Android - Moshi 中的多种响应类型

Question

I can get the following JSON data from the server :

{
    "id": 1,
    "groupName": "MyBestFriends"
}

In my Android project, I use Moshi to handle this response. Particularly, I use the following data class for that type of response:

@JsonClass(generateAdapter = true)
data class Group(
    val id: Long,
    val groupName:String
)

So, but in case a requested Group does not exist, then I can also get the following JSON response:

{
    "detail": "Not found."
}

How, could my Group data class also handle this ? What I want is handling both types of responses but with only one data class ? Is that possible ?

Note: When I used Java and GSON in my earlier Android Projects, I could use the @SerializedName annotation for the fields and whatever JSON response came in the GSON adapter mapped that to the given class. So, in my case it would be something like this:

public class Group {

    @SerializedName("id")
    private Long id;

    @SerializedName("groupName")
    private String groupName;

    @SerializedName("detail")
    private String detail;

    // getter & setter
}

Is this also possible with Moshi ?

Answer 1

Yes! You can use @Json(name="detail") on your field to assign it a name when encoding and decoding.
