In your APIController:


Modify the protocol to understand arrays:
protocol APIControllerProtocol {
    func didRecieveAPIResults(results: NSDictionary)
    func didRecieveAPIResults(results: NSArray)
}

Add a get function to perform arbitrary gets on URLs

func get(path: String) {
        let url: NSURL = NSURL(string: path)
        let request: NSURLRequest = NSURLRequest(URL: url)
        
        NSURLConnection.sendAsynchronousRequest(request, queue: NSOperationQueue.mainQueue(), completionHandler: {(response: NSURLResponse!,data: NSData!,error: NSError!) -> Void in
            if error? {
                println("ERROR: \(error.localizedDescription)")
            }
            else {
                var error: NSError?
                //let jsonResult = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data, options: NSJSONReadingOptions.MutableContainers, error: &error)
                let dictResult = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data, options: NSJSONReadingOptions.MutableContainers, error: &error) as? NSDictionary
                let arrResults = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data, options: NSJSONReadingOptions.MutableContainers, error: &error) as? NSArray
                // Now send the JSON result to our delegate object
                if error? {
                    println("HTTP Error: \(error?.localizedDescription)")
                }
                else {
                    println("Results recieved")
                    if let results = dictResult {
                        self.delegate?.didRecieveAPIResults(results)
                    }
                    else {
                        if let results = arrResults {
                            self.delegate?.didRecieveAPIResults(results)
                        }
                        else {
                            var strResponse = NSString(data: data, encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding)
                            println("Could not deserialize json, is it valid? \(strResponse)")
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
            })
    }
    
    
    
    
Call it:

self.api.get("http://ec2-54-188-237-219.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com/signals/application/1")




Show the results in the callback:

func didRecieveAPIResults(results: NSArray) {
        //println(results)
        for itemInfo in results {
            if let itemDict = itemInfo as? NSDictionary {
                println(itemDict["title"])
            }
        }
    }
