RestKit: mapping JSON array of strings

Question

Given the following JSON:

{
   \"someKey\":\"someValue\",
   \"otherKey\":\"otherValue\",
   \"features\":[
      \"feature1\",
      \"feature2\",
      \"f         


        

Answer 1

If you are using Restkit 0.20+ then all you need to do is set the property that is representing the string array of your entity to Transformable.

For example, in this case your Feature entity has 3 properties:

someKey - String
otherKey - String
features - Transformable

Restkit will automatically map 'features' as a string array.

So once mapped, to access one of the strings in the features array would be as simple as:

[Feature.features objectAtIndex:?]

I just tried it and it works perfect.
