FREE NEWS API VIA GITHUB, How to implement this code in retrofit? - api

Question

I came across an amazing FREE News Api on GitHub but I don't know how to implement it in retrofit
SauravKanchan/NEWSAPI
This API is the cracked version of NEWSAPI with the same functionality, I just want to know how to implement the code in retrofit
API Documentation
BASE_URL = "https://saurav.tech/NewsAPI/"
top_headlines_api = "<BASE_URL>/top-headlines/category//<country_code>.json"
everything_api = "<BASE_URL>/everything/<source_id>.json"
in the above documentation I am confused on how to pass <county_code>.json in the retrofit client, help, please!

Answer 1

Ok, so I figured out how to implement above in retrofit 2
use the below code in your retrofit request INTERFACE in my case its GetNewsByCountry.java
public interface GetNewsByCountry {
#GET("top-headlines/category/general/{country}.json")
Call<NEWSPOJO> getAllNews(#Path("country") String country);
}
now In your retrofit client instance write the following code
public class RetrofitClientInstance {
public static final String BASE_URL = "https://saurav.tech/NewsAPI/";
private static Retrofit retrofit = null;
public static Retrofit getRetrofitInstance() {
if (retrofit==null) {
retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder()
.baseUrl(BASE_URL)
.addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
.build();
}
return retrofit;
}
}
Note I have created different classes,i.e. GetNewsByCountry, java and RetrofitClientInstance.java for the above code
and to finally make an HTTP call write the below code in your activity/fragment class
GetNewsByCountry service = RetrofitClientInstance.getRetrofitInstance()
.create(GetNewsByCountry.class);
Call<YOUR_POJO_CLASS> call = service.getAllNews("us");
call.enqueue(new Callback<YOUR_POJO_CLASS>() {
#Override
public void onResponse(Call<YOUR_POJO_CLASS> call, Response<YOUR_POJO_CLASS> response) {
/** TODO: implement the logic you want when you receive the
JSON data, most probably you want to show
the result in recycler view so I am pasting
my code here, u know just in case
Log.v("onResponse", "we are in th on response callback");
assert response.body() != null;
List<Article> list = response.body().getArticles();
adapter = new NewsAdapter(getActivity(), list);
recyclerView.setAdapter(adapter);
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
*/
}
#Override
public void onFailure(Call<NEWSPOJO> call, Throwable t) {
/** progressDialog.dismiss();
Log.e("“out”", t.toString());
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "Something went wrong...Please try later!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
*/
}
});
comment if u have any doubt left!
