Getting JSONExeption: No Value

Question

Here is my function for initializing Json Object

public void setJsonsObject() throws ClientProtocolException, IOException, JSONException {

        StringBuilder url = new StringBuilder(URL);
        HttpGet get = new HttpGet(url.toString());
        HttpResponse response = client.execute(get);

        int status = response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode();
        if(status == 200) {
            HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
            String data = EntityUtils.toString(entity);
            jObj = new JSONObject(data);
            //JSONObject first = jsons.getJSONObject(1);
        } else {
            Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "error", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
        }       
    }

After this My jObj is

{

    "condition_p": "Brand",
    "photo_one": "http:\/\/yoors.com\/api\/files\/5213c325108efyoors.jpg"
}]}

After that I'm trying to get some information from jsonObject

setJsonsObject();
String str = jObj.getString("title");
AlertDialog alertDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this).create();
alertDialog.setTitle("Title");
alertDialog.setMessage(str);
alertDialog.show();

And it gives JSONExeption: No value for title

What's the problem? Why it's not working well?

Answer 1

You are getting this Exception because "title" key is not directly inside your jObj .

parse like the following,

String data = EntityUtils.toString(entity);
                JSONObject jObj=new JSONObject(data);

                JSONArray jarray=jObj.getJSONArray("object");
                for(int i=0;i<jarray.length();i++)
                {
                    JSONObject obj=jarray.getJSONObject(i);
                    String title=obj.getString("title");
                }

title contains your required string .

Answer 2

Please try this code for json parsing

 JsonArray object= json.getJSONArray("object");

    // looping through All Object
    for(int i = 0; i < object.length(); i++){
        JSONObject c = object.getJSONObject(i);

        // Storing each json item in variable
        String earning = c.getString("earnings");


    }

Answer 3

You need to get your JSONArray Object first:

JSONArray array = jObj.getJSONArray("object");
for (int i = 0; i < array.length(); i++) {
    JSONObject json = array.getJSONObject(i);
    String str = jObj.getString("title");
    //Doubt you want to show alert for each one. 
}

Alternatively, you can use my droidQuery library($) to simplify parsing:

Object[] array = $.makeArray(jObj.getJSONArray("object"));
for (Object obj : array) {
    JSONObject json = (JSONObject) obj;
    Map<String, ?> map = $.map(json);
    String str = map.get("title");
    //maybe show toast instead:
    $.with(this).toast(title, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
}
