iOS programming, fetching JSON data -

-

i have added project swiftyjson.swift file , trying data web. project runs until line trying array json in dictionary. cannot understand problem is, guessing has stupid in beginning learning swift.

i trying print in console name of movies url , after manage achieve performance, try summary of movie , put them in tableview.

import uikit  class firstviewcontroller: uiviewcontroller {      override func viewdidload() {         super.viewdidload()          //grab status code , check if transfer successful == 200         let requesturl: nsurl = nsurl(string: "https://itunes.apple.com/us/rss/topmovies/limit=50/json")!         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) {                  //sort through stations key , cast data array of dictionaries                 do{                     let json = try nsjsonserialization.jsonobjectwithdata(data!, options:.allowfragments)                     print("bbbbb")  // here on, doesn't print anymore                     if let movies = json["entry"] as? [[string: anyobject]] {                         print(movies)                         print("test")                          movie in movies {                              if let name = movie["name"] as? string {                                 print("mmmm")                                 print("%@ (built %@)",name)                              }                         }                      }                  }catch {                     print("error json: \(error)")                 }             }         }     task.resume()

entry json array, use .array

if let movies = json["entry"].array {   movie in movies {      // stuff   } }

also general tip. not cast values e.g. 

movie["something"] as? string

rather use built in features:

movie["something"].string

update

looking closer on code see acctually not using swiftyjson.swift @ all. use swifty parse json text , json object:

let jsonobj = json(data: yourdata) // data nsdata

please have @ documentation:

https://github.com/swiftyjson/swiftyjson

i think reading section "why typical json handling in swift not good?". section explains native , "bad" way of managing json in swift, real documentation further down.

i'm trying rather simple example of trying decode json file structs using golang. however, when attempting error that json: cannot unmarshal object go value of type []main.track which don't understand. here's code in question, , json can found here . package main import ( "encoding/json" "fmt" "net/http" "os" ) // tracks group of track types type tracks struct { tracks []track } // track represents singular track type track struct { name string url string artist artist } // artist represents single artist type artist struct { name string mbid string url string } func main() { url := "http://ws.audioscrobbler.com/2.0/?method=geo.gettoptracks&api_key=c1572082105bd40d247836b5c1819623&format=json&country=netherlands" response, err := http.get(url) if err != nil { fmt.printf("%s\n", err) os.exit(1) } de...
