json format of data code example
Example 1: what is JSON
JavaScript Object Notation
Its a key value pair
its popular light-weight way of transfering data
for example :
Lets try to create a json for Person Object
with name , age , isMarried , gender
Its ket value pair
the key is always String and need to be in quotation
value can be :
String
Number
Boolean
null
array
another json object
This is one json with 5 fields
each key value pair should be separated by comma
{
"name" : "Anna",
"age" : 18 ,
"isMarried" : false ,
"gender" : "female",
"company" : null
}
Example 2: json full form
JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation.
It is a lightweight format for storing and transporting data.
It is often used when data is sent from a server to a web page.
It is "self-describing" and easy to understand.
Example 3: JSON format
ArrayList<Countries> listCountries = new ArrayList<>();//country
ArrayList<Detail> listDetails = new ArrayList<>();//listDetail
ArrayList<Detail> listSub = new ArrayList<>();//List Sub
Countries countries = new Countries();
countries.setId("1");
countries.setName("Sim");
countries.setGender("M");
countries.setCountry("khompong Chhnang");
countries.setPostalCode("225566");
//Add Countries object to ArrayList
listCountries.add(countries);
Detail detail = new Detail();
detail.setPhone("09659694146");
detail.setAddress("11H");
//Add Detail object to ArrayList
listDetails.add(detail);
Detail detail1 = new Detail();
detail1.setPhone("2222");
detail1.setAddress("tttt2");
listSub.add(detail1);
JSONObject jsonObject_sub = new JSONObject();
JSONArray jsonArray_sub = new JSONArray();
for (int i = 0; i < listSub.size(); i++){
try {
jsonObject_sub.put("Phone",listSub.get(i).getPhone());
jsonObject_sub.put("Address",listSub.get(i).getAddress());
jsonArray_sub.put(jsonObject_sub);
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
JSONObject jb = new JSONObject();
JSONArray jsonArray = new JSONArray();
for (int i = 0; i<listDetails.size(); i++){
//convert to JSONObject
try {
jb.put("Address",listDetails.get(i).getAddress());
jb.put("Phone",listDetails.get(i).getPhone());
jb.put("sub_detail",jsonArray_sub);
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
//convert JSONObject to JSONArray
for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++){
jsonArray.put(jb);
}
JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject();
for (int i=0; i<listCountries.size(); i++){
try {
//convert to JSONObject
jsonObject.put("id",listCountries.get(i).getId());
jsonObject.put("name",listCountries.get(i).getName());
jsonObject.put("gender",listCountries.get(i).getGender());
//put JSONArray into JSONObject
jsonObject.put("detail",jsonArray);
jsonObject.put("country",listCountries.get(i).getCountry());
jsonObject.put("postal_code",listCountries.get(i).getPostalCode());
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Log.d(">>>", "jsonObject: "+jsonObject);
}
