VIMObjectMapper converts JSON into model objects.

Setup

Add VIMObjectMapper to your project. Do this by including it as a git submodule or by using cocoapods:

# Add this to your podfile
target 'MyTarget' do
    pod 'VIMObjectMapper', '{CURRENT_POD_VERSION}'
end

Usage

Subclass VIMModelObject

Make your custom model object a subclass of VIMModelObject and optionally implement the VIMMappable protocol methods:

#import "VIMModelObject.h"

@class VIMPictureCollection;

@interface VIMUser : VIMModelObject

@property (nonatomic, copy) NSString *name;
@property (nonatomic, strong) VIMPictureCollection *pictureCollection;
@property (nonatomic, strong) NSDictionary *uploadQuota;
@property (nonatomic, strong) NSArray *websites;

@end
#import "VIMUser.h"
#import "VIMPictureCollection.h"
#import "VIMObjectMapper.h"

@implementation VIMUser

#pragma mark - VIMMappable // All methods are optional, implement to specify how the object should be "inflated"

- (NSDictionary *)getObjectMapping
{
    return @{@"pictures": @"pictureCollection"};
}

- (Class)getClassForCollectionKey:(NSString *)key
{
    if ([key isEqualToString:@"uploadQuota"])
    {
        return [NSDictionary class];
    }

    if ([key isEqualToString:@"websites"])
    {
        return [NSArray class];
    }

    return nil;
}

- (Class)getClassForObjectKey:(NSString *)key
{
    if ([key isEqualToString:@"pictures"])
    {
        return [VIMPictureCollection class];
    }

    return nil;
}

- (void)didFinishMapping
{
    // Do any post-parsing work you might want to do
}

Get some JSON

{
    user = {
        name = "Homer Simpson";
        pictures = {
            uri = "...";
            sizes = (...);
        };
        "upload_quota" = { ... };
        websites = ( ... );
    };
}

Let VIMObjectMapper go to work

NSDictionary *JSON = ...;

VIMObjectMapper *mapper = [[VIMObjectMapper alloc] init];

[mapper addMappingClass:[VIMUser class] forKeypath:@"user"];

VIMUser *user = [mapper applyMappingToJSON:JSON];
