The question is published on by Tutorial Guruji team.
I am building a Java Android App with Webserver (Raspberry Pi 4 with LAMP) connection for the first time.
There’s a db table “products” which holds all products (Product_id, productName, price). I am retrieving a JSON array though a PHP API.
On App launch, I want to get all products and create Java Objects out of them, so I can dynamically display all products and prices in a Fragment in my app. Note that number and price of products might change, so I need this approach to dynamically create the products.
Since I have never done this before, I am stuck. I know how to get a response in my code, but what I need help with is to turn that response into Java Objects. Any advice how you usually would do that?
Here’s my JSON:
"status": 200,
"info": [
{
"Product_id": "1",
"product": "Coca Cola",
"price": "3"
},
{
"Product_id": "2",
"product": "Orange Juice",
"price": "2.5"
},
{
"Product_id": "3",
"product": "Apple Juice",
"price": "2.5"
},
{
"Product_id": "4",
"product": "Beer",
"price": "1.5"
},
{
"Product_id": "5",
"product": "Energy Drink",
"price": "3"
},
{
"Product_id": "6",
"product": "Gin Tonic",
"price": "5"
},
{
"Product_id": "7",
"product": "Water",
"price": "1"
},
{
"Product_id": "8",
"product": "Soda",
"price": "1"
},
{
"Product_id": "9",
"product": "Ticket",
"price": "30"
}
]
}
Answer
I just used Gson, as Manuel and Ibrahim suggested. Thank you!
