Load JSON Array from HTTP Response Body

Demonstrates how to load the HTTP response body directly into a JsonArray. Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

    let http = CkoHttp()!

    let resp = CkoHttpResponse()!
    success = http.httpStr(verb: "GET", url: "https://www.chilkatsoft.com/exampledata/sampleArray.json", bodyStr: "", charset: "", contentType: "", response: resp)
    if success == false {
        print("\(http.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    // A JSON array is JSON that begins with "[" and ends with "]"
    let jarr = CkoJsonArray()!

    // If we wish to transfer (instead of copy) the JSON from the HttpResponse to the JsonArray, then add the keyword "TakeResponseBody" to UncommonOptions
    // This could save memory for extremely large JSON responses.
    resp.uncommonOptions = "TakeResponseBody"

    resp.getBodyJarr(jarr: jarr)

    print("\(jarr.emit()!)")

    // Note: If UncommonOptions contained "TakeResponseBody", then the response BodyStr will now be empty:
    print("----")
    print("\(resp.bodyStr!)")
