Dart / Flutter JSON parsing and display

Question

Dart / Flutter JSON parsing and display

I am having trouble parsing and displaying the info. Am getting data from API

I get a response == 200 from API but am unable to display it.

The printout on screen is "Instance of medData"

Future<medData> fetchData(http.Client client) async {
  final response = await http.get(
    'xxxxxxxxxx',
    headers: {
      "host": "rapidapi.com",
      "key": "x87439756734",
    },
  );

  if (response.statusCode == 200) {
    // List json = json.decode(response.body);
    // return json.map((medData) => new medData.fromJson(medData)).toList();
    return medData.fromJson(json.decode(response.body));
  } else {
    throw Exception('Failed to load data from API');
  }
}

This Is the List View Builder

ListView _medDataListView(data) {
  return ListView.builder(
      itemCount: data.length,
      itemBuilder: (context, index) {
        return _tile(data[index].cases, data[index].number, Icons.work);
      });
}

Tile builder

ListTile _tile(String title, String subtitle, IconData icon) => ListTile(
      title: Text(title,
          style: TextStyle(
            fontWeight: FontWeight.w500,
            fontSize: 20,
          )),
      subtitle: Text(subtitle),
      leading: Icon(
        icon,
        color: Colors.blue[500],
      ),
    );

Class medData for parsing the JSON

class medData {
  String country;
  List<LatestStatByCountry> latestStatByCountry;

  medData({this.country, this.latestStatByCountry});

  medData.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> json) {
    country = json['country'];
    if (json['latest_stat_by_country'] != null) {
      latestStatByCountry = new List<LatestStatByCountry>();
      json['latest_stat_by_country'].forEach((v) {
        latestStatByCountry.add(new LatestStatByCountry.fromJson(v));
      });
    }
  }

  Map<String, dynamic> toJson() {
    final Map<String, dynamic> data = new Map<String, dynamic>();
    data['country'] = this.country;
    if (this.latestStatByCountry != null) {
      data['latest_stat_by_country'] =
          this.latestStatByCountry.map((v) => v.toJson()).toList();
    }
    return data;
  }
}

class LatestStatByCountry {
  String id;
  String countryName;
  String totalCases;
  String newCases;
  String activeCases;
  String totalDeaths;
  String newDeaths;
  String totalRecovered;
  String seriousCritical;
  Null region;
  String totalCasesPer1m;
  String recordDate;

  LatestStatByCountry(
      {this.id,
      this.countryName,
      this.totalCases,
      this.newCases,
      this.activeCases,
      this.totalDeaths,
      this.newDeaths,
      this.totalRecovered,
      this.seriousCritical,
      this.region,
      this.totalCasesPer1m,
      this.recordDate});

  LatestStatByCountry.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> json) {
    id = json['id'];
    countryName = json['country_name'];
    totalCases = json['total_cases'];
    newCases = json['new_cases'];
    activeCases = json['active_cases'];
    totalDeaths = json['total_deaths'];
    newDeaths = json['new_deaths'];
    totalRecovered = json['total_recovered'];
    seriousCritical = json['serious_critical'];
    region = json['region'];
    totalCasesPer1m = json['total_cases_per1m'];
    recordDate = json['record_date'];
  }

  Map<String, dynamic> toJson() {
    final Map<String, dynamic> data = new Map<String, dynamic>();
    data['id'] = this.id;
    data['country_name'] = this.countryName;
    data['total_cases'] = this.totalCases;
    data['new_cases'] = this.newCases;
    data['active_cases'] = this.activeCases;
    data['total_deaths'] = this.totalDeaths;
    data['new_deaths'] = this.newDeaths;
    data['total_recovered'] = this.totalRecovered;
    data['serious_critical'] = this.seriousCritical;
    data['region'] = this.region;
    data['total_cases_per1m'] = this.totalCasesPer1m;
    data['record_date'] = this.recordDate;
    return data;
  }
}

Building the widget

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: Center(
        child: FutureBuilder<medData>(
          future: fetchData(http.Client()),
          builder: (context, snapshot) {
            if (snapshot.hasData) {
              return Text("${snapshot.data}");
            } else if (snapshot.hasError) {
              return Text("${snapshot.error}");
            }
            return CircularProgressIndicator();
          },
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

I don't really know what i'm doing wrong when trying to display the data.

Can you show me an example of your json data that you fetched? — CoderUni

Thank you for the reply :) { "country": "South Africa", "latest_stat_by_country": [ { "id": "216413", "country_name": "South Africa", "total_cases": "709", "new_cases": "", "active_cases": "697", "total_deaths": "", "new_deaths": "", "total_recovered": "12", "serious_critical": "2", "region": null, "total_cases_per1m": "12", "record_date": "2020-03-26 05:50:02.171" } ] } — Daniel Schoeman

You can copy paste run full code below
Step 1 : parse json string with medDataFromJson(response.body);

factory MedData.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> json) => MedData(
        country: json["country"],
        latestStatByCountry: List<LatestStatByCountry>.from(
            json["latest_stat_by_country"]
                .map((x) => LatestStatByCountry.fromJson(x))),
      );

Step 2 : In FutureBuilder do return _medDataListView(snapshot.data.latestStatByCountry);

Step 3: ListView _medDataListView(List<LatestStatByCountry> data) data is List<LatestStatByCountry>

Thank you so much for the response. I am trying to display the records individually in a list. How do i get the json from the api to parse? final response = await http.get( 'coronavirus-monitor.p.rapidapi.com/coronavirus/…', headers: { "x-rapidapi-host": "coronavirus-monitor.p.rapidapi.com", "x-rapidapi-key": "23bdb74dbfmsh865510b645e32f6p1f7b7bjsn2e800c1ac844", }, );
Glad to help. please mark this as answer if it help you. thanks.
I have update full code to include your url. please check it.
Yo are an absolute champ! I have one final question. How do get set variables to each one of the subfield ie. id, totalcases so as to use them elsewhere? Also how do i display all the submenus in the list simultaneously?
I have update full code. just declare MedData medData outside of class. then you can access everywhere. and ListView will show List<LatestStatByCountry> , you do not need extra codeing.
