你的假设是错误的。只是因为调试器/Playground用方括号显示你的字典(这是Cocoa显示字典的方式)，这并不意味着这是JSON输出格式化的方式。

下面是将字符串字典转换为JSON的示例代码:

Swift 3版本:

import Foundation

let dictionary = ["aKey": "aValue", "anotherKey": "anotherValue"]
if let theJSONData = try? JSONSerialization.data(
    withJSONObject: dictionary,
    options: []) {
    let theJSONText = String(data: theJSONData,
                               encoding: .ascii)
    print("JSON string = \(theJSONText!)")
}

要以“漂亮打印”的格式显示上面的内容，你可以将选项行更改为:

    options: [.prettyPrinted]

或者在Swift 2语法中:

import Foundation
 
let dictionary = ["aKey": "aValue", "anotherKey": "anotherValue"]
let theJSONData = NSJSONSerialization.dataWithJSONObject(
  dictionary ,
  options: NSJSONWritingOptions(0),
  error: nil)
let theJSONText = NSString(data: theJSONData!,
  encoding: NSASCIIStringEncoding)
println("JSON string = \(theJSONText!)")

它的输出是

"JSON string = {"anotherKey":"anotherValue","aKey":"aValue"}"

或者用漂亮的格式:

{
  "anotherKey" : "anotherValue",
  "aKey" : "aValue"
}

正如您所期望的那样，在JSON输出中，字典用花括号括起来。

编辑:

在Swift 3/4语法中，上面的代码看起来像这样:

  let dictionary = ["aKey": "aValue", "anotherKey": "anotherValue"]
    if let theJSONData = try?  JSONSerialization.data(
      withJSONObject: dictionary,
      options: .prettyPrinted
      ),
      let theJSONText = String(data: theJSONData,
                               encoding: String.Encoding.ascii) {
          print("JSON string = \n\(theJSONText)")
    }
  }

在Swift 5.4中

extension Dictionary {
    var jsonData: Data? {
        return try? JSONSerialization.data(withJSONObject: self, options: [.prettyPrinted])
    }
    
    func toJSONString() -> String? {
        if let jsonData = jsonData {
            let jsonString = String(data: jsonData, encoding: .utf8)
            return jsonString
        }
        
        return nil
    }
}

把它作为变量的想法是，这样你就可以像这样重用它:

extension Dictionary {
    func decode<T:Codable>() throws -> T {
        return try JSONDecoder().decode(T.self, from: jsonData ?? Data())
    }
}

使用lldb

(lldb) p JSONSerialization.data(withJSONObject: notification.request.content.userInfo, options: [])
(Data) $R16 = 375 bytes
(lldb) p String(data: $R16!, encoding: .utf8)!
(String) $R18 = "{\"aps\": \"some_text\"}"

//or
p String(data: JSONSerialization.data(withJSONObject: notification.request.content.userInfo, options: [])!, encoding: .utf8)!
(String) $R4 = "{\"aps\": \"some_text\"}"

有时为了调试目的，有必要打印出服务器的响应。下面是我使用的函数:

extension Dictionary {

    var json: String {
        let invalidJson = "Not a valid JSON"
        do {
            let jsonData = try JSONSerialization.data(withJSONObject: self, options: .prettyPrinted)
            return String(bytes: jsonData, encoding: String.Encoding.utf8) ?? invalidJson
        } catch {
            return invalidJson
        }
    }

    func printJson() {
        print(json)
    }

}

使用示例:

(lldb) po dictionary.printJson()
{
  "InviteId" : 2,
  "EventId" : 13591,
  "Messages" : [
    {
      "SenderUserId" : 9514,
      "MessageText" : "test",
      "RecipientUserId" : 9470
    },
    {
      "SenderUserId" : 9514,
      "MessageText" : "test",
      "RecipientUserId" : 9470
    }
  ],
  "TargetUserId" : 9470,
  "InvitedUsers" : [
    9470
  ],
  "InvitingUserId" : 9514,
  "WillGo" : true,
  "DateCreated" : "2016-08-24 14:01:08 +00:00"
}

这对我来说很管用:

import SwiftyJSON

extension JSON {
    
    mutating func appendIfKeyValuePair(key: String, value: Any){
        if var dict = self.dictionaryObject {
            dict[key] = value
            self = JSON(dict)
        }
    }
}

用法:

var data: JSON = []

data.appendIfKeyValuePair(key: "myKey", value: "myValue")

你问题的答案如下:

斯威夫特2.1

     do {
          if let postData : NSData = try NSJSONSerialization.dataWithJSONObject(dictDataToBeConverted, options: NSJSONWritingOptions.PrettyPrinted){

          let json = NSString(data: postData, encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding)! as String
          print(json)}

        }
        catch {
           print(error)
        }
