An extension to [Alamofire](https://github.com/Alamofire/Alamofire) which automatically converts JSON response data into swift objects using [ObjectMapper](https://github.com/Hearst-DD/ObjectMapper/). 

# Usage

Given a URL which returns weather data in the following form:
```
{
    "location": "Toronto, Canada",    
    "three_day_forecast": [
        { 
            "conditions": "Partly cloudy",
            "day" : "Monday",
            "temperature": 20 
        },
        { 
            "conditions": "Showers",
            "day" : "Tuesday",
            "temperature": 22 
        },
        { 
            "conditions": "Sunny",
            "day" : "Wednesday",
            "temperature": 28 
        }
    ]
}
```

You can use the extension as the follows:
```swift
import AlamofireObjectMapper

let URL = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tristanhimmelman/AlamofireObjectMapper/d8bb95982be8a11a2308e779bb9a9707ebe42ede/sample_json"
Alamofire.request(URL).responseObject { (response: DataResponse<WeatherResponse>) in

    let weatherResponse = response.result.value
    print(weatherResponse?.location)
    
    if let threeDayForecast = weatherResponse?.threeDayForecast {
        for forecast in threeDayForecast {
            print(forecast.day)
            print(forecast.temperature)           
        }
    }
}
```

The `WeatherResponse` object in the completion handler is a custom object which you define. The only requirement is that the object must conform to [ObjectMapper's](https://github.com/Hearst-DD/ObjectMapper/) `Mappable` protocol. In the above example, the `WeatherResponse` object looks like the following:

```swift
import ObjectMapper

class WeatherResponse: Mappable {
    var location: String?
    var threeDayForecast: [Forecast]?
    
	required init?(map: Map){

	}
    
    func mapping(map: Map) {
        location <- map["location"]
        threeDayForecast <- map["three_day_forecast"]
    }
}

class Forecast: Mappable {
    var day: String?
    var temperature: Int?
    var conditions: String?
    
	required init?(map: Map){

	}
    
    func mapping(map: Map) {
        day <- map["day"]
        temperature <- map["temperature"]
        conditions <- map["conditions"]
    }
}
```

The extension uses Generics to allow you to create your own custom response objects. Below is the `responseObject` function definition. Just replace `T` in the completionHandler with your custom response object and the extension handles the rest: 
```swift
public func responseObject<T: BaseMappable>(queue: DispatchQueue? = nil, keyPath: String? = nil, mapToObject object: T? = nil, context: MapContext? = nil, completionHandler: @escaping (DataResponse<T>) -> Void) -> Self
```
The `responseObject` function has 4 optional parameters and a required completionHandler:
- `queue`: The queue on which the completion handler is dispatched.
- `keyPath`: The key path of the JSON where object mapping should be performed.
- `mapToObject`: An object to perform the mapping on to.
- `context`: A [context object](https://github.com/Hearst-DD/ObjectMapper/#mapping-context) that is passed to the mapping function.
- `completionHandler`: A closure to be executed once the request has finished and the data has been mapped by ObjectMapper.

### Easy Mapping of Nested Objects

AlamofireObjectMapper supports dot notation within keys for easy mapping of nested objects. Given the following JSON String:
```json
"distance" : {
     "text" : "102 ft",
     "value" : 31
}
```
You can access the nested objects as follows:
```swift
func mapping(map: Map) {
    distance <- map["distance.value"]
}
```
[See complete documentation](https://github.com/Hearst-DD/ObjectMapper#easy-mapping-of-nested-objects)

### KeyPath

The `keyPath` variable is used to drill down into a JSON response and only map the data found at that `keyPath`. It supports nested values such as `data.weather` to drill down several levels in a JSON response.
```swift
let URL = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tristanhimmelman/AlamofireObjectMapper/2ee8f34d21e8febfdefb2b3a403f18a43818d70a/sample_keypath_json"
let expectation = expectationWithDescription("\(URL)")

Alamofire.request(URL).responseObject(keyPath: "data") { (response: DataResponse<WeatherResponse>) in
    expectation.fulfill()
    
    let weatherResponse = response.result.value
    print(weatherResponse?.location)
    
    if let threeDayForecast = weatherResponse?.threeDayForecast {
        for forecast in threeDayForecast {
            print(forecast.day)
            print(forecast.temperature)           
        }
    }
}
```

# Array Responses
If you have an endpoint that returns data in `Array` form you can map it with the following function:
```swift
public func responseArray<T: Mappable>(queue queue: dispatch_queue_t? = nil, keyPath: String? = nil, completionHandler: DataResponse<[T]> -> Void) -> Self
```

For example, if your endpoint returns the following:
```
[
    { 
        "conditions": "Partly cloudy",
        "day" : "Monday",
        "temperature": 20 
    },
    { 
        "conditions": "Showers",
        "day" : "Tuesday",
        "temperature": 22 
    },
    { 
        "conditions": "Sunny",
        "day" : "Wednesday",
        "temperature": 28 
    }
]
```
You can request and map it as follows:
```swift
let URL = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tristanhimmelman/AlamofireObjectMapper/f583be1121dbc5e9b0381b3017718a70c31054f7/sample_array_json"
Alamofire.request(URL).responseArray { (response: DataResponse<[Forecast]>) in

    let forecastArray = response.result.value
    
    if let forecastArray = forecastArray {
        for forecast in forecastArray {
            print(forecast.day)
            print(forecast.temperature)           
        }
    }
}

```
