I am having trouble parsing this particular JSONObject,
Here is the object:
{"status":1,"dds":{"id":1,"name":"DDS1","description":"This is DDS 1","children":[{"id":2,"order":1,"type":1,"children":[{"id":3,"order":1,"type":3,"children":[]},{"id":4,"order":2,"type":2,"children":[]}]}]}}
That object is stored in my variable called result, here is my code to parse it:
JSONObject jsonObj = null;
JSONArray jsonArr = null;
try {
jsonObj = new JSONObject(result);
jsonArr = jsonObj.getJSONArray("dds");
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
And it is giving me this error:
org.json.JSONException: Value {"id":1,"children":[{"type":1,"order":1,"id":2,"children":[{"type":3,"order":1,"id":3,"children":[]},{"type":2,"order":2,"id":4,"children":[]}]}],"description":"This is DDS 1","name":"DDS1"} at dds of type org.json.JSONObject cannot be converted to JSONArray
I am trying to break it up into sub arrays of children. Where am I going wrong?
@Mr Love
here is my output to your code
You are calling jsonArr = jsonObj.getJSONArray("dds");
, however dds
is not an array, it's a JSON object, if you format the JSON you can see it clearly:
{
"status":1,
"dds":{
"id":1,
"name":"DDS1",
"description":"This is DDS 1",
"children":[
{
"id":2,
"order":1,
"type":1,
"children":[
{
"id":3,
"order":1,
"type":3,
"children":[
]
},
{
"id":4,
"order":2,
"type":2,
"children":[
]
}
]
}
]
}
}
So you will just need to call JSONObject dds = jsonObj.getJSONObject("dds")
, and if you want the children you would call JSONArray children = jsonObj.getJSONObject("dds").getJSONArray("children");
.
private static final String json = "{\"status\":1,\"dds\":{\"id\":1,\"name\":\"DDS1\",\"description\":\"This is DDS 1\",\"children\":[{\"id\":2,\"order\":1,\"type\":1,\"children\":[{\"id\":3,\"order\":1,\"type\":3,\"children\":[]},{\"id\":4,\"order\":2,\"type\":2,\"children\":[]}]}]}}";
public static void main(String[] args) throws JSONException
{
JSONObject jsonObj = new JSONObject(json);
JSONObject dds = jsonObj.getJSONObject("dds");
JSONArray children = dds.getJSONArray("children");
System.out.println("Children:");
System.out.println(children.toString(4));
JSONArray grandChildren = children.getJSONObject(0).getJSONArray("children");
System.out.println("Grandchildren:");
System.out.println(grandChildren.toString(4));
}
Produces:
Children:
[{
"children": [
{
"children": [],
"id": 3,
"order": 1,
"type": 3
},
{
"children": [],
"id": 4,
"order": 2,
"type": 2
}
],
"id": 2,
"order": 1,
"type": 1
}]
Grandchildren:
[
{
"children": [],
"id": 3,
"order": 1,
"type": 3
},
{
"children": [],
"id": 4,
"order": 2,
"type": 2
}
]
You can do it like this, where the JsonElement could be a JSONobject or JsonArray or any primitive type:
private JsonElement findElementsChildren(JsonElement element, String id) {
if(element.isJsonObject()) {
JsonObject jsonObject = element.getAsJsonObject();
if(id.equals(jsonObject.get("id").getAsString())) {
return jsonObject.get("children");
} else {
return findElementsChildren(element.get("children").getAsJsonArray(), id);
}
} else if(element.isJsonArray()) {
JsonArray jsonArray = element.getAsJsonArray();
for (JsonElement childElement : jsonArray) {
JsonElement result = findElementsChildren(childElement, id);
if(result != null) {
return result;
}
}
}
return null;
