Get nested JSON object with GSON using retrofit

Question

I\'m consuming an API from my android app, and all the JSON responses are like this:

{
    \'status\': \'OK\',
    \'reason\': \'Everything was fine\',
    \         


        

Answer 1

In my case, the "content" key would change for each response. Example:

// Root is hotel
{
  status : "ok",
  statusCode : 200,
  hotels : [{
    name : "Taj Palace",
    location : {
      lat : 12
      lng : 77
    }

  }, {
    name : "Plaza", 
    location : {
      lat : 12
      lng : 77
    }
  }]
}

//Root is city

{
  status : "ok",
  statusCode : 200,
  city : {
    name : "Vegas",
    location : {
      lat : 12
      lng : 77
    }
}

In such cases I used a similar solution as listed above but had to tweak it. You can see the gist here. It's a little too large to post it here on SOF.

The annotation @InnerKey("content") is used and the rest of the code is to facilitate it's usage with Gson.
