UITable view to detail view JSON parsing with AFNetworking - iphone

I managed to parse data from YouTube API on UITable view using AFNetworking but i cant figure out how to use
didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
How do i pass the JSON data to the next view ?
Here is the link to the file: google drive
Here is my code
#import "KKViewController.h"
#import "AFNetworking.h"
#import "AFJSONRequestOperation.h"
#interface KKViewController ()
#end
#implementation KKViewController
#synthesize movies = _movies, count = _count;
- (id)initWithStyle:(UITableViewStyle)style
{
self = [super initWithStyle:style];
if (self) {
// Custom initialization
}
return self;
}
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
self.movies = [[NSArray alloc] init];
NSURL *url = [[NSURL alloc] initWithString:#"http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/playlists/PL0l3xlkh7UnvLdr0Zz3XZZuP2tENy_qaP?v=2&alt=jsonc&max-results=50"];
NSURLRequest *request = [[NSURLRequest alloc] initWithURL:url];
AFJSONRequestOperation *operation = [AFJSONRequestOperation JSONRequestOperationWithRequest:request success:^(NSURLRequest *request, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, id JSON) {
self.movies = [JSON valueForKeyPath:#"data.items.video"];
// NSLog(##, video)
//
self.count = [JSON valueForKeyPath:#"data.items.video.thumbnail"];
[self.activityIndicatorView stopAnimating];
[self.tableView setHidden:NO];
[self.tableView reloadData];
} failure:^(NSURLRequest *request, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, NSError *error, id JSON) {
NSLog(#"Request Failed with Error: %#, %#", error, error.userInfo);
}];
[operation start];
// Uncomment the following line to preserve selection between presentations.
// self.clearsSelectionOnViewWillAppear = NO;
// Uncomment the following line to display an Edit button in the navigation bar for this view controller.
// self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = self.editButtonItem;
}

{
[super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
#pragma mark - Table view data source
- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView
{
// Return the number of sections.
return 1;
}
- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
// Return the number of rows in the section.
if (self.movies && self.movies.count) {
return self.movies.count;
} else {
return 0;
}
}
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
static NSString *cellID = #"Cell Identifier";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:cellID];
if (!cell) {
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle reuseIdentifier:cellID];
}
NSDictionary *movie = [self.movies objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
NSDictionary *countt = [self.count objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
cell.textLabel.text = [movie objectForKey:#"title"];
cell.detailTextLabel.text = [movie objectForKey:#"uploader"];
NSURL *url = [[NSURL alloc] initWithString:[countt objectForKey:#"hqDefault"]];
[cell.imageView setImageWithURL:url placeholderImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"placeholder"]];
return cell;
}

I hope this sample code will help you to accomplish your needs easily.
Please ask if anything look ambiguous to you.
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
[self.leadsTableView deselectRowAtIndexPath:indexPath animated:YES];
id object = [[self.tableData objectAtIndex:indexPath.section] objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
self.leadforLeadDetails = (Lead*)object;
self.selectedLeadID = self.leadforLeadDetails.ID;
[self performSegueWithIdentifier:#"openLeadDetails" sender:self];
// Navigation logic may go here. Create and push another view controller.
/*
<#DetailViewController#> *detailViewController = [[<#DetailViewController#> alloc] initWithNibName:#"<#Nib name#>" bundle:nil];
// ...
// Pass the selected object to the new view controller.
[self.navigationController pushViewController:detailViewController animated:YES];
*/
}
- (void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender
{
//NSIndexPath *indexPath = [self.tableView2 indexPathForCell:sender];
//[self.tableView2 deselectRowAtIndexPath:indexPath animated:YES];
if ([segue.identifier isEqualToString:#"openLeadDetails"])
{
LeadsDetailsTableViewController *destViewController = segue.destinationViewController;
destViewController.dictLeadDetails = self.dictLeadDetails;
destViewController.leadID = self.leadforLeadDetails.ID;
destViewController.Name = self.leadforLeadDetails.Name;
destViewController.leadDetails.ID = self.leadforLeadDetails.ID;
destViewController.leadDetails.Name = self.leadforLeadDetails.Name;
}
}

You could either:
Define a segue in your storyboard's prototype for the cell in question and you don't have to write a didSelectRowAtIndexPath at all;
Have didSelectRowAtIndexPath do a performSegueWithIdentifier (giving it the unique string "storyboard identifier" that you set up for your segue in the storyboard;
You can then write a prepareSegue that would look at the table's indexPathForSelectedRow to identify what row was selected. You can then grab the appropriate information from your app's model and set the appropriate property in the destinationViewController.
You could also have didSelectRowAtIndexPath do an instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier set the property, and then do the appropriate pushViewController or presentViewController, but I personally prefer the above techniques that leverage the segues you've defined in your storyboard.

Why is my tableView blank? Am I not reloading my datasource correctly?

Both of the NSLog's in viewWillAppear and numberOfRowsInSection are showing the data I'd like to populated in the tableView.
I thought this problem had something to do with returning the correct count but, since the NSLogs match, I'm not sure that that's the problem.
Also, I figured that that was the problem because cellForRowAtIndexPath isn't being called.
Am I not reloading my tableView correctly? Thanks so much for the help.

What is the count of your Array at the end of - (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section ?
Because if I look at the documentation of PFQuery, which I must say I've never used.
findObjectsInBackgroundWithBlock:
Finds objects asynchronously and calls the given block with the results.
- (void)findObjectsInBackgroundWithBlock:(PFArrayResultBlock)block
Parameters
block
The block to execute. The block should have the following argument signature:(NSArray objects, NSError error)
Discussion
Finds objects asynchronously and calls the given block with the results.
The description would suggest that at the end of your method the count of the Array is '0'. And only later when the block that you've past to the method run then you will have an array with data. And at that moment you would need to save you array and call [tableView reloadData] .
That would explain this :
Also, I figured that that was the problem because cellForRowAtIndexPath isn't being called.
This is probably the result of row in section being 0, because if your numberOfRowsInSection
method is called it means that your dataSource is properly set.
BUT there is an other much Bigger Problem with your code.
Because every time the table view wants to reload it's data, your making a fetch request, that will ask the table view to reload itself, which in turn will ask for a new query, that will ask the tableView to reload itself, which in turn... you get the picture.
You should make your query in viewDidLoad, viewWillAppear, or other place in the life cycle of your viewController that make sense for that query to be made, depending on the volatility of the data, how often the call need to be made etc.
And Also remember that updating the tableView must be done on the main thread. The documentation for PFQuery doesn't specify on which thread you'll be when the block will be running.
reload the table view after fetching data:
add this line:
listArray = [objects mutableCopy];
[tableView reloadData]

getting empty UITable with AFNetworking JSON Parsing

UITableView and Async loading with NSURLconnection

I'm having an issue which to me looks like my JSON URL request is completing after I load my UITableView. I attempted to reload the UITableview but that either isn't working properly or didn't do the trick as some of the other questions suggested. This viewcontroller is being coming off an AppDelegate. Would appreciate a steer if anyone sees something I'm not doing right.

}
-(void)setupArray{

You're missing some delegate methods. ResponseData is equal to nil. You haven't handled the response data at all. Check out Apple's docs. https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/URLLoadingSystem/Tasks/UsingNSURLConnection.html
You're missing the didReceiveData and didReceiveResponse delegate methods. See here:

Putting my JSON into a tableView

what i'm currently trying to do is get my json information (twitter user timeline) and stick it into a table, everything about it json works, but when it comes to adding the information to the tableView it doesn't do anything about it, Here is my code :

but it never loads the data into the table view, any help?
Side note:
I am using it with interface builder.
& Ideally i'd like to make a custom cell so i could work out the layout each cell, so if you know of any good sites which will show how to do that, that'd also be a big hand.
you have to return at least one section to the table at a minimum. right now you are return zero sections.
- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView
{
// Return the number of sections.
return 0;
}
- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView
{
return 1;
}
You missed the reloadData at the end of your fetchData implementation.

Just before your dealloc method you have a spurious */ which needs removing.
enter code hereRight at teh end of your file you have the following:
// Override to support conditional rearranging of the table view.
- (BOOL)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView canMoveRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
// Return NO if you do not want the item to be re-orderable.
return YES;
}
*/
That last end comment block */ should be removed as it has no start block. leaving:
// Override to support conditional rearranging of the table view.
- (BOOL)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView canMoveRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
// Return NO if you do not want the item to be re-orderable.
return YES;
