parse json feeds using jsonkit iOS [closed]

Question

I'm trying to use the JSONKIt found here https://github.com/johnezang/JSONKit to parse through a JSON Feed and put into objective-c objects. I'm new at iOS and don't really know where to start. Are there any good tutorials for using this library?

Answer 1

After googling, I didn't find any tutorials but using JSONKit should be self explanatory.

After downloading your JSON feed using NSURLConnection or ASIHTTPRequest simply create a dictionary of all the objects in the JSON feed like so:

//jsonString is your downloaded string JSON Feed
NSDictionary *deserializedData = [jsonString objectFromJSONString];

//Helpful snippet to log all the deserialized objects and their keys
NSLog(@"%@", [deserializedData description]);

After creating a dictionary you can simply do something like this:

    NSString *string = [deserializedData objectForKey:@"someJSONKey"];

And that is the basics behind JSONKit.

JSONKit is much more powerful of course, you can find some of the other things you can do with it in JSONKit.h
