Creating a JSON Store For iPhone

Question

We have loads of apps where we fetch data from remote web services as JSON and then use a parser to translate that into a Core-Data model.

For one of our app

Answer 1

I use SBJson to parse JSON to NSDictionaries then save them as .plist files using [dict writeToFile:saveFilePath atomically:YES]. Loading is also just as simple NSMutableDictionary *dict = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithContentsOfFile:saveFilePath]. Its fast, efficient and easy. No need for a database.
