Retrofit callback get response body

I am testing Retrofit to compare it with Volley and I am struggling to get the response from my requests. For example, I do something like this:

RestAdapter restAdapter = new RestAdapter.Builder()
            .setEndpoint("http://localhost:8080")
            .build();

MyService service = restAdapter.create(MyService.class);
service.getToto("toto", new Callback<Toto>() {

        @Override
        public void success(Toto toto, Response response) {
            // Try to get response body
            BufferedReader reader = null;
            StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
            try {
                reader = new BufferedReader(
                    new InputStreamReader(response.getBody().in()));
                String line;
                try {
                    while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
                        sb.append(line);
                    }
                } catch (IOException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
            } catch (IOException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
            String result = sb.toString();
        }

        @Override
        public void failure(RetrofitError error) {}
    });

It works, the object toto is set, but for testing purposes, I also want to display the JSON response returned by the server.

So I am trying to read the InputStream from response.getBody() which is a TypedInputStream. Unfortunately, I always get an IOException : Stream is closed.

I tried to use the Utils class from Retrofit but I get the same IOException error.

Just do it like this:

ModelClass modelclass=response.response.body()
System.out.println("****************-----retro rsp----1-------"+modelclass.getMessage());

Before Retrofit 2.0 

   String bodyString = new String(((TypedByteArray) response.getBody()).getBytes());

Retrofit 2.0

 String  bodyString = new String(response.body().bytes());

With version 2.1.0, you can get the content as

public void onResponse(Call<T> call, Response<T> response) {
    String errorString = response.errorBody().string();
}

in your model of response press cmd+n and override "toString" method and only call as response.toString(); 

@Override
public String toString() {
    return "{" +
            "key_one='" + var_keyone + '\'' +
            ", key_two='" + var_keytwo + '\'' +
            '}';
}

Please, don't use streams and straemReaders for this. Use smart solutions like square does: 

private Response logAndReplaceResponse(String url, Response response, long elapsedTime)

http://www.programcreek.com/java-api-examples/index.php?source_dir=retrofit-jaxrs-master/retrofit/src/main/java/retrofit/RestAdapter.java

example:

private String getResponseBody(Response response) {
    String result = "";
    //Try to get response body
    if (response.getBody() instanceof TypedByteArray) {
        TypedByteArray b = (TypedByteArray) response.getBody();
        result = new String(b.getBytes());
    }
    return result;
}

Another solution would be to do something like the following: 

  private static String bodyAsString(RequestBody body) {
    try {
      Buffer buffer = new Buffer();
      body.writeTo(buffer);
      return buffer.readString(body.contentType().charset());
    } catch (IOException e) {
      throw new RuntimeException(e);
    }
  }

If you set .setLogLevel(RestAdapter.LogLevel.FULL) on the RestAdapter that you use to create the service you should get the raw JSON response output in the debug console.

RestAdapter restAdapter = new RestAdapter.Builder()
    .setServer("http://my_lovely_api.com")
    .setLogLevel(RestAdapter.LogLevel.FULL)
    .build();

mService = restAdapter.create(MyService.class);

If you want to do something different with this raw response you can still use the code you have in your success block to create a JSON string assuming that you keep the LogLevel.FULL in the setLogLevel method, if not then it won't parse the InputStream from response.getBody().in() as it's already been read and closed.

I recently encountered a similar problem. I wanted to look at some json in the response body but didn't want to deal with the TypedByteArray from Retrofit. I found the quickest way to get around it was to make a Pojo(Plain Old Java Object) with a single String field. More Generally you would make a Pojo with one field corresponding to whatever data you wanted to look at.

For example, say I was making a request in which the response from the server was a single string in the response's body called "access_token"

My Pojo would look like this:

public class AccessToken{
    String accessToken;

    public AccessToken() {}

    public String getAccessToken() {
        return accessToken;
    }
}

and then my callback would look like this

Callback<AccessToken> callback = new Callback<AccessToken>() {
   @Override
   public void success(AccessToken accessToken, Response response) {
       Log.d(TAG,"access token: "+ accessToken.getAccessToken());
   }

   @Override
   public void failure(RetrofitError error) {
       Log.E(TAG,"error: "+ error.toString());
   }
};

This will enable you to look at what you received in the response.

Inside callback's angle brackets write "Response" and then extract the stream from this response.

service.getToto("toto", new Callback<Response>() {
    @Override
    public void success(Response result, Response response) {

        //Try to get response body
        BufferedReader reader = null;
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
        try {

            reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(result.getBody().in()));

            String line;

            try {
                while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
                    sb.append(line);
                }
            } catch (IOException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }


        String result = sb.toString();
    }

    @Override
    public void failure(RetrofitError error) {

    }
});
