I am having trouble with RESTKIT and mapping the following JSON via RESTKit .20.1. I have a nested JSON array and I am trying to map via the RelationshipMapper. I am able to map the 5 chart_data object successfully but the related nested chart_datatum objects do not map to the ChartDataDetails class. All of the properties are blank.

I would like the following object structure.

Alert Instance

      Array of ChartData objects

          Each ChartData object should contain 1 ChartDataDetails object <---- this object is blank

Please see the link at the bottom for the screenshot of the XCode Debugger for the current state.

Can someone please provide some assistance?

Thanks, G

[chartDataMapping addAttributeMappingsFromDictionary:@{
     @"chart_data":@"chartData"}];

RKObjectMapping* alertInstanceMapping = [RKObjectMapping mappingForClass:[AlertInstance class]];
[alertInstanceMapping addAttributeMappingsFromDictionary:@{
     @"alert_template_id": @"alertTemplateId",
     @"alert_time_period": @"alertTimePeriod",
 }];

[alertInstanceMapping addPropertyMapping:[RKRelationshipMapping relationshipMappingFromKeyPath:@"chart_data"
                                                                                    toKeyPath:@"chartData"

EDIT:

Ok I figured it out.

I needed to chain the ChartDetailsMapping to the ChartData as follows.

[chartDataMapping addPropertyMapping:[RKRelationshipMapping relationshipMappingFromKeyPath:@"chart_datum"
                                                                                 toKeyPath:@"chartDataDetails"
                                                                                 withMapping:chartDataDetailMapping]];

[alertInstanceMapping addPropertyMapping:[RKRelationshipMapping relationshipMappingFromKeyPath:@"chart_data"
                                                                                     toKeyPath:@"chartData"
                                                                                   withMapping:chartDataMapping]];
