How to access JSON web services from QML

[qtuser01]

Translated from Spanish with Google

I would like to know what is needed to access JSON web data, specifically to the API of
Community Radio Browser: http://www.radio-browser.info/webservice

For example, this call:
Http://www.radio-browser.info/webservice/json/stations/bytag/soul

Until now I had the following example of access to the Flickr API of the book Qt 5 Cadaques (https://qmlbook.github.io/en/ch11/index.html#flickr-calls), but it does not work for other services:

import QtQuick 2.5

Rectangle {
width: 320
height: 480
ListView {
id: view
anchors.fill: parent
delegate: Thumbnail {
width: view.width
text: modelData.title
iconSource: modelData.media.m
}
}

function request() {
    var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
    xhr.onreadystatechange = function() {
        if (xhr.readyState === XMLHttpRequest.HEADERS_RECEIVED) {
            print('HEADERS_RECEIVED')
        } else if(xhr.readyState === XMLHttpRequest.DONE) {
            print('DONE')
            var json = JSON.parse(xhr.responseText.toString())
            view.model = json.items
        }
    }
    xhr.open("GET", "http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photos_public.gne?format=json&nojsoncallback=1&tags=munich");
    xhr.send();
}

Component.onCompleted: {
    request()
}

}

Does it depend on whether the JSON response returns a callback or not?

For me this example is not even working anymore.

It just gives:

SyntaxError: JSON.parse: Parse error

@sandro4912 Do you really think this is important to know 3 years after the question was opened?

Maybe this is a better resource.
