ServiceStack JsonServiceClient Silently Failing When Deserializing - c#

I am working on an integration with the Expedia API. I am relatively new to ServiceStack but have managed pretty well so far, however, I've hit an issue with the deserialization of a JSON response from the API which seems to be failing despite having JsConfig.ThrowOnDeserializationError enabled.
JsConfig.Reset();
JsConfig.ThrowOnDeserializationError = true;
var availability = _client.Get<ExpediaHotelRoomAvailability>("avail?" + querystring);
In order to see the API response I am working with please use the following request:
GET http://dev.api.ean.com/ean-services/rs/hotel/v3/avail?minorRev=26&cid=55505&apiKey=cbrzfta369qwyrm9t5b8y8kf&customerUserAgent=Mozilla%2f5.0+(Windows+NT+6.3%3b+WOW64)+AppleWebKit%2f537.36+(KHTML%2c+like+Gecko)+Chrome%2f35.0.1916.114+Safari%2f537.36&customerIpAddress=%3a%3a1&hotelId=135857&arrivalDate=06%2f07%2f2014&departureDate=06%2f20%2f2014&includeDetails=true&includeRoomImages=true&room1=2 HTTP/1.1

A large part of the response is de-serialized fine except for all of the rate information which I am really interested in. No exceptions are thrown during the deserialization so I have little to go on in terms of tracking down the exact problem. To be more specific let's take the ChargeableRateInfo - all values contained within are either null or zero.
Here is my class I am trying to deserialize the response to:

Could this possibly have something to do with the # symbols in the JSON and if so how do I get around this?

You can handle the # symbols named fields by providing their name using a [DataMember(Name=...)] attribute.
Unfortunately this mean you have to provide a [DataContract] attribute on your DTO, which means all the properties then become opt-in. So all properties will need to have [DataMember] to be included, which makes the DTO less readable.
So your NightlyRate DTO becomes:
[DataContract]
public class NightlyRate
{
[DataMember(Name="#baseRate")]
public string baseRate { get; set; }
[DataMember(Name="#promo")]
public string promo { get; set; }
[DataMember(Name="#rate")]
public string rate { get; set; }
}
And NightlyRatesPerRoom would be:
[DataContract]
public class NightlyRatesPerRoom
{
[DataMember]
public List<NightlyRate> NightlyRate { get; set; }
[DataMember(Name="#size")]
public int size { get; set; }
}
Obviously you will have to mark up the other DTOs as appropriate. I hope that helps.

json dynamic node parse in C#

I am receiving json with dynamic one node based on sector like "DEL-BOM", "NYC-BOM".
trying to parse but body getting null.
I just add Dictionary and key as node and class as value but still not getting values in DeserializeObject.

I have tried based on Parse dynamic JSON
Key is converting but body or value is null.
try this, it was tested and working properly
var jsonDeserialized = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Data>(json);

Use Newtonsoft.Json for deserialization
Your Correct Model is.
public class DATECHANGE
{
public DEFAULT DEFAULT { get; set; }
}
public class CANCELLATION
{
public DEFAULT DEFAULT { get; set; }
}
public class SEATCHARGEABLE
{
public DEFAULT DEFAULT { get; set; }
}
public class Fr
{
public NOSHOW NO_SHOW { get; set; }
public DATECHANGE DATECHANGE { get; set; }
public CANCELLATION CANCELLATION { get; set; }
public SEATCHARGEABLE SEAT_CHARGEABLE { get; set; }
}
public class FareRule
{
[JsonProperty(PropertyName = "DEL-BOM")]
public DynamicBody DELBOM { get; set; }
[JsonProperty(PropertyName = "NYC-BOM")]
public DynamicBody NYCBOM { get; set; }
}
public class Status
{
public bool Success { get; set; }
public int HttpStatus { get; set; }
}
public class BaseResponseModel
{
public FareRule FareRule { get; set; }
public Status Status { get; set; }
}
public class DynamicBody
{
public Fr Fr { get; set; }
}
Then Deserialize like this code
var responseModel = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<BaseResponseModel>(jsonStr);

After analyzing your json and class objects for json.
You json contains property with name "trial_period_days": null, has been null and you declare its respective property of type integer public int trial_period_days { get; set; } in Plan class object.
So int is a value type and cannot be cast to null.
To get rid from this exception you need to modify your property to either of below.
public object trial_period_days { get; set; }
OR
public int? trial_period_days { get; set; }
And same for your remaining properties inside Object class for trial_start and trial_end.
Note: Don't use Object as your custom class name because it already predefined class in .net framework.
Because there are some properties are null in your JSON data but you use value type to carry it.
You can try to use string type to represent your null value properties for those models to carry your JSON data.

Note
There are two way can create model easily.
You can use Web Essentials in Visual Studio, use Edit > Paste special > paste JSON as a class, you can easier to know the relation between Json and model.
If you can't use Web Essentials you can instead of use http://json2csharp.com/ online JSON to Model class.
You can try to use those models to carry your JSON Format.

Deserialize JSON with multi dimensional array on C# Webapi

I have a JSON with multidimensional array. I have no idea how to deserialize it on my c# model. I did a very simple way of deserialization which is not working. I need to know how to deserialize my JSON on more structural way.
This is my json data
{
"Access_point_result": [
{
"msg": {
"ap_eth_mac": {
"addr": "D8C7C8C0C7BE"
},
"ap_name": "1344-1-AL5",
"ap_group": "1344-hq",
"ap_model": "135",
"depl_mode": "DEPLOYMENT_MODE_CAMPUS",
"ap_ip_address": {
"af": "ADDR_FAMILY_INET",
"addr": "10.6.66.67",
"reboots": 1,
"rebootstraps": 2,
"managed_by": {
"af": "ADDR_FAMILY_INET",
"addr": "0.0.0.0"
},
"managed_by_key": "2e302bee0164cc154d1d266d8567ada44d49e77af82f4b5ccb",
"radios": {
"radio_bssid.addr": "D8.C7.C8.46.D8.10"
},
"is_master": true,
"ap_location": {
"ap_eth_mac": "D8C7C8C0C7BE",
"campus_id": "6F9DEC79839D458B9F148D16A46A353E",
"building_id": "83393A922FB249C1929B95393A2AAFDA",
"floor_id": "260BE76B0DD13E7AAF18EB3B47DD7F7B",
"longitude": -122.008,
"latitude": 37.4129,
"ap_x": 22.15,
"ap_y": 99.18
}
},
"ts": 1382046667
}
}
]
}
Below is my C# model
public class WifiDataAruba : BaseModel
{
public string APMACAddr { get; set; }
public string APName { get; set; }
public string APGroup { get; set; }
public string APModel { get; set; }
public string APDeplMode { get; set; }
public string APIPAddr { get; set; }
public int APReboots { get; set; }
public int APRebootStraps { get; set; }
public string APManagedBy { get; set; }
public string APManagedByKey { get; set; }
public string APRadios { get; set; }
public bool APMaster { get; set; }
public string APLocation { get; set; }
public string APMACAddr2 { get; set; }
public string APCampusID { get; set; }
public string APLocationID { get; set; }
public string APBuildingID { get; set; }
public string APFloorID { get; set; }
public double APLongtitude { get; set; }
public double APLatitude { get; set; }
public double X { get; set; }
public double Y { get; set; }
public DateTime ImportTimestamp { get; set; }
}
How can i make the break the deserialization much structural way?
you have to change your model to the following
public class ApEthMac
{
public string addr { get; set; }
}
public class ManagedBy
{
public string af { get; set; }
public string addr { get; set; }
}
public class Radios
{
public string __invalid_name__radio_bssid.addr { get; set; }
}
public class ApLocation
{
public string ap_eth_mac { get; set; }
public string campus_id { get; set; }
public string building_id { get; set; }
public string floor_id { get; set; }
public double longitude { get; set; }
public double latitude { get; set; }
public double ap_x { get; set; }
public double ap_y { get; set; }
}
public class ApIpAddress
{
public string af { get; set; }
public string addr { get; set; }
public int reboots { get; set; }
public int rebootstraps { get; set; }
public ManagedBy managed_by { get; set; }
public string managed_by_key { get; set; }
public Radios radios { get; set; }
public bool is_master { get; set; }
public ApLocation ap_location { get; set; }
}
public class Msg
{
public ApEthMac ap_eth_mac { get; set; }
public string ap_name { get; set; }
public string ap_group { get; set; }
public string ap_model { get; set; }
public string depl_mode { get; set; }
public ApIpAddress ap_ip_address { get; set; }
public int ts { get; set; }
}
public class AccessPointResult
{
public Msg msg { get; set; }
}
public class RootObject
{
public List<AccessPointResult> Access_point_result { get; set; }
}
and your webapi method should look like the following
public void Post(RootObject rootObject)
Note
that you have to add camelcaseconvention in your webapi config if you want to change your c# model to PascalCase
Here how your method should look like in your WebaApiConfig
public static void Register(HttpConfiguration config)
{
// Web API configuration and services
EnableCrossSiteRequests(config);
// Web API routes
config.MapHttpAttributeRoutes();
GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.Formatters.JsonFormatter
.SerializerSettings.ContractResolver =
new CamelCasePropertyNamesContractResolver();
config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
name: "DefaultApi",
routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}",
defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional }
);
}
Model
public class ApEthMac
{
public string addr { get; set; }
}
public class ManagedBy
{
public string af { get; set; }
public string addr { get; set; }
}
public class Radios
{
public string __invalid_name__radio_bssid.addr { get; set; }
}
public class ApLocation
{
public string ap_eth_mac { get; set; }
public string campus_id { get; set; }
public string building_id { get; set; }
public string floor_id { get; set; }
public double longitude { get; set; }
public double latitude { get; set; }
public double ap_x { get; set; }
public double ap_y { get; set; }
}
public class ApIpAddress
{
public string af { get; set; }
public string addr { get; set; }
public int reboots { get; set; }
public int rebootstraps { get; set; }
public ManagedBy managed_by { get; set; }
public string managed_by_key { get; set; }
public Radios radios { get; set; }
public bool is_master { get; set; }
public ApLocation ap_location { get; set; }
}
public class Msg
{
public ApEthMac ap_eth_mac { get; set; }
public string ap_name { get; set; }
public string ap_group { get; set; }
public string ap_model { get; set; }
public string depl_mode { get; set; }
public ApIpAddress ap_ip_address { get; set; }
public int ts { get; set; }
}
public class AccessPointResult
{
public Msg msg { get; set; }
}
public class RootObject
{
public List<AccessPointResult> Access_point_result { get; set; }
}
then DeserializeObject
RootObject rootObject= new RootObject();
rootObject= JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RootObject>(jsonAgents);

Trouble parsing forecast.io weather data with Json.Net

I am relatively new to JSON and using an API forecast.io. It returns the JSON below, which I need to parse.
"daily":{
"summary":"Drizzle on Monday and Tuesday, with temperatures bottoming out at 91°F on Monday.","icon":"rain",
"data":[{
"time":1463770800,"summary":"Clear throughout the day.","icon":"clearday","sunriseTime":1463788956,"sunsetTime":1463839653,"moonPhase":0.48,"precipIntensity":0,"precipIntensityMax":0,"precipProbability":0,"temperatureMin":63.06,"temperatureMinTime":1463785200,"temperatureMax":95.23,"temperatureMaxTime":1463824800,"apparentTemperatureMin":63.06,"apparentTemperatureMinTime":1463785200,"apparentTemperatureMax":90.3,"apparentTemperatureMaxTime":1463824800,"dewPoint":37.34,"humidity":0.25,"windSpeed":3.44,"windBearing":22,"cloudCover":0,"pressure":1002.14,"ozone":283.7}
I extracted the "daily" portion successfully, but I could not get the "data" inside the "daily". I need to have the details, i.e. summary, time, icon, etc. I'd really appreciate some help.
Here is my C# code:
var test = new System.Net.WebClient().DownloadString("https://api.forecast.io/forecast/f2857958690caafc67d0dfba402c1f57/" + Latitude + "," + Longitude);
var json = JObject.Parse(test);
var daily = json.ToObject<DailyWeatherDTO>();
public class DailyWeatherDTO
{
public DailyWeatherData daily { get; set; }
}
public class DailyWeatherData
{
public daily data { get; set; }
}
public class daily
{
public string time { get; set; }
public String summary { get; set; }
public String icon { get; set; }
public String precipIntensity { get; set; }
public String precipProbability { get; set; }
public string sunriseTime { get; set; }
public string sunsetTime { get; set; }
public string moonPhase { get; set; }
public string precipIntensityMax { get; set; }
public string temperatureMin { get; set; }
public string temperatureMinTime { get; set; }
public string temperatureMax { get; set; }
public string temperatureMaxTime { get; set; }
public string apparentTemperatureMin { get; set; }
public string apparentTemperatureMinTime { get; set; }
public string apparentTemperatureMax { get; set; }
public string apparentTemperatureMaxTime { get; set; }
public string dewPoint { get; set; }
public string humidity { get; set; }
public string windSpeed { get; set; }
public string windBearing { get; set; }
public string cloudCover { get; set; }
public string pressure { get; set; }
public string ozone { get; set; }
}
First of all, the JSON you posted is not valid as shown. Specifically, you are missing a closing square bracket and curly brace at the end; plus, the whole thing needs to be enclosed in another pair of curly braces to be valid. Here is the corrected version, reformatted for readability:
{
"daily": {
"summary": "Drizzle on Monday and Tuesday, with temperatures bottoming out at 91°F on Monday.",
"icon": "rain",
"data": [
{
"time": 1463770800,
"summary": "Clear throughout the day.",
"icon": "clearday",
"sunriseTime": 1463788956,
"sunsetTime": 1463839653,
"moonPhase": 0.48,
"precipIntensity": 0,
"precipIntensityMax": 0,
"precipProbability": 0,
"temperatureMin": 63.06,
"temperatureMinTime": 1463785200,
"temperatureMax": 95.23,
"temperatureMaxTime": 1463824800,
"apparentTemperatureMin": 63.06,
"apparentTemperatureMinTime": 1463785200,
"apparentTemperatureMax": 90.3,
"apparentTemperatureMaxTime": 1463824800,
"dewPoint": 37.34,
"humidity": 0.25,
"windSpeed": 3.44,
"windBearing": 22,
"cloudCover": 0,
"pressure": 1002.14,
"ozone": 283.7
}
]
}
}
To be able to get all the data, your class structure needs to match the structure of the JSON. Assuming the above represents the complete JSON, here is what your classes should look like. In particular, notice the data property of the DailyWeatherData class is defined as a list of items (not a single object), which corresponds to the square brackets for the data property in the JSON.
public class DailyWeatherDTO // root-level container object
{
public DailyWeatherData daily { get; set; }
}
public class DailyWeatherData
{
public string summary { get; set; }
public string icon { get; set; }
public List<WeatherItem> data { get; set; }
}
public class WeatherItem
{
public int time { get; set; }
public string summary { get; set; }
public string icon { get; set; }
public int sunriseTime { get; set; }
public int sunsetTime { get; set; }
public double moonPhase { get; set; }
public int precipIntensity { get; set; }
public int precipIntensityMax { get; set; }
public int precipProbability { get; set; }
public double temperatureMin { get; set; }
public int temperatureMinTime { get; set; }
public double temperatureMax { get; set; }
public int temperatureMaxTime { get; set; }
public double apparentTemperatureMin { get; set; }
public int apparentTemperatureMinTime { get; set; }
public double apparentTemperatureMax { get; set; }
public int apparentTemperatureMaxTime { get; set; }
public double dewPoint { get; set; }
public double humidity { get; set; }
public double windSpeed { get; set; }
public int windBearing { get; set; }
public int cloudCover { get; set; }
public double pressure { get; set; }
public double ozone { get; set; }
}
With this class structure, you can deserialize the JSON like this:
DailyWeatherDTO dto = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<DailyWeatherDTO>(json);
Here is a demo: https://dotnetfiddle.net/YTBrac

Deserialize JSON to C# Object - No Data being deserialized

Found an odd issue when trying to deserialize a JSON string into a C# Object. It "seems" to perform the operation successfully (as in it does not throw any exception etc), however the outputted POCO contains does not contain any data from the JSON string, it only contains type default data (nulls,"", 0 etc). I have tried this process with other JSON and it works fine.

Any ideas - Im sure I have missed something glaringly obvious but I cannot see it. Using .NET 4.5
Help appreciated.

Look like you JSON string is not in correct format that you are trying to deserialize. For example i have not find show property in the C# class but it present in JSON.
So this issue I couldn't figure out in the night or early in the morning - it took me till this afternoon until I realised that I was had the wrong JSON!!, so no wonder it wasn't working! I got mixed up with a few different apis that provided JSON. Thanks to those who had pointed out that the class looks wrong, made me double check my code and realise the simplicity of this issue. Kinda needed some rubber ducking to spot the problem. Cheers
