我可能还会推荐Ray Wenderlich的Swift JSON教程(它还涵盖了很棒的SwiftyJSON替代品，Gloss)。一段摘录(它本身并不能完全回答海报上的问题，但这个答案的附加价值是链接，所以请不要给它加-1):

在Objective-C中，解析和反序列化JSON相当简单:

NSArray *json = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:JSONData
options:kNilOptions error:nil];
NSString *age = json[0][@"person"][@"age"];
NSLog(@"Dani's age is %@", age);

在Swift中，由于Swift的可选选项和类型安全，解析和反序列化JSON有点繁琐，但作为Swift 2.0的一部分，guard语句被引入，以帮助摆脱嵌套的if语句:

var json: Array!
do {
  json = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(JSONData, options: NSJSONReadingOptions()) as? Array
} catch {
  print(error)
}

guard let item = json[0] as? [String: AnyObject],
  let person = item["person"] as? [String: AnyObject],
  let age = person["age"] as? Int else {
    return;
}
print("Dani's age is \(age)")

当然，在XCode 8中。x，你只需双击空格键，然后说“嘿，Siri，请在Swift 3.0中用空格/制表符缩进为我反序列化这个JSON。”

一般的方法可以是这样的:

创建响应类名称字符串的json文件

struct Response: Codable,FileDecodable {
    typealias T = Self
    let names:[Data]
}
protocol FileDecodable{
   associatedtype T:Codable
   static func loadJson() ->T?
}

extension FileDecodable{
    static func loadJson() -> T? {
        let fileName = String(describing: T.self)
        if let url = Bundle.main.url(forResource: fileName, withExtension: "json")     {
            do {
                let data = try Data(contentsOf: url)
                let decoder = JSONDecoder()
                let jsonData = try decoder.decode(T.self, from: data)
                return jsonData
            } catch {
                print("error:\(error)")
            }
        }
        return nil
    }
}

Swift 3.0, Xcode 8, iOS 10

 if let path = Bundle.main.url(forResource: "person", withExtension: "json") {

        do {
            let jsonData = try Data(contentsOf: path, options: .mappedIfSafe)
            do {
                if let jsonResult = try JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: jsonData, options: JSONSerialization.ReadingOptions(rawValue: 0)) as? NSDictionary {
                    if let personArray = jsonResult.value(forKey: "person") as? NSArray {
                        for (_, element) in personArray.enumerated() {
                            if let element = element as? NSDictionary {
                                let name = element.value(forKey: "name") as! String
                                let age = element.value(forKey: "age") as! String
                                let employed = element.value(forKey: "employed") as! String
                                print("Name: \(name),  age: \(age), employed: \(employed)")
                            }
                        }
                    }
                }
            } catch let error as NSError {
                print("Error: \(error)")
            }
        } catch let error as NSError {
            print("Error: \(error)")
        }
    }

输出:

Name: Bob,  age: 16, employed: No
Name: Vinny,  age: 56, employed: Yes

对于那些正在寻找可重用函数的人，我做了一个负责JSON加载的类。

import Foundation

class JSONLoader {
    static func load<T: Decodable>(resource: String, type: T.Type) -> T {
        guard let file = Bundle.main.url(forResource: resource, withExtension: nil) else {
            fatalError("Couldn't find \(resource) in main bundle.")
        }
        let data: Data
        do {
            data = try Data(contentsOf: file)
        } catch {
            fatalError("Couldn't load \(resource) from main bundle:\n\(error)")
        }
        do {
            return try JSONDecoder().decode(type, from: data)
        } catch {
            fatalError("Couldn't parse \(resource) as \(T.self):\n\(error)")
        }
    }
    
    static func load<T: Decodable>(resource: String) -> T {
        load(resource: resource, type: T.self)
    }
}
// Usage:
let employee1 = JSONLoader.load("employee.json", Employee.self)
let employee2: Employee = JSONLoader.load("employee.json")

遵循以下代码:

if let path = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource("test", ofType: "json")
{
    if let jsonData = NSData(contentsOfFile: path, options: .DataReadingMappedIfSafe, error: nil)
    {
        if let jsonResult: NSDictionary = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(jsonData, options: NSJSONReadingOptions.MutableContainers, error: nil) as? NSDictionary
        {
            if let persons : NSArray = jsonResult["person"] as? NSArray
            {
                // Do stuff
            }
        }
     }
}

数组“persons”将包含关键人物的所有数据。遍历获取它。

斯威夫特4.0:

if let path = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "test", ofType: "json") {
    do {
          let data = try Data(contentsOf: URL(fileURLWithPath: path), options: .mappedIfSafe)
          let jsonResult = try JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: data, options: .mutableLeaves)
          if let jsonResult = jsonResult as? Dictionary<String, AnyObject>, let person = jsonResult["person"] as? [Any] {
                    // do stuff
          }
      } catch {
           // handle error
      }
}

Swift 3.0的更新名称

根据阿比谢克和德鲁瓦的回答

func loadJson(forFilename fileName: String) -> NSDictionary? {

    if let url = Bundle.main.url(forResource: fileName, withExtension: "json") {
        if let data = NSData(contentsOf: url) {
            do {
                let dictionary = try JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: data as Data, options: .allowFragments) as? NSDictionary

                return dictionary
            } catch {
                print("Error!! Unable to parse  \(fileName).json")
            }
        }
        print("Error!! Unable to load  \(fileName).json")
    }

    return nil
}
