How to convert JSON into [WeatherModel] in Swift/SwiftyJSON? - json

Question

I was trying to make a weather app. And having a problem using SwiftyJSON.
I need to assign [WeatherModel] to my JSON data.
Basically, I need to set json variable to weatherData. The code is below.
Here is my controller:
var weatherData = [WeatherModel]()
func getJSONData(completed: #escaping () -> ()) {
if let filepath = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "weather", ofType: "json") {
do{
let data = try Data(contentsOf: URL(fileURLWithPath: filepath), options: .alwaysMapped)
let json = JSON(data: data)
// And here I need to set json to weatherData
} catch let error{
print(error.localizedDescription)
}
DispatchQueue.main.async {
completed()
}
} else {
print("file not found")
}
}
Here is my WeatherModel struct:
struct WeatherModel {
let cod: String
let message: Double
let cnt: Int
let list: [List]
let city: City
}
Note: I really need this to be made using only SwiftJSON. Any help will be appreciated :]

Answer 1

Well, we don't know what your JSON looks like.
To provide a sample, if this is what your JSON looked like:
{
"data": [
{
"cod": "some string here",
"message": 2.0,
"cnt": 1
...
}
]
}
... you would decode it as follows:
for (_, dict) in json["data"] {
guard let cod = dict["cod"].string else { continue }
guard let message = dict["message"].double else { continue }
guard let cnt = dict["cnt"].int else { continue }
// ...
let weather = WeatherModel(cod: cod, message: message, cnt: cnt, ...)
weatherData.append(weather)
}
You would have to modify this to work with your json format and the exact requirements.

Try this, i am not sure about your json structure correctly.
struct WeatherModel:Codable {
let cod: String
let message: Double
let cnt: Int
let list: [List]
let city: City
enum CodingKeys: String, CodingKey
{
case title = "name"
case url = "message"
case cnt
case list
case city
}
}
struct City:Codable {
let name
}
struct List:Codable {
//define your list data as in json
}
after this decode your json data.
if let wheatherData = try? JSONDecoder().decode(WeatherModel.self, from: data) {
// here Is your json model weatherData
}
