How to encode object with AnyCodable

[Steven4294]

I am using Vapor, though I don't believe that matters. I'm trying to pass in an object something that conforms to AnyEncodable See code:

let dic: [String: AnyEncodable] = [
    "number": 1,
    "string": "2020-10-01",
    "isBool": true,
    "post": Post(payload: "")
]
try req.content.encode(dic, as: .urlEncodedForm)

And my post object

struct Post {
    let payload: String
}

How do I make Post conform to AnyEncodable, so I can pass in an object as a value in my dictionary like such?

Additionally, I've tried:

KLPayload(
            token: "",
            time: 0,
            customer_properties: [
                "email": checkout.email
            ]
)

struct KLPayload: Encodable  {
    let token: String
    let time: Int
    let customer_properties: [String: AnyEncodable]
}

And I get Cannot convert value of type 'String' to expected dictionary value type 'AnyEncodable'

Just mark your struct as Encodable.

struct Post: Encodable {
    let payload: String
}

Due to the type of checkout.email is String, you cannot insert it directly without wrapping with the AnyEncodable initialiser.

KLPayload(
    token: "",
    time: 0,
    customer_properties: [
        "email": .init(checkout.email)
    ]
)

struct KLPayload: Encodable {
    let token: String
    let time: Int
    let customer_properties: [String: AnyEncodable]
}
