Filter NSMutableArray with All the values of nsarray

Question

I have MutableArray like this...

    restaurants = ({
    cuisines =   ({
                    "cuisine_id" = 1;
                    "cuisine_name" = Indian;
                },
                {
                    "cuisine_id" = 2;
                    "cuisine_name" = SriLanka;
                }
            );}

            { cuisines = ({
                    "cuisine_id" = 1;
                    "cuisine_name" = Chinese;
                },
                {
                    "cuisine_id" = 2;
                    "cuisine_name" = Afghani;
                }
            );}

           {cuisines =({
                    "cuisine_id" = 1;
                    "cuisine_name" = Chinese;
                },
                {
                    "cuisine_id" = 2;
                    "cuisine_name" = Afghani;
                }
            );}
        )

And I'm Filtering Restaurants Array With multiple values of cuisine_name For Example if I have a,

Nsarray like this cuisine_name ( Indian, Srilankan, Chinese, )

I want to filter my Restaurants array on basis of each object of cusine_name.

At present I'm doing like this..

        NSPredicate *predicateCuisines = [NSPredicate   predicateWithFormat:@"(cuisines.cuisine_name = %@)",[cuisineTypes      valueForKey:@"cuisine_name"]];
    [self.arrRestaurantList filterUsingPredicate:predicateCuisines];

But it filtering Using description...For Restaurant Array which contains whole three values(Indian,Srilankan,Chinese) but i want to filter with each object of cuisine_name. Any help will really appreciated..

Answer 1

plz use this

  NSArray* arrtu4 = @[@{@"cuisines" : @[@{@"cuisine_id" : @1,@"cuisine_name" : @"Indian"},@{ @"cuisine_id" : @2, @"cuisine_name" : @"SriLanka"}]},@{ @"cuisines" : @[@{@"cuisine_id" : @1,@"cuisine_name" : @"Chinese"},@{@"cuisine_id" : @2,@"cuisine_name" : @"Afghani"}]},@{@"cuisines" :@[@{@"cuisine_id" :@1,@"cuisine_name" : @"Chinese"},@{ @"cuisine_id" : @2,@"cuisine_name" : @"Afghani"}]}];
    NSMutableArray *arrryfilted = [NSMutableArray array];

    NSArray *arrayCountrys = @[@"Chinese",@"SriLanka",@"Indian"];

for (int i = 0; i<arrtu4.count; i++)
{

    NSArray *filterArray2 = [[arrtu4 objectAtIndex:i]valueForKey:@"cuisines"];

    NSArray *filterArray3 = [filterArray2 filteredArrayUsingPredicate:[NSPredicate predicateWithBlock:^BOOL(id  _Nonnull evaluatedObject, NSDictionary<NSString *,id> * _Nullable bindings) {
        return [arrayCountrys containsObject:[evaluatedObject valueForKey:@"cuisine_name"]]  ;

                }]];




     [arrryfilted addObjectsFromArray:filterArray3 ];



}

NSLog(@"%@",arrryfilted);

output:

    },
        {

        "cuisine_name" = SriLanka;
    },
        {
        "cuisine_id" = 1;
        "cuisine_name" = Chinese;
    },
        {
        "cuisine_id" = 1;
        "cuisine_name" = Chinese;
    }
