Prefer the MAS? Here you go!

Objectify is a Mac® application for Objective-C developers that creates Cocoa class implementations from JSON. Whether you're working with web services or building everyday classes, Objectify's here to save you time.

JSON is rapidly becoming the de facto standard data serialization format for web APIs, used in thousands of applications. Creating model classes based on this content has been a repetitive chore that invites bugs and heartache.

Until now.

Objectify saves you time and effort by spinning through any JSON content you give it, building customizable models that can be exported as Objective-C header and implementation files, ready to be dragged into your editor of choice. If you're a user of the mighty Accessorizer, Objectify can use it for code generation so all your style preferences are already taken care of!

Clever developers have noticed that this also makes Objectify a great everyday tool. Just type in some JSON that models your next class, and in seconds you're good to go with working code based on your favorite templates.

Key Features

Merges Array Members

JSON often contains arrays of like objects. When these objects omit unset attributes, it can be tough to create an accurate model. Objectify can merge array members to create a complete model so you won't lose track of rare attributes.

Fits in Your Workflow

Accessorizer is a key part of many top developers' workflows. Objectify was designed from Day One to send class ivar declarations to it, so you don't have to change your workflow if you don't want to.

Plays Well With Others

Objectify is Services-aware. You can use a context menu or key combo to easily send JSON text or URLs to it from any application. Try dragging your classes directly to Xcode!

Save Your Work

If you need step away while customizing your new models, or want to commit a snapshot to your SCM of choice, you can save your work into an .objson file to pick up where you left off later.

Instant Instances

Just add your (parsed) content and you're good to go! Model class implementations can now be generated with methods that will create a new instance of that class populated with data from an NSDictionary.

Your Code, Your Style

Objectify can apply prefixes to class names, prefixes and suffixes to ivars, or add NSCoding compliance. If you have Accessorizer 2.9.3 or later, Objectify will "hand off" code generation to it so your code stays consistent.

Our Templates or Yours?

While Objectify has its own simple templates for header and implementation files, it can also use your favorite Xcode®-compatible file templates — whether stock or with your own secret sauce.

Flexible Input

There are plenty of ways to get your JSON into Objectify. It can fetch content from URLs, other applications, local .json files, or you can type your content in manually.
