HttP Post method is not working

I am trying to use this method i also tried to impot libriries but all in vain. Kindly help me. Not any HTTPClient library is showing on my andriod studio. Help would be appreciated
public String getHttpPost(String url,ContentValues) {
StringBuilder str = new StringBuilder();
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost(url);
try {
httpPost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(params));
HttpResponse response = client.execute(httpPost);
StatusLine statusLine = response.getStatusLine();
int statusCode = statusLine.getStatusCode();
if (statusCode == 200) { // Status OK
HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
InputStream content = entity.getContent();
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(content));
String line;
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
str.append(line);
}
} else {
Log.e("Log", "Failed to download result..");
}
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return str.toString();
}

Oh!Still you are using HttpClient.You can use HttpURLConnection,Volley etc. HttpClient class is now deprecated.Also add Internet permission, and dependensies in gradle file.
HttpURLConnection urlConnection = null;
try {
URL urlToRequest = new URL(_url);
urlConnection = (HttpURLConnection) urlToRequest.openConnection();
urlConnection.setConnectTimeout(30000);
urlConnection.setReadTimeout(30000);
urlConnection.setDoOutput(true);
urlConnection.setDoInput(true);
urlConnection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/json");
urlConnection.setRequestProperty("Accept", "application/json");
if (_authenticationKey != null) {
urlConnection.setRequestProperty(_authenticationKey, _authenticationValue);
}
if (_jsonPacket != null) {
OutputStreamWriter wr = new OutputStreamWriter(urlConnection.getOutputStream());
wr.write(_jsonPacket);
wr.flush();
}
int statusCode = urlConnection.getResponseCode();
JSONObject job;
if (statusCode != HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK) {
InputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(urlConnection.getErrorStream());
String responseString = getResponseString(in);
if (isJSONValid(responseString)) {
job = new JSONObject(responseString);
return new PostingResult(job, Constants.IntegerConstants.failureFromWebService, "");
} else {
return new PostingResult(null, statusCode, Constants.StringConstants.serverCommunicationFailed + "Response code = " + statusCode);
}
} else {
InputStream in = new BufferedInputStream(urlConnection.getInputStream());
String responseString = getResponseString(in);
if (isJSONValid(responseString)) {
job = new JSONObject(responseString);
return new PostingResult(job, Constants.IntegerConstants.success, "");
} else {
return new PostingResult(null, statusCode, Constants.StringConstants.serverCommunicationFailed + Constants.StringConstants.serverReadingResponseFailed);
}
}

You can use "Volley" library to make network call.
eg.
Add this line in build.gradle (Module:app)
compile 'com.mcxiaoke.volley:library:1.0.19'
As you are making network call you need internet permission. So add Internet permission line in Manifest.xml
Now you need to write a small method inside your class where you need to make network call and need to pass Hashmap to it. Hashmap contains all your post parameters.
private void getJSONResponse(HashMap<String, String> map, String url) {
pd.show();
JsonObjectRequest request = new JsonObjectRequest(Request.Method.POST, url, new JSONObject(map), new Response.Listener<JSONObject>() {
#Override
public void onResponse(JSONObject response) {
Log.d("Mayur", "Response : " + response);
//tv_res.setText(response.toString());
//pd.dismiss();
}
}, new Response.ErrorListener() {
#Override
public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Error Occured", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
//tv_res.setText("ERROR");
//pd.dismiss();
}
});
request.setRetryPolicy(new DefaultRetryPolicy(20000,DefaultRetryPolicy.DEFAULT_MAX_RETRIES,DefaultRetryPolicy.DEFAULT_BACKOFF_MULT));Volley.newRequestQueue(this).add(request);}
Now in your onCreate method or any other method just create a Hashmap of post parameters and pass it to this method with post url.
eg.
HashMap<String, String> map = new HashMap<String, String>();
map.put("fname", "Mayur");
map.put("lname", "Thakur");
getJSONResponse(map,<your url>);

How can I make an httppost request in Android?

I know this should have been easy to find online but none of the articles addressed my issue so I am coming to SO for some help.I am trying to make an httppost request in android to a wcf restful web service. I want to create an xml and then I want to post that to the service and get a response from the service.
I have created a WCF Rest service and it has a method to accept the xml and respond back.Here is the code for the method:
[OperationContract]
[WebInvoke(Method = "POST",
RequestFormat = WebMessageFormat.Xml,
ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Xml,
UriTemplate = "DoWork1/{xml}",
BodyStyle = WebMessageBodyStyle.Wrapped)]
XElement DoWork1(string xml);
public XElement DoWork1(string xml)
{
StreamReader reader = null;
XDocument xDocRequest = null;
string strXmlRequest = string.Empty;
reader = new StreamReader(xml);
strXmlRequest = reader.ReadToEnd();
xDocRequest = XDocument.Parse(strXmlRequest);
string response = "<Result>OK</Result>";
return XElement.Parse(response);
}
Here is android code to post xml :
String myXML = "<? xml version=1.0> <Request> <Elemtnt> <data id=\"1\">E1203</data> <data id=\"2\">E1204</data> </Element> </Request>";
HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
// replace with your url
HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost("http://192.168.0.15/Httppost/Service1.svc/DoWork1/"+myXML);
This code crasehes throwing an illegal character in the path exception.
How can I make post an xml file to this service from android. Any suggestions would be really appreciated.

public class HTTPPostActivity extends Activity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
makePostRequest();
}
private void makePostRequest() {
HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
// replace with your url
HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost("www.example.com");
//Post Data
List<NameValuePair> nameValuePair = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>(2);
nameValuePair.add(new BasicNameValuePair("username", "test_user"));
nameValuePair.add(new BasicNameValuePair("password", "123456789"));
//Encoding POST data
try {
httpPost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePair));
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
// log exception
e.printStackTrace();
}
//making POST request.
try {
HttpResponse response = httpClient.execute(httpPost);
// write response to log
Log.d("Http Post Response:", response.toString());
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
// Log exception
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
// Log exception
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}

To connect to WCF service on android you have to use external library like ksoap.
enter link description here
Then you can adapt for your needs this class:
public abstract class SoapWorker extends AsyncTask<SoapWorker.SoapRequest,Void,Object> {
public static class SoapRequest{
private LinkedHashMap<String,Object> params;
private String methodName;
private String namespace;
private String actionName;
private String url;
public SoapRequest(String url, String methodName,String namespace){
this.methodName = methodName;
this.params = new LinkedHashMap<>();
this.namespace=namespace;
this.actionName=this.namespace + "IService/" + methodName;
this.url=url;
}
public void addParam(String key,Object value){
this.params.put(key,value);
}
}
#Override
protected Object doInBackground(SoapRequest input) {
try {
SoapObject request = new SoapObject(input.namespace, input.methodName);
for(Map.Entry<String, Object> entry : input.params.entrySet()){
request.addProperty(entry.getKey(),entry.getValue());
}
SoapSerializationEnvelope envelope = new SoapSerializationEnvelope(SoapEnvelope.VER11);
envelope.dotNet = true;
envelope.setOutputSoapObject(request);
HttpTransportSE androidHttpTransport = new HttpTransportSE(input.url);
androidHttpTransport.call(input.actionName, envelope);
input.params.clear();
return parseResponse(envelope.getResponse());
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("SoapWorker", "error " + e);
return e;
}
}
#WorkerThread
public abstract Object parseResponse(Object response);
}
Use this class like:
SoapWorker.SoapRequest request = new SoapWorker.SoapRequest(URL,METHOD_NAME,NAMESPACE);
request.addParam(KEY,VALUE);
....
request.addParam(KEY,VALUE);
SoapWorker worker = new SoapWorker(){
#Override
public Object parseResponse(Object response) {
if(response==null)
return null;
//parse response
// this is background thread
return response;
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(Object o) {
super.onPostExecute(o);
// this is ui thread
//update your ui
}
};
worker.execute(request);
Use this asynck task only in application context.Pass data to Activity / fragment only using EventBus from green roboot or otto.

How to send json data to POST restful service

I want to call a rest webservice with POST method.Below is the service url and its parameters which I need to pass
Rest Service: https://url/SSOServer/SSO.svc/RestService/Login
Json Object {"ProductCode":"AB","DeviceType":"android Simulator","UserName":"","ModuleCode":"AB_MOBILE","DeviceId":"device-id","Version":"1.0.0.19","CustomerCode":"w","Password":""}
Here is my post request code:
public void sendHttpPost() throws ClientProtocolException, IOException{
HttpPost httpPostRequest = new HttpPost(url + buildParams());
// add headers
Iterator it = headers.entrySet().iterator();
Iterator itP = params.entrySet().iterator();
while (it.hasNext()) {
Entry header = (Entry) it.next();
httpPostRequest.addHeader((String)header.getKey(), (String)header.getValue());
}
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpResponse resp;
resp = client.execute(httpPostRequest);
this.respCode = resp.getStatusLine().getStatusCode();
Log.i(TAG, "response code: " + getResponseCode());
this.responsePhrase = resp.getStatusLine().getReasonPhrase();
Log.i(TAG, "error msg: " + getErrorMsg());
HttpEntity entity = resp.getEntity();
if (entity != null){
InputStream is = entity.getContent();
//Header contentEncoding = resp.getFirstHeader("Content-encoding");
//Log.i(TAG, "endoding" + contentEncoding.getValue());
response = convertStreamToString(is);
//response = response.substring(1,response.length()-1);
//response = "{" + response + "}";
Log.i(TAG, "response: " + response);
is.close();

Q: how to add json data to this request?
A: Set your content type, length and write the payload.
Here's an example:
http://localtone.blogspot.com/2009/07/post-json-using-android-and-httpclient.html
JSONObject holder = new JSONObject();
...
JSONObject data = new JSONObject();
...
// Some example name=value pairs
while(iter.hasNext()) {
Map.Entry pairs = (Map.Entry)iter.next();
String key = (String)pairs.getKey();
Map m = (Map)pairs.getValue();
JSONObject data = new JSONObject();
Iterator iter2 = m.entrySet().iterator();
while(iter2.hasNext()) {
Map.Entry pairs2 = (Map.Entry)iter2.next();
data.put((String)pairs2.getKey(), (String)pairs2.getValue());
}
holder.put(key, data);
}
...
StringEntity se = new StringEntity(holder.toString());
...
httpost.setHeader("Accept", "application/json");
httpost.setHeader("Content-type", "application/json");
...

Android GET and POST Request

Can anyone point me to a good implementation of a way to send GET and POST Requests. They are alot of ways to do these, and i am looking for the best implementation. Secondly is there a generic way to send both these methods rather then using two different ways. After all the GET method merely has the params in the Query Strings, whereas the POST method uses the headers for the Params.
Thanks.

You can use the HttpURLConnection class (in java.net) to send a POST or GET HTTP request. It is the same as any other application that might want to send an HTTP request. The code to send an Http Request would look like this:
import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;
public class SendPostRequest {
public static void main(String[] args) throws MalformedURLException, IOException {
URL reqURL = new URL("http://www.stackoverflow.com/"); //the URL we will send the request to
HttpURLConnection request = (HttpURLConnection) (reqUrl.openConnection());
String post = "this will be the post data that you will send"
request.setDoOutput(true);
request.addRequestProperty("Content-Length", Integer.toString(post.length)); //add the content length of the post data
request.addRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"); //add the content type of the request, most post data is of this type
request.setMethod("POST");
request.connect();
OutputStreamWriter writer = new OutputStreamWriter(request.getOutputStream()); //we will write our request data here
writer.write(post);
writer.flush();
}
}
A GET request will look a little bit different, but much of the code is the same. You don't have to worry about doing output with streams or specifying the content-length or content-type:
import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;
public class SendPostRequest {
public static void main(String[] args) throws MalformedURLException, IOException {
URL reqURL = new URL("http://www.stackoverflow.com/"); //the URL we will send the request to
HttpURLConnection request = (HttpURLConnection) (reqUrl.openConnection());
request.setMethod("GET");
request.connect();
}
}

I prefer using dedicated class to do GET/POST and any HTTP connections or requests.
Moreover I use HttpClient to execute these GET/POST methods.
Below is sample from my project. I needed thread-safe execution so there is ThreadSafeClientConnManager.
There is an example of using GET (fetchData) and POST (sendOrder)
As you can see execute is general method for executing HttpUriRequest - it can be POST or GET.
public final class ClientHttpClient {
private static DefaultHttpClient client;
private static CookieStore cookieStore;
private static HttpContext httpContext;
static {
cookieStore = new BasicCookieStore();
httpContext = new BasicHttpContext();
httpContext.setAttribute(ClientContext.COOKIE_STORE, cookieStore);
client = getThreadSafeClient();
HttpParams params = new BasicHttpParams();
HttpConnectionParams.setConnectionTimeout(params, AppConstants.CONNECTION_TIMEOUT);
HttpConnectionParams.setSoTimeout(params, AppConstants.SOCKET_TIMEOUT);
client.setParams(params);
}
private static DefaultHttpClient getThreadSafeClient() {
DefaultHttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
ClientConnectionManager mgr = client.getConnectionManager();
HttpParams params = client.getParams();
client = new DefaultHttpClient(new ThreadSafeClientConnManager(params, mgr.getSchemeRegistry()),
params);
return client;
}
private ClientHttpClient() {
}
public static String execute(HttpUriRequest http) throws IOException {
BufferedReader reader = null;
try {
StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
HttpResponse response = client.execute(http, httpContext);
StatusLine statusLine = response.getStatusLine();
int statusCode = statusLine.getStatusCode();
HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
InputStream content = entity.getContent();
reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(content, CHARSET));
String line = null;
while((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
builder.append(line);
}
if(statusCode != 200) {
throw new IOException("statusCode=" + statusCode + ", " + http.getURI().toASCIIString()
+ ", " + builder.toString());
}
return builder.toString();
}
finally {
if(reader != null) {
reader.close();
}
}
}
public static List<OverlayItem> fetchData(Info info) throws JSONException, IOException {
List<OverlayItem> out = new LinkedList<OverlayItem>();
HttpGet request = buildFetchHttp(info);
String json = execute(request);
if(json.trim().length() <= 2) {
return out;
}
try {
JSONObject responseJSON = new JSONObject(json);
if(responseJSON.has("auth_error")) {
throw new IOException("auth_error");
}
}
catch(JSONException e) {
//ok there was no error, because response is JSONArray - not JSONObject
}

HttpGet get = new HttpGet(builder.toString());
return get;
}
public static int sendOrder(OrderInfo info) throws IOException {
HttpPost post = new HttpPost(SEND_ORDER_URL);
List<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>(1);
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("id", "" + info.getTaxi().getId()));
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("address", info.getAddressText()));

nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("lat", "" + info.getOrderLocation().getLatitudeE6()));
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("lon", "" + info.getOrderLocation().getLongitudeE6()));
post.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs));
String response = execute(post);
if(response == null || response.trim().length() == 0) {
throw new IOException("sendOrder_response_empty");
}
try {
JSONObject json = new JSONObject(response);
int orderId = json.getInt("orderId");
return orderId;
}
catch(JSONException e) {
throw new IOException("sendOrder_parsing: " + response);
}
}
EDIT
The execute method is public because sometimes I use custom (or dynamic) GET/POST requests.
If you have URL object you can pass to execute method:
HttpGet request = new HttpGet(url.toString());
execute(request);

As you said: the GET-Parameters are in the URL - So you can use a loadUrl() on your Webview to send them.
[..].loadUrl("http://www.example.com/data.php?param1=value1&param2=value2&...");

The developer training docs have a good example on GET requests. You're responsible for adding the query parameters to the URL.
Post is similar, but as you said, quite different. The HttpConnectionURLConnection class can do both, and it's easy to just set the post body with an output stream.

protected String doInBackground(String... strings) {
String response = null;
String data = null;

data = URLEncoder.encode("CustomerEmail", "UTF-8")

How can I send HTTP Basic Authentication headers in Android?

I am not sure how to send HTTP Auth headers.
I have the following HttpClient to get requests, but not sure how I can send requests?
public class RestClient extends AsyncTask<String, Void, JSONObject> {
private String convertStreamToString(InputStream is) {
/*
* To convert the InputStream to String we use the
* BufferedReader.readLine() method. We iterate until the
* BufferedReader return null which means there's no more data to
* read. Each line will appended to a StringBuilder and returned as
* String.
*/
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
String line = null;
try {
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
sb.append(line + "\n");
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
try {
is.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
return sb.toString();
}
/*
* This is a test function which will connects to a given rest service
* and prints it's response to Android Log with labels "Praeda".
*/
public JSONObject connect(String url) {
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
// Prepare a request object
HttpGet httpget = new HttpGet(url);
// Execute the request
HttpResponse response;
try {
response = httpclient.execute(httpget);
// Examine the response status
Log.i("Praeda", response.getStatusLine().toString());
// Get hold of the response entity
HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
if (entity != null) {
// A Simple JSON Response Read
InputStream instream = entity.getContent();
String result = convertStreamToString(instream);
// A Simple JSONObject Creation
JSONObject json = new JSONObject(result);
// Closing the input stream will trigger connection release
instream.close();
return json;
}
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
#Override
protected JSONObject doInBackground(String... urls) {
return connect(urls[0]);
}
#Override
protected void onPostExecute(JSONObject json) {
}
}

This is covered in the HttpClient documentation and in their sample code.

Maybe the documentation of HttpClient can help: link

Since Android compiles HttpClient 4.0.x instead of 3.x, below snippet is for your reference.
if (authState.getAuthScheme() == null) {
AuthScope authScope = new Au HttpRequestInterceptor preemptiveAuth = new HttpRequestInterceptor() {
public void process(final HttpRequest request, final HttpContext context) throws HttpException, IOException {
AuthState authState = (AuthState) context.getAttribute(ClientContext.TARGET_AUTH_STATE);
CredentialsProvider credsProvider = (CredentialsProvider) context.getAttribute(
ClientContext.CREDS_PROVIDER);
HttpHost targetHost = (HttpHost) context.getAttribute(ExecutionContext.HTTP_TARGET_HOST);thScope(targetHost.getHostName(), targetHost.getPort());
Credentials creds = credsProvider.getCredentials(authScope);
if (creds != null) {
authState.setAuthScheme(new BasicScheme());
authState.setCredentials(creds);
}
}
}
};
DefaultHttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
httpclient.addRequestInterceptor(preemptiveAuth, 0);
