Swift 4 Codable Array's

Question

So I have an API route that returns a JSON array of objects. For example:

[
    {\"firstname\": \"Tom\", \"lastname\": \"Smith\", \"age\": 31},
    {\"firstname\         


        

Answer 1

to decode to array, you've your response in a type alias for clarity:

typealias ServiceResponseObject = [ResponseObject]

but then you'll have to confirm Array to codable:

extension Array: Decodable where Element: Decodable {}

that should make it all work.
