how to parse a JSON with Array of Dictionaries iOS swift
I am having a JSON array which looks like this:
func fetchProfessionalData() {
guard let url = URL(string:"urlString") else { return }
let parameters = ["Address":""] as [String : Any]
Alamofire.request(url, method: .post, parameters:parameters,encoding: JSONEncoding.default, headers: nil).responseJSON {
response in
switch response.result {
case .success:
let jsonData = response.result.value as! NSArray
print("response:\(jsonData)")
}
self.listTableView.reloadData()
break
case .failure(let error):
print(error)
}
}
}
this is the output I'm getting when I print it:
response: [

]
Now I am having a tableViewCell where I have to show "userName", "profilePic","rating","email" and "serviceName" under "lstServiceProviders".So far I am able to show name,image,email,rating but "lstServiceProviders" is another array of dictionaries. I want to show all the services provided by that serviceProvider in cell.
lets say in json 1st dict the "userName":"jhonsmith" is having "lstServicePrpviders" with an array of two dictionaries with "serviceName": "BeautyCare" in 1st Dict and "serviceName":"Carpentry" in 2nd Dict. I want to show both BeautyCare and Carpentry in one cell. how to do this.
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let listCell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "listCell", for: indexPath) as! ListTableViewCell
let string = "imageBaseUrl\(models![indexPath.row].profilePic!)"
let escapedAddress = string.addingPercentEncoding(
withAllowedCharacters: CharacterSet.urlQueryAllowed)
listCell.listCellImage.image = UIImage(url: URL(string: escapedAddress!))
listCell.listCellNamesLabel.text = models![indexPath.row].userName!
let rating = models![indexPath.row].rating!
listCell.listCellRating.text = "(\(rating)/5 & 5 Comments)"
listCell.listCellStarRating.text = ratingArray[indexPath.row]
for i in 0..< models![indexPath.row].lstServiceProviders!.count {
listCell.listCellServicesLbl.text =
models![indexPath.row].lstServiceProviders[i].serviceName
}
return listCell
}

[Swift 4] You can use models with Codable to easily manage your tableviewcell.
See the Code below and run in a playground, you will understand that i have created model objects which is easy to loop and manage:
var json = """

guard let data = data else { return }
do {
let decoder = JSONDecoder()
let models = try decoder.decode([RootModel].self, from: data)
} catch let err {

If the response is Json object like your output, use the below:
func fetchProfessionalData() {
guard let url = URL(string:"urlString") else { return }
let parameters = ["Address":""] as [String : Any]
Alamofire.request(url, method: .post, parameters:parameters,encoding: JSONEncoding.default, headers: nil).responseJSON {
response in
switch response.result {
case .success:
// let jsonData = response.result.value as! NSArray
let jsonData = try JSONSerialization.data(withJSONObject: response.result, options: .prettyPrinted)
models = try JSONDecoder().decode([RootModel].self, from: jsonData)
print("response:\(jsonData)")
}
// self.listTableView.reloadData()
break
case .failure(let error):
print(error)
}
}
}
In your viewController, Declare varibale
var models: [RootModel]? {
didSet {
self.listTableView.reloadData()
}
}
In your tableview delegate method
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return models.count ?? 0
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
// Update your cell using models
// cell.text = models[indexPath.row].userName
}
[Edit 2] Add all string and then show the value.
var stringArray:[String] = []
for i in 0..< models![indexPath.row].lstServiceProviders!.count {
stringArray.append( models![indexPath.row].lstServiceProviders[i].serviceName)
}
listCell.listCellServicesLbl.text = stringArray.joined(separator: ", ")
