open Android app when internet connection is on otherwise display no internet connection message

Question

I just created an android app for fetching data from a website. I want to check if the device has an internet connection or not. If the device has internet connection, run my code and fetch the data and display it, otherwise if the device has no internet, then display the no internet connection message. I have tried this code to check the internet connection. How can I call the code when there is an internet connection?

My Java code:

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_primary);
        new FetchWebsiteData().execute();        
            }
        });

    }

    private class FetchWebsiteData extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, String[]> {
        String websiteTitle, websiteDescription,websiteDescription1,websiteDescription2,websiteDescription3,listValue,listValue1;
        ProgressDialog progress;
        private Context context;

        //check Internet connection.
        private void checkInternetConnection(){

            ConnectivityManager check = (ConnectivityManager) this.context.
                    getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
            if (check != null)
            {
                NetworkInfo[] info = check.getAllNetworkInfo();
                if (info != null)
                    for (int i = 0; i <info.length; i++)
                        if (info[i].getState() == NetworkInfo.State.CONNECTED)
                        {
                            Toast.makeText(context, "Internet is connected",
                                    Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

                        }

            }
            else{
                Toast.makeText(context, "not conencted to internet",
                        Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
            }
        }

        @Override
        protected void onPreExecute() {
            super.onPreExecute();

            //some code here
        }

        @Override
        protected String[] doInBackground(Void... params) {
            ArrayList<String> hrefs=new ArrayList<String>();
            try {

                }

            } catch (IOException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
            //get the array list values
            for(String s:hrefs)
            {
                //some code
            }
            //parsing first URL
            String [] resultArray=null;
            try {


            } catch (IOException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
            //parsing second URL
            String [] resultArray1=null;
            try {



            } catch (IOException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }

            try{


            } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }


            return null;
        }



        @Override
        protected void onPostExecute(String[] result) {

            ListView list=(ListView)findViewById(R.id.listShow);
            ArrayAdapter<String> arrayAdapter=new ArrayAdapter<String>(getBaseContext(),android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,result);
            list.setAdapter(arrayAdapter);
            mProgressDialog.dismiss();
        }
    }
}

How can I run the code when the connection is open and how to display message when app has no internet connection?

Answer 1

try this

//check internet connection
public static boolean isNetworkStatusAvialable (Context context) {
    ConnectivityManager connectivityManager = (ConnectivityManager) context.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
    if (connectivityManager != null)
    {
        NetworkInfo netInfos = connectivityManager.getActiveNetworkInfo();
        if(netInfos != null)
        {
            return netInfos.isConnected();
        }
    }
    return false;
}

once the method return the value you have to check

//detect internet and show the data
    if(isNetworkStatusAvialable (getApplicationContext())) {
        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Internet detected", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        new FetchWebsiteData().execute();
    } else {
        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Please check your Internet Connection", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

    }

Answer 2

public static boolean hasInternetAccess(Context context) {

    if (isNetworkAvailable(context)) {
        try {
            HttpURLConnection urlc = (HttpURLConnection) 
                (new URL("http://clients3.google.com/generate_204")
                .openConnection());
            urlc.setRequestProperty("User-Agent", "Android");
            urlc.setRequestProperty("Connection", "close");
            urlc.setConnectTimeout(1500); 
            urlc.connect();
            return (urlc.getResponseCode() == 204 &&
                        urlc.getContentLength() == 0);
        } catch (IOException e) {
            Log.e(TAG, "Error checking internet connection", e);
        }
    } else {
        Log.d(TAG, "No network available!");
    }
    return false;
}

Answer 3

Here is class to get information about your internet connection https://gist.github.com/emil2k/5130324

Just copy and paste in your code and use it's methods

Answer 4

use this method for checking network availability

public static boolean isNetworkAvailable(Context context) {



    try{
    ConnectivityManager connectivityManager 
          = (ConnectivityManager)context.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE); 
    NetworkInfo activeNetworkInfo = connectivityManager.getActiveNetworkInfo();
    boolean s= activeNetworkInfo != null && activeNetworkInfo.isConnectedOrConnecting();

        return s;
    }
    catch(Exception e){

        System.out.println("exception network"+e);
        return false;
    }
}

if it returns true you can go ahead with network call else Toast a message of network unavailablity.
