Mapping a nested JSON response obtained using RxJava and Retrofit

I starting out with RxJava and Retrofit and wanted to create a simple app to show a list of 100 cryptocurrencies.
I am making an api call which results in something like this :
{
"Response": "Success",
"Message": "Coin list succesfully returned!",
"BaseImageUrl": "https://www.cryptocompare.com",
"BaseLinkUrl": "https://www.cryptocompare.com",
"Data": {
"LTC": {
"Id": "3808",
"Url": "/coins/ltc/overview",
"ImageUrl": "/media/19782/ltc.png",
"Name": "LTC",
"CoinName": "Litecoin",
"FullName": "Litecoin (LTC)",
"Algorithm": "Scrypt",
"ProofType": "PoW",
"SortOrder": "2"
}
...
},
"Type": 100
}
But all I want from this is "Response" and "Data". Since it is not practical to create a 100 different model classes for each coin, I want to store information of all the coins in a common class named Coin which would look something like this :
public class Coins {
#SerializedName("Algorithm")
private String mAlgorithm;
#SerializedName("CoinName")
private String mCoinName;
#SerializedName("FullName")
private String mFullName;
#SerializedName("FullyPremined")
private String mFullyPremined;
#SerializedName("Id")
private String mId;
#SerializedName("ImageUrl")
private String mImageUrl;
#SerializedName("Name")
private String mName;
#SerializedName("PreMinedValue")
private String mPreMinedValue;
#SerializedName("ProofType")
private String mProofType;
#SerializedName("SortOrder")
private String mSortOrder;
#SerializedName("Sponsored")
private Boolean mSponsored;
#SerializedName("Symbol")
private String mSymbol;
#SerializedName("TotalCoinSupply")
private String mTotalCoinSupply;
#SerializedName("TotalCoinsFreeFloat")
private String mTotalCoinsFreeFloat;
#SerializedName("Url")
private String mUrl;
public String getAlgorithm() {
return mAlgorithm;
}
public void setAlgorithm(String Algorithm) {
mAlgorithm = Algorithm;
}
public String getCoinName() {
return mCoinName;
}
public void setCoinName(String CoinName) {
mCoinName = CoinName;
}
public String getFullName() {
return mFullName;
}
public void setFullName(String FullName) {
mFullName = FullName;
}
public String getFullyPremined() {
return mFullyPremined;
}
public void setFullyPremined(String FullyPremined) {
mFullyPremined = FullyPremined;
}
public String getId() {
return mId;
}
public void setId(String Id) {
mId = Id;
}
public String getImageUrl() {
return mImageUrl;
}
public void setImageUrl(String ImageUrl) {
mImageUrl = ImageUrl;
}
public String getName() {
return mName;
}
public void setName(String Name) {
mName = Name;
}
public String getPreMinedValue() {
return mPreMinedValue;
}
public void setPreMinedValue(String PreMinedValue) {
mPreMinedValue = PreMinedValue;
}
public String getProofType() {
return mProofType;
}
public void setProofType(String ProofType) {
mProofType = ProofType;
}
public String getSortOrder() {
return mSortOrder;
}
public void setSortOrder(String SortOrder) {
mSortOrder = SortOrder;
}
public Boolean getSponsored() {
return mSponsored;
}
public void setSponsored(Boolean Sponsored) {
mSponsored = Sponsored;
}
public String getSymbol() {
return mSymbol;
}
public void setSymbol(String Symbol) {
mSymbol = Symbol;
}
public String getTotalCoinSupply() {
return mTotalCoinSupply;
}
public void setTotalCoinSupply(String TotalCoinSupply) {
mTotalCoinSupply = TotalCoinSupply;
}
public String getTotalCoinsFreeFloat() {
return mTotalCoinsFreeFloat;
}
public void setTotalCoinsFreeFloat(String TotalCoinsFreeFloat) {
mTotalCoinsFreeFloat = TotalCoinsFreeFloat;
}
public String getUrl() {
return mUrl;
}
public void setUrl(String Url) {
mUrl = Url;
}
}
So finally my mapped response class would look like :
public class CoinsListResponse {
private boolean success;
private List<Coins> coinsList;
public boolean isSuccess() {
return success;
}
public void setSuccess(boolean success) {
this.success = success;
}
public List<Coins> getCoinsList() {
return coinsList;
}
public void setCoinsList(List<Coins> coinsList) {
this.coinsList = coinsList;
}
}
I haven't added #Serialized notations because I don't know what key to annotate it with.
My Retrofit service interface has a method to return the results to this map :
public interface CoinService {
#NonNull
#POST
Observable<CoinsListResponse> getCoinList();
}
Since, I am a starter with Retrofit and RxAndroid, there might be a better method to do this, which I am not aware of. If so, please mention that as well !! I am trying to get my head around this for days but couldn't find any answer on SO as well.
Please Help !!

Change
private List<Coins> coinsList;
to
#SerializedName("Data")
private Map<String, Coins> coinsByName;
You can then either just use coinsByName.values() or call e.g. coinsByName.get("LTC")

How to deal with JSON response with same key "Value" its String and Array with Retrofit

In JSON Response there is key "Value" but its response have multiple forms like String and Array with same key "Value".
So how to make Retrofit model class to maintain String and Array with same key "Value".
{
"RespCode":"SUCCESS",
"RespText":"Transaction Details",
"Data":{
"Record":[
{
"group_title":"Seller Information",
"group_values":[
{
"key":"Listing Agent",
"value":[
{
"key":"Agent First Name",
"value":"Myks"
},
{
"key":"Agent Last Name",
"value":"Joe"
},
{
"key":"Company",
"value":"bdfjdlfdf"
},
{
"key":"Phone",
"value":"712.336.4967"
},
{
"key":"Email",
"value":"abc#gmail.com"
}
]
},
{
"key":"Cell Phone",
"value":"012.345.6789"
},
{
"key":"Email",
"value":"balt#gmail.com.com"
},
{
"key":"Preferred Contact Method",
"value":"Phone"
}
]
},
]
}
}

Just use an arraylist that contains multiple hashmaps maybe? Or... You have to define a pojo that has list of arrays with type map or something to that effect

Check this:
public class ModelBean {
private String RespCode;
private String RespText;
private DataBean Data;
public String getRespCode() {
return RespCode;
}
public void setRespCode(String RespCode) {
this.RespCode = RespCode;
}
public String getRespText() {
return RespText;
}
public void setRespText(String RespText) {
this.RespText = RespText;
}
public DataBean getData() {
return Data;
}
public void setData(DataBean Data) {
this.Data = Data;
}
public static class DataBean {
private List<RecordBean> Record;
public List<RecordBean> getRecord() {
return Record;
}
public void setRecord(List<RecordBean> Record) {
this.Record = Record;
}
public static class RecordBean {
private String group_title;
private List<GroupValuesBean> group_values;
public String getGroup_title() {
return group_title;
}
public void setGroup_title(String group_title) {
this.group_title = group_title;
}
public List<GroupValuesBean> getGroup_values() {
return group_values;
}
public void setGroup_values(List<GroupValuesBean> group_values) {
this.group_values = group_values;
}
public static class GroupValuesBean {
private String key;
private List<ValueBean> value;
public String getKey() {
return key;
}
public void setKey(String key) {
this.key = key;
}
public List<ValueBean> getValue() {
return value;
}
public void setValue(List<ValueBean> value) {
this.value = value;
}
public static class ValueBean {
private String key;
private String value;
public String getKey() {
return key;
}
public void setKey(String key) {
this.key = key;
}
public String getValue() {
return value;
}
public void setValue(String value) {
this.value = value;
}
}
}
}
}
}

Android Parcelable JsonArray in Side JsonObject

When i am trying Parce this json data with GSON. I am unable to get JsonArray in side of JsonObject. Below is my code, every suggestion will get appriciated.
JSON DATA FROM SERVER :
{
"GetJobDetails": {
"MaxAmount": 0,
"CreatorId": 1,
"JobImages": [
{
"ImagePath": "http://192.168.1.108:8088/Uploads/6e660c0c-4a2b- 42dc-ad97-82cc3efe87a0.jpg",
"JobImageId": 1
},
{
"ImagePath": "http://192.168.1.108:8088/Uploads/ccf1087d-9f7e-4c21-bc61-8aa3fd924e05.jpg",
"JobImageId": 2
},
{
"ImagePath": "http://192.168.1.108:8088/Uploads/4333e8b6-0079-457f-a225-fd7900ea81b1.jpg",
"JobImageId": 3
}
],
}
}
In ACTIVITY :
Gson gson = new Gson();
String response = new String(mresponce);
JobDetails jobDetails= gson.fromJson(response, JobDetails .class);
Log.e("JobDetails ",""+jobDetails.getJobImagesList());
this log prints allways null even when i have images list there in my data.
MODEL CLASS :
public class JobDetails implements Parcelable {
private int MaxAmount;
private int CreatorId;
private List<JobImage> JobImages;
public JobDetails() {
}
public JobDetails(Parcel parcel) {
this.MaxAmount = parcel.readInt();
this.CreatorId= parcel.readInt();
this.JobImages = new ArrayList<JobImage>();
parcel.readTypedList(JobImages, JobImage.CREATOR);
}
// Parcelable
#Override
public int describeContents() {
return 0;
}
#Override
public void writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags) {
dest.writeInt(this.MaxAmount);
dest.writeInt(this.CreatorId);
dest.writeList(this.JobImages);
// TODO: Not Parceling AddressList
}
public static final Parcelable.Creator CREATOR = new Parcelable.Creator() {
public JobDetails createFromParcel(Parcel in) {
return new JobDetails(in);
}
public JobDetails[] newArray(int size) {
return new JobDetails[size];
}
};
public List<JobImage> getJobImagesList() {
return JobImages;
}
public void setJobImagesList(List<JobImage> jobImages) {
JobImages = jobImages;
}
public int getMaxAmount() {
return MaxAmount;
}
public void setMaxAmount(int maxAmount) {
MaxAmount= maxAmount;
}
}
ANOTHER MODEL CLASS FOR JOBIMAGE:
public class JobImage implements Parcelable {
private String ImagePath;
private int JobImageId;
JobImage(){
}
public JobImage(Parcel in) {
this.ImagePath = in.readString();
this.JobImageId = in.readInt();
}
// Parcelable
#Override
public int describeContents() {
return 0;
}
#Override
public void writeToParcel(Parcel dest, int flags) {
dest.writeString(this.ImagePath);
dest.writeInt(this.JobImageId);
// TODO: Not Parceling AddressList
}
public static final Creator CREATOR = new Creator() {
public JobImage createFromParcel(Parcel in) {
return new JobImage(in);
}
public JobImage[] newArray(int size) {
return new JobImage[size];
}
};
public String getImagePath() {
return ImagePath;
}
public void setImagePath(String imagePath) {
ImagePath = imagePath;
}
public int getJobImageId() {
return JobImageId;
}
public void setJobImageId(int jobImageId) {
JobImageId = jobImageId;
}
}
Please help me to find what i am doing wrong in this :

Your top-level JSON object is not a JobDetails object, it is an object that has JobDetails member name GetJobDetails. You need to handle this level of your JSON. You can do it with a custom TypeAdapter, or perhaps easier, just make a container object and deserialize it.
class JobDetailContainer {
private JobDetails GetJobDetails;
public JobDetails getJobDetails() {
return GetJobDetails;
}
}
then use --
Gson gson = new Gson();
String response = new String(mresponce);
GetJobDetails getJobDetails= gson.fromJson(response, GetJobDetails.class);
Log.e("JobDetails ",""+getJobDetails.getJobDetails().getJobImagesList());

Agreed with #iagreen ...I should handel top level json object too..this is what i have done after doing some R&D
public class GetJobDetails {
public GetJobDetailsResult getGetJobDetailsResult() {
return GetJobDetailsResult;
}
public void setGetJobDetailsResult(GetJobDetailsResult GetJobDetailsResult) {
this.GetJobDetailsResult = GetJobDetailsResult;
}
}
For Inner Json :
public class GetJobDetailsResult {
private Integer MaxAmount;
private Integer CreatorTotJobPosted;
private List<JobImage> JobImages = new ArrayList<JobImage>();
public Integer getMaxAmount() {
return MaxAmount;
}
public void setMaxAmount(Integer MaxAmount) {
this.MaxAmount = MaxAmount;
}
public Integer getCreatorTotJobPosted() {
return CreatorTotJobPosted;
}
public void setCreatorTotJobPosted(Integer CreatorTotJobPosted) {
this.CreatorTotJobPosted = CreatorTotJobPosted;
}
public List<JobImage> getJobImages() {
return JobImages;
}
public void setJobImages(List<JobImage> JobImages) {
this.JobImages = JobImages;
}
}
Finally For To Hold JobImages
public class JobImage {
private String ImagePath;
private Integer JobImageId;
public String getImagePath() {
return ImagePath;
}
public void setImagePath(String ImagePath) {
this.ImagePath = ImagePath;
}
public Integer getJobImageId() {
return JobImageId;
}
public void setJobImageId(Integer JobImageId) {
this.JobImageId = JobImageId;
}
}
Final Step :
Gson gson = new Gson();
String response = new String(jsonObjectresponce.toString());
GetJobDetails getJobDetails = gson.fromJson(response, GetJobDetails.class);
GetJobDetailsResult result = getJobDetails.getGetJobDetailsResult();
// now result object contains my json data.

converting gson to object with java

I'm trying to figure out how to use gson to convert reddit's api response to a form I can use. After some code I use
System.out.println(response.toString());
to get output (slightly edited)
{"json": {"errors": [], "data": {"modhash": "dosiom5o6abbbb758729039f04762a05778db4aeeeacd8eb4a", "cookie": "14756159,2012-08-21T12:05:05,0971bdec35d71af4073cf56ad82fb0ae7c5fe2d1"}}}
After googling around I built the following class
class GSONClass {
private Response jsonresponse;
public Response getJsonresponse() {
return jsonresponse;
}
public void setJsonresponse(Response jsonresponse) {
this.jsonresponse = jsonresponse;
}
public static class Response {
private String[] errors;
private Data data;
public Data getData() {
return data;
}
public void setData(Data data) {
this.data = data;
}
public String[] getErrors() {
return errors;
}
public void setErrors(String[] errors) {
this.errors = errors;
}
}
public static class Data {
private String modhash = "hi";
private String cookie;
public String getCookie() {
return cookie;
}
public void setCookie(String cookie) {
this.cookie = cookie;
}
public String getModhash() {
return modhash;
}
public void setModhash(String modhash) {
this.modhash = modhash;
}
}
}
Then I use:
GSONClass target = new GSONClass();
String json = gson.toJson(response.toString());
GSONClass target = gson.fromJson(json, GSONClass.class);
I'm doing something wrong because I get a "java.lang.IllegalStateException: Expected BEGIN_OBJECT but was STRING" error.

You were close. Your object needed to have an attribute named json that contained both an array(errors) and an object named data that contained properties modhash and cookie. The property you were calling jsonResponse needed to be called json.
public class GSONClass {
private Response json;
public static class Response {
private String[] errors;
private Data data;
}
public static class Data {
private String modhash = "hi";
private String cookie;
}
}
And a stub/runner.
import com.google.gson.Gson;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String response = "{\"json\": {\"errors\": [], \"data\": {\"modhash\": \"dosiom5o6abbbb758729039f04762a05778db4aeeeacd8eb4a\", \"cookie\": \"14756159,2012-08-21T12:05:05,0971bdec35d71af4073cf56ad82fb0ae7c5fe2d1\"}}}";
GSONClass target = new Gson().fromJson(response, GSONClass.class);
System.out.println(target);
}
}
