A simple JSON example to access MyFxBook

Hi,
would somebody have a small JSON based example to share that would help in getting started with using JSON to retrieve and display data from MyFxBook?
Just a very basic one to help understand the structure of the way it's done, so e.g. have a login, retrieve something from MyFxBook and then writing that to the browser/display.
That would great!
Thanks,
M

Sure, here you go:
This is in Java.
public Session getData(String username, String password) throws MalformedURLException, IOException{
Gson json = null;
URL url = null;
Session session = null;
String myfxbook= 'https://www.myfxbook.com/api/login.json?';
URL url = new URL(myfxbook + 'email=' + username + '&password=' + password);
InputStream is = url.openStream();
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
json = new GsonBuilder().setPrettyPrinting().create();
session = json.fromJson(reader, Session.class); //puts the json into a bean
return session;
}
