How to make API call in swiftUI - api

Question

I am trying to use PokeApi to make a Pokedex app. I just started swift a couple of days ago so I'm following a tutorial here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UsO-84Xnhww. The tutorial doesn't seem to work, and I don't know how to access the PokeAPI in order to make this app. My code is posted below:
ContentView:
import SwiftUI
struct ContentView: View {
#State var searchText = ""
var pokemon = [Pokemon]()
var body: some View {
NavigationView {
List{
ForEach(searchText == "" ? pokemon : pokemon.filter({
$0.name.contains(searchText.lowercased())
})) { entry in
HStack {
Circle() //Pokemon Image
NavigationLink("\(entry.name)".capitalized, destination: Text("Detail view for \(entry.name)"))
}
}
}
.onAppear {
PokemonManager().getData() { pokemon in self.pokemon = pokemon
for pokemon in pokemon {
print(pokemon.name)
}
}
}
.searchable(text: $searchText)
.navigationTitle("PokePass")
}
}
}
struct ContentView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
static var previews: some View {
ContentView()
}
}
PokemonAPI:
import Foundation
struct CurrentPokemon: Codable {
var results: [Pokemon]
}
struct Pokemon: Codable, Identifiable {
var id = UUID()
var name: String
var url: String
}
class PokemonManager {
func getData(completion: #escaping ([Pokemon]) -> ()) {
guard let url = URL(string: "https://pokeapi.co/api/v2/pokemon?limit=151") else {
return
}
URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: url) { (data, _, _) in
guard let data = data else { return }
let pokemonList = try! JSONDecoder().decode(CurrentPokemon.self, from: data)
DispatchQueue.main.async {
completion(pokemonList.results)
}
}
.resume()
}
}

Answer 1

Use let id = UUID() in Pokemon, this will avoid decoding it, and that is what you want, since id is not part of the data.
You can also use this approach:
struct Pokemon: Codable, Identifiable {
var id = UUID()
var name: String
var url: String
enum CodingKeys: String, CodingKey {
case name, url
}
}
EDIT-1
and use #State var pokemon = [Pokemon]() in ContentView
