Cosume PHP(POST METHOD) webservice in android.

Here i am passing json string parameter to php webservice. To consume php post method we will use HttpPost.

To create JSON String in android:

JSONObject json = new JSONObject();

json.put("name", "");
json.put("email", "");
json.put("password", "");

Log.i("json Object", json.toString());

Pass the parameter to post method:

        List<NameValuePair> params = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();

        params.add(new BasicNameValuePair("userinfo", json.toString()));

Get the response InputStream like this:

HttpResponse response;
InputStream is = null;

   response = client.execute(post);
HttpEntity httpEntity = response.getEntity();
is = httpEntity.getContent();

Full Code:

HttpResponse response;
JSONObject json = new JSONObject();
String json1 = "";
JSONObject jObj = null;
InputStream is = null;

DefaultHttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();

try {
HttpPost post = new HttpPost(
"Your URL");
json.put("name", "");
json.put("email", "");
json.put("password", "");

Log.i("jason Object", json.toString());
post.setHeader("userinfo", json.toString());

List<NameValuePair> params = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
params.add(new BasicNameValuePair("userinfo", json.toString()));

post.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(params));
response = client.execute(post);
HttpEntity httpEntity = response.getEntity();
is = httpEntity.getContent();

try {
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(is, "iso-8859-1"), 8);
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
String line = null;
while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
sb.append(line + "n");
}
is.close();
json1 = sb.toString();
Log.i("jason Object", sb.toString());

Log.e("JSON", json1);
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("Buffer Error", "Error converting result " + e.toString());
}
// try parse the string to a JSON object
try {
jObj = new JSONObject(json1);
} catch (JSONException e) {
Log.e("JSON Parser", "Error parsing data " + e.toString());
}

// return JSON String

Log.d("final Response", jObj.toString());
Log.d("status", jObj.getString("status")); //Declare your status or message or json string variable

} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
