使用Alamofire请求方法在POST的请求正文中发送JSON对象数组

Question

I have an array of JSON objects that I would like to pass into the request body of a POST request to our server. However the method signature for the request method only takes a dictionary as its parameters:

func request(method: Alamofire.Method, _ URLString: URLStringConvertible, parameters: [String : AnyObject]? = default, encoding: Alamofire.ParameterEncoding = default, headers: [String : String]? = default) -> Alamofire.Request

Is there a way to currently do this in Alamofire without creating the NSURLRequest yourself? Or is it in the plan for future development?

Answer 1

You will need to use the .Custom parameter encoding to do this or manually create the NSURLRequest yourself. Another possible option would be to modify the server to accept the array with a parameter name in the JSON.

As of right now, there are no plans to support this feature, but thank you for making us aware of this limitation. I have added the issue to our internal Trello board and we will discuss whether we would like to support this in the future.
