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

Solved this myself. I can just do

    parameters =
    [
        "params": array
    ]

Where array is Dictionary (String, AnyObject). The problem I initially had with this solution was that you can't insert booleans into this kind of dictionary, they will just be converted into integers. But apparently alamofire JSON encoding (I think) sends them as true/false values nevertheless.

Answer 2

Taken from Alamofire's GitHub page:

let parameters = [
    "foo": [1,2,3],
"bar": [
    "baz": "qux"
]
]

Alamofire.request(.POST, "http://httpbin.org/post", parameters: parameters, encoding: .JSON)
// HTTP body: {"foo": [1, 2, 3], "bar": {"baz": "qux"}}

EDIT: And from your example:

let parameters = [
    "string": "str",
"params": [[
    "param1" : "something",
    "param2" : 1,
    "param3" : 2,
    "param" : false
],[
    "param1" : "something",
    "param2" : 1,
    "param3" : 2,
    "param" : false
]
]
