I am using Android Studio 2.0(preview). In order to display some info about certain movies , I downloaded Themoviedb.com API Wrapper by holgerbrandl , added a dependency but just after I add two lines of the wrapper-related code I get a lot of errors I'm not familiar how to deal with.
TmdbMovies movies = new TmdbApi("myAPIkey_here").getMovies();
MovieDb movie = movies.getMovie(5353, "en");
I'm a very inexperienced newbie - thus the need of your help :)
If any details needed, please remind me to add them.
Here's my logcat :

}I'm actually learning TheMovieDB API for a school project right now.
Apparently, whenever you want to use the network on android and connect to something, you need to put the statement inside an async task; something to do with network connections not working on the main thread.
To do this you can create a custom AsyncTask in your activity like so:
protected class MovieTask extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, MovieDB> {
protected MovieDB doInBackground(Void... v) {
TmdbMovies movies = new TmdbApi("myAPIkey_here").getMovies();
MovieDb movie = movies.getMovie(5353, "en");
return movie;
}
protected void onPostExecute(MovieDB movie) {
// Do something with movie
}
}
And your MainActivity onCreate would look like
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
MainText = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.main_text);
MovieTask mt = new MovieTask();
mt.execute();
}
