Proper consumption of difficult nested JSON objects in Scala using spray-json and scalar.http

246 views Asked by At

My problem is basically to deserialize a complex json string to an object.

This is the case classes with implicits:

import spray.json.{RootJsonFormat, _}

case class OpenCageDataDocumentation(value: String) extends AnyVal
case class OpenCageDataLicence(name: String, url: String)
case class OpenCageDataRate(limit: Double, remaining: Double, reset: Double)
case class OpenCageDataStatus(code: Int, message: String)
case class OpenCageDataStayInformed(blog: String, twitter: String)
case class OpenCageDataTimestamp(created_http: String, created_unix: Long)
case class OpenCageResultGeometry(lat: Double, lng: Double)
case class OpenCageResultAnnotation(DMS: Map[String, String],
                                    FIPS: Map[String, String],
                                    MGRS: String,
                                    Maidenhead: String,
                                    Mercator: Map[String, Double],
                                    OSM: Map[String, String],
                                    UN_M49: Map[String, Either[Map[String, String], List[String]]],
                                    callingcode: Long,
                                    currency: Map[String, Either[String, Either[Double, List[String]]]],
                                    flag: String,
                                    geohash: String,
                                    qibla: Double,
                                    roadinfo: Map[String, String],
                                    sun: Map[String, Map[String, Double]],
                                    timezone: Map[String, Either[String, Double]],
                                    what3words: Map[String, String])
case class OpenCageDataResult(geometry: Option[OpenCageResultGeometry],
                              annotations: Map[String, OpenCageResultAnnotation],
                              confidence: Long,
                              formatted: String,
                              components: Map[String, String],
                              bounds: Map[String, OpenCageResultGeometry])

case class OpenCageDataResponse(documentation: String,
                                licenses: List[OpenCageDataLicence],
                                rate: OpenCageDataRate,
                                results: List[OpenCageDataResult],
                                status: OpenCageDataStatus,
                                stay_informed: OpenCageDataStayInformed,
                                thanks: String,
                                timestamp: OpenCageDataTimestamp,
                                total_results: Int)

trait OpenCageJsonFormatResponse extends DefaultJsonProtocol {
  implicit val jsonFormatResponse: RootJsonFormat[OpenCageDataResponse] = jsonFormat9(OpenCageDataResponse)
  implicit val jsonFormatLicence: RootJsonFormat[OpenCageDataLicence] = jsonFormat2(OpenCageDataLicence)
  implicit val jsonFormatRate: RootJsonFormat[OpenCageDataRate] = jsonFormat3(OpenCageDataRate)
  implicit val jsonFormatStatus: RootJsonFormat[OpenCageDataStatus] = jsonFormat2(OpenCageDataStatus)
  implicit val jsonFormatStayInformed: RootJsonFormat[OpenCageDataStayInformed] = jsonFormat2(OpenCageDataStayInformed)
  implicit val jsonFormatTimestamp: RootJsonFormat[OpenCageDataTimestamp] = jsonFormat2(OpenCageDataTimestamp)
  implicit val jsonFormatGeometry: RootJsonFormat[OpenCageResultGeometry] = jsonFormat2(OpenCageResultGeometry)
  implicit val jsonFormatResult: RootJsonFormat[OpenCageDataResult] = jsonFormat6(OpenCageDataResult)
  implicit val jsonFormatResultAnnotation: RootJsonFormat[OpenCageResultAnnotation] = jsonFormat16(OpenCageResultAnnotation)
}

This is the main object:

import scalaj.http.{Http, HttpResponse}

import spray.json._


object testapi2 extends OpenCageJsonFormatResponse {

  private final val BASE_OPEN_CAGE_DATA_URI = s"https://api.opencagedata.com/geocode/v1/json?"
  private final val OPEN_CAGE_DATA_API_KEY = sys.env("OPEN_CAGE_DATA_API_KEY")

  def main(args: Array[String]): Unit = {
    val response: HttpResponse[String] = Http(BASE_OPEN_CAGE_DATA_URI)
      .param("q", "500 W 120 S")
      .param("key", OPEN_CAGE_DATA_API_KEY)
      .execute()
    val json = response.body.parseJson;
    println(json)
    val parsedBody = json.convertTo[OpenCageDataResponse]
    println(parsedBody)
  }
}

It breaks on line val parsedBody = json.convertTo[OpenCageDataResponse] with the following trace:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException

And this is the actual json object coming back as a response
