Question

我正在使用《纽约时报》 API并收到消息

typeMismatch（Swift.Array，Swift.DecodingError.Context（codingPath： [CodingKeys（stringValue：“ results”，intValue：nil）， _JSONKey（stringValue：“ Index 3”，intValue：3），CodingKeys（stringValue：“ multimedia”，intValue：nil）]，debugDescription：“预期解码数组，但找到了一个字符串/数据。”，底层错误：nil））

当JSON的多媒体部分是字符串而不是数组时，就会发生这种情况：类似于此SO问题：

Swift Codable expected to decode Dictionary<String, Any>but found a string/data instead

所以我决定举一个最小的例子。

附文章

public struct Article : Codable {
    var abstract: String?
    var thumbnail_standard: String?
    var multimedia: [Multimedia]?
    var title: String?
    var url: URL?

    private enum CodingKeys: String, CodingKey {
        case abstract = "abstract"
        case multimedia = "multimedia"
        case thumbnail_standard = "thumbnail_standard"
        case title = "title"
        case url = "url"
    }
}

和多媒体

struct Multimedia: Codable {
    var url: String?

    private enum CodingKeys: String, CodingKey {
        case url = "url"
    }
}

我可以使用JSON字符串

只需代码即可

if let data = jsonString.data(using: .utf8)
{
    let decoder = JSONDecoder()
    let result = try? decoder.decode(Article.self, from: data)
    print(result)
}

但是以下JSON字符串被解码为nill：

        let jsonString = """
        {
            "slug_name": "01a3_quote-web",
            "section": "Today’s Paper",

            "created_date": "2019-04-30T21:26:36-04:00",
            "published_date": "2019-04-29T20:00:00-04:00",
            "first_published_date": "2019-04-30T21:25:06-04:00",
            "material_type_facet": "Quote",
            "kicker": null,
            "subheadline": null,
            "des_facet": "",
            "org_facet": "",
            "per_facet": "",
            "geo_facet": "",
            "related_urls": null,
            "multimedia": ""
        }
"""

即使我将对象中的属性设置为可选，也使用了self。，它们都使用了encoder.decode方法。

如何获取第二个JSON字符串进行解码？

解决方案

struct Article {
    let abstract: String
    let thumbnailStandard: String
    let multimedia: [Multimedia]
    let title: String
    let url: URL
}

extension Article: Decodable {
    enum CodingKeys: String, CodingKey {
        case abstract
        case thumbnailStandard = "thumbnail_standard"
        case multimedia
        case title
        case url
    }

    init(from decoder: Decoder) throws {
        let container = try decoder.container(keyedBy: CodingKeys.self)
        let abstract = try container.decode(String.self, forKey: .abstract)
        let thumbnailStandard = try container.decode(String.self, forKey: .thumbnailStandard)
        let multimedia = try container.decode([Multimedia].self, forKey: .multimedia)
        let title = try container.decode(String.self, forKey: .title)
        let url = try container.decode(URL.self, forKey: .url)

        self.init(abstract: abstract, thumbnailStandard: thumbnailStandard, multimedia: multimedia, title: title, url: url)
    }
}

struct Multimedia: Codable {
    let url: String
}

嗯，这种不一致应该由api处理。但是，您可以通过引入如下的enum来优雅地处理不同类型的返回类型，

enum MultiMediaType: Codable {

    case string(String)
    case array(Array<Multimedia>)

    init(from decoder: Decoder) throws {
        let container = try decoder.singleValueContainer()
        do {
            self = .array(try container.decode([Multimedia].self))
        } catch DecodingError.typeMismatch {
            self = .string(try container.decode(String.self))
        }
    }

    func encode(to encoder: Encoder) throws {
        var container = encoder.singleValueContainer()
        switch self {
        case .string(let value):
            try container.encode(value)
        case .array(let value):
            try container.encode(value)
        }
    }
}

public struct Article : Codable {
    var abstract: String?
    var thumbnail_standard: String?
    var multimedia: MultiMediaType
    var title: String?
    var url: URL?
}

一种解决方案是手动解码所有密钥，其值可以是不同的类型。

在此示例中，multimedia是可选的（[Multimedia]或nil），而perFacet是非可选的[String]，如果该值为空，则为空字符串。

所有结构成员都是常量（let），并添加了convertFromSnakeCase策略以摆脱 snake_cased 名称

struct Article : Decodable {
    let abstract: String
    let thumbnailStandard: String
    let multimedia: [Multimedia]?
    let perFacet : [String]
    let title: String
    let url: URL

    private enum CodingKeys: String, CodingKey {
        case abstract, multimedia, thumbnailStandard, title, url, perFacet
    }

    init(from decoder: Decoder) throws {
        let container = try decoder.container(keyedBy: CodingKeys.self)
        abstract = try container.decode(String.self, forKey: .abstract)
        thumbnailStandard = try container.decode(String.self, forKey: .thumbnailStandard)
        do {
            perFacet = try container.decode([String].self, forKey: .perFacet)
        } catch DecodingError.typeMismatch {
            perFacet = []
        }
        do {
            multimedia = try container.decode([Multimedia].self, forKey: .multimedia)
        } catch DecodingError.typeMismatch {
            multimedia = nil
        }
        title = try container.decode(String.self, forKey: .title)
        url = try container.decode(URL.self, forKey: .url)
    }
}

struct Multimedia: Decodable {
    let url: URL
    let format, type, subtype, caption, copyright: String
    let height, width: Int
}

let data = Data(jsonString.utf8)

let decoder = JSONDecoder()
decoder.keyDecodingStrategy = .convertFromSnakeCase
do {
    let result = try decoder.decode(Article.self, from: data)
    print(result)
} catch { print(error) }

使用可编码的Swift JSON解码找到了一个字符串/数据
