I am using retrofit 2 to query the TMDB api. In the call.enqueue method I am doing
List<Movie> movies = response.body.getMovies();
When I run, I get an error saying that the method getMovies produces a null pointer exception
API-INTERFACE
public interface ApiInterface {
@GET("/movie/now_playing")
Call<MainMovieNowPlayingResponse> getNowPlayingMovies(@Query("page")int
page, @Query("api_key") String API_KEY);
}
Here is my ApiClient Class
public class ApiClient {
private static Retrofit retrofit = null;
public static Retrofit getClient(){
if (retrofit == null){
retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder()
.baseUrl("https://api.themoviedb.org/3")
.addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
.build();
}
return retrofit;
}}
Here is the enqueue method im calling from the fragment
ApiInterface service = ApiClient.getClient().create(ApiInterface.class);
Call<MainMovieNowPlayingResponse> call = service.getNowPlayingMovies(1,API_KEY);
call.enqueue(new Callback<MainMovieNowPlayingResponse>() {
@Override
public void onResponse(Call<MainMovieNowPlayingResponse> call, Response<MainMovieNowPlayingResponse> response) {
if (response.code() == 200 && response.isSuccessful()){
movies = response.body().getResults();
}
}
@Override
public void onFailure(Call<MainMovieNowPlayingResponse> call,
Throwable t) {
}
});
I am calling this from the onCreateView method of a fragment which is a part of a tab view.
The error I'm getting is a NULL POINTER EXCEPTION in the response.body.getMovies() call.
Where is my mistake??
P.S : I intentionally didn't place the Models because they were too long and I didn't want this question to be too lengthy. I have triple checked the models and all of them are right. All are private variables with public getters and setters.
And before you downvote this because this is yet another question of NullPointer , I know what a null pointer exception is. I just cant find the error in this code.
Where is my mistake?
