why i get An error occurred while executing doInBackground()

Issue

im trying to create an app that pulls info from the web using api and JSONObject. I learned that i need to use asyncTask to do it, so i create a class that extends asyncTask. but the app keep crashing.

my asynTask:

public class MyDownloadTask extends AsyncTask<String, String, String> {

SecondActivity secondActivity;
Context context;

boolean tof;

@Override
protected String doInBackground(String... urls) {
    MyBoiler myData = null;
    try {
        myData = new MyBoiler("0e3a4cef498bc2ad18a97e1817c79e87", "50.4019514,30.6727719", "Ramat-Gan");
        tof = myData.openBoiler(30, 20);

    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (JSONException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    return tof ? "true" : "false";
}


@Override
protected void onPostExecute(String s) {
    super.onPostExecute(s);

    printToTV(tof, secondActivity);
}


public void printToTV(boolean turnOnOrNot, Context context){
    int cloud = 0;
    int temp = 0;
    LinearLayout linearLayout = (LinearLayout)secondActivity.findViewById(R.id.secActLayout);
    TextView tvToF = new TextView(context);
    TextView tvCloud = new TextView(context);
    TextView tvTemp = new TextView(context);

    tvToF.setText(turnOnOrNot ? "Turn On" : "Dont Turn On");
    String cloudString = String.valueOf(cloud);
    tvCloud.setText(cloud + "% cloud coverage");
    String tempString = String.valueOf(temp);
    tvTemp.setText(temp + " Celsius Degrees");
    linearLayout.addView(tvToF);
    linearLayout.addView(tvCloud);
    linearLayout.addView(tvTemp);
}

}

the activity im trying to use it

public class SecondActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

Button boilerBtn;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_second);


    boilerBtn = findViewById(R.id.openBoilerBtn);
    boilerBtn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){

        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            new MyDownloadTask().execute(MyBoiler.fullURL);
        }


    });
}

myBoiler class:

public class MyBoiler {
public final String API_URL = "https://api.darksky.net/forecast/"; // url of the site
private String apiKey; // api key from the site
private String GPSlocation; // gps location -_-
private String rawData; // the raw data
protected static String fullURL; // the full url location
private String cityName; // name of the city
JSONObject jsonObject;

public MyBoiler(String apiKey, String GPSlocation, String cityName) throws IOException, JSONException {
    this.apiKey = apiKey;
    this.GPSlocation = GPSlocation;
    this.cityName = cityName;
    // create the full url
    fullURL = API_URL + this.apiKey + "/" + this.GPSlocation;
}

private JSONObject readJsonFromUrl()throws IOException, JSONException{
    //open a connection to the internet
    InputStream is = new URL(this.fullURL).openStream();
    // create a buffer for collection of all data
    BufferedReader buf = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is, Charset.forName("UTF-8")));
    // read all data and append it to one happy string
    String jsonText = readAll(buf);
    //convert to json object so we can use the json power
    jsonObject = new JSONObject(jsonText);
    // returns the json object
    return jsonObject;
}

private String readAll(BufferedReader rd) throws IOException {
    // create a string builder
    StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
    // create a char point
    int cp;
    while((cp = rd.read()) != -1){
        sb.append(cp);
    }
    // sets the rawData value to the string
    rawData = sb.toString();
    // return the result
    return sb.toString();
}

public String getRaw(){
    return rawData;
}

public int getCloud(JSONObject cur) throws  IOException, JSONException{
    int cloud = (int)(cur.getDouble("cloudCover")*100);
    return cloud;
}

public int getTemp(JSONObject cur) throws IOException, JSONException{
   int temp = (int)(cur.getDouble("temperature"));
   return (int)((temp-32)/1.8);
}

public boolean openBoiler(int tolerance, int minTemp)throws IOException, JSONException{
    JSONObject myData = readJsonFromUrl();
    JSONObject currently = myData.getJSONObject("currently");

    return getCloud(currently) > tolerance && getTemp(currently) < minTemp;
}

}

my Second activity xml:

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:orientation="vertical"

Solution

Internet permission is missing, Add the following code to your AndroidManifest.xml

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
