Hi the question is i want to read the rows in this JSON is an Array, data is the headboard
>data: {..}
>rows [..]
-dataA: "Hi"
-dataB: "Hello"
im using :
if let json = try? JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: data, options: []) {
if let information = json as? [String : Any]{
let data = information["data"] as? [String : Any]
let rowsN = information["rows"] as? [[String : Any]]
for datab in rowsN{
let dataA = datab ["dataA"] as? String ?? ""
let dataB = datab ["dataB"] as? String ?? ""
print(dataA, dataB)
}
Why is not working?, i think is cause rows is not a headboard, in that case , How could I do it?
let rowsN = information["rows"] as? [[String : Any]] - seems to be the buggy line of code.
As per your example, rows are within data. So you should be trying data["rows"] and not information["rows"].
let rowsN = data["rows"] as? [[String : Any]]
Hope this clarifies
let str = """
{
"data": {
"rows": [
{"dataA": "Hi"},
{"dataB": "Hello"}
]
}
}
"""
let data = Data(str.utf8)
if let json = try? JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: data, options: []) {
if let information = json as? [String : Any] {
if let data = information["data"] as? [String : Any] {
if let rowsN = data["rows"] as? [[String : Any]] {
for datab in rowsN {
let dataA = datab ["dataA"] as? String ?? ""
let dataB = datab ["dataB"] as? String ?? ""
print(dataA)
print(dataB)
}
} else {
print("could not load rows")
}
} else {
print("could not load data")
}
} else {
print("could not load json as map")
}
} else {
print("could not load json as map")
}
I personally would use a Model class and use JSON Decoder in swift for this. The API you are using is the older Objective C based one.

I'm very new to Swift and have spent several hours just trying to pull the photo_url key out of a JSON response.
I'm using this for the reading the JSON:
let jsonDictionary = try JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: data, options: .mutableContainers)
Then:
if let eventsDictionary = jsonDictionary {
let upcomingEvents = UpcomingEvents(eventsDictionary: eventsDictionary)
completion(upcomingEvents)
} else {
completion(nil)
}
Here is my (failed) attempt to pull out the key:
init(eventsDictionary: [String : Any]) {
//photoUrl = eventsDictionary[EventKeys.photoUrl] as? String
let groups: NSArray = eventsDictionary["groups"] as! NSArray
let url: String = groups[0]
print("THIS IS YOUR RETURNED PHOTO URL--\(url)--END OF RETURNED PHOTO URL")
}
I changed "[String: Any]" to [String: AnyObject] and now i get this...
There are problems casting Any to NSArray. Just make your Init method taking [String:AnyObject]. But, better use Array instead of NSArray here
Try to get url use following code.
let firstObj = groups[0] as! [String: String] // use if let to unwrap is better
let url = firstObj["photo_url"]
To get "photo_url" from the json file in your photo,
it looks like this:
init(eventsDictionary: [String : Any]) {
if let groups = eventsDictionary["groups"] as? [NSDictionary]{
/*
// Get All URL
var urls : [String] = []
for group in groups{
if let url = group.value(forKey: "photo_url"){
urls.append(url)
}
}
*/
// Groups[0] url
let url: String = groups[0].value(forKey: "photo_url") as! String
print("THIS IS YOUR RETURNED PHOTO URL--\(url)--END OF RETURNED PHOTO URL")
}
}
You need to read json as `[String: Any].
if let eventsDictionary = json as? [String: Any] {
let upcomingEvents = UpcomingEvents(eventsDictionary: eventsDictionary)
completion(upcomingEvents)
}
Then, init your UpcomingEvents model like this
init(eventsDictionary: [String : Any]) {
let groups: NSArray = eventsDictionary["groups"] as! NSArray
let group1 = groups[0] as! NSDictionary
let photoURL = group1["photo_url"] as! String
print(photoURL)
}
I have a JSON parsing issue with my Swift code below. The error I am getting says that my JSON output does not contain a key value.
My code:
Alamofire.request(url, method: .get, headers: headers).responseJSON { (response) -> Void in
let jsonValue = response.result.value as! NSDictionary
if let bpArray = jsonValue["value"] as? [NSDictionary]{
for results in bpArray {...}
Issue:
This conversion doesnt work: if let bpArray = jsonValue["value"] as? [NSDictionary]
My JSON Structure:
{
d: {
results: [
{
__metadata: {},
Key: "AFBWhULFHtKU4j4FhWCmKg==",
ParentKey: "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA==",
RootKey: "AFBWhULFHtKU4j4FhWCmKg==",
Partner: "MM-CARR-01",
Type: "2",
Description: "MM Demo Carrier Created for Single Stop / MA",
FrieghtOrder: {}
},
...
Assuming you want to access the results key so try like this:-
if let bpArray = jsonValue["results"] as? [String: AnyObject]{
//yourcode
}
Well your json structure haven't got any key named as value and that's why it's giving an error.
In order to get results array, you first need to get the object in which they are nested and for example 'g' in your case:
if let data = jsonValue["d"] as? [NSDictionary]{
if let resultsArray = data["results"] as? NSArray {
//your code
}
}
Please Use Swifty Json Pod And Try this code
pod 'SwiftyJSON'
In Your file where you get response
import SwiftyJSON
Then After Use This Code
switch response.result {
case .success(let JSON2):
print("Success with JSON: \(JSON2)")
// print("Request failed with error: \(response.response?.statusCode)")
if let response = JSON2 as? NSMutableDictionary
{
}
else if let response = JSON2 as? NSDictionary
{
if let data = response?.object(forKey: "d") as? NSDictionary
{
if let resultsArray = data?.object(forKey: "results") as? NSArray
{
}
}
}
else if JSON2 is NSArray
{
let swjson = JSON(response.result.value!)
print(swjson)
// callback(swjson,nil)
var myMutableDictionary = [AnyHashable: Any]()
myMutableDictionary["myArray"] = swjson
callback(myMutableDictionary as NSDictionary?,nil)
print("accc")
}
else if ((JSON2 as? String) != nil)
{
let userDic : [String : String] = ["quatid":JSON2 as! String]
print(userDic)
}
break
case .failure(let error):
print("Request failed with error: \(error)")
}
Remember it's better we not use NSArray & NSDictionary like things in SWIFT, SWIFT it self providing let, var keyword for various data type.
First you can create your model where you can save the data.
MyModel.swift
class MyModel: NSObject {
var ParentKey : Int?
init(jsonObject:[String:Any]) {
ParentKey = jsonObject["ParentKey"] as? String ?? ""
}
}
Viewcontroller.Swift
var myModel : [MyModel] = []
if let responseData = response["d"] as? [String:Any]{
if let dataObject = responseData["results"] as? [[String:Any]]{
self.myModel = dataObject.map({return MyModel(jsonObject: $0)})//for assigning data into model
}
}
As most people said, I was wrong with "value". Hussain's answer to using [String:AnyObject] Helped.
I am not sure if the below is neat to achieve, but it did the magic. App loaded as expected. Code expert below:
Solution:
if let bpData = jsonValue["d"] as? [String: AnyObject]{
for results in bpData {
let arrayInterim = results.value as? NSArray
for i in 0 ..< arrayInterim!.count {
I am trying to parse JSON data from the Google Civic Information API with Swift 3 and keep running into trouble.
This is the code that I have now for my parseData function:
private func parseData(JSONData: Data) {
do {
var readableJSON = try JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: JSONData, options: JSONSerialization.ReadingOptions.mutableContainers) as! [String : Any]
if let officials: Any = readableJSON["officials"] as? [String : Any] {
for official in officials as? [String : Any] {
let name = official["name"] as? String
if let address = official["address"] as? [String : String] {
let line1 = address["line1"] as? String
let line2 = address["line2"] as? String
let line3 = address["line3"] as? String
let city = address["city"] as? String
let state = address["state"] as? String
let zipCode = address["zip"] as? String
}
let party = official["party"] as? String
let phones = official["phones"] as? [String: Any]
let urls = official["urls"] as? [String : Any]
let photoURL = official["photoUrl"] as? String
let emails = official["emails"] as? [String : Any]
if let channels = official["channels"] as? [String : Any] {
for j in 0..<channels.count {
let channel = channels[j] as? [String : Any]
let type = channel["type"] as String
let id = channel["type"] as String
}
}
}
}
}
catch { print(error) }
}
Thanks in advance for any help
if let officials: Any = readableJSON["officials"] as? [String : Any] {
for official in officials as? [String : Any] {
You are trying to loop over an object of type Any. Your casting properly on the right side, but then overriding it with a less specific type on the left. You can omit the left side type altogether, as Swift's type inference will know you are getting [String : Any]? from the right side.
I currently developing an app which list user object by making an request to a webservice, which send a response in JSON in this format :
{
"0":
{
"id":"30",
"title":"galaxys6",
"price":"550",
"description":"neuf",
"addedDate":"2015-07-16 15:04:24",
"user_id":"2",
"user_name":"",
"user_zipCode":"69003",
"category_id":"1",
"category_label":"PHONE",
"subcategory_id":"1",
"subcategory_label":"Phone",
"picture":"",
"bdd":{},
"picture_url":"http:\/\/jdl-barreme-orange.dyndns.org\/WEBSERVICE\/pictures\/galaxy s6.JPG"
},
"1":
{
"id":"31",
"title":"iphone4",
"price":"570",
"description":"neuf",
"addedDate":"2015-07-16 15:14:54",
"user_id":"2",
"user_name":"",
"user_zipCode":"69003",
"category_id":"1",
"category_label":"PHONE",
"subcategory_id":"1",
"subcategory_label":"Phone",
"picture":"",
"bdd":{},
"picture_url":"http:\/\/jdl-barreme-orange.dyndns.org\/WEBSERVICE\/pictures\/iphone.JPG"
},
}
For each object my webservice create a dictionary (0;1;2;3....)
I search a method to retrieve for each dictionary the value title and price and put them in a tableView.
Code I used (tableviewcontroller) :
if let jsonData:NSDictionary = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(urlData!, options:NSJSONReadingOptions.MutableContainers , error: &error) as? NSDictionary{
// 4
if let resp = jsonData["1"] as? [NSDictionary] {
NSLog("%#", resp)
// 5
for item in resp {
repositories.append(Repository(jsonData: item))
}
repository controller :
class Repository {
var name: String?
var description: String?
var html_url: String?
init(jsonData: NSDictionary) {
self.name = jsonData["id"] as? String
self.description = jsonData["description"] as? String
self.html_url = jsonData["title"] as? String
}
}
But it doesn't work, I put a breakpoint, and xcode stop to interpret here :
if let resp = jsonData["1"] as? [NSDictionary] {
NSLog("%#", resp)
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you.
Here's how to get the title and price for your JSON:
if let json = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(urlData!, options: nil, error: nil) as? [String:AnyObject] {
for (_, value) in json {
if let dict = value as? [String:AnyObject] {
if let title = dict["title"] as? String {
println(title)
}
if let price = dict["price"] as? String {
println(price)
}
}
}
}
This can also be used to init your Repository classes if you want:
class Repository {
var name: String?
var description: String?
var html_url: String?
init(jsonData: [String:AnyObject]) {
self.name = jsonData["id"] as? String
self.description = jsonData["description"] as? String
self.html_url = jsonData["title"] as? String
}
}
var repos = [Repository]()
if let json = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(urlData!, options: nil, error: nil) as? [String:AnyObject] {
for (_, value) in json {
if let dict = value as? [String:AnyObject] {
let repo = Repository(jsonData: dict)
repos.append(repo)
}
}
}
for repo in repos {
println(repo.name)
println(repo.description)
println(repo.html_url)
}
In the loop I'm ignoring the key: for (_, value) in json but you can use it if needed of course:
for (key, value) in json {
println(key) // "1", "2", ...
// ...
}
UPDATE:
Following your comment asking how to use this answer if your data format is different: if you want an array of dictionaries, change the typecast of the NSJSONSerialization result to reflect that: [[String:AnyObject]]. Next you can iterate over your array to get each dictionary properties:
if let jsonArray = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(urlData!, options: nil, error: nil) as? [[String:AnyObject]] {
for dict in jsonArray {
if let title = dict["title"] as? String {
println(title)
}
}
}
You are making a mistake here
if let resp = jsonData["1"] as? [NSDictionary]
This should be a NSDictionary not [NSDictionary], (which would be an array of dictionaries).
Also this conditional block
if let reposArray = jsonData["items"] as? [NSDictionary]
will never be executed because jsonData does not contain a key "items".
I guess it is the [NSDictionary]
if let resp = jsonData["1"] as? [NSDictionary]
[NSDictionary] is array of NSDictionary same as Array<NSDictionary>
just remove the brackets [] and change to
if let resp = jsonData["1"] as? NSDictionary
I'm trying to parse a json but I have some difficulties with the data types and notably the AnyObject type + downcasting.
Let's consider the following json (it's an extract of a full json).
{ "weather":
[
{
"id":804,
"main":"Clouds",
"description":"overcast clouds",
"icon":"04d"
}
],
}
To me, the json can be described as follow :
- json: Dictionary of type [String: AnyObject] (or NSDictionary, so = [NSObject, AnyObject] in Xcode 6 b3)
- "weather": Array of type [AnyObject] (or NSArray)
- Dictionary of type [String: AnyObject] (or NSDictionary, so = [NSObject, AnyObject] in Xcode 6 b3)
My json is of type AnyObject! (I use JSONObjectWithData to get the JSON from a URL).
I then want to access the weather Dictionary. Here is the code I wrote.
var localError: NSError?
var json: AnyObject! = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data, options: NSJSONReadingOptions.MutableContainers, error: &localError)
if let dict = json as? [String: AnyObject] {
if let weatherDictionary = dict["weather"] as? [AnyObject] {
// Do stuff with the weatherDictionary
}
}
Here is the error I got
Playground execution failed: error: <EXPR>:28:56: error: '[AnyObject]' is not a subtype of '(String, AnyObject)'
if let weatherDictionary = dict["weather"] as? [AnyObject] {
I don't understand why dict["weather"] is compared to a subtype of (String, AnyObject) and not AnyObject.
I declared my dictionary as [String: AnyObject], so I i access a value using the String key, I should have an AnyObject, no ?
If I use NSDictionary instead of [String: AnyObject], it works.
If I use NSArray instead of [AnyObject], it works.
- The Xcode 6 beta 3 release notes tell that "NSDictionary* is now imported from Objective-C APIs as [NSObject : AnyObject].".
- And the Swift book: "When you bridge from an NSArray object to a Swift array, the resulting array is of type [AnyObject]."
EDIT
I forgot to force unwrapping the dict["weather"]!.
if let dict = json as? [String: AnyObject] {
println(dict)
if let weatherDictionary = dict["weather"]! as? [AnyObject] {
println("\nWeather dictionary:\n\n\(weatherDictionary)")
if let descriptionString = weatherDictionary[0]["description"]! as? String {
println("\nDescription of the weather is: \(descriptionString)")
}
}
}
Note that we should double check for the existence of the first Optional.
if let dict = json as? [String: AnyObject] {
for key in ["weather", "traffic"] {
if let dictValue = dict[key] {
if let subArray = dictValue as? [AnyObject] {
println(subArray[0])
}
} else {
println("Key '\(key)' not found")
}
}
}
This works fine for me in the playground and in the terminal using env xcrun swift
UPDATED FOR SWIFT 4 AND CODABLE
Here is a Swift 4 example using the Codable protocol.
var jsonStr = "{\"weather\":[{\"id\":804,\"main\":\"Clouds\",\"description\":\"overcast clouds\",\"icon\":\"04d\"}],}"
struct Weather: Codable {
let id: Int
let main: String
let description: String
let icon: String
}
struct Result: Codable {
let weather: [Weather]
}
do {
let weather = try JSONDecoder().decode(Result.self, from: jsonStr.data(using: .utf8)!)
print(weather)
}
catch {
print(error)
}
UPDATED FOR SWIFT 3.0
I have updated the code for Swift 3 and also showed how to wrap the parsed JSON into objects. Thanks for all the up votes!
import Foundation
struct Weather {
let id: Int
let main: String
let description: String
let icon: String
}
extension Weather {
init?(json: [String: Any]) {
guard
let id = json["id"] as? Int,
let main = json["main"] as? String,
let description = json["description"] as? String,
let icon = json["icon"] as? String
else { return nil }
self.id = id
self.main = main
self.description = description
self.icon = icon
}
}
var jsonStr = "{\"weather\":[{\"id\":804,\"main\":\"Clouds\",\"description\":\"overcast clouds\",\"icon\":\"04d\"}],}"
enum JSONParseError: Error {
case notADictionary
case missingWeatherObjects
}
var data = jsonStr.data(using: String.Encoding.ascii, allowLossyConversion: false)
do {
var json = try JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: data!, options: [])
guard let dict = json as? [String: Any] else { throw JSONParseError.notADictionary }
guard let weatherJSON = dict["weather"] as? [[String: Any]] else { throw JSONParseError.missingWeatherObjects }
let weather = weatherJSON.flatMap(Weather.init)
print(weather)
}
catch {
print(error)
}
-- Previous Answer --
import Foundation
var jsonStr = "{\"weather\":[{\"id\":804,\"main\":\"Clouds\",\"description\":\"overcast clouds\",\"icon\":\"04d\"}],}"
var data = jsonStr.dataUsingEncoding(NSASCIIStringEncoding, allowLossyConversion: false)
var localError: NSError?
var json: AnyObject! = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data!, options: NSJSONReadingOptions.MutableContainers, error: &localError)
if let dict = json as? [String: AnyObject] {
if let weather = dict["weather"] as? [AnyObject] {
for dict2 in weather {
let id = dict2["id"]
let main = dict2["main"]
let description = dict2["description"]
println(id)
println(main)
println(description)
}
}
}
Since I'm still getting up-votes for this answer, I figured I would revisit it for Swift 2.0:
import Foundation
var jsonStr = "{\"weather\":[{\"id\":804,\"main\":\"Clouds\",\"description\":\"overcast clouds\",\"icon\":\"04d\"}],}"
var data = jsonStr.dataUsingEncoding(NSASCIIStringEncoding, allowLossyConversion: false)
do {
var json = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data!, options: NSJSONReadingOptions.MutableContainers)
if let dict = json as? [String: AnyObject] {
if let weather = dict["weather"] as? [AnyObject] {
for dict2 in weather {
let id = dict2["id"] as? Int
let main = dict2["main"] as? String
let description = dict2["description"] as? String
print(id)
print(main)
print(description)
}
}
}
}
catch {
print(error)
}
The biggest difference is that the variable json is no longer an optional type and the do/try/catch syntax. I also went ahead and typed id, main, and description.
Try:
https://github.com/dankogai/swift-json
With it you can go like this:
let obj:[String:AnyObject] = [
"array": [JSON.null, false, 0, "", [], [:]],
"object":[
"null": JSON.null,
"bool": true,
"int": 42,
"double": 3.141592653589793,
"string": "a α\t弾\n𪚲",
"array": [],
"object": [:]
],
"url":"http://blog.livedoor.com/dankogai/"
]
let json = JSON(obj)
json.toString()
json["object"]["null"].asNull // NSNull()
json["object"]["bool"].asBool // true
json["object"]["int"].asInt // 42
json["object"]["double"].asDouble // 3.141592653589793
json["object"]["string"].asString // "a α\t弾\n𪚲"
json["array"][0].asNull // NSNull()
json["array"][1].asBool // false
json["array"][2].asInt // 0
json["array"][3].asString // ""
Using my library (https://github.com/isair/JSONHelper) you can do this with your json variable of type AnyObject:
var weathers = [Weather]() // If deserialization fails, JSONHelper just keeps the old value in a non-optional variable. This lets you assign default values like this.
if let jsonDictionary = json as? JSONDictionary { // JSONDictionary is an alias for [String: AnyObject]
weathers <-- jsonDictionary["weather"]
}
Had your array not been under the key "weather", your code would have been just this:
var weathers = [Weather]()
weathers <-- json
Or if you have a json string in your hands you can just pass it as well, instead of creating a JSON dictionary from the string first. The only setup you need to do is writing a Weather class or struct:
struct Weather: Deserializable {
var id: String?
var name: String?
var description: String?
var icon: String?
init(data: [String: AnyObject]) {
id <-- data["id"]
name <-- data["name"]
description <-- data["description"]
icon <-- data["icon"]
}
}
