How do I use JSON arrays with Alamofire parameters?

Question

I\'m having a bit of trouble structuring my parameters so that our server API would be able to read it as valid JSON.

Alamofire uses parameters like this in swift la

Answer 1

if you are using SwiftyJSON, you can write like this

let array = ["2010-12-13T5:03:20","2010-12-13T5:03:20"]
 let paramsJSON = JSON(array)
 var arrString = paramsJSON.rawString(NSUTF8StringEncoding)

Answer 2

You need to create a NSArray object for array parameters.

var yourParameters = [
  "String": "a string",
  "Int": 1,
  "Array": NSArray(
    array: [
        "a", "b", "c"
    ])
]

Swift 2.2 and using SwiftyJSON.swift
You can use like this.

    var arrayList : [String: AnyObject]//one item of array

    var list: [JSON] = []//data array 

    for i in 0..<10//loop if you need
    { 

        arrayList = [
            "param1":"",
            "param1":"",
            "param2":["","",""]
        ]

        list.append(JSON(arrayList))//append to your list

    }


    //params
    let params: [String : AnyObject]=[

        "Id":"3456291",
        "List":"\(list)"//set
    ]

In case, there is a need to pass array directly as a parameter for a alamofire request, the following method worked for me.

source: https://github.com/Alamofire/Alamofire/issues/1508

let headers = NetworkManager.sharedInstance.headers
var urlRequest = URLRequest(url: URL(string: (ServerURL + Api))!)
urlRequest.httpMethod = "post"
urlRequest.allHTTPHeaderFields = headers
let jsonArrayencoding = JSONDocumentArrayEncoding(array: documents)
let jsonAryEncodedRequest = try? jsonArrayencoding.encode(urlRequest, with: nil)

    var request: Alamofire.DataRequest? = customAlamofireManager.request(jsonAryEncodedRequest!)
    request?.validate{request, response, data in
        return .success
        }
        .responseJSON {

Using Swift 5 You can use like this.

  var authParams:[String:Any] = [:]

  var authParamsObject:[String:Any] = [:]


    authParamsObject["is_urgent"] = data_any
    authParamsObject["body"] = data_any

  authParams = ["note_set" : authParamsObject]

Json Result :

{
  "note_set":
    {
      "is_urgent": true,
      "body": "string"
    }
}

In my case.

let query = "blm"
let allCountriesParameter = ["country": "*"]
let jsonObject: [String: Any] = ["query": query, "locations": [allCountriesParameter]]
let httpBody = try JSONSerialization.data(withJSONObject: jsonObject)

How it looks.

    print(String(data: httpBody, encoding: .utf8))

    {
       "query":"blm",
       "locations":[
          {
             "country":"*"
          }
       ]
    }
