Android Studio 无法读取 JSONArray

Question

I'm a beginner to Android Studio and I'm just learning how to read in JSON files. I used logcat to find out that I'm getting an exception on the line declaraing the JSONArray dataList. My code is below for reference.

try{
            JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject(loadJSONFromAsset());
            JSONArray dataList = jsonObject.getJSONArray("eateries");
            //Log.d("test", String.valueOf(dataList.length()));
            for(int i = 0; i < dataList.length(); i++){
                String EateryName = dataList.getJSONObject(i).getString("name");
                EateryList.add(EateryName);
            }
        }catch (JSONException e){
            e.printStackTrace();
            //Log.d("test", "exception");
        }

Answer 1

Follow these steps to solve your issue.

1. Check for asset folder/dir via code (file path must be accurate with.json).
2. Check for file created/present in dir using File object (if not then create file).
3. Check for file size by reading the file using FileInputStream.
4. If size > 0 then get data in byte-Array and convert byte-Array to string.
5. Now, you have a string of json data. Create JsonArray(your_string) and perform further operations you like.
   Every step has a code available on this stack overflow. Find and solve.
   Hope it helps.

Check GrIsHu answer simply you have to do is create assests folder in root of project

Here is the original Link

String myJsonFileString = Utils.getJsonFromAssets(getApplicationContext(), "your.json");
Log.i("My data", jsonFileString);

Gson gson = new Gson();
Type listUserType = new TypeToken<List<User>>() { }.getType();

List<User> users_ = gson.fromJson(myJsonFileString, listUserType);
for (int i = 0; i < users.size(); i++) {
  Log.i("data", "> Item " + i + "\n" + users.get(i));
}
