Trying best how to take the following classes and deserialize a Json file to return each class values back to Simpl+. I am able to receive the Total value but anything in a list I am at a lost.
public class Client
{
public string clientId { get; set; }
public string locale { get; set; }
public string location { get; set; }
public string auxiliaryId { get; set; }
public string description { get; set; }
public string type { get; set; }
public string typeDescription { get; set; }
public Hardware hardware { get; set; }
public Network network { get; set; }
}
public class Hardware
{
public string type { get; set; }
public string softwareVersion { get; set; }
public string serialNumber { get; set; }
public string hardwareVersion { get; set; }
public string model { get; set; }
}
public class Network
{
public string ip { get; set; }
public string mac { get; set; }
public object homepage { get; set; }
public string dhcpSubnet { get; set; }
}
public class Result
{
public List<Client> clients { get; set; }
public string total { get; set; }
public int limit { get; set; }
public int page { get; set; }
}
public class Root
{
public string jsonrpc { get; set; }
public object id { get; set; }
public Result result { get; set; }
}
I was able to resolve this by adding the following to the foreach statement:
args.MyIndex = (ushort)(rootObject.TriplePlayResult.clients.IndexOf(item) + 1);
I have some problems deserializing the following JSON string. On all of my other responses it works really good but not for this one. I tried so many different things and I checked the Stream class about 100 times. I also have used a generated class from json2csharp but all my deserialized Data is NULL.
My code to get the response:
public Stream getStream(string userID)
{
var request = GetRequest("streams/{channelID}", Method.GET);
request.AddUrlSegment("channelID", userID);
var response = restClient.Execute<Stream>(request);
return response.Data;
}
response.Content shows me as example something like that:
{
"stream":
{
"_id":25649270464,
"game":"test",
"broadcast_platform":"other",
"community_id":"xxxxxxxxx",
"community_ids":["xxxxxx"],

},
"channel":

"views":2292173,
"followers":55672,

1) use JSON Utils (https://jsonutils.com/) to generate your C# classes (for attributes select JsonProperty)
2) Newtonsoft.Json is pretty much the standard best library to work with JSON formats in .NET, you can get it from nuget.
3) The code should look something like this, and deserialization should work without any problems:
class Program
{
private static void Main(string[] args)
{
var myObj = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<JsonDef>(json);
Console.Read();
}
}
public class Preview

[JsonProperty("small")]

[JsonProperty("display_name")]
public string display_name { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("game")]
public string game { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("language")]
public string language { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("_id")]
public int _id { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("name")]
public string name { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("created_at")]

{

public Stream stream { get; set; }
}
It's because of the DateTime format of the JSON. It is not in a well-formed .Net DateTime. so you can get it as a string and then convert it the way you want or change its format into a readable .Net one.
I'm trying to Deserialize some json using JsonConver.DeserializeObject. however it's not working on some json from the api I'm using. here is a link that does not work: https://api.pokemontcg.io/v1/cards?setCode=smp
and here is a link that does work. https://api.pokemontcg.io/v1/cards?setCode=sm2
I'm not sure why it sometimes works and sometimes not. The data that comes out of it is very similar to each other, just different cards.
Here is the code:
public static async Task<T> GetDataAsync<T>(this HttpClient client, string address, string querystring)
where T : class
{
var uri = address;
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(querystring))
{
uri += querystring;
}
var httpMessage = await client.GetStringAsync(uri);
var jsonObject = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<T>(httpMessage);
return jsonObject;
}
Now my card class
namespace CardAppReal.Lib.Models
{
public class Card
{
public string id { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public string imageUrl { get; set; }
public string imageUrlHiRes { get; set; }
public string supertype { get; set; } // if pokemon, trainer or energy
public string setcode { get; set; }
public int number { get; set; }
public string set { get; set; }
}
}
With a root
using System.Collections.Generic;
using CardAppReal.Lib.Models;
namespace CardAppReal.Lib.Entities
{
public class RootCard
{
public List<Card> cards { get; set; }
}
}
If u could help me out I would find it amazing.
I have tested your json.
this is the Model
namespace Test
{
public class Attack
{
public List<string> cost { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public string text { get; set; }
public string damage { get; set; }
public int convertedEnergyCost { get; set; }
}
public class Weakness
{
public string type { get; set; }
public string value { get; set; }
}
public class Resistance
{
public string type { get; set; }
public string value { get; set; }
}
public class Ability
{
public string name { get; set; }
public string text { get; set; }
public string type { get; set; }
}
public class Card
{
public string id { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
public int nationalPokedexNumber { get; set; }
public string imageUrl { get; set; }
public string imageUrlHiRes { get; set; }
public string subtype { get; set; }
public string supertype { get; set; }
public string hp { get; set; }
public List<string> retreatCost { get; set; }
public string number { get; set; }
public string artist { get; set; }
public string rarity { get; set; }
public string series { get; set; }
public string set { get; set; }
public string setCode { get; set; }
public List<string> types { get; set; }
public List<Attack> attacks { get; set; }
public List<Weakness> weaknesses { get; set; }
public List<Resistance> resistances { get; set; }
public string evolvesFrom { get; set; }
public Ability ability { get; set; }
public List<string> text { get; set; }
}
public class RootObject
{
public List<Card> cards { get; set; }
}
}
And this is how I call the Deserialize
RootObject root = Newtonsoft.Json.JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RootObject>(RootObject.WRONG_JSON);
(NB WRONG_JSON is your json string...)
I'm having some issues handling a JSON array, Here is what I've tried. I have tried also using <List<jsonResponse.RootObect> and get the same result.
I'm using JSON.NET
C#:
jsonResponse.RootObject deserializedResponse = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<jsonResponse.RootObject>(Globals.jsonResponse);

The problem was with my class not having the correct properties, it also turns out that the UPS api doesn't send a static type response and it can be different each time.. requiring a new class to deserialize into. I have not found a way to make the class flexible
I'm getting the following exception when using this bit of code to deserialize a JSON response from CrunchBase. The weird thing is it only happens to certain pages that are being deserialized even though both the results that work fine and the ones that don't both have empty [], empty"", and null values in key:value pairs. How can I cast or correct my mistake?
Exception gets thrown here:
JsonSerializer serializer = new JsonSerializer();
RootObject ro = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RootObject>(response);
The inner exception is:
InnerException:
Message=Could not cast or convert from {null} to System.Int32.
Source=Newtonsoft.Json
Thanks for your eyes in advance!
Update:
as asked for the structure of the root object and the additional objects on that JSON endpoint. These were generated by http://json2csharp.com/ after putting the URL of the JSON endpoint into it.
The JSON is long so here are two example links: this one works without error http://api.crunchbase.com/v/1/company/kiip.js , while this other (and others) throws the exception http://api.crunchbase.com/v/1/company/tata-communications.js

Json.NET supports JSON Schema. You could create a schema with all the required properties marked and validate incoming JSON against it before deserializing. In this you can check if value is null you can make change it to some default value.
Hope this works for you.
