NSJSONSerialization | 易学教程

问题

I have problems with some public json services with serveices formatted this way

jsonFlickrFeed({
        "title": "Uploads from everyone",
        "link": "http://www.flickr.com/photos/",
        "description": "",
        "modifi ... })

NSJSONSerialization seems to be unable to make its work

NSURL *jsonUrl = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://d.yimg.com/autoc.finance.yahoo.com/autoc?query=yahoo&callback=YAHOO.Finance.SymbolSuggest.ssCallback"];
NSError *error = nil;
NSData *jsonData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:jsonUrl options:kNilOptions error:&error];
NSMutableDictionary *jsonResponse = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:jsonData options:NSJSONReadingAllowFragments error:&error];
NSLog(@"%@", jsonResponse);

Using the latest web API I have solved my problem.

For reference, the old web API is: http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photos_public.gne?id=xxxxxxxx&lang=en-us&format=json

The current web API is: http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photos_public.gne?id=xxxxxxxx&lang=en-us&format=json&nojsoncallback=1

It's done.

I think that NSJSONSerialization can't deal with the jsonFlickrFeed ( ... ) in your JSON code. The problem is that the pure response is invalid JSON (test it here).

So you will have to build a way around this issue. You could for example search for the string jsonFlickrFeed( in the response and delete it or - the easier way - just cut off the beginning until the valid JSON starts and cut off the last character (which should be the bracket).

Flickr does some bad things with their JSON that the parser can't cope with:

they start with 'jsonFlickrFeed(' and end with ')'
- this means that the root object is not valid
they incorrectly escape single quotes .. eg. \'
- this is invalid JSON and will make the parser sad!

For those looking to process the Flick JSON feed

//get the feed
NSURL *flickrFeedURL = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photos_public.gne?format=json&tags=data"];
NSData *badJSON = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:flickrFeedURL];
//convert to UTF8 encoded string so that we can manipulate the 'badness' out of Flickr's feed
NSString *dataAsString = [NSString stringWithUTF8String:[badJSON bytes]];
//remove the leading 'jsonFlickrFeed(' and trailing ')' from the response data so we are left with a dictionary root object
NSString *correctedJSONString = [NSString stringWithString:[dataAsString substringWithRange:NSMakeRange (15, dataAsString.length-15-1)]];
//Flickr incorrectly tries to escape single quotes - this is invalid JSON (see http://stackoverflow.com/a/2275428/423565)
//correct by removing escape slash (note NSString also uses \ as escape character - thus we need to use \\)
correctedJSONString = [correctedJSONString stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"\\'" withString:@"'"];
//re-encode the now correct string representation of JSON back to a NSData object which can be parsed by NSJSONSerialization
NSData *correctedData = [correctedJSONString dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSError *error = nil;
NSDictionary *json = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:correctedData options:NSJSONReadingAllowFragments error:&error];
if (error) {
    NSLog(@"this still sucks - and we failed");
} else {
    NSLog(@"we successfully parsed the flickr 'JSON' feed: %@", json);
}

Moral to the story - Flickr is naughty - smack.
