how to retrieve complete document body from couchbase lite for deserialisation into object

[Tim Clarke]

We have JSON documents in a couchbase bucket. This is shadowed into sync_gateway bucket which is then pulled down into Couchbase lite using a pull replication. This all works nicely.

Imagine my couchbase document looks like this

   

{
   "colour": "green",
   "count": "135"
}

When I retrieve the doc using Couchbase Lite then it has a properties dictionary with two entries, "colour" and "count". 

That's great, but how do I access the document body as a JSON string that I can deserialise into an object?

thanks!

Um, I guess you can use NSJSONSerialization to encode the NSDictionary to JSON data. Which you can then deserialize again. But that seems kind of pointless. Maybe I'm misunderstanding the question?
