and here is my php which is sending the json array :
<?php
header('Content-Type: application/json');
$response = array();
require_once('init.php');
$result = mysqli_query($conn,"SELECT *FROM book WHERE IDCateOf = 8") or die(mysql_error());
if (mysqli_num_rows($result) > 0) {
$response["books"]= array();
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)) {
$books["BID"] = $row["BID"];
$book["BTitle"] = $row["BTitle"];
$book["BAuthor"] = $row["BAuthor"];
$book["BCoverpath"] =$row["BCoverpath"];
$book["BEdition"] = $row["BEdition"];
array_push( $response["books"], $book);
}
echo json_encode($response, JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES && JSON_PRETTY_PRINT);
}
?>
the array that is generated using this php script is like this :
{
"books": [
{
"BTitle": "Attachments",
"BAuthor": "Rainbow Rowell",
"BCoverpath": "http://mybookshare.com/books/1.jpg",
"BEdition": "2th"
},
{
"BTitle": "Maybe Someday",
"BAuthor": "Colleen Hoover",
"BCoverpath": "http://mybookshare.com/books/2.jpg",
"BEdition": "1th"
},
{
"BTitle": "Me Before You : A Novel (Movie Tie-In)",
"BAuthor": "Jojo Moyes",
"BCoverpath": "http://mybookshare.com/books/3.jpg",
"BEdition": "1th"
},
{
"BTitle": "Hopeless",
"BAuthor": "Colleen Hoover",
"BCoverpath": "http://mybookshare.com/books/4.jpg",
"BEdition": "1th"
},
{
"BTitle": "Finding Cinderella",
"BAuthor": "Colleen Hoover",
"BCoverpath": "http://mybookshare.com/books/5.jpg",
"BEdition": "1th"
},
{
"BTitle": "November Nine",
"BAuthor": "Colleen Hoover",
"BCoverpath": "http://mybookshare.com/books/6.jpg",
"BEdition": "1th"
},
{
"BTitle": "Ugly Love",
"BAuthor": "Colleen Hoover",
"BCoverpath": "http://mybookshare.com/books/7.jpg",
"BEdition": "3th"
}
]
}
which my android activity is not recognizing because it json array must be like this :
[
{
"BTitle": "Attachments",
"BAuthor": "Rainbow Rowell",
"BCoverpath": "http://mybookshare.com/books/1.jpg",
"BEdition": "2th"
},
{
"BTitle": "Maybe Someday",
"BAuthor": "Colleen Hoover",
"BCoverpath": "http://mybookshare.com/books/2.jpg",
"BEdition": "1th"
},
{
"BTitle": "Me Before You : A Novel (Movie Tie-In)",
"BAuthor": "Jojo Moyes",
"BCoverpath": "http://mybookshare.com/books/3.jpg",
"BEdition": "1th"
},
{
"BTitle": "Hopeless",
"BAuthor": "Colleen Hoover",
"BCoverpath": "http://mybookshare.com/books/4.jpg",
"BEdition": "1th"
},
{
"BTitle": "Finding Cinderella",
"BAuthor": "Colleen Hoover",
"BCoverpath": "http://mybookshare.com/books/5.jpg",
"BEdition": "1th"
},
{
"BTitle": "November Nine",
"BAuthor": "Colleen Hoover",
"BCoverpath": "http://mybookshare.com/books/6.jpg",
"BEdition": "1th"
},
{
"BTitle": "Ugly Love",
"BAuthor": "Colleen Hoover",
"BCoverpath": "http://mybookshare.com/books/7.jpg",
"BEdition": "3th"
}
]
and i tried to make a .json file and i put the last json array without the name and the application worked just fine but i need to solve this problem because i need to get the data dynamically from the database using the php script
Your first JSON is not an array. It's an object with "books" array in it. You need to create appropriate object for this JSON, like:
class BookList {
List<Book> books;
}
Here is you modified code to work with that JSON:
JsonArrayRequest movieReq = new JsonArrayRequest(url,
new Response.Listener<JSONObject>() {
@Override
public void onResponse(JSONObject response) {
Log.d(TAG, response.toString());
hidePDialog();
// Parsing json
JSONArray arr = response.getJSONArray("books");
for (int i = 0; i < arr.length(); i++) {
try {
JSONObject obj = arr.getJSONObject(i);
Book book = new Book();
book.setTitle(obj.getString("BTitle"));
book.setThumbnailUrl(obj.getString("BCoverpath"));
book.setAuthor(obj.getString("BAuthor"));
book.setEdition(obj.getString("BEdition"));
// adding movie to movies array
bookList.add(book);
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
// notifying list adapter about data changes
// so that it renders the list view with updated data
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
}, new Response.ErrorListener() {
@Override
public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
VolleyLog.d(TAG, "Error: " + error.getMessage());
hidePDialog();
}
});
