While it's possible to get a list of properties from an instance: it requires an instance which is troublesome if the Type isn't trivial and doesn't have a straightforward .init()
. Similarly, can't we test the existence of a nested type?
struct SomeStruct: Codable {
var x: Int
var y: Int
}
class CoolClass: Codable {
var thing: SomeStruct
var name: String
enum CodingKeys: String, CodingKey {
case name = "title", name = "stuff"
}
}
func testA(_ type: Any.Type) {
if type is Codable.Protocol {
print("is Codable")
} else {
print("is NOT Codable")
}
let mirror = Mirror(reflecting: type)
mirror.children // << empty collection!!
}
func testB<T>(_ type: T.Type) where T: Codable {
// test if `type` defines `CodingKeys` or if it is synthesized.
}
testA(SomeStruct.self) // "is NOT Codable", can't get list of ["x", "y"]
// , nor can't get CodingKeys...
If there is no reflection for metatypes, my attempts at piggybacking off of Codable
's CodingKeys (explicit or synthesized) have all failed. Is this possible?
