I have a very straight forward issue here. I need to take JSON coming from the API and convert it to objects I created for them.
This far, it will deserialize them into my List but each Metric object has null values
JSON COMING IN
{
"metrics": [
{
"metric": {
"type": 1,
"name": "slide-11-start",
"value": "1287249598295",
"sessionID": ""
}
},
{
"metric": {
"type": 1,
"name": "slide-21-start",
"value": "1287249601368",
"sessionID": ""
}
},
{
"metric": {
"type": 7,
"name": "resolution",
"value": "1680x1050",
"sessionID": ""
}
},
{
"metric": {
"type": 6,
"name": "OS",
"value": "Linux",
"sessionID": ""
}
},
{
"metric": {
"type": 5,
"name": "browser",
"value": "Netscape",
"sessionID": ""
}
}
]
}
Metric Object
public class Metric {
private int type;
private String name;
private String value;
private String sessionID;
/**
* @return the type
*/
public int getType() {
return type;
}
/**
* @param type the type to set
*/
public void setType(int type) {
this.type = type;
}
/**
* @return the name
*/
public String getName() {
return name;
}
/**
* @param name the name to set
*/
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
/**
* @return the value
*/
public String getValue() {
return value;
}
/**
* @param value the value to set
*/
public void setValue(String value) {
this.value = value;
}
/**
* @return the sessionID
*/
public String getSessionID() {
return sessionID;
}
/**
* @param sessionID the sessionID to set
*/
public void setSessionID(String sessionID) {
this.sessionID = sessionID;
}
}
Container Ojbect
import java.util.List;
/**
*
* @author joshua
*/
public class MetricSet {
private List<Metric> metrics;
/**
* @return the metrics
*/
public List<Metric> getMetrics() {
return metrics;
}
/**
* @param metrics the metrics to set
*/
public void setMetrics(List<Metric> metrics) {
this.metrics = metrics;
}
}
CODE TO CONVERT THE JSON
String json = "";
if(request.getParameter("data") != null) {
json = request.getParameter("data");
}
MetricSet metrics = new MetricSet();
try {
Gson gson = new Gson();
Type listType = new TypeToken<MetricSet>() {}.getType();
metrics = gson.fromJson(json, MetricSet.class);
}
catch(Exception ex) {
String msg = ex.toString();
}
