I am using ExpressJS on server & Android as client
I want to know how to perform this action in server::
suppose i have a
listViewof list of colleges, I get the data for this asJSONusing the Express program shown below.Now Android has
OnClickfor identifying the position on thelistviewHow to get the JSON for the android client dynamically ( If i click on a row, I want to do the database query dynamically on the server so that JSON URL is dynamically generated )
I have not posted android code as I think modification is on server side but
android developerswho worked withExpressJSorNodeJSwill also have an idea for this
What code changes should i need to make on server ?
What concepts should i need to look to achieve this functionality?
My Express program on server ::
var express = require('express')
, async = require('async')
, http = require('http')
, mysql = require('mysql');
var app = express();
var connection = mysql.createConnection({
host: 'localhost',
user: 'xxx',
password: "xxx",
database: 'collages'
});
connection.connect();
// all environments
app.set('port', process.env.PORT || 1232);
//
//REQUEST FOR FIRST REQUEST
//
app.get('/',function(request,response){
var name_of_Collages, RestaurantTimings;
async.series( [
// Get the first table contents
function ( callback ) {
connection.query('SELECT * FROM collagenames', function(err, rows, fields)
{
console.log('Connection result error '+err);
name_of_Collages = rows;
callback();
});
},
// Get the second table contents
function ( callback ) {
connection.query('SELECT * FROM RestaurantTimings', function(err, rows, fields)
{
console.log('Connection result error '+err);
RestaurantTimings = rows;
callback();
});
}
// Send the response
], function ( error, results ) {
response.json({
'Collages' : name_of_Collages,
'RestaurantTimings' : RestaurantTimings
});
} );
} );
//
//REQUEST FOR Collage SCREEN
//
app.get('/College1',function(request,response){
var College1, RestaurantTimings;
async.series( [
// Get the first table contents
function ( callback ) {
connection.query('SELECT * FROM College1', function(err, rows, fields)
{
console.log('Connection result error '+err);
College1 = rows;
callback();
});
},
// Get the second table contents
function ( callback ) {
connection.query('SELECT * FROM RestaurantTimings', function(err, rows, fields)
{
console.log('Connection result error '+err);
RestaurantTimings = rows;
callback();
});
}
// Send the response
], function ( error, results ) {
response.json({
'College' : College1,
'RestaurantTimings' : RestaurantTimings
});
} );
} );
http.createServer(app).listen(app.get('port'), function(){
console.log('Express server listening on port ' + app.get('port'));
});
Hope i am clear
Thanks,
