Can't get data on detailviewcontroller with Hpple parsing - html

I am a beginner in Obj-C and I try to make an app with this raywenderlich tutorial.
I parse html page with Title of articles (mininglife.ru) , also I getting an urls of each articles and keep it in an NSMutableArray for using it in my DetailviewController.
But when I try to pull urls off and put it in NSUrl nothing happens. I've tried a lot of ways, Can you help me with it and try to explain if I do something wrong. Thank you.
-(void)loadArticles{
Articlelist *urlOfArticle = [_objects objectAtIndex:self]; // from previous parsing
NSURL *articleUrl = [NSURL URLWithString:urlOfArticle.url];// I think this string is wrong, or?
NSData *htmlUrlsData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:articleUrl];
TFHpple *articleParser = [TFHpple hppleWithHTMLData:htmlUrlsData];
NSString *articleNameXpath = #"/html/body/div[1]/div/div[1]/main/article/h1";
// NSString *articleContentXpath = #"//div[#class'entry-content']//p";
NSArray *articleNameNodes = [articleParser searchWithXPathQuery:articleNameXpath];
// NSArray *articleContentNodes = [articleParser searchWithXPathQuery:articleContentXpath];
NSMutableArray *newArticleArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithCapacity:0];
for (TFHppleElement *element in articleNameNodes) {
Article *newArticleName = [[Article alloc] init];
[newArticleArray addObject:newArticleName];
newArticleName.name = [[element firstChild] content];
}
_articleName = newArticleArray;
[self.tableView reloadData];
}

Change interface to this
#interface MasterViewController () {
NSMutableArray *_articles;
}
#end
Add this to MasterViewController
- (void)loadArticles
{
NSURL *articlesUrl = [NSURL URLWithString:#"http://mininglife.ru"];
NSData *articlesHtmlData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:articlesUrl];
TFHpple *articlesParser = [TFHpple hppleWithHTMLData:articlesHtmlData];
NSString *articlesXpathQueryString = #"/html/body/div[1]/div/div[1]/main/article/h1";
NSArray *articlesNodes = [articlesParser searchWithXPathQuery:articlesXpathQueryString];
NSMutableArray *newArticles = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithCapacity:0];
for (TFHppleElement *element in articlesNodes) {
Article *article = [[Article alloc] init];
[newArticles addObject:article];
article.title = [[element firstChild] content];
article.url = [element objectForKey:#"href"];
}
_articles = newArticles;
[self.tableView reloadData];
}
Change DetailviewController.h's interface to
#class Article;
#interface DetailViewController : UIViewController
#property (strong, nonatomic) Article *article;
#property (strong, nonatomic) IBOutlet UILabel *detailDescriptionLabel;
#end
Change DetailViewController.m to
#import "DetailViewController.h"
#import "Article.h"
#import "TFHpple.h"
#implementation DetailViewController
#synthesize detailDescriptionLabel = _detailDescriptionLabel;
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
[self loadArticle];
}
- (void)loadArticle
{
NSURL *articleUrl = [NSURL URLWithString:self.article.url];
NSData *articleHtmlData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:articleUrl];
TFHpple *articleParser = [TFHpple hppleWithHTMLData:articleHtmlData];
NSString *articleXpathQueryString = #"//div[#class'entry-content']//p";
NSArray *articleNodes = [articleParser searchWithXPathQuery:articleXpathQueryString];
NSMutableArray *newArticleContents = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithCapacity:0];
for (TFHppleElement *element in articleNodes) {
[newArticleContents addObject:[[element firstChild] content]];
}
NSLog(#"%#", newArticleContents);
}
- (id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibNameOrNil bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundleOrNil
{
self = [super initWithNibName:nibNameOrNil bundle:nibBundleOrNil];
if (self) {
self.title = NSLocalizedString(#"Detail", #"Detail");
}
return self;
}
#end
Don't forget to change all call to loadTutorials to loadArticles in MasterViewController. PS: This example only prints the articles content to the console
Your xPath might be wrong as well

You Can use also use sqlite for the data.

Thanks
You should use innerHtml instead sinnerHtml, besides this you need to get the string and load this string into another webview. Pls see example
#import "ViewController.h"
#interface ViewController ()
#property (strong, nonatomic) IBOutlet UIWebView *fakeView;
#end
#implementation ViewController
UIActivityIndicatorView *activityIndicator;
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
activityIndicator = [[UIActivityIndicatorView alloc] initWithActivityIndicatorStyle:UIActivityIndicatorViewStyleWhiteLarge];
[activityIndicator stopAnimating];
[self callDetailNews];
}

[super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}

[self.fakeView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:articleURL]];

pull to refresh uitableview json parsing data

i'm using json rss feed parsing in my rss app, i have table view loading titles , thumbnails and sending links of titles to a web view each in it's own nsmutable array, however , i'm adding a pull to refresh in my app , i followed alot of tutorials , i added the code, when i pull , i get the spinning wheel , and loads and stops, but my new feed isn't loaded, how do i make sure the parsing method gets recalled , bnot just refreshen table happens , below is my code :

i found the answer , i had to empty the table view , and recall the nsurl , reload data and end refreshing , it works perfectly now
here is the code everyone:
- (void)refresh {
[feeds removeAllObjects];
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:#"http://icuore.ly/category/ipad/feed/"];
parser = [[NSXMLParser alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:url];
[parser setDelegate:self];
[parser setShouldResolveExternalEntities:NO];
[parser parse];
[self.tableView reloadData];
[refreshControl endRefreshing];
NSLog(#"fetching data from the server");
}

How to put JSON element into UITextView?

I have a MySQL database and a PHP script that work perfectly. However, I was wondering how I could get this data from JSON format to a UITextView. I also have a table being populated with 2 other JSON elements. Thanks!

{
NSDictionary *jsonElement = jsonArray[i];

[_locations addObject:newdata];
}
// Ready to notify delegate that data is ready and pass back items
if (self.delegate)
{
[self.delegate itemsDownloaded:_locations];
}
}
#end
If you wan to display the JSON in UITextView in storyboard, kindly try the following:
#implementation ViewController
NSString * JSON;
-(void) viewDidLoad
{
JSON = //get data from remote;
NSString *stringForTextView = #"";
NSData *data = [JSON dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSArray *array = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:data options:kNilOptions error:nil];
if([array count] >0)
{
for(NSDictionary *d in array)
{
stringForTextView = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"Title:%#\nSubTitle:%#\nDescription:%#\n", [d valueForKey:#"Title"], [d valueForKey:#"SubTitle"], [d valueForKey:#"Description"]];
}
}
_textView.text = stringForTextView;
}
#end

Cannot get UISearchBar code working

xcode newbie trying to get UISearchBar functionality working.
I am using storyboards and my tableview controller shows a list of events (title, location & start date)in the cells from the array json. When the table firsts loads all of my results are displayed ok. When I click put some text into the search bar (text that exists in the title) nothing is shown in the view controller (I.e. it filters all of the events out). Hopefully this makes a bit more sense.
My header file is
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#define kGETUrl #"http://www.max-momentus.com/fetchevents.php5"

Have you made sure you have the delegates: in your view controllers .h file? Also, make sure you've selected the "UISearchBar and UISearchDisplay Controller" as your search bar object from the storyboard (assuming you're using storyboards). Make sure you've linked your SearchBar to have your view controller be its delegate, and it's connected to an IBOutlet object in your code (again, assuming your using storyboards:
#property (strong, nonatomic) IBOutlet UISearchBar *searchBar;
Finally, make that you have declared a UISearchDisplayController variable, linked it to your UITableView and then make sure when loading the results from a search, to check in your
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
and
- (NSInteger)numberOfRowsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView
if:
if(tableView == searchDisplay):
{
...load results.
}
else
{
...load normal view
}
