I'm building an Android recipe app, using the Spoonacular API. (I'm quite new to jetpack compose)
The issue is, the value stored inside of _randomRecipeResult in the viewModel is supposed to be the Json object I believe, or well, it's definitely not supposed to be null, and I'm not sure where I'm going wrong.
I am calling their getRandomRecipes endpoint. The logcat is showing this as the regular okhttp response and below I'm trying to log the response value: LogCat-New picture
I will provide the code for my retrofit builder, endpoints, model, viewmodel and repository. I am then calling the getRandomResults from one of my screens
RetroFit:
class Api {
companion object {
const val RECIPE_BASE_URL = "https://api.spoonacular.com/recipes/"
const val apiKey = "secret"
//const val CHAT_BASE_URL = "" not needed actually
val recipeClient by lazy { createApi(RECIPE_BASE_URL, apiKey) }
private fun createApi(baseUrl: String, apiKey: String): ApiService {
val client = OkHttpClient.Builder().apply {
addInterceptor(HttpLoggingInterceptor().setLevel(HttpLoggingInterceptor.Level.BODY))
readTimeout(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
writeTimeout(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
}.build()
return Retrofit.Builder()
.baseUrl(baseUrl)
.client(client)
.addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
.build()
.create(ApiService::class.java)
}
}
}
EndPoints:
interface ApiService {
// get random recipes for discoverScreen
@GET("random?")
suspend fun getRandomRecipe(
@Query("apiKey") apiKey: String,
@Query("number") number: Int // how many random recipes to return
): RandomResults
// Searching for recipes is done in 2 steps
// First:
@GET("complexSearch")
suspend fun searchRecipe(
@Query("apiKey") apiKey: String,
@Query("query") query: String,
@Query("number") number: Int,
// there are more things parameters but I'm not fully interested in them
): Recipe
// Second:
@GET("{id}/information?") //{id} needs to be passed, received from "searchRecipe"
suspend fun getRecipeInfo(
@Query("apiKey") apiKey: String,
@Query("id") id: Int
): Recipe
}
Model:

@SerializedName("instructions") val instructions: List<String>,
@SerializedName("analyzedInstructions") val analyzedInstructions: List<AnalyzedInstructions>,
@SerializedName("summary") val summary: String //not sure if it will be used
)
data class RandomResults(
@SerializedName("recipes") val results: List<Recipe>

data class AnalyzedInstructions(
val name: String = "",
