UISearchBar and JSON Data - json

Question

This is my first time using a UISearchBar and it is proving to confuse me.
I think my biggest problem here is not understanding how JSON is stored and displayed.
I have my JSON data stored as:
[{
"referralId" : "v-1519014616",
"name" : "Empire State Building",
"storeId" : "",
"hereNow" : {
"count" : 2,
"summary" : "2 people are here",
"groups" : [
{
"count" : 2,
"type" : "others",
"name" : "Other people here",
"items" : [
]
}
]
},
"stats" : {
"tipCount" : 1105,
"checkinsCount" : 185916,
"usersCount" : 129661
},
"venueRatingBlacklisted" : true,
"beenHere" : {
"lastCheckinExpiredAt" : 0
},
"specials" : {
"count" : 0,
"items" : [
]
},
"venuePage" : {
"id" : "64514349"
},
"verified" : true,
"location" : {
"state" : "NY",
"neighborhood" : "Midtown Manhattan, New York, NY",
"crossStreet" : "btwn 33rd & 34th St",
"lat" : 40.748469532965927,
"address" : "350 5th Ave",
"cc" : "US",
"city" : "New York",
"postalCode" : "10118",
"formattedAddress" : [
"350 5th Ave (btwn 33rd & 34th St)",
"New York, NY 10118"
],
"lng" : -73.985513794430119,
"distance" : 17,
"country" : "United States"
},
"hasPerk" : false,
"id" : "43695300f964a5208c291fe3",
"categories" : [
{
... etc
},
I have this stored in an array titled locations and I am trying to filter through it with a search bar.
func searchBar(_ searchBar: UISearchBar, textDidChange searchText: String) {
let name = self.locations[0]["name"].string
filteredLocations = locations.filter { names in
return (name!.lowercased().contains(searchText.lowercased()))
}
tableView.reloadData()
}
Now, obviously, name is only going to search for the item in the array. How would I be able to filter through every location's name key to properly filter?

Answer 1

try this one ... don't take name first from location array...
let filterArr = locations.filter {
return (($0["name"] as! String).lowercased().contains(searchText.lowercased())))
}
use this one to get the search result
