I'm working on an iOS app (pretty new to iOS) and I have my registration flow working where i post data to my server... The server returns JSON, but my question is, how do I parse that into variables?
The data that it returns is:
{"token":"67f41f60-9a9a-11e3-8310-11b6baf18c40","userId":13,"stationId":1}
The code I'm using to make the post request is:
[manager POST:#"http://localhost:3000/service/register_user/" parameters:parameters success:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject) {
NSLog(#"JSON: %#", responseObject);
} failure:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error) {
NSLog(#"Error!!!!!: %#", error);
}];
Also, when I make the post request, this is what I get in the log in xcode
2014-02-20 20:50:39.799 FlashoverResponse[4668:70b] Error!!!!!: Error Domain=AFNetworkingErrorDomain Code=-1016 "Request failed: unacceptable content-type: text/html" UserInfo=0x8a5e4f0 {NSErrorFailingURLKey=http://localhost:3000/service/register_user/, AFNetworkingOperationFailingURLResponseErrorKey=<NSHTTPURLResponse: 0x8a5e200> { URL: http://localhost:3000/service/register_user/ } { status code: 200, headers {

Is your server configured to respond in text/json application/json?
and/or have you set this?
manager.responseSerializer.acceptableContentTypes
it takes a NSSet of content types this parser will attempt to parse, if you cannot change the server to respond in json you can add text/html into that set, so the parser will parse it anyway.

I am using AFNetworking for making URL call.I check this url's in Android.This URL content-type is Application/JSON but in IOS i am getting header content-type text/html.From this URL I am getting sucessful response from URL in JSON format.Please help for solve this issue.
This is my ViewController.m file
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
NSURLSessionConfiguration *configuration = [NSURLSessionConfiguration defaultSessionConfiguration];
AFURLSessionManager *manager = [[AFURLSessionManager alloc] initWithSessionConfiguration:configuration];
NSURL *URL = [NSURL URLWithString:#"http://wptrafficanalyzer.in/p/demo1/first.php/countries/"];
NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:URL];
NSURLSessionDataTask *dataTask = [manager dataTaskWithRequest:request completionHandler:^(NSURLResponse *response, id responseObject, NSError *error) {
if (error) {
NSLog(#"Error: %#", error);
} else {
NSLog(#"%# %#",response);
}
}];
[dataTask resume];
}
Add this code:
manager.responseSerializer = [AFHTTPResponseSerializer serializer];
After this :
AFURLSessionManager *manager = [[AFURLSessionManager alloc] initWithSessionConfiguration:configuration];
It is well explained here : Upload an sqlite file
Your server page is returning text/html, but AFURLSessionManager is expecting JSON.
Edit:
As the above solution didn't work out , i found this link containing all possible solution for this error : Request failed: unacceptable content-type: text/html
I am using AFNetworking to GET a plain/text:
let manager = AFHTTPRequestOperationManager()
manager.GET(url, parameters: nil, success: { (op: AFHTTPRequestOperation!, res: AnyObject!) -> Void in
},failure: { (op: AFHTTPRequestOperation!, er:NSError!) -> Void in
println(op,er)
})
The accept content types:
manager.responseSerializer.acceptableContentTypes
[text/javascript, application/json, text/json]
So I got error in failure block:
NSLocalizedDescription=Request failed: unacceptable content-type: text/plain}
Then i added text/plain in this way:
var set = manager.responseSerializer.acceptableContentTypes
set.insert("text/plain")
manager.responseSerializer.acceptableContentTypes = set
right now the types are:
manager.responseSerializer.acceptableContentTypes
[application/json, text/javascript, text/plain, text/json]
But i got the new error:
{ URL: http://192.168.1.9:8081/sec.jsp } { status code: 200, headers {
"Content-Length" = 44;
"Content-Type" = "text/plain; charset=utf-8";

Server = "Jetty(6.1.10)";
"Set-Cookie" = "JSESSIONID=tapmhct7hanv;Path=/";
} }>, Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=3840 "The operation couldn’t be completed. (Cocoa error 3840.)" (JSON text did not start with array or object and option to allow fragments not set.) UserInfo=0x7fda31fb4a90 {NSDebugDescription=JSON text did not start with array or object and option to allow fragments not set.})
I think the question is because JSON can't read the response. But i have set it to text/plain, does it still try to parse the plain text as JSON?
I searched and try a way:
manager.responseSerializer = AFJSONResponseSerializer(readingOptions: NSJSONReadingOptions.AllowFragments)
But the error is:
Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=3840 "The operation couldn’t be completed. (Cocoa error 3840.)" (Garbage at end.) UserInfo=0x7ff4b1790660 {NSDebugDescription=Garbage at end.})
Man, this is what I added in when I config my AFNetworking class and it works fine.
The reason you got that 3840 error, is because your API server returns an integer or even empty stuff, which ios json parser failed.
Can u make sure in swift, the phrase your are using is correct way?
_delegateClient.responseSerializer = [AFJSONResponseSerializer serializerWithReadingOptions:NSJSONReadingAllowFragments];
AFHTTPSessionManager *manager = [AFHTTPSessionManager manager];
manager.responseSerializer = [AFJSONResponseSerializer
serializerWithReadingOptions:NSJSONReadingAllowFragments];
[manager GET:url parameters:parameters progress:nil
success:^(NSURLSessionDataTask * _Nonnull task, id _Nullable responseObject) {
NSLog(#"request: %#\n", responseObject);
completionBlock(responseObject,nil);
}
failure:^(NSURLSessionDataTask * _Nullable task, NSError * _Nonnull error) {
NSLog(#"Error: %#\n", error);
completionBlock(nil,error);
}];
The way to register my clients with my API server using command-line is
curl -d'{"email": "e", "memberExternalId": "m"}' -H"Content-Type: application/json" https://api-myapp.com/register
{"memberId":"78f7f8a4-a8c9-454a-93a8-6633a1076781","clientId":"111322610106743984083443169763434312591","clientSecret":"255682200164339900511209955730378006963"}
I am trying to do similar thing with Objective-C using AFNetworking. My current code looks like
- (void)connectWithServer {
NSLog(#"connecting with server");
AFHTTPRequestOperationManager *manager = [AFHTTPRequestOperationManager manager];
[manager.requestSerializer setValue:#"application/json" forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Type"];
manager.responseSerializer.acceptableContentTypes = [NSSet setWithObject:#"application/json"];
[manager POST:#"http://api-myapp.com/register"
parameters:#{#"email": #"e", #"memberExternalId": #"m"}
success:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject) {
NSLog(#"JSON: %#", responseObject);
} failure:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error) {
NSLog(#"Error: %#", error);
}];
}
What I see in my console is

What am I doing wrong? why the Content-Type is still text/html?
It's exactly what the error says: your server is sending back a webpage (HTML) for a 400 status code, when you were expecting JSON.
A 400 status code is used a bad request, which is probably generated because you're sending URL-form-encoded text as application/json. What you really want is to use AFJSONRequestSerializer for your request serializer.
manager.requestSerializer = [AFJSONRequestSerializer serializer];
I'm trying to send a HTTP DELETE request to a RESTful Django web service from my iOS app.
I use AFNetworking 2.0 (2.4).
After analysing the AFHTTPREquestOperation in the success block of my API call, i found that the body of the request is nil. The parameters URL encoded and sent in the URL.
<AFHTTPRequestOperation: 0x10c587940,
state: isFinished,
cancelled: NO
request: <NSMutableURLRequest: 0x10c521ab0> {
URL: https://anURL.com/connections?data%5Bconnections%5D%5B%5D%5Bid%5D=106 },
response: <NSHTTPURLResponse: 0x10c5c7590> {
URL: anURL.com/
connections?data%5Bconnections%5D%5B%5D%5Bid%5D=106
}
{ status code: 200, headers {
Connection = "Keep-Alive";
"Content-Type" = "application/json";
Date = "Tue, 05 Aug 2014 14:07:53 GMT";
"Keep-Alive" = "timeout=5, max=100";
Server = "Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu)";
"Transfer-Encoding" = Identity;
} }>
Now I wonder if it is possible to send the parameters in the body of the request, as done with HTTP POST instead of sending them in the URL. Is that possible?
How to do it using AFNetworking?
How i send atm:
AFHTTPRequestOperationManager *manager = [AFHTTPRequestOperationManager manager];
manager.requestSerializer = [AFJSONRequestSerializer serializer];
[manager DELETE:host_url parameters:params success:success failure:failure];
The body i want to send(its whats in the "params" parameter above):
{
"data": {
"connections": [
{
"id": 92
},
{
"id": 91
}
]
}
}
Had same problem. As question is still open, will post answer here. All you need to do, is change HTTP methods, that encode parameters as a query string (by default GET, HEAD, and DELETE). Request serializer has HTTPMethodsEncodingParametersInURI property for that. Just set it to GET, HEAD and you are done:
serializer.HTTPMethodsEncodingParametersInURI = [NSSet setWithObjects:#"GET", #"HEAD", nil];
Answer provided by #f3n1kc is corrected, but just in case you looking for Swift Version:
let manager = AFHTTPSessionManager()
manager.requestSerializer = AFHTTPRequestSerializer()
manager.requestSerializer.HTTPMethodsEncodingParametersInURI = ["GET", "HEAD"]
I'm using RESTKit v0.20.3. Since I'm not expecting a responseObject, I decided to use AFHTTPClient to POST. I have the following Code:
AFHTTPClient *httpClient = [[AFHTTPClient alloc] initWithBaseURL:url];
httpClient.parameterEncoding = AFJSONParameterEncoding;
[httpClient registerHTTPOperationClass:[AFJSONRequestOperation class]];
[httpClient setDefaultHeader:#"Accept" value:#"application/json"];
[httpClient postPath:#"/update" parameters:params success:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject) {
NSLog(#"AFJSONRequestOperation Alt response MIMEType %#",[responseObject MIMEType]);
[self.navigationController dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
} failure:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error) {
NSLog(#"***ERROR*****: %#", [error localizedDescription]);
}];

I get the error is in receiving text/html, but how can I tell AFHTTPClient to expect text/html?

[AFJSONRequestOperation addAcceptableContentTypes:[NSSet setWithObject:#"text/html"]];
that returns:

If I use AFHTTPRequestOperation, how do I pass parameters to it? I'm using RESTKit, so I can't use AFNetworking 2.0. Code Example would be greatly appreciated!
If you check the content of the HTML it actually says:
<h1>Not Found</h1><h2>404</h2>
So, the problem is not that the page you request doesn't exist rather than the returned content type being wrong.
Verify the URL and path that you are using.
