My JSON data look like this.
{"Users":[
{"Username":"Admin1", "Password":"123"},
{"Username":"Admin2", "Password":"456"},
{"Username":"Admin3", "Password":"789"}
]}
I am trying to extract out all the list of Username and Password.
JSONParser parser=new JSONParser();
Object obj = parser.parse(new FileReader("./Database/Users.json"));
JSONObject jsonObject = (JSONObject) obj;
JSONArray userArray = (JSONArray) jsonObject.get("Users");
How do I then iterate through this JSONArray to achieve what I wanted?
Sorry if I wasn't clear. I was using org.json.simple, not org.json. And the JSONArray does not have the int length() method.
What I did was
Iterator<JSONObject> iterator = userArray.iterator();
while (iterator.hasNext()) {
JSONObject factObj = (JSONObject) iterator.next();
String userName = (String) factObj.get("Username");
String passWord = (String) factObj.get("Password");
}
Read the javadoc ;)
If you are using org.json.JSONArray, you can loop using int length() to know the array's length and Object get(index) or JSONObject getJSONObject(index) to get an item of the array.
You can iterate with for loop
for (int i = 0; i < userArray.length(); ++i) {
JSONObject user = recs.getJSONObject(i);
...
}
you can probably do something like the following
for(int i = 0; i < userArray.length; i++) {
JSONObject user = userArray.getJSONObject(i);
String username = user.getString("Username");
String password = user.getString("Password");
//etc
}

I have this JSON structure:
{"metrics":[{
"type": "sum",
"column": ["rsales", "nsales"]
},
{
"type":"count",
"column":["ptype", "plan"]
}]
}
I am trying to read that JSON from Java and want to the output to be like:
str_sum="Sum"
str_sum_array[]= {"rsales" ,"nsales"}
str_count="count"
str_count_array[]= {"ptype" ,"plan"}
Here is my code so far:
JSONArray jsonArray_Metric = (JSONArray) queryType.get("metrics");
for (int i = 0; i < jsonArray_Metric.length(); i++) {
JSONObject json_Metric = jsonArray_Metric.getJSONObject(i);
Iterator<String> keys_Metrict = json_Metric.keys();
while (keys_Metrict.hasNext()) {
String key_Metric = keys_Metrict.next();
// plz help
}
}
How can I complete the code to produce the desired output?
Instead of using iterator you can use simple for-loop as below ..
JSONParser parser = new JSONParser();
JSONObject object = (JSONObject) parser.parse(queryType);
JSONArray jsonArray_Metric = (JSONArray) object.get("metrics");
for (int index = 0; index < jsonArray_Metric.size(); index++) {
JSONObject item = (JSONObject) jsonArray_Metric.get(index);
String type = (String) item.get("type");
JSONArray column = (JSONArray) item.get("column");
System.out.println("str_sum store=\"" + type + "\"");
System.out.println("str_count_array[] store=" + column);
}
Sample Run
str_sum store="sum"
str_count_array[] store=["rsales","nsales"]
str_sum store="count"
str_count_array[] store=["ptype","plan"]
If you want JSONArray to be displayed with curly braces instead of default (actual) braces i.e. square braces then you could so something like this while printing or you can even delete them by replacing them with empty string "".
System.out.println("str_count_array[] store " + column.toString().replace("[", "{").replace("]", "}"));
You can format your display code as you like by playing around with println statement.
I am trying to convert string into json array and the iterate over it.
String name = "lokesh";
String response = "[{"name":"lokesh"}, {"name":"cherukuri"}]";
JsonArray jsonArray = gson.fromJson(response, JsonArray.class);
for (int i = 0; i < jsonArray.size(); i++) {
JsonObject jsonObject = jsonArray.get(i).getAsJsonObject();
System.out.println(jsonObject.get("name"));
if (jsonObject.get("name").toString().equals(name)) {
System.out.println("equal");
}
}
Problem: The If condition inside loop is not true because of quotes. because this line
System.out.println(jsonObject.get("name")); // printed "lokesh"
and System.out.println(name); //printed lokesh
Am i using GSON in a wrong way?
To get the value of the "name" attribute, you need to:
jsonObject.getString("name")
So, your code should be:
System.out.println(jsonObject.getString("name"));
if (jsonObject.getString("name").equals(name)) {
System.out.println("equal");
}
That's because jsonObject.get("name") return a JsonElement object.
If you're sure it's an string, you can get the content by
jsonObject.get("name").getAsString()
I have a JSON Object which converted into String and saved into database .But when i am trying to get it back it is throwing exception.My object is something like that...
{"COLUMN":["Type","Sub Type","F.P.","P.P.","Process","Due To Start"]}
How can we get the data back in Normal form?
My Java Code is.....
JSONObject obj = new JSONObject();
JSONArray the_json_array = obj.getJSONArray(userReorderOption);
int size = the_json_array.size();
ArrayList<JSONObject> arrays = new ArrayList<JSONObject>();
for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
JSONObject another_json_object = the_json_array.getJSONObject(i);
arrays.add(another_json_object);
}
And Exception i am getting....
net.sf.json.JSONException: JSONObject["{\"TASKLIST_COLUMN_REORDER\":[\"Type\",\"Sub Type\",\"F.P.\",\"P.P.\",\"Process\",\"Due To Start\"]}"] is not a JSONArray.
And this is java Code how i am creating JSON Object and saving into database...
String userReorderSelection;
Set set = new LinkedHashSet(userReorderSelection);
JSONObject json = new JSONObject();
json.accumulate("COLUMN", set);
saveJSONObj("PrimaryKeyColumn", json.toString());
Thanks Tichodroma,
But as i told i am using net.sf.json.JSONObject class and above things we can achieve from this class too..What i did to solve the above issue?...Please have a look on the Java code...
JSONObject jsonObj = new JSONObject();
JSONObject obj = jsonObj.fromObject(userReorderOption);
JSONArray columnName = (JSONArray) obj.get("COLUMN");
for (int i = 0; i < columnName.size(); i++) {
System.out.println(columnName.getString(i));
}
This code work fine for me with my Json Jar**(net.sf.json)**
Your JSON is not a JSONArray.
A JSONArray is an ordered sequence of values.
You have a JSONObject.
A JSONObject is an unordered collection of name/value pairs.
Edit:
Using the JSON implementation from org.codehaus.jettison.json, you can do this:
String json = "{\"COLUMN\":[\"Type\",\"Sub Type\",\"F.P.\",\"P.P.\",\"Process\",\"Due To Start\"]}";
JSONObject obj = new JSONObject(json);
JSONArray column = (JSONArray) obj.get("COLUMN");
for (int i = 0; i < column.length(); i++) {
final String field = column.getString(i);
System.out.println(field);
}
Result:
Type
Sub Type
F.P.
P.P.
Process
Due To Start
I have the following array returned to my JAVA Android application from PHP:
Array ( [0] => Array ( [referral_fullname] => Name 1 [referral_balance] => 500 ) [1] => Array ( [referral_fullname] => Name 2 [referral_balance] => 500 ) );
In Java they above array looks like this:
{"0":{"referral_fullname":"Name 1","referral_balance":"500"},"1":{"referral_fullname":"Name 2","referral_balance":"500"}};
For a simple JSONObject I'm using:
JSONTokener tokener = new JSONTokener(result.toString());
JSONObject finalResult = new JSONObject(tokener);
referral_fullname = finalResult.getString("referral_fullname");
but for an array of objects I don't know!
String str = your Json-> apply to.String();
JSONObject jObject = new JSONObject(str);
Map<String,String> map = new HashMap<String,String>();
Iterator iter = jObject.keys();
while(iter.hasNext()){
String key = (String)iter.next();
String value = jObject .getString(key);
map.put(key,value);
}
Your Json Syntax is wrong , JSONArray should be like this :
["0":{"referral_fullname":"Name 1","referral_balance":"500"},"1":{"referral_fullname":"Name 2","referral_balance":"500"}];
and to parse a JsonArray that contains some JSONObject , try this :
//parse the result
JSONObject jsonResult = null;
JSONArray arrayResult = null;
ArrayList<YourObject> listObjects = null;
try {
arrayResult = new JSONArray(result);
if(arrayResult != null) {
listObjects = new ArrayList<YourObject>();
int lenght = arrayResult.length();
for(int i=0; i< lenght; i++) {
JSONObject obj = arrayResult.getJSONObject(i);
YourObject object = new YourObject(obj);
listObjects.add(object);
}
}
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
And add a constructor in your Class YourObject to convert your Json to an instance :
public YourObject(JSONObject json) {
if (!json.isNull("referral_fullname"))
this.referral_fullname = json.optString("referral_fullname", null);
if (!json.isNull("referral_balance"))
this.referral_balance = json.optString("referral_balance", null);
}
You should use
JSONArray finalResult = new JSONArray(tokener);
if you can. You structure is now an object with two fields, 0 and 1, which contains another object. You have to get an array of object in place of this composite object if you want to iterate easily like
JSONObject jso;
for(int i = finalResult.lenght-1; i >=0; i--){
jso = finalResult.get(i);
// jso == {"referral_fullname":"Name 1","referral_balance":"500"}
[whatever]
}
Try this.............
final JSONArray result_array = json.getJSONArray("result");
for (int i = 0; i < result.length(); i++) {
JSONObject joObject = result_array.getJSONObject(i);
String jName = joObject.get("referral_fullname").toString();
String jbalance = joObject.get("referral_balance").toString();
}
First make an JSON object and see then in inner level what you have if you have array then fetch array.
You need to make JSON object first. For example, if resp is a String (for example coming as http response)
JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject(resp);
jsonObject may contains other JSON Objects or JSON array. How to convert the JSON depends on the response.
If arraykey is a array inside the JSON objects then we can get list of array by the following way.
JSONArray arr = jsonObject.getJSONArray("arraykey");
Check the length of arr, if it is greater than 0 then it contains JSON objects or JSON array depending the data.
There is a complete example with some explanation about JSON String to JSON array can be found at
http://www.hemelix.com/JSONHandling
I have written java code for generating json of my searched data from file.But its not generating exact JsonArray. Its like
[{"item":"1617"},{"item":"1617"}]
instead of
[{"item":"747"},{"item":"1617"}].
Here 1617 is last item which is fetched from file.
JSONArray ja = new JSONArray();
JSONObject jo = new JSONObject();
while (products.readRecord())
{
String productID = products.get("user");
int j = Integer.parseInt(productID);
if(j == userId) {
itemid = products.get("item");
jo.put("item",itemid);
ja.add(jo);
}
}
out.println(ja);
products.close();
you are actually creating one jSONobject object to handle two objects, shouldn't you need to create JSONObjects in the while loop? something like this, so every iteration in while loop will create a new JSONObject and add it to JSONArray
JSONArray ja = new JSONArray();
while (products.readRecord())
{
String productID = products.get("user");
int j = Integer.parseInt(productID, 10);
if(j == userId)
{
JSONObject jo = new JSONObject();
itemid = products.get("item");
jo.put("item", itemid);
ja.add(jo);
}
}
out.println(ja);
products.close();
Extra:
i am not sure how java does conversion for string to integer, but i think you should always specify radix when using parseInt so the strings like '09' will not be treated as octal value and converted to wrong value (atleast this is true in javascript :))
Integer.parseInt(productID, 10);
You must re-instantiate your JSonObject inside the loop because when you modify it you modify the underlying object which is referenced several times by your array. Move your JSONObject jo = new JSONObject(); inside the loop and it should work fine.
Place JSONObject jo = new JSONObject(); inside the loop:
while (products.readRecord())
{
JSONObject jo = new JSONObject();
String productID = products.get("user");
int j = Integer.parseInt(productID);
// etc
}
