийский доллар</Name>
<Value>44,5156</Value>
</Valute>
And here is my interface:
public interface CbClient {
#GET("/XML_daily.asp")
Call<ValuteOnDate> getValuteOnDate();
}
And Service generator class:...
public class ServiceGenerator {
public static final String API_BASE_URL = "http://www.cbr.ru/scripts/";
private static OkHttpClient.Builder httpClient = new OkHttpClient.Builder();
private static Retrofit.Builder builder = new Retrofit.Builder()
.baseUrl(API_BASE_URL)
.addConverterFactory(SimpleXmlConverterFactory.create());
public static <S> S createService(Class<S> serviceClass) {
Retrofit retrofit = builder.client(httpClient.build()).build();
return retrofit.create(serviceClass);
}
}
And here is MainActivity class:...
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private static final String TAG = "TestRetrofitClien";
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
CbClient client = ServiceGenerator.createService(CbClient.class);
Call<ValuteOnDate> call = client.getValuteOnDate();
call.enqueue(new Callback<ValuteOnDate>() {
#Override
public void onResponse(Call<ValuteOnDate> call, Response<ValuteOnDate> response) {
try {
if (response.isSuccessful()) {
ValuteOnDate valuteOnDate = call.execute().body();
Log.i(TAG,"valuteOnDate: " + valuteOnDate);
ValuteOnDate valuteFromResponse = response.body();
Log.i(TAG,"valuteFromResponse: " + valuteFromResponse);
}else {
Log.e(TAG, "Retrofit Response: " + response.errorBody().string());
Log.d(TAG, "Error message: " + response.raw().message());
Log.d(TAG,"Error code: " + String.valueOf(response.raw().code()));
}
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e("LOG", "Exeption: " + e);
}
}
#Override
public void onFailure(Call<ValuteOnDate> call, Throwable t) {
}
});
}
}

Remove the leading slash in #GET("/XML_daily.asp")

XMLStreamException: ParseError at [row,col]:[1,1] ; only whitespace content allowed before start tag and not [

I've been trying and searching but can't seem to find a solution. I have this xml content:
<ArrayOfstring xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/2003/10/Serialization/Arrays">
<string>C201711241121.png</string>
<string>G201711241121.png</string>
<string>I201711241121.png</string>
<string>I201711241121.png</string>
</ArrayOfstring>
provided by a link.
I've added the INTERNET permission in Android Manifest:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
The class for the data I tried to implement:
#Root
#NamespaceList({
#Namespace(reference="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance", prefix="i"),
#Namespace(reference="http://schemas.microsoft.com/2003/10/Serialization/Arrays")
})
public class ArrayOfstring {
#ElementList
private List<String> string;
public void setString(List<String> string) {
this.string = string;
}
public List<String> getString(){
return string;
}
}
The interface for Retrofit:
public interface WebAPI {
#GET("api/values")
Call<ArrayOfstring> loadArrayOfstring();
}
The class with callbacks:
public class Controller implements Callback<ArrayOfstring> {
static final String BASE_URL = "http://xx.xxx.xxx.xx:xxxx/";
public void start() {
Retrofit retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder().baseUrl(BASE_URL)
.addConverterFactory(SimpleXmlConverterFactory.create()).build();
WebAPI vogellaAPI = retrofit.create(WebAPI.class);
Call<ArrayOfstring> call = vogellaAPI.loadArrayOfstring();
call.enqueue(this);
}
#Override
public void onResponse(Call<ArrayOfstring> call, Response<ArrayOfstring> response) {
if (response.isSuccessful()) {
ArrayOfstring resp = response.body();
if (resp == null){
Log.v("resp","is null");
return;
}
// System.out.println("Channel title: " + rss.getChannelTitle());
Log.v("response",resp.getString().size()+" size");
for (String str: resp.getString()){
Log.v("response", str+" string");
}
} else {
//System.out.println(response.errorBody());
Log.v("response", "error "+response.code());
}
}
#Override
public void onFailure(Call<ArrayOfstring> call, Throwable t) {
t.printStackTrace();
}
And I start the Controller so that the get request would begin in my activity, like this:
Controller ctrl = new Controller();
ctrl.start();
But the only result there seems to be
W/System.err: java.lang.RuntimeException: javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamException: ParseError at [row,col]:[1,1]
W/System.err: Message: only whitespace content allowed before start tag and not [
The link formed should be http://xx.xxx.xxx.xx:xxxx/api/values/

I know, I am a little late to the party. In case, if it helps, I am answering the question.
You need to pass "Accept", "Application/xml" header in the request.
I was facing the same issue, this worked for me.

Retrofit and Centralized Error Handling

Each request to the server may return error_code. I want to handle these error in one place
when I was using AsyncTask I had a BaseAsyncTask like that
public abstract class BaseAsyncTask<Params, Progress, Result> extends AsyncTask<Params, Progress, Result> {
protected Context context;
private ProgressDialog progressDialog;
private Result result;
protected BaseAsyncTask(Context context, ProgressDialog progressDialog) {
this.context = context;
this.progressDialog = progressDialog;
}
#Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
super.onPreExecute();
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(Result result) {
super.onPostExecute(result);
HttpResponse<ErrorResponse> response = (HttpResponse<ErrorResponse>) result;
if(response.getData().getErrorCode() != -1) {
handleErrors(response.getData());
}else
onResult(result);
}
private void handleErrors(ErrorResponse errorResponse) {
}
public abstract void onResult(Result result);
}
But, using retrofit each request has its error handling callback:
git.getFeed(user,new Callback<gitmodel>() {
#Override
public void success(gitmodel gitmodel, Response response) {
}
#Override
public void failure(RetrofitError error) {
}
});
}
});
How can I handle all errors in one place?

If you need to get some 'logic' error, then you need some Java logic since it's not a Retrofit feature so basically:
Create a Your implementation Callback that implements the Retrofit Callback
Create a base object that define the method 'isError'
Modify Retrofit RestAdapter in order to get your Callback instead of the Retrofit One
MyCallback.java
import android.util.Log;
import retrofit.Callback;
import retrofit.client.Response;
public abstract class MyCallback<T extends MyObject> implements Callback<T> {
#Override
public final void success(T o, Response response) {
if (o.isError()) {
// [..do something with error]
handleLogicError(o);
}
else {
handleSuccess(o, response);
}
}
abstract void handleSuccess(T o, Response response);
void handleLogicError(T o) {
Log.v("TAG", "Error because userId is " + o.id);
}
}
MyObject.java (the base class for all your objects you get from Retrofit)
public class MyObject {
public long id;
public boolean isError() {
return id == 1;
}
}
MyRealObject.java - a class that extends the base object
public class MyRealObject extends MyObject {
public long userId;
public String title;
public String body;
}
RetroInterface.java - the interface used by retrofit you should be familiar with
import retrofit.http.GET;
import retrofit.http.Path;
public interface RetroInterface {
#GET("/posts/{id}")
void sendGet(#Path("id") int id, MyCallback<MyRealObject> callback);
}
And finally the piece of code where you use all the logic
RestAdapter adapter = new RestAdapter.Builder()
.setEndpoint("http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com")
.build();
RetroInterface itf = adapter.create(RetroInterface.class);
itf.sendGet(2, new MyCallback<MyRealObject>() {
#Override
void handleSuccess(MyRealObject o, Response response) {
Log.v("TAG", "success");
}
#Override
public void failure(RetrofitError error) {
Log.v("TAG", "failure");
}
});
If you copy and paste this code, you'll get an error when you'll execute the itf.sendGet(1, new MyCallback..) and a success for itf.sendGet(2, new MyCallback...)

Not sure I understood it correctly, but you could create one Callback and pass it as a parameter to all of your requests.
Instead of:
git.getFeed(user,new Callback<gitmodel>() {
#Override
public void success(gitmodel gitmodel, Response response) {
}
#Override
public void failure(RetrofitError error) {
}
});
First define your Callback:
Callback<gitmodel> mCallback = new Callback<gitmodel>() {
#Override
public void success(gitmodel gitmodel, Response response) {
}
#Override
public void failure(RetrofitError error) {
// logic to handle error for all requests
}
};
Then:
git.getFeed(user, mCallback);

In Retrofit you can specify ErrorHandler to all requests.
public class ApiErrorHandler implements ErrorHandler {
#Override
public Throwable handleError(RetrofitError cause) {
//here place your logic for all errors
return cause;
}
}
Apply it to RestAdapter
RestAdapter.Builder()
.setClient(client)
.setEndpoint(endpoint)
.setErrorHandler(errorHandler)
.build();
I think that it is what you asked for.

In Retrofit2 you can't set an ErrorHandler with the method .setErrorHandler(), but you can create an interceptor to fork all possible errors centralised in one place of your application.
With this example you have one centralised place for your error handling with Retrofit2 and OkHttpClient. Just reuse the Retrofit object (retrofit).
You can try this standalone example with a custom interceptor for network and server errors. These both will be handled differently in Retrofit2, so you have to check the returned error code from the server over the response code (response.code()) and if the response was not successful (!response.isSuccessful()).
For the case that the user has no connection to the network or the server you have to catch an IOException of the method Response response = chain.proceed(chain.request()); and handle the network error in the catch block.
HttpLoggingInterceptor loggingInterceptor = new HttpLoggingInterceptor();
loggingInterceptor.setLevel(HttpLoggingInterceptor.Level.BODY);
OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient.Builder()
.addInterceptor(loggingInterceptor)
.addInterceptor(new Interceptor() {
#Override
public Response intercept(Chain chain) throws IOException {
try {
Response response = chain.proceed(chain.request());
if (!response.isSuccessful()) {
Log.e("tag", "Failure central - response code: " + response.code());
Log.e("tag", "central server error handling");
// Central error handling for error responses here:
// e.g. 4XX and 5XX errors
switch (response.code()) {
case 401:
// do something when 401 Unauthorized happened
// e.g. delete credentials and forward to login screen
// ...
break;
case 403:
// do something when 403 Forbidden happened
// e.g. delete credentials and forward to login screen
// ...
break;
default:
Log.e("tag", "Log error or do something else with error code:" + response.code());
break;
}
}
return response;
} catch (IOException e) {
// Central error handling for network errors here:
// e.g. no connection to internet / to server
Log.e("tag", e.getMessage(), e);
Log.e("tag", "central network error handling");
throw e;
}
}
})
.build();
Retrofit retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder()
.baseUrl("http://10.0.2.2:8000/api/v1/")
.client(client)
.addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
.build();
UserRepository backendRepository = retrofit.create(UserRepository.class);
backendRepository.getUser("userId123").enqueue(new Callback<UserModel>() {
#Override
public void onResponse(Call<UserModel> call, retrofit2.Response<UserModel> response) {
Log.d("tag", "onResponse");
if (!response.isSuccessful()) {
Log.e("tag", "onFailure local server error handling code:" + response.code());
} else {
// its all fine with the request
}
}
#Override
public void onFailure(Call<UserModel> call, Throwable t) {
Log.e("tag", "onFailure local network error handling");
Log.e("tag", t.getMessage(), t);
}
});
UserRepository example:
public interface UserRepository {
#GET("users/{userId}/")
Call<UserModel> getUser(#Path("userId") String userId);
}
UserModel example:
public class UserModel implements Parcelable {
#SerializedName("id")
#Expose
public String id = "";
#SerializedName("email")
#Expose
public String mail = "";
public UserModel() {
}
protected UserModel(Parcel in) {
id = in.readString();
mail = in.readString();
}
public static final Creator<UserModel> CREATOR = new Creator<UserModel>() {
#Override
public UserModel createFromParcel(Parcel in) {
return new UserModel(in);
}
#Override
public UserModel[] newArray(int size) {
return new UserModel[size];
}
};
#Override
public int describeContents() {
return 0;
}
#Override
public void writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags) {
dest.writeString(id);
dest.writeString(mail);
}
}

Fairly simply Retrofit custom error handling example. Is set up so that you don't need to do much work in the 'failure' handler of a retrofit call to get the user-visible error message to show. Works on all endpoints. There's lots of exception handling as our server folks like to keep us on our toes by sending all kinds of random stuff..!
// on error the server sends JSON
/*
{ "error": { "data": { "message":"A thing went wrong" } } }
*/
// create model classes..
public class ErrorResponse {
Error error;
public static class Error {
Data data;
public static class Data {
String message;
}
}
}
//
/**
* Converts the complex error structure into a single string you can get with error.getLocalizedMessage() in Retrofit error handlers.
* Also deals with there being no network available
*
* Uses a few string IDs for user-visible error messages
*/
private static class CustomErrorHandler implements ErrorHandler {
private final Context ctx;
public CustomErrorHandler(Context ctx) {
this.ctx = ctx;
}
#Override
public Throwable handleError(RetrofitError cause) {
String errorDescription;
if (cause.isNetworkError()) {
errorDescription = ctx.getString(R.string.error_network);
} else {
if (cause.getResponse() == null) {
errorDescription = ctx.getString(R.string.error_no_response);
} else {
// Error message handling - return a simple error to Retrofit handlers..
try {
ErrorResponse errorResponse = (ErrorResponse) cause.getBodyAs(ErrorResponse.class);
errorDescription = errorResponse.error.data.message;
} catch (Exception ex) {
try {
errorDescription = ctx.getString(R.string.error_network_http_error, cause.getResponse().getStatus());
} catch (Exception ex2) {
Log.e(TAG, "handleError: " + ex2.getLocalizedMessage());
errorDescription = ctx.getString(R.string.error_unknown);
}
}
}
}
return new Exception(errorDescription);
}
}
// When creating the Server...
retrofit.RestAdapter restAdapter = new retrofit.RestAdapter.Builder()
.setEndpoint(apiUrl)
.setLogLevel(retrofit.RestAdapter.LogLevel.FULL)
.setErrorHandler(new CustomErrorHandler(ctx)) // use error handler..
.build();
server = restAdapter.create(Server.class);
// Now when calling server methods, get simple error out like this:
server.postSignIn(login,new Callback<HomePageResponse>(){
#Override
public void success(HomePageResponse homePageResponse,Response response){
// Do success things!
}
#Override
public void failure(RetrofitError error){
error.getLocalizedMessage(); // <-- this is the message to show to user.
}
});
