I've been trying to display certain JSON data to the storyboard but for some reason have been unable. The part of it that works, is the the var name, which is a string, and it doesn't have to be converted so it just works. The part that I am having an issue with is trying to convert two Int64's to strings, but I have them listed as AnyObjects. It's really confusing me, but here is the issue in code:
The program runs fine, but it doesn't display any information for profileIconId and summonerLevel.
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController, NSURLConnectionDelegate {
lazy var data = NSMutableData()
@IBOutlet weak var searchField: UITextField!
@IBOutlet weak var name: UILabel!
@IBOutlet weak var summonerLevel: UILabel!
@IBOutlet weak var profileIconId: UILabel!
@IBAction func enterButton(sender: AnyObject) {
startConnection()
}
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
}
override func viewWillAppear(animated: Bool) {
super.viewWillAppear(animated)
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
func startConnection(){
let urlPath: String = "https://na.api.pvp.net/api/lol/na/v1.4/summoner/by-name/soon2challenger?api_key=(removed my private api key for obvious reasons)"
var url: NSURL = NSURL(string: urlPath)!
var request: NSURLRequest = NSURLRequest(URL: url)
var connection: NSURLConnection = NSURLConnection(request: request, delegate: self, startImmediately: false)!
connection.start()
}
func connection(connection: NSURLConnection!, didReceiveData data: NSData!){
self.data.appendData(data)
}
func buttonAction(sender: UIButton!){
startConnection()
}
func connectionDidFinishLoading(connection: NSURLConnection!) {
var err: NSError
// throwing an error on the line below (can't figure out where the error message is)
var jsonResult: NSDictionary = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data, options: NSJSONReadingOptions.MutableContainers, error: nil) as! NSDictionary
let include: AnyObject = jsonResult.objectForKey(searchField.text)!
var name1: AnyObject = include.objectForKey("name")!
var summLevel: AnyObject = include.objectForKey("summonerLevel")!
var profIconId: AnyObject = include.objectForKey("profileIconId")!
name.text = name1 as? String
profileIconId.text = profIconId as? String
summonerLevel.text = summLevel as? String
println(name1)
println(summLevel)
println(profIconId)
}
}
The code that processes and displays everything is in the connectionDidFinishLoading function at the very bottom of the code.
