Parse Nested Json Array From Notification Data Using Gson In Android

I am getting data in JSON format from FCM notification. It has different format based on notification types as below: Format 1: accept_request: { 'alert': 'Accept Request By dri

Solution 1:

And finally I got solution by adding some drops of concepts. :)

I got many problems to converting in JSON with proper format like:

• Unterminated object at character
• MalformedJsonException

and Finally following code get worked for me.

if (remoteMessage.getData().size() > 0) {
        Log.d(TAG, "remoteMessage.getData() : " + remoteMessage.getData());

        // Map<String, String> stringStringMap = remoteMessage.getData();JSONObjectobject = newJSONObject(remoteMessage.getData());

        Log.d(TAG, "new JSONObject(remoteMessage.getData()) : " + object.toString());

        String finalJSON = object.toString().replaceAll("\\\\", "").replace("\"[", "[").replace("]\"", "]");

        Log.d(TAG, "Replace all back slash and invalid double quotes : " + finalJSON);

        CommonNotificationBean bean = newGson().fromJson(finalJSON, CommonNotificationBean.class);

        sendNotification(bean);
    }

Logcat:

remoteMessage.getData(): Getting data without double quotes.

Hope it will be help to others.

Solution 2:

It is simple, you should just have an abstract Notification object with the attributes alert, title and notification_type. And then, have specific implementations based on your possible types, so far:

• AcceptRequestNotification extends Notification with just an int booking_id (this is the one you already have, the one you called CommonNotificationBean)
• EndRequestNotification extends Notification which contains for example, an ArrayList called servicesList, this ArrayList should be of type Service and then, service would have the attributes: service_id, service_name, status, sub_category which is again another ArrayList of a custom type.

And then you just change your code to be:

// Check if message contains a data payload.if (remoteMessage.getData().size() > 0) {
    Log.d(TAG, "Message data payload: " + remoteMessage.getData().get("notification_type"));
    Map<String, String> params = remoteMessage.getData();

    JSONObjectobject = newJSONObject(params);

    Gson gson = newGson();
    JsonReader reader = newJsonReader(newStringReader(object.toString()));
    reader.setLenient(true);

    Class typeOf;

    switch(remoteMessage.getData().get("notification_type")) {
        case"accept_request":
            typeOf = AcceptRequestNotification.class;
        break;
        case"end_request":
            typeOf = EndRequestNotification.class;
        break;
    }

    //you can cast this object later on (to the corresponding custom subclass of Notification), based on the notif.getNotificationType() value.Notification notif = gson.fromJson(reader, typeOf);

    sendNotification(notif);
}
