My android app posts a string to web server using json and Http post and following code structure is used, but i want to pass few parameters to AsyncTask<> class through HttpAsyncTask().execute("from here"). can any one help me how to do it.. your help will be greatful for me thanks in advance
btn_send.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener(){
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
String strData = "Some String to post";
String strURL = "http://My-Url/";
String reqTimeOut = "30000";
String Code = "9990001" ;
String webRequest = SendWebRequest(strURL,strData, reqTimeOut, Code);// method to send HTTpPost request
WriteToFile(webRequest);//writing response to file
private String SendWebRequest(String urlStr, String Data,String reqTimeOut, String Code)
{
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
String result="";
try
{
/*
Some mandatory operations on Data
*/
// Here i want to pass parameters: url, reqTimeout, Data, text and value(for setting header) to POST method.
new HttpAsyncTask().execute(urlStr);
}catch(Exception e){}
return result;
}
public class HttpAsyncTask extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String> {
#Override
protected String doInBackground(String... params) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return POST(params[0]);
}
// onPostExecute displays the results of the AsyncTask.
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Data Sent!", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
private String POST(final String url, final String postData,String text, String value) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
InputStream inputStream ;
String result = "";
try {
// 1. create HttpClient
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
// 2. make POST request to the given URL
HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost(url);
MainActivity.this.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "2. url is "+url,
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
});
String json=postData ;
// 5. set json to StringEntity
StringEntity se = new StringEntity(json);
// 6. set httpPost Entity
httpPost.setEntity(se);
// HttpConnectionParams.setConnectionTimeout(null, 300000);
// 7. Set some headers to inform server about the type of the content
// httpPost.setHeader("Accept", "application/json");
httpPost.setHeader(text, value);
// 8. Execute POST request to the given URL
HttpResponse httpResponse = httpclient.execute(httpPost);
// 9. receive response as inputStream
inputStream = httpResponse.getEntity().getContent();
// 10. convert inputstream to string
if(inputStream != null){
result = convertInputStreamToString(inputStream);
}
else
result = "Did not work!";
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.d("InputStream", e.getLocalizedMessage());
}
// 11. return result
return result;
}
Write parameterised constructor for your HttpAsyncTask class. Add private field which you want to use in your HttpAsyncTask class. Then just instantiate the HttpAsyncTask class object with required parameters.
Your class structure would like:
public class HttpAsyncTask extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String> {
private String url,reqTimeout,data,text,value;
public HttpAsyncTask(String url,String reqTimeout,String data, String text, String value){
this.url = url;
this.reqTimeout = reqTimeout;
this.data = data;
this.text = text;
this.value = value;
}
#Override
protected String doInBackground(String... params) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return POST(params[0]);
}
// onPostExecute displays the results of the AsyncTask.
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Data Sent!", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
private String POST(final String url, final String postData,String text, String value) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
InputStream inputStream ;
String result = "";
try {
// 1. create HttpClient
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
// 2. make POST request to the given URL
HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost(url);
MainActivity.this.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "2. url is "+url,
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
});
String json=postData ;
// 5. set json to StringEntity
StringEntity se = new StringEntity(json);
// 6. set httpPost Entity
httpPost.setEntity(se);
// HttpConnectionParams.setConnectionTimeout(null, 300000);
// 7. Set some headers to inform server about the type of the content
// httpPost.setHeader("Accept", "application/json");
httpPost.setHeader(text, value);
// 8. Execute POST request to the given URL
HttpResponse httpResponse = httpclient.execute(httpPost);
// 9. receive response as inputStream
inputStream = httpResponse.getEntity().getContent();
// 10. convert inputstream to string
if(inputStream != null){
result = convertInputStreamToString(inputStream);
}
else
result = "Did not work!";
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.d("InputStream", e.getLocalizedMessage());
}
// 11. return result
return result;
}
And then when you call the execute method of HttpAsyncTask class, you should call it in following way:
HttpAsyncTask httpAsyncTask = new HttpAsyncTask(url,reqTimeout,data, text,value);
httpAsyncTask().execute(urlStr);

I have web services and I want to create a class that should takes an email and password from server after authentication in hash table, and then saves email and password in shared preferences.
Try this class to call webservice in your app, i am sharing get and post both methods you can use any one as per your need.
public class CallService {
String url;
HttpEntity str1;
String str;
Context context;
public Context getContext() {
return context;
}
public void setContext(Context context) {
this.context = context;
}
public CallService(String url1) {
this.url = url1;
}
public String getResponceWithPost() {
try {
HttpParams httpParameters = new BasicHttpParams();
HttpConnectionParams.setConnectionTimeout(httpParameters,5000000);
HttpConnectionParams.setSoTimeout(httpParameters,500000);
HttpConnectionParams.setTcpNoDelay(httpParameters,true);
HttpClient hc = new DefaultHttpClient(httpParameters);
HttpPost post= new HttpPost (url);
HttpResponse rp = hc.execute(post);
// //////////////
if (rp.getStatusLine().getStatusCode() == HttpStatus.SC_OK) {
str = EntityUtils.toString(rp.getEntity());
Log.e("Calling service", str);
return str;
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return str;
}
public int getResponceWithGet() {
int code = 0;
try {
HttpClient hc = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpGet get = new HttpGet(url);
HttpResponse rp = hc.execute(get);
code= rp.getStatusLine().getStatusCode();
return code;
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e("calling service", e.toString());
e.printStackTrace();
}
catch(Exception e)
{
Log.e("calling service", e.toString());
}
return code;
}}
this will return response from server like email password or other details.
and you can save these details in sharedpreference .
for shared preference follow this -
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/data/data-storage.html#pref
and in your activity call your url using my call service class like this-
declare your hashTable in activity like this
Hashtable hashtable = new Hashtable();
call this method
new checkForLogin().execute();
and your async class
class checkForLogin extends AsyncTask<Void, Void,String>
{
#Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
progress= ProgressDialog.show(LoginScreen.this,"Authenticating !","Please Wait");
}
#Override
protected String doInBackground(Void... params) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Parse your json data here that will be in data
CallService cl2=new CallService("your server url here");
Log.e("login url is",""+Urls.loginurl);
data=cl2.getResponceWithPost();
Log.e("server response data","data = "+data);
hashtable.put(“email″, data.getString("email"));
hashtable.put(“pass″, data.getString("pass"));
return null;
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onPostExecute(result);
progress.dismiss();
}
i hope this ll help you.

Hello friends this is my code in this i have mArrayListReviewDetails Arraylist which include size and as per that size i want to get user name which i call next web service as below ,,right now this arraylist size is 11 but when i call this service it will get only 2 data and progress dialog progress continueouly so how can i solve it any idea?
you just make change in doINBackground fun. Take
ServiceHandler sh = new ServiceHandler(); line inside for loop
#Override
protected Void doInBackground(Void... params) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
// Making a request to url and getting response
System.out.println("Size mArrayListReviewDetails "+mArrayListReviewDetails.size());
for (int i = 0; i < mArrayListReviewDetails.size(); i++) {
ServiceHandler sh = new ServiceHandler();
String jsonStr = sh.makeServiceCall("https://graph.facebook.com/"+mArrayListReviewDetails.get(i).getFromid(), ServiceHandler.GET);
System.out.println("JSON OP USer"+"{"+"\"User\""+":"+jsonStr.toString()+"}");
try {
JSONObject jsonObj = new JSONObject(jsonStr);
System.out.println("Name "+jsonObj.getString("name"));
} catch (Exception e) {
// TODO: handle exception
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
return null;
}
You could pass your parameters to the async task:
public class GetUserDetail extends AsyncTask<String, Void, Void> {
// ...
#Override
protected Void doInBackground(String... usernames) {
for (int i = 0; i < usernames.length; i++) {
String jsonStr = sh.makeServiceCall("https://graph.facebook.com/" + usernames[i], ServiceHandler.GET);
// ...
}
}
}
Of course, instead of String, feel free to pass your own type. To call the async task:
new GetUserDetail().execute( "test1", "test2" );
Other option is to have each async task perform exactly one single webservice call and create many of them. Advantage: on Android 3.0+, the task executions will be done in parralel.
I think instead of using that...you can use "Volley" library...it's simple and having build-in functionality like;
Request queuing and prioritization
Effective request cache and memory management
Extensibility and customization of the library to our needs
Cancelling the requests
volley reference
volley tutorial
I want to create an class file for Async task operation and from creating the object of that class file i want to access these method of async task with no of different class files with different parameters.
Methods of Async task include:-
OnPreExecute()-Want to start progress dialog same for each class.
doInbackground()-Want to perform background operation(like getting data from server) means passing parameter different for each class.
onPostExecute()-Dismiss the progress dialog and update the UI differnt for each class.
Now I'm writing the async task in my every class as inner class like the following:-
class loaddata extends AsyncTask<String, String, String> {
#Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
super.onPreExecute();
pDialog = new ProgressDialog(AddNewLineitem.this);
pDialog.setMessage("Loading Data. Please wait...");
pDialog.setIndeterminate(false);
pDialog.setCancelable(true);
pDialog.setOnCancelListener(new OnCancelListener() {
#Override
public void onCancel(DialogInterface dialog) {
}
});
pDialog.show();
}
#Override
protected String doInBackground(String... params) {
try {
List<NameValuePair> params1 = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
JSONObject json = jparser.makeHttpRequest(url_foralldropdowns,
"GET", params1);
compoment = json.getJSONArray(COMPONENT_CODE);
for (int i = 1; i < compoment.length(); i++) {
JSONObject c = compoment.getJSONObject(i);
String code = c.getString(CODE);
list_compoment.add(code);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
protected void onPostExecute(String file_url) {
loadSpinnerData();
pDialog.dismiss();
}
}
And JSON parser class is as follows:-
public class JSONParser {
static InputStream is = null;
static JSONObject jObj = null;
static String json = "";
// constructor
public JSONParser() {
}
// function get json from url
// by making HTTP POST or GET mehtod
public JSONObject makeHttpRequest(String url, String method,
List<NameValuePair> params) {
// Making HTTP request
try {
// check for request method
if (method == "POST") {
// request method is POST
// defaultHttpClient
DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost(url);
httpPost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(params));
HttpResponse httpResponse = httpClient.execute(httpPost);
HttpEntity httpEntity = httpResponse.getEntity();
is = httpEntity.getContent();
} else if (method == "GET") {
// request method is GET
DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
String paramString = URLEncodedUtils.format(params, "utf-8");
url += "?" + paramString;
HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet(url);
HttpResponse httpResponse = httpClient.execute(httpGet);
HttpEntity httpEntity = httpResponse.getEntity();
is = httpEntity.getContent();
}
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
try {
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
is, "iso-8859-1"), 8);
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
String line = null;
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
sb.append(line + "\n");
}
is.close();
json = sb.toString();
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("Buffer Error", "Error converting result " + e.toString());
}
// try parse the string to a JSON object
try {
jObj = new JSONObject(json);
} catch (JSONException e) {
Log.e("JSON Parser", "Error parsing data " + e.toString());
}
// return JSON String
return jObj;
}
}
And in oncreate() I call this and it works fine:-
new loaddata().execute();
We can reuse Aysntask with different parameters. For this
1.Create an Interface so that we can reuse,pass and receive parameters
public interface BackgroundListener {
public Object[] startBackgroundWork(Object... objs);
public void endBackgroundWork(Object... objs);
public void beforeBackgroundWork();
}
2.Create a Class Extending Asyntask
BackgroundHandler.java
import android.os.AsyncTask;
public class BackgroundHandler extends AsyncTask<Object, Object[], Object[]>{
BackgroundListener backgroundListener;
public void setBackgroundListener(BackgroundListener aBackgroundListener)
{
this.backgroundListener = aBackgroundListener;
}
#Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
backgroundListener.beforeBackgroundWork();
}
#Override
protected Object[] doInBackground(Object... objs) {
return backgroundListener.startBackgroundWork(objs);
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(Object result[]) {
backgroundListener.endBackgroundWork(result);
}
}
Using in Activity
A.java
Class A extends Activity implements BackgroundListener
{
...onCreate()
{
BackgroundHandler backgroundHandler = new BackgroundHandler()
backgroundHandler.setBackgroundListner(this);
backgroundHandler.execute(new Object[]{url1});//pass any number of parameters of any object type
// show loading bar
}
public void beforeBackgroundWork()
{
pDialog = new ProgressDialog(A.this);
pDialog.setMessage("Loading Data. Please wait...");
pDialog.setIndeterminate(false);
.....
}
public Object[] startBackgroundWork(Object... objs)
{
// access and type convert the passed parameters like objs[0], objs[1]
//.... some time consuming stuff
//.... some time consuming stuff
String url_foralldropdowns = objs[0].toString();
List<NameValuePair> params1 = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
JSONObject json = jparser.makeHttpRequest(url_foralldropdowns,
"GET", params1);
JSONArray compoment = json.getJSONArray(COMPONENT_CODE);
//Create new list_compoment here instead of global declaration
for (int i = 1; i < compoment.length(); i++) {
JSONObject c = compoment.getJSONObject(i);
String code = c.getString(CODE);
list_compoment.add(code);
}
retrun new Object[]{list_compoment};
}
public void endBackgroundWork(Object ...obj)
{
pDialog.dismiss();// hide loading bar
//access resultant parameters like objs[0], objs[1]
//user list_component will be in obj[0]
}
}
Similarly we can reuse in B.java
Class B extends Activity implements BackgroundListener
{
...
....
public void beforeBackgroundWork()
{
pDialog = new ProgressDialog(B.this);
pDialog.setMessage("Loading Data. Please wait...");
pDialog.setIndeterminate(false);
.....
}
public Object[] startBackgroundWork(Object... objs)
{
// access and type convert the passed parameters like objs[0], objs[1]
//.... some time consuming stuff
//.... some time consuming stuff
String url2 = objs[0].toString();
List<NameValuePair> params1 = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
JSONObject json = jparser.makeHttpRequest(url2,
"GET", params1);
JSONArray compoment = json.getJSONArray(COMPONENT_CODE);
//Create new list_compoment here instead of global declaration
for (int i = 1; i < compoment.length(); i++) {
JSONObject c = compoment.getJSONObject(i);
String code = c.getString(CODE);
list_compoment.add(code);
}
retrun new Object[]{list_compoment};
}
public void endBackgroundWork(Object ...obj)
{
pDialog.dismiss();
.....
//user list_component will be in obj[0]
}
}
Asyntask is just a class like others. Apart from the main inhertited methods of AsyncTask you can create your own methods, constructor etc. So just create a separate class in separate file. pass the context as parameter of the constructor. you can pass other values also to define the tasks.
class Loaddata extends AsyncTask<String, String, String> {
public Loaddata( pass the params){
... set the params
}
#Override
protected void onPreExecute() {
super.onPreExecute();
pDialog.setMessage("Loading Data. Please wait...");
pDialog.show();
}
protected void onPostExecute() {
// pDialog.dismiss();
}
#Override
protected String doInBackground(String... params) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return null;
}
}
Here I am trying to retrieve the response from the server and display it, but I am failed to do so, the response text does not appear in my text view, insetead the default value of the string does, may I ask how can I achieve my goal. And why my code cannot finish the task.
Here is my android program:
public class Chico extends Activity {
GrabURL grab;
TextView mRespond;
String line;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
//create the activity
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
//set up the layout
setContentView(R.layout.activity_chico);
mRespond = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.Respond);
mRespond.setVisibility(View.GONE);
grab = new GrabURL();
line = "line";
//set up the button for check in
Button btnin = (Button) findViewById(R.id.inbutton);
btnin.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
//set the values
grab.onPreExecute("TechID", Build.SERIAL);
grab.onPreExecute("Type", "Checkin");
//set the destination and send the request
grab.execute(new String[]{"http://192.168.1.150/Me/testing.php"});
//close the activity
mRespond.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
mRespond.setText(line);
//finish();
}
});
}
private class GrabURL extends AsyncTask<String, Void, Void>{
//ArrayList object for storing the string pairs
ArrayList<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs;
public GrabURL() {
//constructor of the class
nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
}
protected void onPreExecute(String key, String value) {
//store the pair of values into the ArrayList
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair(key,value));
}
#Override
protected Void doInBackground(String... urls) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
//Operation being executed in another thread
try{
//set up the type of HTTPClient
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
//set up the location of the server
HttpPost post = new HttpPost(urls[0]);
//translate form of pairs to UrlEncodedFormEntity
UrlEncodedFormEntity ent = new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs,HTTP.UTF_8);
//set up the entity being sent by post method
post.setEntity(ent);
//execute the url and post the values
HttpResponse responsePOST = client.execute(post);
HttpEntity resEntity = responsePOST.getEntity();
line = EntityUtils.toString(resEntity);
} catch (Exception e) {
//catch the exception
line = "Can't connect to server";
}
return null;
}
protected void onPostExecute(Void unused) {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Value updated", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
}
And here is the php file, it just prints a line:
<?php
print "testing";
?>
Move this code to your AsyncTask's onPostExecute():
...
mRespond.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
mRespond.setText(line);
Please can anyone tell me how to make an http post to work in the background with AsyncTask and how to pass the parameters to the AsyncTask? All the examples that I found were not clear enough for me and they were about downloading a file.
I'm running this code in my main activity and my problem is when the code sends the info to the server the app slows down as if it is frozen for 2 to 3 sec's then it continues to work fine until the next send. This http post sends four variables to the server (book, libadd, and time) the fourth is fixed (name)
Thanks in advance
public void SticketFunction(double book, double libadd, long time){
Log.v("log_tag", "%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% SticketFunction()");
//HttpClient
HttpClient nnSticket = new DefaultHttpClient();
//Response handler
ResponseHandler<String> res = new BasicResponseHandler();
HttpPost postMethod = new HttpPost("http://www.books-something.com");
try {
List<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>(5);
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("book", book+""));
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("libAss", libass+""));
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("Time", time+""));
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("name", "jack"));
//Encode and set entity
postMethod.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs, HTTP.UTF_8));
//Execute
//manSticket.execute(postMethod);
String response =Sticket.execute(postMethod, res).replaceAll("<(.|\n)*?>","");
if (response.equals("Done")){
//Log.v("log_tag", "!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SticketFunction got a DONE!");
}
else Log.v("log_tag", "!!!!!!!?????????? SticketFunction Bad or no response: " + response);
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
//Log.v("log_tag", "???????????????????? SticketFunction Client Exception");
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
//Log.v("log_tag", "???????????????????? IO Exception");
}
}
}
At first,
You put a class like following:
public class AsyncHttpPost extends AsyncTask<String, String, String> {
interface Listener {
void onResult(String result);
}
private Listener mListener;
private HashMap<String, String> mData = null;// post data
/**
* constructor
*/
public AsyncHttpPost(HashMap<String, String> data) {
mData = data;
}
public void setListener(Listener listener) {
mListener = listener;
}
/**
* background
*/
#Override
protected String doInBackground(String... params) {
byte[] result = null;
String str = "";
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost post = new HttpPost(params[0]);// in this case, params[0] is URL
try {
// set up post data
ArrayList<NameValuePair> nameValuePair = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
Iterator<String> it = mData.keySet().iterator();
while (it.hasNext()) {
String key = it.next();
nameValuePair.add(new BasicNameValuePair(key, mData.get(key)));
}
post.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePair, "UTF-8"));
HttpResponse response = client.execute(post);
StatusLine statusLine = response.getStatusLine();
if(statusLine.getStatusCode() == HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK){
result = EntityUtils.toByteArray(response.getEntity());
str = new String(result, "UTF-8");
}
}
catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
catch (Exception e) {
}
return str;
}
/**
* on getting result
*/
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
// something...
if (mListener != null) {
mListener.onResult(result)
}
}
}
Now.
You just write some lines like following:
HashMap<String, String> data = new HashMap<String, String>();
data.put("key1", "value1");
data.put("key2", "value2");
AsyncHttpPost asyncHttpPost = new AsyncHttpPost(data);
asyncHttpPost.setListener(new AsyncHttpPost.Listener(){
#Override
public void onResult(String result) {
// do something, using return value from network
}
});
asyncHttpPost.execute("http://example.com");
First i would not recommend do a Http request in a AsyncTask, you better try a Service instead. Going back to the issue on how to pass parameter into an AsyncTask when you declared it you can defined each Object class of the AsyncTask like this.
public AsyncTask <Params,Progress,Result> {
}
so in your task you should go like this
public MyTask extends<String,Void,Void>{
public Void doInBackground(String... params){//those Params are String because it's declared like that
}
}
To use it, it's quite simple
new MyTask().execute("param1","param2","param3")
