I want to receive the data from this link: https://rapidapi.com/DIlyanBarbov/api/crypto-news-live/

API

This is my objects:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using Newtonsoft.Json;

namespace SmartCryptoWorld.Models
{
    public class News
    {
        public List<NewsBody> CryptoNews { get; set; }
    }

    public class NewsBody
    {
        [JsonProperty("title")]
        public string TitleNews { get; set; }

        [JsonProperty("url")]
        public string UrlNews { get; set; }
    }
}

This is my async Task to get them:

private async Task GetAPI()
    {
        var client = new HttpClient();
        var request = new HttpRequestMessage
        {
            Method = HttpMethod.Get,
            RequestUri = new Uri("https://crypto-news-live.p.rapidapi.com/news/coindesk"),
            Headers =
        {
            { "x-rapidapi-host", "crypto-news-live.p.rapidapi.com" },
            { "x-rapidapi-key", "51569aba99mshf9e839fcfce791bp16c0dbjsn9ced6dba7472" },
        },
        };
        using (var response = await client.SendAsync(request))
        {
            News news = new News();
            response.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();
            var body = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
            news = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<News>(body);
            var test = news;
        }
    }

When I stop debugger at this line:

news = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<News>(body);

He stuck and does not move forward.

The body looks like:

I don't know if my objects are as they should be.

Also, when deserializing, I'm not sure if that should be the case.

Can I get a working example ?

CodePudding user response:

With a model such as

namespace SmartCryptoWorld.Models
{
    public class News
    {
        public List<NewsBody> CryptoNews { get; set; }
    }

    public class NewsBody
    {
        [JsonProperty("title")]
        public string TitleNews { get; set; }

        [JsonProperty("url")]
        public string UrlNews { get; set; }
   }
}

You would expect the JSON output to be:

{
    cryptoNews: [
    {
        "TitleNews": "...",
        "UrlNews": "..."
    },
    ...
    ]
}

But the JSON you've posted in your question doesn't have a parent object called CryptoNews, and is simply the List<NewsBody>.

Deserialize the JSON as such instead:

var news = new News();
var newsBody = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<NewsBody>>(body);
news.CryptoNews = newsBody;
