如何处理 JSON 格式与 Swift 4 Codable 的不一致?

How to handle JSON format inconsistencies with Swift 4 Codable?

我需要解析 JSON 其中一个字段值是数组:

"list" :
[
    {
        "value" : 1
    }
]

或一个空字符串,以防没有数据:

"list" : ""

不好,但我无法更改格式。

我正在考虑将我的手动解析转换为 JSONDecoderCodable struct

我该如何处理这种讨厌的不一致?

你需要尝试用一种方式解码,如果失败,再用另一种方式解码。这意味着您不能使用 compiler-generated 解码支持。你必须手工完成。如果你想要完整的错误检查,这样做:

import Foundation

struct ListItem: Decodable {
    var value: Int
}

struct MyResponse: Decodable {

    var list: [ListItem] = []

    init(from decoder: Decoder) throws {
        let container = try decoder.container(keyedBy: CodingKeys.self)
        do {
            list = try container.decode([ListItem].self, forKey: .list)
        } catch {
            switch error {
            // In Swift 4, the expected type is [Any].self, but I think it will be [ListItem].self in a newer Swift with conditional conformance support.
            case DecodingError.typeMismatch(let expectedType, _) where expectedType == [Any].self || expectedType == [ListItem].self:
                let dummyString = try container.decode(String.self, forKey: .list)
                if dummyString != "" {
                    throw DecodingError.dataCorruptedError(forKey: .list, in: container, debugDescription: "Expected empty string but got \"\(dummyString)\"")
                }
                list = []
            default: throw error
            }
        }
    }

    enum CodingKeys: String, CodingKey {
        case list
    }

}

如果你不想检查错误,你可以将init(from:)缩短为:

    init(from decoder: Decoder) throws {
        let container = try decoder.container(keyedBy: CodingKeys.self)
        list = (try? container.decode([ListItem].self, forKey: .list)) ?? []
    }

测试 1:

let jsonString1 = """
{
    "list" : [ { "value" : 1 } ]
}
"""
print(try! JSONDecoder().decode(MyResponse.self, from: jsonString1.data(using: .utf8)!))

输出 1:

MyResponse(list: [__lldb_expr_82.ListItem(value: 1)])

测试 2:

let jsonString2 = """
{
    "list" : ""
}
"""
print(try! JSONDecoder().decode(MyResponse.self, from: jsonString2.data(using: .utf8)!))

输出 2:

MyResponse(list: [])
