I am programming a simple TCP server in Java that is listening on some URL on some port. Some client (not in Java) sends a JSON message to the server, something like this {'message':'hello world!', 'test':555}
. I accept the message an try to get the JSON (I am thinking to use GSON library).
Socket socket = serverSocket.accept();
InputStream inputStream = socket.getInputStream();
But how can I get the message from input stream? I tried to use ObjectInputStream
, but as far as I understood it waits serialized data and JSON is no serialized.
Wrap it with a BufferedReader
and start reading the data from it:
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
try (BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(socket.getInputStream()))) {
String line;
while ( (line = br.readLine()) != null) {
sb.append(line).append(System.lineSeparator());
}
String content = sb.toString();
//as example, you can see the content in console output
System.out.println(content);
}
Once you have it as a String, parse it with a library like Gson or Jackson.
StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
int ch;
boolean run = true;
try {
while(run) {
ch = reader.read();
if(ch == -1) { break; }
buffer.append((char) ch);
if(isJSONValid(buffer.toString())){ run = false;}
}
} catch (SocketTimeoutException e) {
//handle exception
}
private boolean isJSONValid(String test) {
try {
new JSONObject(test);
} catch (JSONException ex) {
try {
new JSONArray(test);
} catch (JSONException ex1) {
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
