how to get data from Child JSON

Question

I am making a weather app and I am trying to get the date and weather from my son file. I successfully get inside "daily" but I can't get inside "data" which is inside "daily". this is the code:

func downloadForecastWeather(completed: @escaping DownloadComplete) {
    Alamofire.request(FORECAST_API_URL).responseJSON { (response) in
        let result = response.result
        if let dictionary = result.value as? Dictionary<String, AnyObject> {
            if let list = dictionary["list"] as? [Dictionary<String, AnyObject>] {
                for item in list {
                    let forecast = ForecastWeather(weatherDict: item)
                    self.forecastArray.append(forecast)
                }
                self.forecastArray.remove(at: 0)
                self.tableView.reloadData()
            }
        }
        completed()
    }
}

and here is my ForecastWeather class:

init(weatherDict: Dictionary<String, AnyObject>) {
    if let temp = weatherDict["temperatureMin"] as? Double {

            let rawValue = (temp - 273.15).rounded(toPlaces: 0)
            self._temp = rawValue
        }


    if let date = weatherDict["time"] as? Double {

        let rawDate = Date(timeIntervalSince1970: date)
        let dateFormatter = DateFormatter()
        dateFormatter.dateStyle = .medium

        self._date = "\(rawDate.dayOfTheWeek())"
    }

}

Here is a link for json: https://api.darksky.net/forecast/132d3013b6e07bdf66159c1f5a90f76c/37.8267,-122.4233 So basically my question is how to get data from "data" which is inside "daily" and use it in my for in method.

Try using with SwiftyJSON it is easy to integrate in your code, all you have to do is to add below code inside your downloadForecastWeather function.

func downloadForecastWeather(completed: @escaping DownloadComplete) {
        Alamofire.request(FORECAST_API_URL).responseJSON { (response) in

            let jsondata = JSON(response.result.value!)

            if let myData = jsondata["list"]["daily"]["data"].arrayObject { // here you can access your data inside daily
                for data in myData {
                    let forecast = ForecastWeather(weatherDict: data)
                    self.forecastArray.append(forecast)
                }
                self.forecastArray.remove(at: 0)
                self.tableView.reloadData()
            }
            completed()
        }
    }

I hope it works for you.
