How can I console itens from a JSON object using c#? [duplicate]

I want to get all variables from https://api.coinmarketcap.com/v1/ticker/ in my c# console application.
How can I do this?
I started with getting the whole page as a stream. What to do now?
private static void start_get()
{
HttpWebRequest WebReq = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create
(string.Format("https://api.coinmarketcap.com/v1/ticker/"));
WebReq.Method = "GET";
HttpWebResponse WebResp = (HttpWebResponse)WebReq.GetResponse();
Console.WriteLine(WebResp.StatusCode);
Console.WriteLine(WebResp.Server);
Stream Answer = WebResp.GetResponseStream();
StreamReader _Answer = new StreamReader(Answer);
Console.WriteLine(_Answer.ReadToEnd());
}

First you need a custom class to use for deserialization:
public class Item
{
public string id { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public string symbol { get; set; }
public string rank { get; set; }
public string price_usd { get; set; }
[JsonProperty(PropertyName = "24h_volume_usd")] //since in c# variable names cannot begin with a number, you will need to use an alternate name to deserialize
public string volume_usd_24h { get; set; }
public string market_cap_usd { get; set; }
public string available_supply { get; set; }
public string total_supply { get; set; }
public string percent_change_1h { get; set; }
public string percent_change_24h { get; set; }
public string percent_change_7d { get; set; }
public string last_updated { get; set; }
}
Next, you can use Newtonsoft Json, a free JSON serialization and deserialization framework in the following way to get your items (include the following using statements):
using System.Net;
using System.IO;
using Newtonsoft.Json;
private static void start_get()
{
HttpWebRequest WebReq = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(string.Format("https://api.coinmarketcap.com/v1/ticker/"));
WebReq.Method = "GET";
HttpWebResponse WebResp = (HttpWebResponse)WebReq.GetResponse();
Console.WriteLine(WebResp.StatusCode);
Console.WriteLine(WebResp.Server);
string jsonString;
using (Stream stream = WebResp.GetResponseStream()) //modified from your code since the using statement disposes the stream automatically when done
{
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(stream, System.Text.Encoding.UTF8);
jsonString = reader.ReadToEnd();
}
List<Item> items = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<Item>>(jsonString);
Console.WriteLine(items.Count); //returns 921, the number of items on that page
}
Finally, the list of elements is stored in items.

A simplified version of Keyur PATEL's work.
static void GetCoinValues()
{
string json = new WebClient().DownloadString("https://api.coinmarketcap.com/v1/ticker/");
List<Item> items = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<Item>>(json);
foreach (var item in items)
{
Console.WriteLine("ID: " + item.id.ToUpper());
Console.WriteLine("Name: " + item.name.ToUpper());
Console.WriteLine("Symbol: " + item.symbol.ToUpper());
Console.WriteLine("Rank: " + item.rank.ToUpper());
Console.WriteLine("Price (USD): " + item.price_usd.ToUpper());
Console.WriteLine("\n");
}
}

C# receiving json string but unable to deserialize it

i have an application that has to deserialize an array of data wrapped in a "results" Root Object, using Netwonsoft.Json package from NuGet
The Json string is exactly this:
{"results":[{"Coin":"SBD","LP":0.000269,"PBV":-54.36,"MACD1M":true,"MACD30M":true,"MACD1H":true,"MACD1D":true},{"Coin":"XMR","LP":0.027135,"PBV":11.44,"MACD1M":true,"MACD30M":true,"MACD1H":true,"MACD1D":true}]}
This Json string is created from a Console App i made, i wanted it to look like this https://bittrex.com/Api/v2.0/pub/market/GetTicks?marketName=BTC-NEO&tickInterval=hour
My class looks like this
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace WindowsFormsApp2
{
public class Result
{
public string Coins { get; set; }
public decimal LastPrice { get; set; }
public decimal PercentBuyVolume { get; set; }
}
public class RootObject
{
public List<Result> results { get; set; }
}
}
In the Main form i have a function to download from a URL that Json (i have XAMPP running Apache) and deserialize it in an array. And it looks like this:
private void DownloadBittrexData()
{
int PanelID = 0;
var Coin = new List<string>();
var LastPrice = new List<decimal>();
var PercentBuyVolume = new List<decimal>();
var MACD1M = new List<bool>();
var MACD30M = new List<bool>();
var MACD1H = new List<bool>();
var MACD1D = new List<bool>();
var client = new WebClient();
var URL = client.DownloadString("http://localhost/test.json");
Console.WriteLine("Json String from URL: " + URL);
var dataDeserialized = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RootObject>(URL);
foreach (var data in dataDeserialized.results)
{
Coin.Add(data.Coins);
LastPrice.Add(data.LastPrice);
PercentBuyVolume.Add(data.PercentBuyVolume);
}
int sizeOfArrayClose = Coin.Count - 1;
for (int i = 0; i <= sizeOfArrayClose; i++)
{
Console.WriteLine("Coin: " + Coin[i]);
Console.WriteLine("Lastprice: " + LastPrice[i]);
Console.WriteLine("PBV: " + PercentBuyVolume[i]);
}
}
Newtonsoft.Json is of course declared at the beginning of the form together with System.Net
using System.Net;
using Newtonsoft.Json;
The output looks like this:
Json String from URL: {"results":[{"Coin":"SBD","LP":0.000269,"PBV":-54.36,"MACD1M":true,"MACD30M":true,"MACD1H":true,"MACD1D":true},{"Coin":"XMR","LP":0.027135,"PBV":11.44,"MACD1M":true,"MACD30M":true,"MACD1H":true,"MACD1D":true}]}
Coin:
Lastprice: 0
PBV: 0
Coin:
Lastprice: 0
PBV: 0
It's like it fails to deserialize it after downloading it.
What should i do? Thank you very much.

Your property names don't map to the field names in the JSON. You could rename your C# properties to match the JSON, but it would make for unreadable downstream code.
Instead, you should map your properties (with nice, readable names) to the names that appear in the JSON, using JsonPropertyAttribute:
public class Result
{
public string Coin { get; set; } //didn't bother here: changed property name to Coin
[JsonProperty("LP")]
public decimal LastPrice { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("PBV")]
public decimal PercentBuyVolume { get; set; }
}

your model should be like this for deserialize json
public class Result
{
public string Coin { get; set; }
public double LP { get; set; }
public double PBV { get; set; }
public bool MACD1M { get; set; }
public bool MACD30M { get; set; }
public bool MACD1H { get; set; }
public bool MACD1D { get; set; }
}
public class RootObject
{
public List<Result> results { get; set; }
}
LastPrice and PercentBuyVolume are not available in your model that's the reason it's getting an error.

I tried your exact code on my system and I was able to retrieve the result as expected. Hope this helps, It's easy to understand.
Here is the main class
static void Main(string[] args)
{
RootObject configfile = LoadJson();
foreach (var tResult in configfile.results)
{
Console.WriteLine("Coin: " + tResult.Coin);
Console.WriteLine("Lastprice: " + tResult.LP);
Console.WriteLine("PBV: " + tResult.PBV);
}
Console.ReadLine();
}
LoadJson Function would be
private static RootObject LoadJson()
{
string json = "{\"results\":[{\"Coin\":\"SBD\",\"LP\":0.000269,\"PBV\":-54.36,\"MACD1M\":true,\"MACD30M\":true,\"MACD1H\":true,\"MACD1D\":true},{\"Coin\":\"XMR\",\"LP\":0.027135,\"PBV\":11.44,\"MACD1M\":true,\"MACD30M\":true,\"MACD1H\":true,\"MACD1D\":true}]}";
RootObject configs = Deserialize<RootObject>(json);
return configs;
}
and Deserialize function would be
private static T Deserialize<T>(string json)
{
T unsecureResult;
string _DateTypeFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss";
DataContractJsonSerializerSettings serializerSettings = new DataContractJsonSerializerSettings();
DataContractJsonSerializer serializer;
MemoryStream ms;
unsecureResult = default(T);
serializerSettings.DateTimeFormat = new System.Runtime.Serialization.DateTimeFormat(_DateTypeFormat);
serializer = new DataContractJsonSerializer(typeof(T));
ms = new MemoryStream(Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(json));
unsecureResult = (T)serializer.ReadObject(ms);
return unsecureResult;
}
and Now your Datamodel would be
public class Result
{
public string Coin { get; set; }
public double LP { get; set; }
public double PBV { get; set; }
public bool MACD1M { get; set; }
public bool MACD30M { get; set; }
public bool MACD1H { get; set; }
public bool MACD1D { get; set; }
}
public class RootObject
{
public List<Result> results { get; set; }
}

JSON format writing to file

I want to write my items by JSON format, but My files empty. Here is my two class:
public class DocPart
{
public string Title { get; set; }
public bool Checked { get; set; }
}
public class DocConfig
{
public List<DocPart> Parts { get; set; }
public static DocConfig LoadFromString(string jsonData)
{
var config = new DocConfig();
config.Parts = new List<DocPart>();
var part = new DocPart
{
Title = "chapter1",
"chapter2",
Checked = checkBox1.Checked,
checkbox2.Checked
};
config.Parts.Add(part);
var configString = config.SaveToString();
File.WriteAllText(#"C:\link to my file", configString);
var configString = File.ReadAllText(#"C:\link to my file");
var config = DocConfig.LoadFromString(configString);
foreach (var part in config.Parts)
{
if (part.Title == "chapter1")
chekbox1.Checked = part.Checked;
if (part.Title == "chapter2")
checkbox2.Checked = part.Checked;
var serializer = new DataContractJsonSerializer(typeof(DocConfig));
var ms = new MemoryStream(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(jsonData));
var config = (DocConfig)serializer.ReadObject(ms);
return config;
}
}
public string SaveToString()
{
var serializer = new DataContractJsonSerializer(typeof(DocConfig));
var ms = new MemoryStream();
serializer.WriteObject(ms, this);
return Encoding.UTF8.GetString(ms.ToArray());
}
}
So I run my program, everything looks okey, but my file is still empty without any JSON format data. Maybe you could help me?
Thanks.

public class DocPart
{
public string Title { get; set; }
public bool Checked { get; set; }
}
public class DocConfig
{
public List<DocPart> Parts { get; set; }
public static DocConfig LoadFromString()
{
var config = new DocConfig();
config.Parts = new List<DocPart>();
var part1 = new DocPart
{
Title = "chapter1",
Checked = checkBox1.Checked
};
config.Parts.Add(part1);
var part2 = new DocPart
{
Title = "chapter2",
Checked = checkBox2.Checked
};
config.Parts.Add(part2);
var configString = config.SaveToString();
File.WriteAllText(#"d:\temp\test.json", configString);
configString = File.ReadAllText(#"d:\temp\test.json");
var ms = new MemoryStream(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(configString));
var serializer = new DataContractJsonSerializer(typeof(DocConfig));
config = (DocConfig)serializer.ReadObject(ms);
foreach (var part in config.Parts)
{
if (part.Title == "chapter1")
{
chekbox1.Checked = part.Checked;
Debug.WriteLine("chapter1" + part.Checked);
}
if (part.Title == "chapter2")
{
checkbox2.Checked = part.Checked;
Debug.WriteLine("chapter2" + part.Checked);
}
}
return config;
}
public string SaveToString()
{
var serializer = new DataContractJsonSerializer(typeof(DocConfig));
var ms = new MemoryStream();
serializer.WriteObject(ms, this);
return Encoding.UTF8.GetString(ms.ToArray());
}
}

Here's a really simple example I mocked up for you...
void Main()
{
const string filePath = #"C:\FilePath\json.txt";
const string testJson = #"{""glossary"": {""title"": ""example glossary"", ""GlossDiv"": {""title"": ""S"", ""GlossList"": {""GlossEntry"": {""ID"": ""SGML"", ""SortAs"": ""SGML"", ""GlossTerm"": ""Standard Generalized Markup Language"", ""Acronym"": ""SGML"", ""Abbrev"": ""ISO 8879:1986"", ""GlossDef"": {""para"": ""A meta-markup language, used to create markup languages such as DocBook."", ""GlossSeeAlso"": [""GML"", ""XML""]}, ""GlossSee"": ""markup""}}}}}";
// Now we have our Json Object...
SampleJson sample = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<SampleJson>(testJson);
// We convert it back into a string with indentation...
string jsonString = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(sample, Newtonsoft.Json.Formatting.Indented);
// Now simply save to file...
using (StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(filePath))
{
writer.WriteLine(jsonString);
}
Process.Start(filePath);
}
// The following classes are what the `testJson` string is deserialized into.
public class GlossDef
{
[JsonProperty("para")]
public string Para { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("GlossSeeAlso")]
public string[] GlossSeeAlso { get; set; }
}
public class GlossEntry
{
[JsonProperty("ID")]
public string ID { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("SortAs")]
public string SortAs { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("GlossTerm")]
public string GlossTerm { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("Acronym")]
public string Acronym { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("Abbrev")]
public string Abbrev { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("GlossDef")]
public GlossDef GlossDef { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("GlossSee")]
public string GlossSee { get; set; }
}
public class GlossList
{
[JsonProperty("GlossEntry")]
public GlossEntry GlossEntry { get; set; }
}
public class GlossDiv
{
[JsonProperty("title")]
public string Title { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("GlossList")]
public GlossList GlossList { get; set; }
}
public class Glossary
{
[JsonProperty("title")]
public string Title { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("GlossDiv")]
public GlossDiv GlossDiv { get; set; }
}
public class SampleJson
{
[JsonProperty("glossary")]
public Glossary Glossary { get; set; }
}

XML to custom Object

I have one xml file and I want to generate custom list from that xml using Linq.
here is my code. But I am not getting any records.Here is my code.
public class TemplateSettings {
public string DecimalSeparator { get; set; }
public string ThousandSeparator { get; set; }
public string DateSeparator { get; set; }
public string TimeSeparator { get; set; }
}
XML Here
<TemplateSetting>
<DecimalSeparator>1</DecimalSeparator>
<ThousandSeparator>2</ThousandSeparator>
<DateSeparator>3</DateSeparator>
<TimeSeparator>4</TimeSeparator>
<DateFormat>dd/MM/yyyy</DateFormat>
<ValueDelimiter>tr</ValueDelimiter>
<QuoteCharacter>r</QuoteCharacter>
<IsHeader>False</IsHeader>
</TemplateSetting>
And my code to get object from xml is
var a = (from x in objTemplateMasterEAL.TemplatSettingsXML.Elements("TemplateSetting")
select new TemplateSettings()
{
DateFormat = (string)x.Element("DateFormat"),
DecimalSeparator = (string)x.Element("DecimalSeparator"),
ThousandSeparator = (string)x.Element("ThousandSeparator"),
DateSeparator = (string)x.Element("DateSeparator"),
TimeSeparator = (string)x.Element("TimeSeparator"),
QuoteCharacter = (string)x.Element("QuoteCharacter"),
ValueDelimiter = (string)x.Element("ValueDelimiter"),
IsHeaderLine = (bool)x.Element("IsHeader")
}).ToList<TemplateSettings>();
Can any one suggest me what is wrong here ?

If your goal is just to deserialize the XML to object you can simply use this:
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader("Sample.xml"))
{
var serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(TemplateSetting));
var templateSetting = (TemplateSetting)serializer.Deserialize(reader);
}
}
}
[XmlRoot]
public class TemplateSetting
{
public string DecimalSeparator { get; set; }
public string ThousandSeparator { get; set; }
public string DateSeparator { get; set; }
public string TimeSeparator { get; set; }
}

I make only on one change and its working fine for me.
<TemplateSettings>
<TemplateSetting>
<DecimalSeparator>1</DecimalSeparator>
<ThousandSeparator>2</ThousandSeparator>
<DateSeparator>3</DateSeparator>
<TimeSeparator>4</TimeSeparator>
<DateFormat>dd/MM/yyyy</DateFormat>
<ValueDelimiter>tr</ValueDelimiter>
<QuoteCharacter>r</QuoteCharacter>
<IsHeader>False</IsHeader>
</TemplateSetting>
</TemplateSettings>

Deserialize XML into Object

Im trying to deserialize an xml response from from Amazons simple db service.
The xml is like this.
<ListDomainsResponse xmlns="http://sdb.amazonaws.com/doc/2009-04-15/">
<ListDomainsResult>
<DomainName>Logging</DomainName>
<DomainName>teets</DomainName>
</ListDomainsResult>
<ResponseMetadata>
<RequestId>9d48122e-1ddf-8771-b771-b36599838ea0</RequestId>
<BoxUsage>0.0000071759</BoxUsage>
</ResponseMetadata>
</ListDomainsResponse>
And the object i'm trying to serialize into is this.
public class ListDomainsResponse : Response
{
public ListDomainsResult ListDomainsResult { get; set; }
}
public class ListDomainsResult
{
public List<String> DomainNames { get; set; }
public string NextToken { get; set; }
}
public class Response
{
public static string NameSpace = "http://sdb.amazonaws.com/doc/2009-04-15/";
public ResponseMetadata ResponseMetadata{ get; set; }
}
public class ResponseMetadata
{
public string RequestId { get ; set; }
public string BoxUsage { get; set; }
}
My problem is that the response metadata is getting deserialized correctly but the List of strings called DomainName is not being deserialized, it is empty each time.
Can someone see what i'm doing wrong.
Updated with more code
public async Task<Response> ListDomains (ListDomainsRequest request)
{
using (Client = new HttpClient ()) {
ListDomainsRequestMarshaller marshaller = new ListDomainsRequestMarshaller ();
marshaller.Configure (request);
HttpResponseMessage responseMessage = Client.GetAsync (marshaller.Marshal ()).Result;
ListDomainsResponseUnMarshaller unmarshaler = new ListDomainsResponseUnMarshaller (responseMessage);
return unmarshaler.Response;
}
}
public ListDomainsResponseUnMarshaller (HttpResponseMessage message)
{
XDocument doc = XDocument.Load (message.Content.ReadAsStreamAsync ().Result);
if (message.StatusCode.Equals (HttpStatusCode.OK)) {
Serializer = new XmlSerializer (typeof(ListDomainsResponse), Response.NameSpace);
Response = (ListDomainsResponse)Serializer.Deserialize (doc.CreateReader ());
Response.HttpStatusCode = message.StatusCode;
Response.ContentLength = (long)message.Content.Headers.ContentLength;
} else {
Serializer = new XmlSerializer (typeof(Response));
Response = (Response)Serializer.Deserialize (doc.CreateReader ());
Response.HttpStatusCode = message.StatusCode;
Response.ContentLength = (long)message.Content.Headers.ContentLength;
}
Serializer = null;
}

Adding Attributes helped
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlTypeAttribute (Namespace = "http://sdb.amazonaws.com/doc/2009-04-15/")]
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlRootAttribute ("ListDomainsResponse", Namespace = "http://sdb.amazonaws.com/doc/2009-04-15/")]
public class ListDomainsResponse : Response
{
public ListDomainsResult ListDomainsResult { get; set; }
}
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlTypeAttribute (Namespace = "http://sdb.amazonaws.com/doc/2009-04-15/")]
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlRootAttribute (Namespace = "http://sdb.amazonaws.com/doc/2009-04-15/")]
public class ListDomainsResult
{
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute ("DomainName")]
public string[] DomainName { get; set; }
public string NextToken { get; set; }
}
