saving swifty json array to user defaults

问题

i have a json data which gives the following information:

let data = [
  {
    "QuestionTitle" : "Entomology is the science that studies",
    "Id" : 205,
    "Options" : [
      { "Option" : "Insects", "Id" : 810 },
      { "Option" : "The origin and history of technical and scientific terms", "Id" : 811 },
      { "Option" : "The formation of rocks", "Id" : 812 },
      { "Option" : "Behavior of human beings", "Id" : 809 }
    ]
  },
  {
    "QuestionTitle" : "A train running at the speed of 60 km\/hr crosses a pole in 9 seconds. What is the length of the train?",
    "Id" : 199,
    "Options" : [
      { "Option" : "120 metres", "Id" : 785 },
      { "Option" : "324 metres", "Id" : 787 },
      { "Option" : "180 metres", "Id" : 786 },
      { "Option" : "150 metres", "Id" : 788 }
    ]
  }
]

I am using swiftyjson. I want to save the entire array using nsuserdefaults.

GlobalVar.defaults.set(json, forKey: "questionArray")
GlobalVar.defaults.synchronize()

However, I get an error

"[User Defaults] Attempt to set a non-property-list object".

Please assist i am new to swift. I have also checked other similar questions but seems to not work.

回答1:

You cannot save SwiftyJSON's custom type JSON to UserDefaults but you can save the raw array because a deserialized JSON collection type is property list compliant.

Just call arrayObject on the JSON object:

GlobalVar.defaults.set(json.arrayObject, forKey: "questionArray")

Swift 3.0

You can save SwiftyJSON custom type data as like below.

guard let rawData = try? json.rawData() else { return }
UserDefaults.standard.setValue(rawData, forKey: "Your_key")

And, To retrieve JSON data from UserDefaults, you can do like this way.

guard let data = UserDefaults.standard.value(forKey: "Your_key") as? Data else { return }

let json = JSON(data)

You can't save the array of dictionary directly to the NSUserDefault, You need to convert the object of array into NSData

We can save array of dictionary directly, no problem. Only, the problem is, how to retrieve it?

It barely downcast to array of dictionary (say [[String : Any]]). for this, we required SwiftyJSON pods import SwiftyJSON // Don't forget this

let arrayOfDictionary = [
                         { 
                           "VersionNumber" : "1.0.0.0", 
                                  "FormID" : "18"
                          },
                         {
                           "VersionNumber" : "1.0.0.3",
                                  "FormID" : "19"
                          }
                         ]

Saving it directly to UserDefaults like :

UserDefaults.standard.set(saveFormDetails, forKey: "FormDetails")

Retrieving from UserDefaults :

let savedFormDetailsData = JSON.init(rawValue:UserDefaults.standard.array(forKey: "FormDetails"))

Now, savedFormDetailsData is the array of dictionary back [PropertyList Type], for further we do :

for form in 0..<arrayOfDictionary.count {
    print("FormID :", savedFormDetailsData?[form]["FormID"]) 
    print("VersionNumber :", savedFormDetailsData?[form]["VersionNumber"])
}
