About swift Parsing JSON - json

I have a question.I'm trying to parse JSON.However,I got a error. It's called "Cannot call value of non-function type '[Movie]' " in this line "completionHandler(modelList)" Can you help me please?
This my class;
class Movie {
var type : String?
var title: String?
var thumbnail: String?
var id: String?
init(Dictionary : [String:AnyObject]){
self.title = Dictionary["Title"] as? String
self.id = Dictionary["Id"] as? String
self.type = Dictionary["Type"] as? String
}
static func fetchData(completionHandler: ([Movie])) -> () {
let urlString = "http://tcm-api.azurewebsites.net/api/movie/search?term='Batman'&page=1"
NSURLSession.sharedSession().dataTaskWithURL(NSURL(string: urlString)!) { (data, response, error) -> Void in
if error != nil {
print(error)
return
}
do {
var modelList = [Movie]()
let json = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data!, options: .MutableContainers)
for resultDictionary in json["Data"]!!["Results"] as! [[String : AnyObject]] {
let model = Movie(Dictionary: resultDictionary)
modelList.append(model)
}
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue()) {
completionHandler(modelList)
}
} catch {
print(error)
}
}.resume()
}
}

If you look closely at your function declaration:
func fetchData(completionHandler:([Movie]))->() {
which is equal to:
func fetchData(completionHandler: [Movie]) {
What you want is this:
func fetchData(completionHandler: [Movie] -> Void) {

Swift JSON with dynamic Keys

I am trying to parse JSON using Swift, which has dynamic keys. Tried several ways but still did not find the solution. Could you please help me ?
I am trying to parse NativeName, which is dynamic based on which language country name is present.
API: https://restcountries.com/v3.1/all
struct Objects: Codable {
let name: Name
let cca2 : String
let flag: String
}
struct Name: Codable {
let common, official: String
let nativeName: NativeName
}
struct NativeName: Codable {
var deu : Deu
}
struct Deu: Codable {
let official, common: String?
}
and here is JSON Model:
class ParsingService {
static let shared = ParsingService()
func fetchData() {
guard let url = URL(string: "https://restcountries.com/v3.1/all") else {
print("DEBUG: URL is nill")
return}
let session = URLSession.shared
let task = session.dataTask(with: url) { data, _, error in
guard let retrievedData = data, error == nil else {
print("DEBUG: Data is not available")
return}
print("DEBUG: Data is available \(retrievedData)")
guard let decodedData = self.JSONParsing(inputData: retrievedData) else {
print("DEBUG: Missing data")
return}
print("DEBUG: Data is there")
print("DEBUG: \(decodedData[0].cca2)")
print("DEBUG: \(decodedData[0].flag)")
print("DEBUG: \(decodedData[0].name.nativeName.deu.official)")
DispatchQueue.main.async {
print(decodedData.currencies)
}
}
task.resume()
}
func JSONParsing(inputData: Data)-> [Objects]? {
let decoder = JSONDecoder()
do {
let data = try? decoder.decode([Objects].self, from: inputData)
return data
} catch {
print("DEBUG: Cannot get data")
return nil
}
}
}
you could try this approach:
struct ContentView: View {
var body: some View {
Text("testing")
.onAppear {
fetchData() { results in
print("---> results: \(results.count) \n")
for i in 0..<3 {
print("---> results[\(i)]: \(results[i].name.nativeName)")
}
}
}
}
// todo deal with errors
func fetchData(completion: #escaping ([Objects]) -> Void) {
let url = URL(string: "https://restcountries.com/v3.1/all")
guard let url = url else { completion([]); return }
URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: url) { (data, response, error) in
guard let data = data else { completion([]); return }
do {
let results = try JSONDecoder().decode([Objects].self, from: data)
completion(results)
}
catch {
print("Error: \(error)")
completion([])
}
}.resume()
}
}
struct Objects: Codable {
let name: Name
let cca2 : String
let flag: String
}
struct Deu: Codable {
let official, common: String?
}
struct Name: Codable {
let common, official: String
let nativeName: NativeName? // <-- here
}
// -- here
struct NativeName: Codable {
var lang: [String: Deu]
init(from decoder: Decoder) throws {
let container = try decoder.singleValueContainer()
lang = try container.decode([String: Deu].self)
}
func encode(to encoder: Encoder) throws {
// todo
}
}
Note, you could also use a Tuple, such as var lang: (key: String, value: Deu)

How to get json fields?

I follow a lesson from one course
And I need to get json, but i want get another json than in a lesson.
So this is my json:
https://api.scryfall.com/cards/search?q=half
And code:
struct Card {
var cardId: String
var name: String
var imageUrl: String
var text: String
init?(dict: [String: AnyObject]){
guard let name = dict["name"] as? String,
let cardId = dict["cardId"] as? String,
let imageUrl = dict["imageUrl"] as? String,
let text = dict["text"] as? String else { return nil }
self.cardId = cardId
self.name = name
self.imageUrl = imageUrl
self.text = text
}
}
class CardNetworkService{
private init() {}
static func getCards(url: String, completion: #escaping(GetCardResponse) -> ()) {
guard let url = URL(string: url) else { return }
NetworkService.shared.getData(url: url) { (json) in
do {
print ("ok1")
let response = try GetCardResponse(json: json)
print ("ok2")
completion(response)
} catch {
print(error)
}
}
}
}
class NetworkService {
private init() {}
static let shared = NetworkService()
func getData(url: URL, completion: #escaping (Any) -> ()) {
let session = URLSession.shared
session.dataTask(with: url) { (data, response, error) in
guard let data = data else { return }
do {
let json = try JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: data, options: [])
DispatchQueue.main.async {
completion(json)
}
print(json)
} catch {
print(error)
}
}.resume()
}
}
struct GetCardResponse{
let cards: [Card]
init(json: Any) throws {
guard let array = json as? [[String: AnyObject]] else { throw NetworkError.failInternetError }
var cards = [Card]()
for dictionary in array {
guard let card = Card(dict: dictionary) else { continue }
cards.append(card)
}
self.cards = cards
}
}
Problem in struct GetCardResponse and [[String: AnyObject]] because I dont know how to parse this type of json. I tried to change them in the likeness of json. But I dont really understand how it works and in which part of code i need to put json["data"] or something like this... Help pls. I just want get json fields tcgplayer_id, name, art_crop
As of your code, you can parse the required details as:
struct Card {
var cardId: String = ""
var name: String = ""
var imageUrl: String = ""
var text: String = ""
init(dict: [String: Any]) {
if let obj = dict["name"] {
self.name = "\(obj)"
}
if let obj = dict["tcgplayer_id"] {
self.cardId = "\(obj)"
}
if let obj = dict["image_uris"] as? [String:Any], let url = obj["art_crop"] {
self.imageUrl = "\(url)"
}
if let obj = dict["oracle_text"] {
self.text = "\(obj)"
}
}
static func models(array: [[String:Any]]) -> [Card] {
return array.map { Card(dict: $0) }
}
}
class CardNetworkService{
private init() {}
static func getCards(url: String, completion: #escaping([Card]?) -> ()) {
guard let url = URL(string: url) else { return }
NetworkService.shared.getData(url: url) { (json) in
print ("ok1")
if let jData = json as? [String:Any], let data = jData["data"] as? [[String:Any]] {
let response = Card.models(array: data)
completion(response)
}
completion(nil)
}
}
}
class NetworkService {
private init() {}
static let shared = NetworkService()
func getData(url: URL, completion: #escaping (Any) -> ()) {
let session = URLSession.shared
session.dataTask(with: url) { (data, response, error) in
guard let data = data else { return }
do {
let json = try JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: data, options: [])
DispatchQueue.main.async {
completion(json)
}
} catch {
print(error)
}
}.resume()
}
}
CardNetworkService.getCards(url: "https://api.scryfall.com/cards/search?q=half") { (res) in
print(res ?? [])
}
Just paste this code in playground and it'll work.
Happy Coding :)
You are wrong get entry of data field.
First you need get data field in json. And parse to deeper.
Try use the code.
struct GetCardResponse{
let cards: [Card]
init(json: Any) throws {
guard let jsonObject = json as? [String: Any], let data = jsonObject["data"] as? [[String:AnyObject]] else { throw NetworkError.failInternetError }
var cards = [Card]()
for dictionary in data {
guard let card = Card(dict: dictionary) else { continue }
cards.append(card)
}
self.cards = cards
}
}
UPDATE:
init function in Card has something wrong. In your json cardId is not found
Card class maybe like this because cardId, imageUrl, text maybe not found. It is optional
struct Card {
var cardId: String?
var name: String
var imageUrl: String?
var text: String?
init?(dict: [String: AnyObject]){
guard let name = dict["name"] as? String else { return nil }
self.cardId = dict["cardId"] as? String
self.name = name
self.imageUrl = dict["imageUrl"] as? String
self.text = dict["text"] as? String
}
}
Try using Codable to parse the JSON data like so,
Create the models like,
struct Root: Decodable {
let cards: [Card]
enum CodingKeys: String, CodingKey {
case cards = "data"
}
}
struct Card: Decodable {
let tcgplayerId: Int
let name: String
let artCrop: String
}
Now parse your JSON data using,
if let data = data {
do {
let decoder = JSONDecoder()
decoder.keyDecodingStrategy = .convertFromSnakeCase
let response = try JSONDecoder().decode(Root.self, from: data)
print(response)
} catch {
print(error)
}
}
You can access the properties in cards of response like so,
response.cards.first?.tcgplayerId

Parsing JSON with Swift 4 Decodable

I have been getting the following error every time I try to parse JSON in my program. I can't seem to figure it out.
"Expected to decode String but found an array instead.", underlyingError: nil
Here is the code I have been struggling with:
struct Book: Decodable {
let id: Int
let title: String
let chapters: Int
var pages: [Page]?
}
struct Page: Decodable {
let id: Int
let text: [String]
}
struct Chapter: Decodable {
var chapterNumber: Int
}
func fetchJSON() {
let urlString = "https://api.myjson.com/bins/kzqh3"
guard let url = URL(string: urlString) else { return }
URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: url) { (data, _, err) in
if let err = err {
print("Failed to fetch data from", err)
return
}
guard let data = data else { return }
do {
let decoder = JSONDecoder()
let books = try decoder.decode([Book].self, from: data)
books.forEach({print($0.title)})
} catch let jsonErr {
print("Failed to parse json:", jsonErr)
}
}.resume()
}
Are you sure that's the real error message?
Actually the error is supposed to be
"Expected to decode String but found a dictionary instead."
The value for key text is not an array of strings, it's an array of dictionaries
struct Page: Decodable {
let id: Int
let text: [[String:String]]
}
The struct Chapter is not needed.
Alternatively write a custom initializer and decode the dictionaries containing the chapter number as key and the text as value into an array of Chapter
struct Book: Decodable {
let id: Int
let title: String
let chapters: Int
let pages: [Page]
}
struct Page: Decodable {
let id: Int
var chapters = [Chapter]()
private enum CodingKeys : String, CodingKey { case id, chapters = "text" }
init(from decoder: Decoder) throws {
let container = try decoder.container(keyedBy: CodingKeys.self)
id = try container.decode(Int.self, forKey: .id)
var arrayContainer = try container.nestedUnkeyedContainer(forKey: .chapters)
while !arrayContainer.isAtEnd {
let chapterDict = try arrayContainer.decode([String:String].self)
for (key, value) in chapterDict {
chapters.append(Chapter(number: Int(key)!, text: value))
}
}
}
}
struct Chapter: Decodable {
let number : Int
let text : String
}
This is working:
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
private var books = [Book]()
struct Book: Decodable {
let id: Int
let title: String
let chapters: Int
var pages: [Page]
}
struct Page: Decodable {
let id: Int
let text: [[String:String]]
}
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
fetchJSON()
}
func fetchJSON() {
let urlString = "https://api.myjson.com/bins/kzqh3"
guard let url = URL(string: urlString) else { return }
URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: url) { data, response, error in
if error != nil {
print(error!.localizedDescription)
return
}
guard let data = data else { return }
do {
let decoder = JSONDecoder()
self.books = try decoder.decode([Book].self, from: data)
DispatchQueue.main.async {
for info in self.books {
print(info.title)
print(info.chapters)
print(info.pages[0].id)
print(info.pages[0].text)
print("-------------------")
}
}
} catch let jsonErr {
print("something wrong after downloaded: \(jsonErr) ")
}
}.resume()
}
}
// print
//Genesis
//50
//1
//[["1": "In the beg...]]
//-------------------
//Exodus
//40
//2
//[["1": "In the beginning God created...]]
//
If you need to print the value of each chapter in the book, I can use something like this:
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
private var books = [Book]()
struct Book: Decodable {
let id: Int
let title: String
let chapters: Int
var pages: [Page]
}
struct Page: Decodable {
let id: Int
let text: [[String:String]]
}
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
fetchJSON()
}
func fetchJSON() {
let urlString = "https://api.myjson.com/bins/kzqh3"
guard let url = URL(string: urlString) else { return }
URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: url) { data, response, error in
if error != nil {
print(error!.localizedDescription)
return
}
guard let data = data else { return }
do {
let decoder = JSONDecoder()
self.books = try decoder.decode([Book].self, from: data)
DispatchQueue.main.async {
for info in self.books {
print(info.title)
print(info.chapters)
print(info.pages[0].id)
//print(info.pages[0].text)
for cc in info.pages[0].text {
for (key, value) in cc {
print("\(key) : \(value)")
}
}
print("-------------------")
}
}
} catch let jsonErr {
print("something wrong after downloaded: \(jsonErr) ")
}
}.resume()
}
}
//Genesis
//50
//1
//1 : In the beginning God ...
//2 : But the earth became waste...
//.
//.
//.
//31 : And God saw everything...
//-------------------
//Exodus
//40
//2
//1 : In the beginning God...
//2 : But the earth became...
//.
//.
//.

Parsing JSON array without for statement

I want to find a solution for parsing JSON array. there is my code for parsing JSON but I want a solution without for statement I can parse array.
code for parsing:
func parsigJsonData(resultArray:any?){
if let resultArray = resultDic["trucks"] as? BaseModelData {
print(resultArray)
}
}
class BaseModel {
public typealias BaseModelData = (id:String?,title:String?,select:Bool)
var id : String?
var title : String?
var select : Bool = false
init(json: [String:Any]) {
self.id = json["id"] as? String
self.title = json["title"] as? String
self.select = false
}
}
extension BaseModel {
var tableRepresentation: [BaseModelData] {
return [(id:id,title:title,select:select)]
}
}
result array contains list of baseModel object. I try this code for parsing but that's not working and casting to BaseModelData unsuccessful.
if there is a solution for parsing JSON array without for statement?
Thank you for the solutions.
there is my json response sample:
{"trucks":[{"id":"1","title":"\u062e\u0627\u0648\u0631 \u062a\u0627 5 \u062a\u0646 \u0627\u062a\u0627\u0642 \u0686\u0648\u0628\u06cc"},{"id":"2","title":"\u062e\u0627\u0648\u0631 \u062a\u0627 5 \u062a\u0646 \u06a9\u0645\u067e\u0631\u0633\u06cc"},{"id":"3","title":"\u062e\u0627\u0648\u0631 \u062a\u0627 8 \u062a\u0646 \u0627\u062a\u0627\u0642 \u0686\u0648\u0628\u06cc"},{"id":"4","title":"\u062e\u0627\u0648\u0631 \u062a\u0627 8 \u062a\u0646 \u06a9\u0645\u067e\u0631\u0633\u06cc"},{"id":"5","title":"\u062e\u0627\u0648\u0631 \u06cc\u062e\u0686\u0627\u0644 \u062f\u0627\u0631"}]
Swift 4 allows you to make it very simple. Just add Decodable protocol,
struct BaseModel: Codable {
var id : String?
var title : String?
var select : Bool = false
}
And use this to retrieve data:
func makeRequest(completionHandler: #escaping ([BaseModel]?, Error?) -> Void) {
var urlRequest = URLRequest(url: url)
request.httpMethod = "GET"
let task = URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: request as URLRequest){
(data, response, error) in
guard let responseData = data else {
print("Error: did not receive data")
completionHandler(nil, error)
return
}
guard error == nil else {
completionHandler(nil, error)
return
}
let decoder = JSONDecoder()
do {
let dataObject = try decoder.decode([BaseModel].self, from: responseData)
completionHandler(dataObject, nil)
} catch {
print("error trying to convert data to JSON")
print(error)
completionHandler(nil, error)
}
}
task.resume()
}

Alamofire type of expression is ambiguous without more context

I know theres multiple questions with the same topic, though the difference between my question and those seem to be defining parameters. Whats even odder is the code would build and install on my iPhone until yesterday.
This is where Xcode complains
private class func getLocItemsAtPath(path: String!, completionHandler: (LocItemsWrapper?, NSError?) -> Void) {
Alamofire.request(.GET, path!)
.responseLocItemsArray { response in
if let error = response.result.error
{
completionHandler(nil, error)
return
}
completionHandler(response.result.value, nil)
}
}
Here is the entire class
import Foundation
import Alamofire
import SwiftyJSON
enum LocItemFields: String {
case Name = "name"
case LocationBackground = "locationBackground"
case Logo = "logo"
case Status = "status"
case Company = "company"
case Id = "id"
case Url = "url"
}
class LocItemsWrapper {
var locItems: Array<LocItems>?
var count: Int?
private var next: String?
private var previous: String?
}

return .Success(wrapper)
case .Failure(let error):
return .Failure(error)
}
}
return response(responseSerializer: responseSerializer,
completionHandler: completionHandler)
}
}
Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thank you.
EDIT: I got rid of the error by changing LocItemsWrapper? to LocItemsWrapper! but now I have an error saying ambiguous use of .responseLocItemsArray...
Xcode is trying to tell you that it can't figure out which .responseLocItemsArray to use, check all your other classes to see if you used it anywhere else.
