I want to make a user registration page using volley but I am unable to send data to the server. It's the first time I am using volley. I have included all the permissions and server is also running appropriately, I am just unable to send the data to the online database.
When I run it, it gives the following message: "warning mysqli prepare() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli, boolean given in home..."
Please help. Here's my android code: User class contains String of name, username, mobile, password.
private void registerUser(final User user) {
StringRequest stringRequest = new StringRequest(Request.Method.POST, SERVER_ADDRESS + "Register.php",
new Response.Listener<String>() {
@Override
public void onResponse(String response) {
Toast.makeText(Register.this,response,Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
},
new Response.ErrorListener() {
@Override
public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
Toast.makeText(Register.this,error.toString(),Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}){
@Override
protected Map<String,String> getParams(){
Map<String,String> params = new HashMap<String, String>();
params.put("name",user.name);
params.put("username", user.username);
params.put("mobile", user.mobile);
params.put("password", user.password);
Log.d(name+username+"her", "her");
return params;
}
};
RequestQueue requestQueue = Volley.newRequestQueue(this);
requestQueue.add(stringRequest);
}
}
And here's the php file:
<?php
if($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD']=='POST'){
$con=mysqli_connect("localhost","dbName","pass","userName");
$name = $_POST["name"];
$username = $_POST["username"];
$mobile = $_POST["mobile"];
$password = $_POST["password"];
$statement = mysqli_prepare($con, "INSERT INTO UserDetails (name, username, mobile, password) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?)");
mysqli_stmt_bind_param($statement, "ssss", $name, $username, $mobile, $password);
mysqli_stmt_execute($statement);
echo $name, $username, $mobile, $password;
mysqli_stmt_close($statement);
mysqli_close($con);}
?>
You need to start the queue before adding any request to it.
RequestQueue requestQueue = Volley.newRequestQueue(this);
requestQueue.start()
requestQueue.add(stringRequest);
Please make sure that you call start() only once. Hence create a singleton class VolleyManager, when you create a instance of this class it should create a request queue and start it. For each API call just call VolleyManager.getInstance().getQueue().add(stringRequest)
