I am working on a weather app that parses JSON data and sets the text of my label to the temp value of the JSON request. I got the value of id from the weather object array, but the temp is not in an array it is just an object. Can someone please tell me where I am wrong. My value is reurning nil because I am not fetching it correctly. Here is my snippet and JSON.
@IBAction func getWeather(sender: AnyObject) {
let requestURL: NSURL = NSURL(string: "http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?lat=35&lon=139&appid=MYAPPID")!
let urlRequest: NSMutableURLRequest = NSMutableURLRequest(URL: requestURL)
let session = NSURLSession.sharedSession()
let task = session.dataTaskWithRequest(urlRequest) {
(data, response, error) -> Void in
let httpResponse = response as! NSHTTPURLResponse
let statusCode = httpResponse.statusCode
if (statusCode == 200) {
print("JSON Downloaded Sucessfully.")
do{
let json = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data!, options:.AllowFragments)
if let today = json["weather"] as? [[String: AnyObject]] {
//this is pulling 4 key value pairs
for weather in today {
//this works
let id = weather["id"]?.stringValue
self.trumpDescription.text=id;
print(id)
//this is where I am confused it changes from an array to just an object
let temp = json["temp"] as? String
self.currentTempView.text=temp;
print(temp)
}
}
}
catch {
print("Error with Json: \(error)")
}
}
}
task.resume()
}`
Here is the JSON:
{
"coord": {
"lon": 138.93,
"lat": 34.97
},
"weather": [

"id": 803,
"main": "Clouds",

It looks like it should be
if let main = json["main"] as? NSDictionary {
let temp = main["temp"] as! String
print(temp)
}

Instead of this:
let temp = json["temp"] as? String
Try this:
if let main = json["main"] as? [String: AnyObject] {
let temp = main[temp]?.stringValue
print(temp)
//alternatively you can try this as per your convenience of data type
let tempNew = main[temp]?.doubleValue
print(tempNew)
}
