Why I get the following error at offset 6 with the following code. It makes an HTTP Request, gets a Json back, should go through the Json and create the object IMDBInfo. The json is valid, obviously processing, and the data class is as easy as it could be..., but I don't get the point of the error:
Error:
Exception in thread "main" kotlinx.serialization.json.internal.JsonDecodingException: Unexpected JSON token at offset 6: Expected beginning of the string, but got {
JSON input: {"d":[{"i":{"height":741,"imageUrl":.....
at kotlinx.serialization.json.internal.JsonExceptionsKt.JsonDecodingException(JsonExceptions.kt:24)
...
Code:
class StreamingAvailability() {
var IMDBName : String = ""
fun findOriginalTitle(title: String) = runBlocking {
val client = HttpClient(Apache) {
install(JsonFeature) {
serializer = KotlinxSerializer(kotlinx.serialization.json.Json {
prettyPrint = true
isLenient = true
ignoreUnknownKeys = true
coerceInputValues = true
allowStructuredMapKeys = true
})
}
}
val result : IMDBInfo = client.get {
url {
protocol = URLProtocol.HTTPS
encodedPath = "auto-complete"
host = "imdb8.p.rapidapi.com"
}
parameter("q", title)
headers {
append(HttpHeaders.Accept, "application/json")
append(HttpHeaders.ContentType, ContentType.Application.Json)
append(HttpHeaders.UserAgent, "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/94.0.4606.81 Safari/537.36")
append(HttpHeaders.Authorization, API_KEY)
append("X-Rapidapi-Key", API_KEY)
append("X-Rapidapi-Host", "imdb8.p.rapidapi.com")
}
}
println(result.d)
}
}
Data Classes:
import kotlinx.serialization.Serializable
@Serializable data class D(
val l: String
)
@Serializable data class IMDBInfo(
val d: List<D>,
)
JSON which is valid and processed in the response:
