Edit: 2020 update -- Please disregard the question below as Google's weather API is no longer able to be used. If you are interested in using a weather API, Darksky is the defacto that most people use: https://darksky.net/dev

If you use Java, the normal way to parse the JSON is using org.json: https://devqa.io/java/how-to-parse-json-in-java

Original question below.

I've been playing around with xml documents and java a bit recently, but I've had absolutely no luck using the google weather API.

Let's assume that I'm trying to do a simple object to store current temp, and forecast temp for just tomorrow, how would I do this?

http://www.google.com/ig/api?weather=02110 Is the working example for my home city.

Thanks

Using this code:

public static final String[] xmlLoader(){
    String xmlData[] = new String[2];
    try {
        URL googleWeatherXml = new URL("http://www.google.com/ig/api?weather=02110");
        DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
        DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();    
        Document doc = db.parse(googleWeatherXml.openStream());

         // normalize text representation
        doc.getDocumentElement ().normalize ();
        NodeList listOfWeek = doc.getElementsByTagName("");

            Node firstWeekNode = listOfWeek.item(dateCounter-1);
            int totalWeeks = listOfWeek.getLength();


            //Break xml file into parts, then break those parts down int an array by passing individual elements to srtings
            if(firstWeekNode.getNodeType() == Node.ELEMENT_NODE){
                Element firstWeekElement = (Element)firstWeekNode;
                //-------
                NodeList dateList = firstWeekElement.getElementsByTagName("date");
                Element dateElement = (Element)dateList.item(0);

                NodeList textDateList = dateElement.getChildNodes();
                xmlData[0]= (((Node)textDateList.item(0)).getNodeValue().trim()).toString();

                //-------
                NodeList riddleList = firstWeekElement.getElementsByTagName("riddle");
                Element riddleElement = (Element)riddleList.item(0);

                NodeList textRiddleList = riddleElement.getChildNodes();
                xmlData[1]= (((Node)textRiddleList.item(0)).getNodeValue().trim()).toString();

                //----
                NodeList lWSList = firstWeekElement.getElementsByTagName("lastWeekSolution");
                Element ageElement = (Element)lWSList.item(0);

                NodeList textLWSList = ageElement.getChildNodes();
                xmlData[2]= (((Node)textLWSList.item(0)).getNodeValue().trim()).toString();

                //------
            }//end of if clause

    }
    catch(MalformedURLException f){System.err.println(f.getMessage()); }
    catch(NullPointerException npe){
        System.out.println("The Weather Data you searched for is incorrect or does not yet exist, try again. ");
        String s[] = {" ", " "};
        main(s);
    }

   catch (SAXParseException err) {
    System.out.println ("** Parsing error" + ", line " 
         + err.getLineNumber () + ", uri " + err.getSystemId ());
    System.out.println(" " + err.getMessage ());

    }
    catch (SAXException e) {
    Exception x = e.getException ();
    ((x == null) ? e : x).printStackTrace ();

    }catch (Throwable t) {
    t.printStackTrace ();
    }
    return xmlData;
}

Getting tons of null pointers, no matter what I do.

当您调用 .getElementsByTagName() 时，您需要对返回的值进行保护：

NodeList dateList = firstWeekElement.getElementsByTagName("date");
if (datelist != null) {
    Element dateElement = (Element)dateList.item(0);

等等。

更新

现在我查看 XML，我发现没有 <date> 元素；这就是为什么 dateList 为空的原因。您想要寻找像 <forecast_information> 和 <city> 这样的元素。

NodeList forecasts = firstWeekElement.getElementsByTagName("forecast_information");
if (forecasts != null) {
    Element forecastElement = (Element)forecasts.item(0);
