                    -jsonKeysMapToProperties

@description If you want to a property key in the json to be mapped to a new one when you deserialize the json, you declare the property name as key and the name you want it mapped to in the value.

Warning

Property keys you declare in the NSDictionary are case sensitive, make sure they are correctly typed otherwise they are ignored.

@retun NSDictionary

Declaration

Objective-C

- (NSDictionary *)jsonKeysMapToProperties;

Swift

optional func jsonKeysMapToProperties() -> [AnyHashable : Any]!


                    
                    
                    -propertyKeysMapToJson

@description If you want to a property key to be mapped to a new one when you serialize for the json you declare the property name as key and the name you want it mapped to in the value. Example is an object with a property name called name, which he wants mapped to firstName for the serialized json object. you would declare an NSDictionary as such @{ @“name” : @“firstName” }

Warning

Property keys you declare in the NSDictionary are case sensitive, make sure they are correctly typed otherwise they are ignored.

@retun NSDictionary

Declaration

Objective-C

- (NSDictionary *)propertyKeysMapToJson;

Swift

optional func propertyKeysMapToJson() -> [AnyHashable : Any]!


                    
                    
                    -propertiesToIgnoreJsonSerialization

@description If you do not want all the properties of the object to be serialized automatically you can ignore specific properties. Declare the properties you want serialized using NSString in the NSSet.

Warning

Properties you declare in the NSSet are case sensitive, make sure they are correctly typed otherwise they are ignored.

Declaration

Objective-C

- (NSSet *)propertiesToIgnoreJsonSerialization;

Swift

optional func propertiesToIgnoreJsonSerialization() -> Set<AnyHashable>!

Return Value

NSSet


                    
                    
                    -propertiesToIgnoreJsonDeserialization

@description If you do not want all the properties of the object to be deserialized automatically you can ignore specific properties. Declare the properties you want serialized using NSString in the NSSet.

Warning

Properties you declare in the NSSet are case sensitive, make sure they are correctly typed otherwise they are ignored.

Declaration

Objective-C

- (NSSet *)propertiesToIgnoreJsonDeserialization;

Swift

optional func propertiesToIgnoreJsonDeserialization() -> Set<AnyHashable>!

Return Value

NSSet


                    
                    
                    -propertiesToSerialize

@description A delegate method which enables you to declares the properties you want serialized and ignores all other properties. Declare the properties you want serialized using NSString in the NSSet. It still maps the properties using the propertyKeysMapToJson.

Warning

Properties you declare in the NSSet are case sensitive, make sure they are correctly typed otherwise they are ignored.

Declaration

Objective-C

- (NSSet *)propertiesToSerialize;

Swift

optional func propertiesToSerialize() -> Set<AnyHashable>!

Return Value

NSSet


                    
                    
                    -propertiesToDeserialize

@description A delegate method which enables you to declares the properties you want deserialized and ignores all other properties. Declare the properties you want deserialized unsing NSString in the NSSet. It still maps the properties using the jsonKeysMapToProperties.

Warning

Properties you declare in the NSSet are case sensitive, make sure they are correctly typed otherwise they are ignored.

Declaration

Objective-C

- (NSSet *)propertiesToDeserialize;

Swift

optional func propertiesToDeserialize() -> Set<AnyHashable>!

Return Value

NSSet


                    
                    
                    -propertyValueTransformers

@description A delegate method which has a key associated with a property of the associated object to serialize, and holds a NSValueTransformer in the dictionary for the given property.

The NSValueTransformer has to allow reverse transformation if it is to serialize an object. The transformedValue: method is used for deserialization of the property and reverseTransformedValue: for the serialization of an object.

Warning

if the value transformer does not return the correct type it will cause a runtime exception. The key in the dictionary needs to match the property (case sensitive) or it will be ignored.

Declaration

Objective-C

- (NSDictionary *)propertyValueTransformers;

Swift

optional func propertyValueTransformers() -> [AnyHashable : Any]!

Return Value

NSDictionary


                    
                    
                    -subclassedProperties

@description A delegate method which has a key that represent the property key that you want to be serialized/deserialized

Declaration

Objective-C

- (NSDictionary<NSString *, MNFJsonAdapterSubclassedProperty *> *)
    subclassedProperties;

Swift

optional func subclassedProperties() -> [String : MNFJsonAdapterSubclassedProperty]!


                    
                    
                    +objectToPopulate

@description A delegate method which returns an object that will be populated with the json information instead of using the default alloc / init on the class object. This is in order to use with f.e. Core Data where you have should not use alloc / init or any other uses where you would like to have a custom initializer for the json adapter populated objects.

Declaration

Objective-C

+ (id)objectToPopulate;

Swift

optional static func objectToPopulate() -> Any!
