Step 1 : Hello guys, here is simple XMLParser class which is used to parse almost all xml files. Just keep this file in your project and pass xml url in it.
XMLParser.java :
package com.umesh.xmlparsing;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.StringReader;
import java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder;
import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory;
import javax.xml.parsers.ParserConfigurationException;
import org.apache.http.HttpEntity;
import org.apache.http.HttpResponse;
import org.apache.http.client.ClientProtocolException;
import org.apache.http.client.methods.HttpPost;
import org.apache.http.impl.client.DefaultHttpClient;
import org.apache.http.util.EntityUtils;
import org.w3c.dom.Document;
import org.w3c.dom.Element;
import org.w3c.dom.Node;
import org.w3c.dom.NodeList;
import org.xml.sax.InputSource;
import org.xml.sax.SAXException;
import android.util.Log;
public class XMLParser {
// constructor
public XMLParser() {
}
// Getting XML from URL making HTTP request param url string
public String getXmlFromUrl(String url) {
String xml = null;
try {
// defaultHttpClient
DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost(url);
HttpResponse httpResponse = httpClient.execute(httpPost);
HttpEntity httpEntity = httpResponse.getEntity();
xml = EntityUtils.toString(httpEntity);
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
// return XML
return xml;
}
// Getting XML DOM element param XML string
public Document getDomElement(String xml){
Document doc = null;
DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
try {
DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
InputSource is = new InputSource();
is.setCharacterStream(new StringReader(xml));
doc = db.parse(is);
} catch (ParserConfigurationException e) {
Log.e("Error: ", e.getMessage());
return null;
} catch (SAXException e) {
Log.e("Error: ", e.getMessage());
return null;
} catch (IOException e) {
Log.e("Error: ", e.getMessage());
return null;
}
return doc;
}
// Getting node value param elem element
public final String getElementValue( Node elem ) {
Node child;
if( elem != null){
if (elem.hasChildNodes()){
for( child = elem.getFirstChild(); child != null; child = child.getNextSibling() ){
if( child.getNodeType() == Node.TEXT_NODE ){
return child.getNodeValue();
}
}
}
}
return "";
}
// Getting node value param Element node param key string
public String getValue(Element item, String str) {
NodeList n = item.getElementsByTagName(str);
return this.getElementValue(n.item(0));
}
}
Step 2 :This will be any class to parse xml.
AndroidXMLParsingActivity.java
package com.umesh.xmlparsing;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.HashMap;
import org.w3c.dom.Document;
import org.w3c.dom.Element;
import org.w3c.dom.NodeList;
import android.app.ListActivity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.AdapterView;
import android.widget.AdapterView.OnItemClickListener;
import android.widget.ListAdapter;
import android.widget.ListView;
import android.widget.SimpleAdapter;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class AndroidXMLParsingActivity extends ListActivity {
// All static variables
static final String URL = "http://api.androidhive.info/pizza/?format=xml";
// XML node keys
static final String KEY_ITEM = "item"; // parent node
static final String KEY_ID = "id";
static final String KEY_NAME = "name";
static final String KEY_COST = "cost";
static final String KEY_DESC = "description";
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main); //we can comment this line, because we are extending ListActivity
ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> menuItems = new ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>>();
XMLParser parser = new XMLParser();
String xml = parser.getXmlFromUrl(URL); // getting XML
Document doc = parser.getDomElement(xml); // getting DOM element
NodeList nl = doc.getElementsByTagName(KEY_ITEM);
// looping through all item nodes <item>
for (int i = 0; i < nl.getLength(); i++) {
// creating new HashMap
HashMap<String, String> map = new HashMap<String, String>();
Element e = (Element) nl.item(i);
// adding each child node to HashMap key => value
map.put(KEY_ID, parser.getValue(e, KEY_ID));
map.put(KEY_NAME, parser.getValue(e, KEY_NAME));
map.put(KEY_COST, "Rs." + parser.getValue(e, KEY_COST));
map.put(KEY_DESC, parser.getValue(e, KEY_DESC));
// adding HashList to ArrayList
menuItems.add(map);
}
// Adding menuItems to ListView
ListAdapter adapter = new SimpleAdapter(this, menuItems,
R.layout.list_item,
new String[] { KEY_NAME, KEY_DESC, KEY_COST }, new int[] {
R.id.name, R.id.desciption, R.id.cost });
setListAdapter(adapter);
}
}
In the above code, the line setContentView(R.layout.main) is no longer needed, because we are extends activiy as ListActivity.
Step 3 : Here is simple list_item.xml file.
list_item.xml :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical">
<!-- Name Label -->
<TextView
android:id="@+id/name"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColor="#dc6800"
android:textSize="16sp"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:paddingTop="6dip"
android:paddingBottom="2dip" />
<!-- Description label -->
<TextView
android:id="@+id/desciption"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColor="#acacac"
android:paddingBottom="2dip">
</TextView>
<!-- Linear layout for cost and price Cost: Rs.100 -->
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<!-- Cost Label -->
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColor="#5d5d5d"
android:gravity="left"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:text="Cost: " >
</TextView>
<!-- Price Label -->
<TextView
android:id="@+id/cost"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColor="#acacac"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:gravity="left">
</TextView>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
