Downloading and parsing json in swift

Question

I\'m trying to get the JSON from a website and parse it before putting it inside of an iOS view.

Here\'s my code;

func startConnection(){
        le         


        

Answer 1

This code works fine for me. Just init data property with data = NSMutableData() and write NSURLConnectionDelegate here class ViewController: UIViewController, NSURLConnectionDelegate

import UIKit

class ViewController: UIViewController, NSURLConnectionDelegate {

    @lazy var data = NSMutableData()

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
    }

    override func viewWillAppear(animated: Bool) {
        super.viewWillAppear(animated)
        startConnection()
    }

    override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
        super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
    }

    func startConnection(){
        let urlPath: String = "http://binaenaleyh.net/dusor/"
        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
        println(jsonResult)
    }
}

here is output:
