使用Gson解析不同的JSON对象的列表

Question

How to parse below stream of Json objects? There are example for array parsing but not stream of json objects. Only the first object is different other than that every other object is similar. Its not array but stream of json objects.

[{
  "code": 200,
  "request_id": "52d868df5ada23e5f289320f",
  "ok": true,
  "payload_meta": {
    "original_size": 1837,
    "size": 1837
  }
},{
  "id": "4fb56d7f273fb7ebfe22783f",
  "duration": "6:49",
  "duration_seconds": 409,
  "size_bytes": 16396948
}{
  "id": "4fb56d7f273fb7ebfe227841",
  "duration": "3:42",
  "duration_seconds": 222,
  "size_bytes": 8904980
}{
  "id": "4fb56d7f273fb7ebfe227846",
  "duration": "4:06",
  "duration_seconds": 246,
  "size_bytes": 9843339
}]

And also how to notify after parsing one object successfully instead of waiting whole stream to complete.

Answer 1

I made no assumptions on the kind of object you are trying to deserialize. So I named Class1 and Class2 the two kind of objects and they have no relationship. I declared them as inner static classes to make compat the example, but you can move Class1 and Class2 to separate files. I paste you a ready to run code so that you can try it on your own.

package stackoverflow.questions.q23556772;

import java.util.*;

import com.google.gson.*;

public class Q23556772 {

    public static class Class1 {
        String code;
        String request_id;
        Boolean ok;
        HashMap<String, Integer> payload_meta;

        @Override
        public String toString() {
            return "Class1 [code=" + code + ", request_id=" + request_id + ", ok=" + ok + ", payload_meta=" + payload_meta + "]";
        }

    }

    public static class Class2 {
        String id;
        String duration;
        Integer duration_seconds;
        Integer size_bytes;

        @Override
        public String toString() {
            return "Class2 [id=" + id + ", duration=" + duration + ", duration_seconds=" + duration_seconds + ", size_bytes=" + size_bytes + "]";
        }

    }


    public static void main(String[] args) {
     String json = 
             "[{                                                     "+
             "  \"code\": 200,                                       "+
             "  \"request_id\": \"52d868df5ada23e5f289320f\",        "+
             "  \"ok\": true,                                        "+
             "  \"payload_meta\": {                                  "+
             "    \"original_size\": 1837,                           "+
             "    \"size\": 1837                                     "+
             "  }                                                    "+
             "},{                                                    "+
             "  \"id\": \"4fb56d7f273fb7ebfe22783f\",                "+
             "  \"duration\": \"6:49\",                              "+
             "  \"duration_seconds\": 409,                           "+
             "  \"size_bytes\": 16396948                             "+
             "},{                                                    "+
             "  \"id\": \"4fb56d7f273fb7ebfe227841\",                "+
             "  \"duration\": \"3:42\",                              "+
             "  \"duration_seconds\": 222,                           "+
             "  \"size_bytes\": 8904980                              "+
             "},{                                                    "+
             "  \"id\": \"4fb56d7f273fb7ebfe227846\",                "+
             "  \"duration\": \"4:06\",                              "+
             "  \"duration_seconds\": 246,                           "+
             "  \"size_bytes\": 9843339                              "+
             "}]                                                     ";



     ArrayList<Object> result = new ArrayList<>();

     Gson g = new Gson();

     JsonArray e = new JsonParser().parse(json).getAsJsonArray();

     for(int i = 0; i < e.size(); i++){
         JsonObject o = e.get(i).getAsJsonObject();
         if (o.get("code") != null)
             result.add(g.fromJson(o, Class1.class));
         else if (o.get("id") != null)
             result.add(g.fromJson(o, Class2.class));
         else result.add(g.fromJson(o, Object.class));
     }

     for(Object resultObject: result)
         System.out.println(resultObject.toString());


    }

}

As you can see, I use a combination of JsonParser and Gson methods. I use the parser to peek inside the "stream" and to decide what is the correct class to use, then I use standard Gson deserialization to do the work. This code could be adapted into a custom TypeAdapter , but probably it makes the code "complex" beyond your real needs.

Final note: I edited your JSON since it was incorrect.
