Alamofire returns incorrect encoding

Question

I use

Alamofire.request(.GET, "http://") .responseString { _, _, string, _ in println(string) } 

to make a request for receipt. The response contains Cyrillic characters, and in responseString they look like this (top right):

How do I fix the encoding?

Answer 1

You can use NSUTF8StringEncoding using the Alamofire responseString method:

 Alamofire.request(.GET, "http://my1test.ru/applejesus.php?task=getCategory&categoryNumber=1") .responseString(encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding) { (request, response, string, error) -> Void in if let result = string { println(result) } } 

Result:

Answer 2

Now you should use responseString(encoding: String.Encoding.utf8) instead
