Generic HTTP request class for Android. You can use it for API calls.
- Download or pull the APIRequest file.
- Put the class in your package.
- Rename the package to be your package name instead of null
The request type is by default POST. (No need to call setRequestType if it is POST)
new APIRequest(new APIRequest.Delegate() {
@Override
public void onPreExecute() {
// do anything before executing the request. (UI thread)
}
@Override
public void onPostExecute(JSONObject object) {
// called after the request is executed, with the result object
}
}).setBaseURL("https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/directions/json?")
.setRequestType("POST")
.addParam("origin","torronto")
.addParam("destination","Montreal")
.executeRequest();If you have a full url you can call the withUrl method:
new APIRequest(new APIRequest.Delegate() {
@Override
public void onPreExecute() {
// do anything before executing the request. (UI thread)
}
@Override
public void onPostExecute(JSONObject object) {
// called after the request is executed, with the result object
}
}).withUrl("https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/directions/json?origin=Toronto&destination=Montreal")
.executeRequest();If you want to send a payload JSON object call the attachJSON method:
new APIRequest(new APIRequest.Delegate() {
@Override
public void onPreExecute() {
// do anything before executing the request. (UI thread)
}
@Override
public void onPostExecute(JSONObject object) {
// called after the request is executed, with the result object
}
}).withUrl("https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/directions/json?origin=Toronto&destination=Montreal")
.attachJSON(json.toString())
.executeRequest();
