I want to make an application in android where i want to pull the Blog of the site (http://dekora.com/blog/) which is in wordpress.
But i don't have any idea how to pull the blogs from wordpress, is there any api or source code available. i have gone through wordpress website and tried to understand the api of Android but dint get it well.
So i am just wondering to find some proper clue. Can any body help what approach should i take
to pull the blogs from wordpress.
Why not use the RSS-Feed? Its a standard-api an there is ton of information about this. The URL of the feed is http://dekora.com/blog/?feed=rss2 and IBM got a nice tutorial on parsing and using RSS on its homepage
Wordpress-Java library can be useful for you :
wordpress-java
Let us know if you try and successfully use it.

am new to the android/coding world , i have learned android basics and now i got into networking , i have a somehow clear idea of parsing json data from websites that has an api
so for my learning project i want to implement the whole subscene website in android app in my own way from the search engine to downloading srt files.... so after googling it i came across the jsoup library but online articles and jsoup.org documentation didnt help cuz am new to the whole thing and the concept of elements,classes,tables,nodes .... is confusing for me so :
is there an api for the subscene website ?
do i have to learn html and dom in order to use jsoup ?
is there any beginner friendly tutorial to learn jsoup ?
is there any better way to get real time changing data from websites with no api ?
dont mind my badly asked question cuz am new to asking questions online too
Google it
Absolutely
with no html knowledge? Very unlikely
No
I'd suggest you start with a simpler project :)
I am using the Parse Server back-end with android studio and have read its developer guide; however, I'm still not totally getting it, specifically with retrieving objects. If someone could help clearing or provide a link to a good tutorial it would be great.(I learn the best through examples). I have searched YouTube and most tutorials aren't very good or only cover minimal topics on using parse. Thank you.
you can find an excellent android developer guide in here:
http://parseplatform.github.io/docs/android/guide/
During the past years i read a lot of docs from other vendor and Parse have the best docs that i ever see. There docs contain explanations with a lot of code snippets .

simply another view for my website
Thank You
It depends of the kind of web. For example for a blog (Wordpress, Blogger), a social network (facebook, twitter, etc), you can use json objects to interactuate with your web.
I had a simple app that retrieve data from a wordpress blog, you can take a look to learn something about managing json objects and http requests.
This is the link: Material App, Wordpress Blog
You can use my code as a reference: Android XML Multi-Node Reading Using Current Date.
The only difference is that I used XML instead of JSON, but the main concept behind both is pretty much the same. Also I recommend using Async.
As for learning Android API, I would go to Youtube tutorials as well as: https://developer.android.com/guide/index.html
I need to access Wordpress posts (Outside) from my Android Application. I need to display somehow the last post ( Maybe Titles in a listview), and edit some of them by entering new text, picture and video.
I came across many explanations about how to do that in php. But since I'm working with Andoird. I need it in Java
Any idea how to do that ??
I'm not familiar with WordPress, but I can suggest you to start with RSS-parsing of your posts (WordPress provides RSS, right?).
One way of doing it would be to access the WordPress database. I am not 100% familiar with WordPress but I think the posts are stored in the table wp_posts. You should also be able to find, access, and edit any data within.

Janusz is correct, but if you want a good intro into how Google envisions REST being used in Android see this presentation. When you're done follow alexanderblom's link on this question.
