Russian@mahtOrz: Okay, here's some rough code that will deliver a Json back to the console. Note that the api base search string is different than the one you have which is www.google.com/search?q=cupertino+american+food. You need to use the Google API base URL below. Do you have your APIkey and CxKey? If not, I can walk you through those steps too.
using System;
using System.Text;
using System.Net;
using System.IO;
using System.Web;
namespace GoogleSearchTest1
{
class Program
{
//Google keys
const string APIKey = "{your key here}";
const string CSEKey = "{your key here}";
//base url for the search query
const string GoogleBaseURL = "https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?"; //per Google documentation
public static void Main(string[] args)
{
string myQuery = "cupertino american food"; //put what you're searching for here
string result = submitSearch(myQuery);
Console.WriteLine(result);
string dummy = Console.ReadLine();
}
public static string submitSearch(string myQuery)
{
try
{
string final = string.Format(GoogleBaseURL+"key={0}&cx={1}&q={2}",
HttpUtility.UrlEncode(APIKey),
HttpUtility.UrlEncode(CSEKey),
HttpUtility.UrlEncode(myQuery));
final += "&alt=json";
WebRequest myRequest = WebRequest.Create(final);
HttpWebResponse myResponse = (HttpWebResponse)myRequest.GetResponse();
Stream myStream = myResponse.GetResponseStream();
StreamReader myReader = new StreamReader(myResponse.GetResponseStream(), System.Text.Encoding.UTF8);
string result = myReader.ReadToEnd();
myStream.Close();
myReader.Close();
myResponse.Close();
return result;
}
catch (Exception e)
{
//debug statement
}
return null;
}
}
}
