Load Image in ImageView from URL stored in JSONString in Android

Question

I have a JSON string, say a name and a Url . I need to extract name into the TextView and extract and display image in ImageView. Belo

Answer 1

You could extract the image name and url like this

 public static final String JSON_STRING="{\"WebImages\":{\"Imagename\":\"image_name\",\"imageurl\":http://www.example.com/image/example.png}}"; 
JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject(JSON_STRING);
JSONObject webImages = jsonObject.getJSONObject("WebImages");
String imageName = webImages.getString("Imagename");
String imageUrl = webImages.getString("imageurl");

Now, you have the imageName and the imageUrl. You can easily set the text doing something like myTextView.setText(imageName). For loading the image into ImageView, I suggest using the Picasso library. It is extremely easy to use. All you need is one line of code, which would look like

Picasso.with(context).load(imageUrl).into(imageView);
