2,493 PointsAndroid Lists and adapters AccuWeather example.
The following is an example on how to convert Stormy to use jsonHourlyData from the AccuWeather API in the Android Lists and adapters lesson. The original JSONDATA from the Dark Sky API included current weather data and the hourly forecast in a single data set. AccuWeather separates current weather and the hourly forecast into two separate data sets requiring two okhttp3 requests as opposed to one request.
A few things to take note to I keep private Current current; instead of changing to private Forecast forecast; I added
String hourlyForecast = "https://dataservice.accuweather.com/forecasts/v1/hourly/12hour/" + locationKey + "?apikey=" + apiKey + "&language=en-us&details=false&metric=false";
I did not use forecast = parseForecastData(jsonData); or Current current = forecast.getCurrent(); in the first request but instead used the original code current = getCurrentDetails(jsonData); I added the second okhttp3 request under the first.
// building second request to get hourly data from AccuWeather
Request hourlyAccuWeather = new Request.Builder().url(hourlyForecast).build();
Call secondCall = client.newCall(hourlyAccuWeather);
secondCall.enqueue(new Callback() {
@Override
public void onFailure(@NotNull Call call, @NotNull IOException e) {
}
@Override
public void onResponse(@NotNull Call call, @NotNull Response response) throws IOException {
try {
String jsonHourData = response.body().string();
Log.v(TAG, jsonHourData);
if (response.isSuccessful()) {
parseForecastData(jsonHourData);
} else {alertUserAboutError();}
} catch (IOException e) {Log.e(TAG, "JSON Exception caught: ", e);}
catch (JSONException e) {Log.e(TAG, "JSON Exception caught: ", e);}
}
});
And I combined the data from the two classes into the Forecast class.
private Forecast parseForecastData(String jsonData) throws JSONException {
Forecast forecast = new Forecast();
forecast.setCurrent(current); // not ‘getCurrentDetails(jsonData)’
forecast.setHourlyForcast(getHourlyForcast(jsonData));
return forecast;
}
I looped through the JSON Hourly data as follows remember the data is organized different then what is in the lesson.
private Hour[] getHourlyForcast(String jsonData) throws JSONException {
JSONArray jsonArray = new JSONArray(jsonData);
Hour[] hours = new Hour[jsonArray.length()];
for(int i=0; i < jsonArray.length(); i++) {
JSONObject row = jsonArray.getJSONObject(i);
Hour hour = new Hour();
hour.setSummary(row.getString("IconPhrase"));
hour.setIcon(row.getInt("WeatherIcon"));
hour.setTime(row.getLong("EpochDateTime"));
hour.setTimeZone("America/New_York");
JSONObject temperature = row.getJSONObject("Temperature");
hour.setTemperature(temperature.getDouble("Value"));
hours[i] = hour;
}
return hours;
}

Here is the Hour class some of the variables have different types required by the AccuWeather API
package com.example.stormy.weather;

private String summary;
private double temperature;
private int icon;
private String timeZone;
public long getTime() {
return time;
}
public void setTime(long time) {

}
public String getSummary() {

}
And here is the Forecast class
package com.example.stormy.weather;
public class Forecast {
private Current current;
private Hour[] hourlyForcast;
public Current getCurrent() {
return current;
}
public void setCurrent(Current current) {
