Android-如何在宁静的Web服务上以JSON格式传输图像

Question

I have a model like;

public class Employee{
      String name;
      int age;
      String designation;
      double salary;
      ...........

and there will be another field; employee's photo

here is my question; how can I transfer this employee object or employee list object with restful web service as json object. I can convert my images(employee's photo) to String but is this best way to transfer image files.Could anyone give me an example about transfering image files in java models

Answer 1

JSON isn't built to stream raw data such as images. The best practice to do what you need is to supply a link to the image in the json field (a simple URL) and then download that image separately. The image itself can be stored raw "as is".
