How to bind JSON data in Xamarin DataForm?
You can bind the data from JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) in Xamarin DataForms.
C#
Create a JSON data model.
/// <summary>
/// Represents custom data properties.
/// </summary>
public class JSONData
{
public string UserName { get; set; }
public string UserGender { get; set; }
public string UserMail { get; set; }
public string UserCountry { get; set; }
}
Convert String type into DateTime type when adding items to the local collection from JSON data model, since JSON does not support DateTime type.
C#
Create data for the data model.
//// Add data for JSON data model
private string JsonData =
"[{\"UserName\": \"Chan\",\"UserGender\": \"Male\",\"UserMail\": \"chan@yyy.com\",\"UserCountry\": \"Japan\", \"UserBirthDate\": \"05/01/1996\"}]";
C#
Deserialize the JSON data as list of JSON data model.
List<JSONData> jsonDataCollection = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<JSONData>>(JsonData);
C#
Load the JSON data list into the DataForm model.
foreach (var data in jsonDataCollection)
{
this.ContactsInfo.Name = data.UserName;
this.ContactsInfo.Gender = data.UserGender;
this.ContactsInfo.Email = data.UserMail;
this.ContactsInfo.Country = data.UserCountry;
this.ContactsInfo.DateOfBirth = Convert.ToDateTime(data.UserBirthDate);
}
