Calling Google AJAX Search API from Java
Without much ado, here's the code:
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
public class GoogleAJAXSearchAPI {
private static String endpointURL = "http://www.google.com/uds/GwebSearch?"+
"callback=GwebSearch.Raw" +
"Completion&context=0&lstkp=0&rsz=small&hl=en&" +
"sig=8656f49c146c5220e273d16b4b6978b2&q=Axis2&key=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx&v=1.0";
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
URLConnection uc = new URL(endpointURL).openConnection();
HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) uc;
connection.setDoOutput(true);
connection.setRequestMethod("GET");
connection.connect();
String line;
InputStream inputStream = null;
try {
inputStream = connection.getInputStream();
} catch (IOException e) {
inputStream = connection.getErrorStream();
}
BufferedReader rd = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(inputStream));
while ((line = rd.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(line);
}
}
}
Where xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx is your Google AJAX Search API key. No clue what the other parameters means in the URL. I used Firefox / Live HTTP Headers / TCPMON's proxy support to come up with this snippet.
