3,050 PointsUnable to get the API Response from darksky API, the response always goes to onFailure
I have copied the code from the video; however, I am not able to get the JSON response in my logcat. I added a log message in my onFailure and I think the code always goes to the onFailure method. Not too sure why I can't connect to the API, I am pretty sure my URL is correct too as I tried simply copying and pasting from the website too.
Code:
package com.dhruvmittal.stormy;
import androidx.appcompat.app.AlertDialog; import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle; import android.util.Log;
import org.jetbrains.annotations.NotNull;
import java.io.IOException;
import okhttp3.Call; import okhttp3.Callback; import okhttp3.OkHttpClient; import okhttp3.Request; import okhttp3.Response;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
public static final String TAG = MainActivity.class.getSimpleName();
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
String apiKey = "64a62ee416652c32f316cae864d77ada";
double latitude = 37.8267;
double longitude = -122.4233;
String forecastURL = "https://api.darksky.net/forecast/"+apiKey+"/"+latitude+","+longitude;
//String forecastURL = "https://api.darksky.net/forecast/e614f7a3d13a567393ceed653c28de35/37.8267,-122.4233";
OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient();
Request request = new Request.Builder().url(forecastURL).build();
Call call = client.newCall(request);
call.enqueue(new Callback() {
@Override
public void onFailure(@NotNull Call call, @NotNull IOException e) {
Log.v(TAG, "CallBack Failed");
}
@Override
public void onResponse(@NotNull Call call, @NotNull Response response) throws IOException {
try {
Log.v(TAG, response.body().string());
if (response.isSuccessful()){
}else{
alerUserAboutError();
}
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e(TAG, "Exception Caught: ",e );
}
}
});
Log.d(TAG, "Main UI code is running!");
}
private void alerUserAboutError() {
AlertDialogFragment dialog = new AlertDialogFragment();
dialog.show(getFragmentManager(), "error_dialog");
}
}
