Alamofire 3 Custom Encoding To Alamofire 4 Custom Encoding

Question

I have method writing in Alamofire 3 with customParameterEncoding. This custom encoding just replaces \"[]=\" with \"=\" in queryString and returns it.

Alamofire

Just separating structs for GET and POST also works.

Alamofire 4 with Swift 3

// Remove square brackets for GET request
struct CustomGetEncoding: ParameterEncoding {
    func encode(_ urlRequest: URLRequestConvertible, with parameters: Parameters?) throws -> URLRequest {
        var request = try URLEncoding().encode(urlRequest, with: parameters)
        request.url = URL(string: request.url!.absoluteString.replacingOccurrences(of: "%5B%5D=", with: "="))
        return request
    }
}

// Remove square brackets for POST request
struct CustomPostEncoding: ParameterEncoding {
    func encode(_ urlRequest: URLRequestConvertible, with parameters: Parameters?) throws -> URLRequest {
        var request = try URLEncoding().encode(urlRequest, with: parameters)
        let httpBody = NSString(data: request.httpBody!, encoding: String.Encoding.utf8.rawValue)!
        request.httpBody = httpBody.replacingOccurrences(of: "%5B%5D=", with: "=").data(using: .utf8)
        return request
    }
}

// Use structs for requests 
Alamofire.request("http://example.com", method: .get, parameters: ["foo": ["bar1", "bar2"]], encoding: CustomGetEncoding())
Alamofire.request("http://example.com", method: .post, parameters: ["foo": ["bar1", "bar2"]], encoding: CustomPostEncoding())
