Android Cascading Spinners Using Php Mysql

Post Views: 11,696

Android Cascading Spinner – In this post we will see how we can populate second spinner dynamically based on selection of first spinner. We will select a category from first spinner then we will fetch data from mysql database according to the selected category.So let’s start with php, mysql part.

Installing XAMPP Server

Before do anything firstly check you have XAMPP Server on your system. Alternatively you can use WAMP (For Windows), LAMP (For Linux) and MAMP (For MAC).

If you don’t have XAMPP Server you can Download and Install form https://www.apachefriends.org/download.html

Start Apache and Mysql form XAMPP Control Panel.

Creating MySql Database

In this tutorial to demonstrate we will take two Spinners. First Spinner is for loading Mobile Names and Second for to load Mobile Model Names of that Mobile which we selected from first spinner.

Open phpmyadmin to open this type localhost/phpmyadmin in Internet Browser and Create a Database and Table.

Creating Database

CREATE DATABASE mobile;

1	CREATE DATABASE mobile;

Creating model table

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `model` (
  `uid` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `mobile` varchar(10) NOT NULL,
  `model` varchar(50) NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`uid`)
);

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `model` (

`uid` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,

`mobile` varchar(10) NOT NULL,

`model` varchar(50) NOT NULL,

PRIMARY KEY (`uid`)

);

Inserting Data

INSERT INTO `model` (`mobile`, `model`) VALUES
('Samsung', 'Galaxy S7'),
('Samsung', 'Galaxy S7 Edge'),
('Apple', 'iphone 7'),
('Xiaomi', 'MI Note 4'),
('Xiaomi', 'MI 4'),
('Samsung', 'Note 8'),
('Samsung', 'A8+'),
('Apple', 'iphone 7 Plus'),
('Apple', 'iphone x'),
('Xiaomi', 'MI Y1');

INSERT INTO `model` (`mobile`, `model`) VALUES

('Samsung', 'Galaxy S7'),

('Samsung', 'Galaxy S7 Edge'),

('Apple', 'iphone 7'),

('Xiaomi', 'MI Note 4'),

('Xiaomi', 'MI 4'),

('Samsung', 'Note 8'),

('Samsung', 'A8+'),

('Apple', 'iphone 7 Plus'),

('Apple', 'iphone x'),

('Xiaomi', 'MI Y1');

Creating PHP Files

In this part we will create 3 files.

config.php – This file will have Database Name, Username and Password.
DbConnect.php – A class to open and close the database connection.
get_model.php – To fetch Model Name of Mobiles from Database.

Open htdocs folder under C:\xampp and Create folder CascedingSpinner .In this folder create file-

config.php- In this file we mentioned database name, username, password and host name. If your mysql database is having a password, don’t forget to define it here.

<?php //Database configuration define('DB_USERNAME', 'root'); define('DB_PASSWORD', ''); define('DB_HOST', 'localhost'); define('DB_NAME', 'mobile'); ?>

1
2

7
8

<?php
//Database configuration

define('DB_USERNAME', 'root');
define('DB_PASSWORD', '');
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
define('DB_NAME', 'mobile');
?>

DbConnect.php – A class to open and close the database connection.

<?php

// Connecting disconnecting Database

class DbConnect {
    
    private $conn;

    // constructor
    function __construct() {
        
        // connecting to database
        $this->connect();
    }

    // destructor
    function __destruct() {
        // closing db connection
        $this->close();
    }

    /**
     * Establishing database connection
     * @return database handler
     */
    function connect() {        
        include_once dirname(__FILE__) . '/config.php';
        
        // Connecting to mysql database
        $this->conn = mysql_connect(DB_HOST, DB_USERNAME, DB_PASSWORD) or die(mysql_error());

        // Selecting database
        mysql_select_db(DB_NAME) or die(mysql_error());
        
        // returing connection resource
        return $this->conn;
    }

    /**
     * Closing database connection
     */
    function close() {
        // closing db connection
        mysql_close($this->conn);
    }

}

?>

<?php

// Connecting disconnecting Database

class DbConnect {

private $conn;

// constructor

function __construct() {

// connecting to database

$this->connect();

}

// destructor

function __destruct() {

// closing db connection

$this->close();

}

/**

* Establishing database connection

* @return database handler

function connect() {

include_once dirname(__FILE__) . '/config.php';

// Connecting to mysql database

$this->conn = mysql_connect(DB_HOST, DB_USERNAME, DB_PASSWORD) or die(mysql_error());

// Selecting database

mysql_select_db(DB_NAME) or die(mysql_error());

// returing connection resource

return $this->conn;

}

/**

* Closing database connection

function close() {

// closing db connection

mysql_close($this->conn);

}

get_model.php – Here we simply open the database connection, catch Mobile Name from Query String , run a select query and build a response array and echo the json.

<?php
include_once './DbConnect.php';
 
function getModel(){
    $db = new DbConnect();
    // array for json response
    $response = array();
    $response["model"] = array();
	$mobile=$_GET['mobile'];
     
    // Mysql select query
    $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM model WHERE mobile='$mobile'");
     
    while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){
        // temporary array to create single category
        $tmp = array();
        $tmp["model"] = $row["model"];
         
        // push category to final json array
        array_push($response["model"], $tmp);
    }
     
    // keeping response header to json
    header('Content-Type: application/json');
     
    // echoing json result
    echo json_encode($response);
}
 
getModel();
?>

<?php

include_once './DbConnect.php';

function getModel(){

$db = new DbConnect();

// array for json response

$response = array();

$response["model"] = array();

$mobile=$_GET['mobile'];

// Mysql select query

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM model WHERE mobile='$mobile'");

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){

// temporary array to create single category

$tmp = array();

$tmp["model"] = $row["model"];

// push category to final json array

array_push($response["model"], $tmp);

}

// keeping response header to json

header('Content-Type: application/json');

// echoing json result

echo json_encode($response);

}

getModel();

We are done with server side part. Let’s move to Android Part.

Creating New Android Project – Android Cascading Spineer

Create a new project in Android Studio File–>New–>New Project.
Enter Application Name, Package Name, Select Empty Activity and click on finish.
Add library in app build.gradle file –

useLibrary 'org.apache.http.legacy'

1

useLibrary 'org.apache.http.legacy'

Our application will use Internet to access data so firstly we need to add INTERNET permission in AndroidManifest.xml file. Open your AndroidManifest.xml file and add following permission.<uses-permission android:name=”android.permission.INTERNET”/>

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.androidcodefinder.cascadingspinners">

    <!-- Internet Permissions -->
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>

    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
        android:supportsRtl="true"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
        <activity android:name=".MainActivity">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
    </application>

</manifest>

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

package="com.androidcodefinder.cascadingspinners">

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>

<application

android:allowBackup="true"

android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"

android:supportsRtl="true"

android:theme="@style/AppTheme">

</intent-filter>

</activity>

</application>

</manifest>

Create a class file named Model.java. This model class will be useful to convert json data into objects.

package com.androidcodefinder.cascadingspinners;

/**
 * Created by Sumeet Jain on 18-12-2017.
 */

public class Model {

    private String model;

    public Model(){}

    public Model(String model){
        this.model = model;
    }

    public void setModel(String model){
        this.model = model;
    }

    public String getModel(){
        return this.model;
    }

}

package com.androidcodefinder.cascadingspinners;

/**

* Created by Sumeet Jain on 18-12-2017.

public class Model {

private String model;

public Model(){}

public Model(String model){

this.model = model;

}

public void setModel(String model){

this.model = model;

}

public String getModel(){

return this.model;

}

Create a class named Handler.java and write the following code. makeServiceCall() method should be called to make http calls.

package com.androidcodefinder.cascadingspinners;

Open Values–>Strings.xml file and put values for arrary.

<resources>
    <string name="app_name">CascadingSpinners</string>
    <string-array name="mobile_arrays">
        <item>Apple</item>
        <item>Samsung</item>

<string-array name="mobile_arrays">

</resources>

Now we will design the interface for our main activity. We have two Spinners on our layout first will load Mobile name and a Second spinner to show the Model Name fetched from MySQL database. Open activity_main.xml file and insert the following code.

Open your MainActivity.java file add the basic code like declaring required variables, spinner listener etc. we defined an Async method to fetch list of Model Name from MySQL and showing them in spinner. Add the following code after onCreate block in MainActivity.java. I also added another method populateSpinnerModel() to takes care of loading the data into spinner. This async method should be called in onCreate method like new GetModelFromServer().execute(). complete code of MainActivity.java –

  Please add values of array in values–>strings.xml file
  
  <%resources>
  <%string name="app_name">CascadingSpinners<%/string>
  <%string-array name="mobile_arrays">
  <%item>Apple<%/item >
  <%item>Samsung<%/item>
  <%item>Xiaomi<%/item>
  <%/string-array>
  <%/resources>
  
  Remove % before use
