Swift extension to bridge between Eureka datatypes and Firebase datatypes

Eureka+Firebase.swift

import Foundation
import Eureka // https://github.com/xmartlabs/Eureka

public extension Form {
    public func valuesForFirebase(includeHidden: Bool = false) -> [String: Any?] {
        let rows = includeHidden ? self.allRows : self.rows
        return rows.filter({ $0.tag != nil })
            .reduce([:], { (dictionary, row) -> [String: Any?] in
            var dictionary = dictionary
            dictionary[row.tag!] = row.firebaseValue
            return dictionary
        })
    }
}

public extension Dictionary {
    func valuesForEureka(forForm form: Form) -> [String: Any?] {
        return self.reduce([:], { (dictionary, tuple) -> [String: Any?] in
            var dictionary = dictionary
            let row = form.rowBy(tag: tuple.key as! String)
            if row is SwitchRow || row is CheckRow {
                let typedValue = tuple.value as! Int
                dictionary[tuple.key as! String] = (typedValue == 1) ? true : false
            } else if row is DateRow || row is TimeRow || row is DateTimeRow {
                let typedValue = tuple.value as! TimeInterval
                dictionary[tuple.key as! String] = Date(timeIntervalSince1970: typedValue)
            } else {
                dictionary[tuple.key as! String] = tuple.value
            }
            return dictionary
        })
    }
}

private extension BaseRow {
    var firebaseValue: Any? {
        get {
            if self is SwitchRow || self is CheckRow {
                return (self.baseValue as! Bool) ? 1:0
            } else if self is DateRow || self is TimeRow || self is DateTimeRow {
                return (self.baseValue as! Date).timeIntervalSince1970
            } else {
                return self.baseValue
            }
        }
    }
}

If I try to upload to firebase via ImageRow, how should I go about doing that?

@jtaytshungman So sorry I missed your message! I didn't get any notification. Anyway, I'm afraid I've been out of touch with iOS dev and the Firebase SDK for far too long and I won't be able to provide much help with this.

You can add a new if statement for the Dictionary and BaseRow extension to map ImageRows to whatever Firebase is using to contain images.

Hey @liaujianjie, does this convert Date to String? If so, how does one call/ use this extension you made? Can you please give us an example of a dictionary maybe?
