JSON parsing error, android? - android

I have the following JSON
{"DistributorDealerList":
{[{"Id":2,
"Name":"Distributor1",
"Dealer":
[{"Id":"1",
"Name":"Dealer1"},
{"Id":"2","
Name":"Dealer2"}]},
{"Id":4,"Name":"Distributor2",
"Dealer":
[{"Id":"3",
"Name":"Dealer3"}]}]}
When I am parsing the JSON getting the below exception
org.json.JSONException: Names must be strings, but [{"Name":"Distributor1",
"Dealer":[{"Name":"Dealer1","Id":"1"},{"Name":"Dealer2","Id":"2"}],"Id":2},
{"Name":"Distributor2","Dealer":[{"Name":"Dealer3","Id":"3"}],"Id":4}] is of
type org.json.JSONArray at character 195 of {"DistributorDealerList":
{[{"Id":2,"Name":"Distributor1","Dealer":[{"Id":"1","Name":"Dealer1"},
{"Id":"2","Name":"Dealer2"}]},{"Id":4,"Name":"Distributor2","Dealer":
[{"Id":"3","Name":"Dealer3"}]}]}
HERE is my parsing code:
try {
JSONObject jsonObj = new JSONObject(apiResult);
// Getting JSON Array node
JSONArray contacts = jsonObj
.getJSONArray("DistributorDealerList");
// looping through All Contacts
for (int i = 0; i < contacts.length(); i++) {
JSONObject c = contacts.getJSONObject(i);
String distId = c.getString("Id");
String distName = c.getString("Name");
JSONObject phone = c.getJSONObject("Dealer");
String distDealerID = phone.getString("Id");
String distDealerName = phone.getString("Name");
}
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
It says that I must supply the JSON Araay Name. Though I am supplying it but still the exception. What is wrong here.

This does solve my problem

You should change your json. Your json data's id parameters doesn't have " character;
Control your id paramerters.
{"DistributorDealerList":
{[{"Id":"2",
"Name":"Distributor1",
"Dealer":
[{"Id":"1",
"Name":"Dealer1"},
{"Id":"2","
Name":"Dealer2"}]},
{"Id":"4","Name":"Distributor2",
"Dealer":
[{"Id":"3",
"Name":"Dealer3"}]}]}

The json provided by you is wrong.
I have solved you error in your json string
You can get this right json string from : http://pastie.org/private/1xbyzgamzihswnpgtz15yw
You can verify this json string using this url :

I hope it was helpfull.

Parsing json code to a string in android using volley

i need help to parse this json code to actual strings using android volley. this is the json code:[{"name":"Tayo","0":"Tayo","thread_name":"Welcome","1":"Welcome","post":"Hi there,","2":"Hi there,","post_time":"Sunday","3":"Sunday"},{"name":"Pete","0":"Pete","thread_name":"Welcome","1":"Welcome","post":"Hi,am pete","2":"Hi,am pete","post_time":"Monday","3":"Monday"}].
I have tried other helps but not working. Thanks!
Remember:
if the .json content starts with { is considered as a Json Object.
if the .json content starts with [ is considered as a Json Array.
so you hava a JsonArray then you can parse your content like this way:
//Obtain the JsonArray
JSONArray jsonArray = new JSONArray(myJsonContent);
// Get the JsonObjects inside JsonArray
for(int i=0;i<jsonArray.length();i++){
JSONObject jsonobject = jsonArray.getJSONObject(i);
}
// strData is the json data received.
JSONArray jsonArray = new JSONArray(strData);
for (int i=0; i<jsonArray.length();i++){
JSONObject jsonObject = jsonArray.getJSONObject(i);
String name = jsonObject.optString("name");
String zero = jsonObject.optString("0");
String thread_name = jsonObject.optString("thread_name");
String one = jsonObject.optString("1");
String post = jsonObject.optString("post");
String two = jsonObject.optString("2");
String post_time = jsonObject.optString("post_time");
String three = jsonObject.optString("3");
//Just an example
arrayName.add(jsonObject.optString("name"));
}
You can even use array to store data instead of the string.

How to parse JSON using hardocoded values

I am trying to parse json but it gives me exception.
I hardcoded expected json as String like this
String stringJSON="[{\"value1\":\"ABC567123\",\"end_at\":\"08/28/2014 09:10:00\",\"start_at\":\"04/25/2016 09:20:00\"}]";
Valid json is like this
[
{
"value1": "ABC567123",
"end_at": "08/28/2014 09:10:00",
"start_at": "04/25/2016 09:20:00"
}
]
Now I am trying to parse json like below and getting exception.
JSONObject responseObJ;
try {
responseObJ= new JSONObject(stringJSON); //error here
if(responseObJ!=null){
//do something
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return null;
}
Please suggest what to do?
//hard coded it for temporary - json result is expected to exact same
stringJSON is contains JSONArray instead of JSONObject as root element in JSON String.
Either remove [] from start and end of String according to current code or if multiple JSONObject's is available in JSONArray then get JSONArray from stringJSON :
JSONArray responseObJ= new JSONArray(stringJSON);
[ ] they show that it has an array of objects in it so you can retrieve it like this
JSONArray jsonArray= new JSONArray(stringJSON);
for (int i = 0; i < jsonArray.length(); i++) {
JSONObject jsonObject = jObject.getJSONObject(i);
// here you can get the values of objects stored in the jsonObject
}
In your case you have only one object so you don't have to use loop instead you can get it like this
JSONArray jsonArray= new JSONArray(stringJSON);
JSONObject jsonObject = jObject.getJSONObject(0);
yes as you said its valid json but its JsonArray not JsonObject.
Just remove [] from start and end.
your string should be
String stringJSON="{\"value1\":\"ABC567123\",\"end_at\":\"08/28/2014 09:10:00\",\"start_at\":\"04/25/2016 09:20:00\"}";
or if you want to work with current string then use JsonArray instead of JsonObject
JSONArray responseObJ= new JSONArray(stringJSON);
Can you try Deserialize method of ScriptSerializer class? Like:
var scriptSerializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
var obj = scriptSerializer.Deserialize<Object>(str);

How parse json object and json array together

i have two situation of Json output .
one is data that found and i have a json array and a json object like this:
{"data":"yes"}[{"id":"10","number":"7","text":"text7","desc":"text7_again","user_code":"0"},{"id":"11","number":"8","text":"text8","desc":"text8_again","user_code":"1"}]
other situation is that data not found :
{"data":"no"}
just one json object.
how parse this data in android client for support two situtaion?
First, you should validate your json in http://jsonlint.com/ if you test it you will look that is a wrong json. So, for make it right, in your server your response should look something like this:
{"data":"yes","response":[{"id":"10","number":"7","text":"text7","desc":"text7_again","user_code":"0"},{"id":"11","number":"8","text":"text8","desc":"text8_again","user_code":"1"}]}
And in that case, in android
JSONObject jsonObj = new JSONObject(response);
if (jsonObj.getString("data").compareTo("yes") == 0) {
JSONArray jsonArray = jsonObj.getJSONArray("response");
//To-Do another code
}
and that's all
Here is a possible case: (you need to fix your json format)
Success -
string resultJSON =
{"success":true,
"data":[
{"id":"10","number":"7","text":"text7","desc":"text7_again","user_code":"0"},
{"id":"11","number":"8","text":"text8","desc":"text8_again","user_code":"1"}]}
Failed -
string resultJSON =
{"success":false}
Then
JSONObject jsonRoot = new JSONObject(resultJSON);
bool isSuccess = jsonRoot.getBoolean("success");
if (isSuccess) {
// do the array parser
for(int i=0; i<jsonData.lenght;i++) {
JSONObject jsonObj = jsonData.getJSONObject(i);
String id = jsonObj.getString("id"); // get the value of id
String desc = jsonObj.getString("desc"); // and so on...
}
}

data from a jsonobject in android

The below is called from a string url and returns a json object which has an json array inside, but something else is not working, can anyone show me how to access the data inside?
{"data":[{"8196":{"booking_id":"8150","client_id":"107","venue_id":null}}]
String jsonStr = "{\"data\":[{\"8196\":{\"booking_id\": \"8150\",\"client_id\": \"107\",\"venue_id\": null}}]}";
try {
JSONObject json = new JSONObject(jsonStr);
JSONArray array = json.getJSONArray("data");
for (int i = 0; i < array.length(); i++) {
JSONObject o = array.getJSONObject(i);
Iterator it = o.keys();
while (it.hasNext()) {
String name = (String) it.next();
o = o.getJSONObject(name);
int bookingId = o.getInt("booking_id");
int clientId = o.getInt("client_id");
int venueId = o.optInt("venue_id");
Log.v("TEST", String.format("Booking ID: %s -- Client ID: %s -- Venue ID: %s", bookingId, clientId, venueId));
}
}
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
I guess this is what you'll want. By the way, the JSON you posted is malformed. It's missing a } in the end.
You first need to decode the JSON string. The JSON sting you got in return is actually a serialized version of a JSON object.
You need to decode that string into a native Java Object.
There are a number of methods to this in Java. You can start by checking out the Java section at json.org.
I think the problem is that the value of key venue_id is null. You can replace null value with empty string(""), try it.

Simple Json parsing in android

I got the Json response. I am not able to get the values from the string.my string is
Json_response is
{"NameAllList":[{"Current":{"time":"2012-02-21T08:04:21","Name":"abcd"},
"Next":{"Name":"data1","StartTime":"2012-02-21T08:06:21"}},{"Current":{"time":"2012-02-21T08:14:21","Name":"defg"},
"Next":{"Name":"data2","StartTime":"2012-02-21T08:24:21"}},{"Current":{"time":"2012-02-21T08:28:21","Name":"ghij"},
"Next":{"Name":"data3","StartTime":"2012-02-21T08:34:21"}},{"Current":{"time":"2012-02-21T08:40:21","Name":"knmo"},
"Next":{"Name":"data4","StartTime":"2012-02-21T08:48:21"}}]}
and i tried this.
JSONObject jsonObj = new JSONObject(json_response);
JSONObject subObj = jsonObj.getJSONObject("Current");
String name_current =subObj.getString("Name");
but i am not able to get the value of "Name". what mistake i have done. provide the link to do the above parsing.
first of all, your JSON response is having NameAllList as a JSON Array of objects.
So you have to fetch JSON Array first, then you can fetch one-by-one object.
for example:
JSONObject jsonString = (new JSONObject(json_response_string));
JSONArray array = jsonString.getJSONArray("NameAllList");
for(int i=0; i<array.length(); i++)
{
// Retrieve Current object as such
JSONObject objCurrent = array.getJSONObject("Current");
// Retrieve Next object as such
JSONObject objNext = array.getJSONObject("Next");
}
You are not parsing json properly, so you are not able to fetch value of Name. Please note JSON Annotation [] represent JSONArray, and {} respresent JSONObject, so method to get current item's name is:
JSONObject jsonObj = new JSONObject(json_response_string);
JSONArray jsonArr=jsonObj.getJSONArray("NameAllList");
String Hora_name_current="";
for(int i=0;i<jsonArr.length();i++)
{
JSONObject obj=jsonArr.get(i);
try{
JSONObject subObj = obj.getJSONObject("Current");
Hora_name_current =subObj.getString("Name");
break;
}catch(JSONException ex)
{
}
}
looks like you're trying to use JSONObject when you should be using JSONArray for the second request. Try this:
JSONObject jsonString = (new JSONObject(json_response_string));
JSONArray array = jsonString.getJSONArray("NameAllList");
In your JSON return, "NameAllList is actually an array and needs to be handled as such. Once you set it to "array", you can then run a for loop and treat it like any other array in Java.
Let me know if that helps.
David
JSONObject jsonObj = new JSONObject(json_response_string);
JSONArray jsonArray = jsonObj.getJSONArrays("NameAllList");
