OkHttp Post Body as JSON

So, back when I was using Koush's Ion, I was able to add a json body to my posts with a simple .setJsonObjectBody(json).asJsonObject()

I'm moving over to OkHttp, and I really don't see a good way to do that. I'm getting error 400's all over the place.

Anyone have any ideas?

I've even tried manually formatting it as a json string.

String reason = menuItem.getTitle().toString();
JsonObject json = new JsonObject();
json.addProperty("Reason", reason);


String url = mBaseUrl + "/" + id + "/report";


Request request = new Request.Builder()
.header("X-Client-Type", "Android")
.url(url)
.post(RequestBody
.create(MediaType
.parse("application/json"),
"{\"Reason\": \"" + reason + "\"}"
))
.build();


client.newCall(request).enqueue(new com.squareup.okhttp.Callback() {
@Override
public void onFailure(Request request, IOException throwable) {
throwable.printStackTrace();
}


@Override
public void onResponse(Response response) throws IOException {
if (!response.isSuccessful()) throw new IOException(
"Unexpected code " + response);
runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
Toast.makeText(context, "Report Received", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});
}
});


/*Ion.with(getContext(), url)
.setHeader("X-Client-Type", "Android")
.setJsonObjectBody(json)
.asJsonObject()
.setCallback(new FutureCallback<JsonObject>() {
@Override
public void onCompleted(Exception e, JsonObject result) {
Toast.makeText(context, "Report Received", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
});*/

Just use JSONObject.toString(); method. And have a look at OkHttp's tutorial:

public static final MediaType JSON
= MediaType.parse("application/json; charset=utf-8");


OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient();


String post(String url, String json) throws IOException {
RequestBody body = RequestBody.create(json, JSON); // new
// RequestBody body = RequestBody.create(JSON, json); // old
Request request = new Request.Builder()
.url(url)
.post(body)
.build();
Response response = client.newCall(request).execute();
return response.body().string();
}

Another approach is by using FormBody.Builder().
Here's an example of callback:

Callback loginCallback = new Callback() {
@Override
public void onFailure(Call call, IOException e) {
try {
Log.i(TAG, "login failed: " + call.execute().code());
} catch (IOException e1) {
e1.printStackTrace();
}
}


@Override
public void onResponse(Call call, Response response) throws IOException {
// String loginResponseString = response.body().string();
try {
JSONObject responseObj = new JSONObject(response.body().string());
Log.i(TAG, "responseObj: " + responseObj);
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
// Log.i(TAG, "loginResponseString: " + loginResponseString);
}
};

Then, we create our own body:

RequestBody formBody = new FormBody.Builder()
.add("username", userName)
.add("password", password)
.add("customCredential", "")
.add("isPersistent", "true")
.add("setCookie", "true")
.build();


OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient.Builder()
.addInterceptor(this)
.build();
Request request = new Request.Builder()
.url(loginUrl)
.post(formBody)
.build();

Finally, we call the server:

client.newCall(request).enqueue(loginCallback);

You can create your own JSONObject then toString().

Remember run it in the background thread like doInBackground in AsyncTask.

OkHttp version > 4:

import okhttp3.MediaType.Companion.toMediaType


// create your json here
JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject();
try {
jsonObject.put("KEY1", "VALUE1");
jsonObject.put("KEY2", "VALUE2");
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}


val client = OkHttpClient()
val mediaType = "application/json; charset=utf-8".toMediaType()
val body = jsonObject.toString().toRequestBody(mediaType)
val request: Request = Request.Builder()
.url("https://YOUR_URL/")
.post(body)
.build()


var response: Response? = null
try {
response = client.newCall(request).execute()
val resStr = response.body!!.string()
} catch (e: IOException) {
e.printStackTrace()
}
   

OkHttp version 3:

// create your json here
JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject();
try {
jsonObject.put("KEY1", "VALUE1");
jsonObject.put("KEY2", "VALUE2");
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}


OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient();
MediaType JSON = MediaType.parse("application/json; charset=utf-8");
// put your json here
RequestBody body = RequestBody.create(JSON, jsonObject.toString());
Request request = new Request.Builder()
.url("https://YOUR_URL/")
.post(body)
.build();


Response response = null;
try {
response = client.newCall(request).execute();
String resStr = response.body().string();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}

In kotlin, in okhttp v4.* I got it working that way


// import the extensions!
import okhttp3.MediaType.Companion.toMediaType
import okhttp3.RequestBody.Companion.toRequestBody


// ...


json : String = "..."


val JSON : MediaType = "application/json; charset=utf-8".toMediaType()
val jsonBody: RequestBody = json.toRequestBody(JSON)


// go on with Request.Builder() etc
