iOS JSON Error: NSDebugDescription=Garbage at end

Question

This is a really weird bug, when grabbing JSON from my server (which is produced via PHP), I get this error when calling:

json = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObj         


        

Answer 1

using swift 4, first of all check the JSON Data using print :

print (String(data:data!, encoding: .utf8)!)

check for the white spaces or unwanted characters, then remove them :

var string = String(data: data!, encoding: .utf8)
string = string?.replacingOccurrences(of: "/r/n", with: "")

after that, assign the string back to data variable :

let data1 = string!.data(using: .utf8)
