Swift - Get file size from url

Question

i am using documentPicker to get url path of any document and then uploaded to the database. I am choosing file (pdf, txt ..) , the upload is working but i want to limit the siz

Answer 1

First of all, in the file system you get the path of a URL with the path property.

self.path = url.path

But you don't need that at all. You can retrieve the file size from the URL directly:

self.path = String(describing: self.file!) // url to string

do {
    let resources = try url.resourceValues(forKeys:[.fileSizeKey])
    let fileSize = resources.fileSize!
    print ("\(fileSize)")
} catch {
    print("Error: \(error)")
}
