Gson, parsing json innerclass list, javabean
Ok, so I'm trying to parse a bit of JSon. I managed to make out:
Member.json:
{"member":{"id":585897,"name":"PhPeter","profileIconId":691,"age":99,"email":"peter@adress.com "}}
but what if I need to parse:
{"Members":[{"id":585897,"name":"PhPeter","profileIconId":691,"age":99,"email":"peter@adress.com"},{"id":645231,"name":"Bill","profileIconId":123,"age":56,"email":"bill@adress.com"}]}
Of course I have searched the web, I think I need to use "List <>" here private List<memberProfile> member;
, but how do I "get" this from my main class?
I used this to parse the first line:
memeberClass.java
public class memberClass {
private memberProfile member;
public memberProfile getMember() {
return member;
}
public class memberProfile{
int id;
String name;
int profileIconId;
int age;
String email;
//Getter
public int getId() {
return id;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public int getProfileIconId() {
return profileIconId;
}
public int getAge() {
return age;
}
public String getEmail() {
return email;
}
}
}
memberToJava.java
public class memberToJava {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Gson gson = new Gson();
try {
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("...Member.json"));
//convert the json string back to object
memberClass memberObj = gson.fromJson(br, memberClass.class);
System.out.println("Id: " + memberObj.getMember().getId());
System.out.println("Namw: " + memberObj.getMember().getName());
System.out.println("ProfileIconId: " + memberObj.getMember().getProfileIconId());
System.out.println("Age: " + memberObj.getMember().getAge());
System.out.println("Email: " + memberObj.getMember().getEmail());
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}

see below code
MemberClass.java
import java.util.List;
public class MemberClass {
private List<MemberProfile> member;
public List<MemberProfile> getMember() {
return member;
}
public void setMember(List<MemberProfile> member) {
this.member = member;
}
public class MemberProfile {
int id;
String name;
int profileIconId;
int age;
String email;
public int getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(int id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
public int getProfileIconId() {
return profileIconId;
}
public void setProfileIconId(int profileIconId) {
this.profileIconId = profileIconId;
}
public int getAge() {
return age;
}
public void setAge(int age) {
this.age = age;
}
public String getEmail() {
return email;
}
public void setEmail(String email) {
this.email = email;
}
}
}
Main class
import com.google.gson.Gson;
public class MemTest {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String json = "{'member':[{'id':585897,'name':'PhPeter','profileIconId':691,'age':99,'email':'peter@adress.com'},{'id':645231,'name':'Bill','profileIconId':123,'age':56,'email':'bill@adress.com'}]}";
MemberClass memberClass = new Gson().fromJson(json, MemberClass.class);
System.out.println(new Gson().toJson(memberClass));
}
}
Output
{"member":[{"id":585897,"name":"PhPeter","profileIconId":691,"age":99,"email":"\u0027peter@adress.com\u0027"},{"id":645231,"name":"Bill","profileIconId":123,"age":56}]}

Hi I have made some changes to your application and it seems to be working now! You where pretty close all you need is a wrapper around an array.
public class memberWrapper {
private List<memberClass> Members;
public List<memberClass> getMembers() {
return Members;
}
public void setMembers(List<memberClass> members) {
this.Members = members;
}
}
Then I modified the original class a bit:
public class memberClass {
int id;
String name;
int profileIconId;
int age;
String email;
//Getter
public int getId() {
return id;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public int getProfileIconId() {
return profileIconId;
}
public int getAge() {
return age;
}
public String getEmail() {
return email;
}
}
and then basically:
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("stuff.json"));
//convert the json string back to object
memberWrapper memberObj = gson.fromJson(br, memberWrapper.class);
System.out.println("Id: " + memberObj.getMembers().get(0).getId());
The important thing now is to work with JSOn to make sure the key matches the name of your variables.
