以递归方式从JSON结构中删除空值

标签: objective-c recursion nsdictionary nsnull

我经常发现需要将NSJSONSerialization创建的数据结构缓存到磁盘,如果有空值则-writeToFile失败,我需要一个在结构未知时有效的修复。 这是有效的,并且允许直接变异,因为NSMutableDictionary本身的实例没有被枚举,但感觉有点hacky。

这是完全正常还是重新创建一棵新树并返回它是绝对必要的?

- (void) removeNullsFromJSONTree:(id) branch
{
    if ([branch isKindOfClass:[NSMutableArray class]])
    {
        //Keep drilling to find the leaf dictionaries
        for (id childBranch in branch)
        {
            [self removeNullsFromJSONTree:childBranch];
        }
    }
    else if ([branch isKindOfClass:[NSMutableDictionary class]])
    {
        const id nul = [NSNull null];
        const NSString *empty = @"";
        for(NSString *key in [branch allKeys])
        {
            const id object = [branch objectForKey:key];
            if(object == nul)
            {
                [branch setObject:empty forKey:key];
            }
        }
    }
}

你的一般方法没有错。由于NSNull是单身,因此通过指针比较来查找它是可以的。

但是,您没有对字典中的值进行递归。通常,这些值可能是数组或字典本身。也许在你的具体情况下,你知道他们不是。但如果它们可以,则需要对字典中的每个值执行removeNullsFromJSONTree:

您也不会在数组中查找NSNull。你应该?处理起来很简单:

[branch removeObject:[NSNull null]];

removeObject:方法删除参数的所有实例。

我个人不喜欢明确地测试对象类,因为我可以使用类别让消息发送系统为我做。所以我可以在NSObject上定义一个类别:

// NSObject+KezRemoveNulls.h

@interface NSObject (KezRemoveNulls)

- (void)Kez_removeNulls;

@end

我会为NSObject编写默认的无操作实现,并覆盖NSMutableArrayNSMutableDictionary

// NSObject+KezRemoveNulls.m

#import "NSObject+KezRemoveNulls.h"

@implementation NSObject (KezRemoveNulls)

- (void)Kez_removeNulls {
    // nothing to do
}

@end

@implementation NSMutableArray (KezRemoveNulls)

- (void)Kez_removeNulls {
    [self removeObject:[NSNull null]];
    for (NSObject *child in self) {
        [child Kez_removeNulls];
    }
}

@end

@implementation NSMutableDictionary (KezRemoveNulls)

- (void)Kez_removeNulls {
    NSNull *null = [NSNull null];
    for (NSObject *key in self.allKeys) {
        NSObject *value = self[key];
        if (value == null) {
            [self removeObjectForKey:key];
        } else {
            [value Kez_removeNulls];
        }
    }
}

@end

请注意,所有实现代码仍在一个文件中。

现在我可以这样说:

id rootObject = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:...];
[rootObject Kez_removeNulls];

这是我用来清理我的JSON调用的代码,似乎运行良好但是,由于涉及一些处理开销,我实际上只在我无法在服务器上进行空值处理的情况下使用它。 NSNull崩溃是我们最大的应用程序崩溃问题。

+ (id)cleanJsonToObject:(id)data {
    NSError* error;
    if (data == (id)[NSNull null]){
        return [[NSObject alloc] init];
    }
    id jsonObject;
    if ([data isKindOfClass:[NSData class]]){
        jsonObject = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:data options:kNilOptions error:&error];
    } else {
        jsonObject = data;
    }
    if ([jsonObject isKindOfClass:[NSArray class]]) {
        NSMutableArray *array = [jsonObject mutableCopy];
        for (int i = array.count-1; i >= 0; i--) {
            id a = array[i];
            if (a == (id)[NSNull null]){
                [array removeObjectAtIndex:i];
            } else {
                array[i] = [self cleanJsonToObject:a];
            }
        }
        return array;
    } else if ([jsonObject isKindOfClass:[NSDictionary class]]) {
        NSMutableDictionary *dictionary = [jsonObject mutableCopy];
        for(NSString *key in [dictionary allKeys]) {
            id d = dictionary[key];
            if (d == (id)[NSNull null]){
                dictionary[key] = @"";
            } else {
                dictionary[key] = [self cleanJsonToObject:d];
            }
        }
        return dictionary;
    } else {
        return jsonObject;
    }
}

通过传递通过NSURLConnection检索的NSData来调用它。

NSArray *uableData = [utility cleanJsonToObject:data];

NSDictionary *uableData = [utility cleanJsonToObject:data];
