RestAdapter (retrofit) not resolving in android

Question

So I am trying to use Retrofit for my project. As the site says I have included compile \'com.squareup.retrofit:retrofit:2.0.0-beta1\' in build.gradle

Answer 1

In Retrofit 2.0, Converter is not included in the package anymore. You need to plug a Converter in yourself or Retrofit will be able to accept only the String result. As a result, Retrofit 2.0 doesn't depend on Gson anymore.

If you want to accept json result and make it parse into DAO, you have to summon Gson Converter as a separate dependency.

compile 'com.squareup.retrofit:converter-gson:2.0.0-beta2'

And plug it in through addConverterFactory. Please note that RestAdapter is now also renamed to Retrofit.

Retrofit retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder()
        .baseUrl("http://api.nuuneoi.com/base/")
        .addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
        .build();

service = retrofit.create(APIService.class);
