title: SwiftyJSON to read local file
body: <p>So my app is using a JSON API response to read some data from server. Since the API is not yet ready i want to use a sample JSON file which is stored in my app itself. Since all my code uses SwiftyJSON i want to stick to it for the local file.
  I am doing the following in my ViewDidLoad method and somehow this end result is a blank array. Do you know what should i change in this code to make it work?</p>
  
  <pre><code>//Direct JSON
          if let path = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource("XXYYXZZfile", ofType: "json")
          {
              do{
                  let pathAsData = try NSData(contentsOfFile: path, options: NSDataReadingOptions.DataReadingMappedIfSafe)
                  let json = JSON(pathAsData)
                  print(json)
  
              } catch{
                  print("Some error")
              }
  
          }
  </code></pre>
