I'm trying to retrieve data from https://ip-api.com. I have requested multiple variables and would like to append each line of different data. I have a textbox and have requested multiple variables in the same link request.
Let me provide an example of what I have right now.
WebClient wc = new WebClient();
string results = wc.DownloadString("http://ip-api.com/line/?fields=status,message,continent,continentCode,country,countryCode,region,regionName,city,district,zip,lat,lon,timezone,offset,currency,isp,org,as,asname,reverse,mobile,proxy,hosting,query");
textBox1.Text = results;
The output comes as this
successNorth AmericaNAUnited StatesUScensoredForPrivacy
I would prefer it look like this
success
North America
NA
United States
US
CensoredForPrivacy
How can I do this with the way I have provided or is there another way?
CodePudding user response:
The WebClient
method DownloadString
will append LF newline characters (\n) but a TextBox
requires CRLF newline characters (\r\n).
This can be solved by splitting at \n
then using AppendText(Environment.NewLine)
string results = wc.DownloadString("http://ip-api.com/line/?fields=status,message,continent,continentCode,country,countryCode,region,regionName,city,district,zip,lat,lon,timezone,offset,currency,isp,org,as,asname,reverse,mobile,proxy,hosting,query");
string[] headers = results.split("\n");
foreach(string s in headers) {
textBox1.AppendText(s);
textBox1.AppendText(Environment.NewLine);
}
