I read The Programming Language Swift by Apple in iBooks, but cannot figure out how to make an HTTP request (something like cURL) in Swift. Do I need to import Obj-C classes
Check Below Codes :
1. SynchonousRequest
Swift 1.2
let urlPath: String = "YOUR_URL_HERE"
var url: NSURL = NSURL(string: urlPath)!
var request1: NSURLRequest = NSURLRequest(URL: url)
var response: AutoreleasingUnsafeMutablePointer=nil
var dataVal: NSData = NSURLConnection.sendSynchronousRequest(request1, returningResponse: response, error:nil)!
var err: NSError
println(response)
var jsonResult: NSDictionary = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(dataVal, options: NSJSONReadingOptions.MutableContainers, error: &err) as? NSDictionary
println("Synchronous\(jsonResult)")
Swift 2.0 +
let urlPath: String = "YOUR_URL_HERE"
let url: NSURL = NSURL(string: urlPath)!
let request1: NSURLRequest = NSURLRequest(URL: url)
let response: AutoreleasingUnsafeMutablePointer=nil
do{
let dataVal = try NSURLConnection.sendSynchronousRequest(request1, returningResponse: response)
print(response)
do {
if let jsonResult = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(dataVal, options: []) as? NSDictionary {
print("Synchronous\(jsonResult)")
}
} catch let error as NSError {
print(error.localizedDescription)
}
}catch let error as NSError
{
print(error.localizedDescription)
}
2. AsynchonousRequest
Swift 1.2
let urlPath: String = "YOUR_URL_HERE"
var url: NSURL = NSURL(string: urlPath)!
var request1: NSURLRequest = NSURLRequest(URL: url)
let queue:NSOperationQueue = NSOperationQueue()
NSURLConnection.sendAsynchronousRequest(request1, queue: queue, completionHandler:{ (response: NSURLResponse!, data: NSData!, error: NSError!) -> Void in
var err: NSError
var jsonResult: NSDictionary = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data, options: NSJSONReadingOptions.MutableContainers, error: nil) as NSDictionary
println("Asynchronous\(jsonResult)")
})
Swift 2.0 +
let urlPath: String = "YOUR_URL_HERE"
let url: NSURL = NSURL(string: urlPath)!
let request1: NSURLRequest = NSURLRequest(URL: url)
let queue:NSOperationQueue = NSOperationQueue()
NSURLConnection.sendAsynchronousRequest(request1, queue: queue, completionHandler:{ (response: NSURLResponse?, data: NSData?, error: NSError?) -> Void in
do {
if let jsonResult = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data!, options: []) as? NSDictionary {
print("ASynchronous\(jsonResult)")
}
} catch let error as NSError {
print(error.localizedDescription)
}
})
3. As usual URL connection
Swift 1.2
var dataVal = NSMutableData()
let urlPath: String = "YOUR URL HERE"
var url: NSURL = NSURL(string: urlPath)!
var request: NSURLRequest = NSURLRequest(URL: url)
var connection: NSURLConnection = NSURLConnection(request: request, delegate: self, startImmediately: true)!
connection.start()
Then
func connection(connection: NSURLConnection!, didReceiveData data: NSData!){
self.dataVal?.appendData(data)
}
func connectionDidFinishLoading(connection: NSURLConnection!)
{
var error: NSErrorPointer=nil
var jsonResult: NSDictionary = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(dataVal!, options: NSJSONReadingOptions.MutableContainers, error: error) as NSDictionary
println(jsonResult)
}
Swift 2.0 +
var dataVal = NSMutableData()
let urlPath: String = "YOUR URL HERE"
var url: NSURL = NSURL(string: urlPath)!
var request: NSURLRequest = NSURLRequest(URL: url)
var connection: NSURLConnection = NSURLConnection(request: request, delegate: self, startImmediately: true)!
connection.start()
Then
func connection(connection: NSURLConnection!, didReceiveData data: NSData!){
dataVal.appendData(data)
}
func connectionDidFinishLoading(connection: NSURLConnection!)
{
do {
if let jsonResult = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(dataVal, options: []) as? NSDictionary {
print(jsonResult)
}
} catch let error as NSError {
print(error.localizedDescription)
}
}
4. Asynchonous POST Request
Swift 1.2
let urlPath: String = "YOUR URL HERE"
var url: NSURL = NSURL(string: urlPath)!
var request1: NSMutableURLRequest = NSMutableURLRequest(URL: url)
request1.HTTPMethod = "POST"
var stringPost="deviceToken=123456" // Key and Value
let data = stringPost.dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding)
request1.timeoutInterval = 60
request1.HTTPBody=data
request1.HTTPShouldHandleCookies=false
let queue:NSOperationQueue = NSOperationQueue()
NSURLConnection.sendAsynchronousRequest(request1, queue: queue, completionHandler:{ (response: NSURLResponse!, data: NSData!, error: NSError!) -> Void in
var err: NSError
var jsonResult: NSDictionary = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data, options: NSJSONReadingOptions.MutableContainers, error: nil) as NSDictionary
println("AsSynchronous\(jsonResult)")
})
Swift 2.0 +
let urlPath: String = "YOUR URL HERE"
let url: NSURL = NSURL(string: urlPath)!
let request1: NSMutableURLRequest = NSMutableURLRequest(URL: url)
request1.HTTPMethod = "POST"
let stringPost="deviceToken=123456" // Key and Value
let data = stringPost.dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding)
request1.timeoutInterval = 60
request1.HTTPBody=data
request1.HTTPShouldHandleCookies=false
let queue:NSOperationQueue = NSOperationQueue()
NSURLConnection.sendAsynchronousRequest(request1, queue: queue, completionHandler:{ (response: NSURLResponse?, data: NSData?, error: NSError?) -> Void in
do {
if let jsonResult = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data!, options: []) as? NSDictionary {
print("ASynchronous\(jsonResult)")
}
} catch let error as NSError {
print(error.localizedDescription)
}
})
5. Asynchonous GET Request
Swift 1.2
let urlPath: String = "YOUR URL HERE"
var url: NSURL = NSURL(string: urlPath)!
var request1: NSMutableURLRequest = NSMutableURLRequest(URL: url)
request1.HTTPMethod = "GET"
request1.timeoutInterval = 60
let queue:NSOperationQueue = NSOperationQueue()
NSURLConnection.sendAsynchronousRequest(request1, queue: queue, completionHandler:{ (response: NSURLResponse!, data: NSData!, error: NSError!) -> Void in
var err: NSError
var jsonResult: NSDictionary = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data, options: NSJSONReadingOptions.MutableContainers, error: nil) as NSDictionary
println("AsSynchronous\(jsonResult)")
})
Swift 2.0 +
let urlPath: String = "YOUR URL HERE"
let url: NSURL = NSURL(string: urlPath)!
let request1: NSMutableURLRequest = NSMutableURLRequest(URL: url)
request1.HTTPMethod = "GET"
let queue:NSOperationQueue = NSOperationQueue()
NSURLConnection.sendAsynchronousRequest(request1, queue: queue, completionHandler:{ (response: NSURLResponse?, data: NSData?, error: NSError?) -> Void in
do {
if let jsonResult = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data!, options: []) as? NSDictionary {
print("ASynchronous\(jsonResult)")
}
} catch let error as NSError {
print(error.localizedDescription)
}
})
6. Image(File) Upload
Swift 2.0 +
let mainURL = "YOUR_URL_HERE"
let url = NSURL(string: mainURL)
let request = NSMutableURLRequest(URL: url!)
let boundary = "78876565564454554547676"
request.addValue("multipart/form-data; boundary=\(boundary)", forHTTPHeaderField: "Content-Type")
request.HTTPMethod = "POST" // POST OR PUT What you want
let session = NSURLSession(configuration:NSURLSessionConfiguration.defaultSessionConfiguration(), delegate: nil, delegateQueue: nil)
let imageData = UIImageJPEGRepresentation(UIImage(named: "Test.jpeg")!, 1)
var body = NSMutableData()
body.appendData("--\(boundary)\r\n".dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding)!)
// Append your parameters
body.appendData("Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"name\"\r\n\r\n".dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding)!)
body.appendData("PREMKUMAR\r\n".dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding, allowLossyConversion: true)!)
body.appendData("--\(boundary)\r\n".dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding)!)
body.appendData("Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"description\"\r\n\r\n".dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding)!)
body.appendData("IOS_DEVELOPER\r\n".dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding, allowLossyConversion: true)!)
body.appendData("--\(boundary)\r\n".dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding)!)
// Append your Image/File Data
var imageNameval = "HELLO.jpg"
body.appendData("--\(boundary)\r\n".dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding)!)
body.appendData("Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"profile_photo\"; filename=\"\(imageNameval)\"\r\n".dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding)!)
body.appendData("Content-Type: image/jpeg\r\n\r\n".dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding)!)
body.appendData(imageData!)
body.appendData("\r\n".dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding)!)
body.appendData("--\(boundary)--\r\n".dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding)!)
request.HTTPBody = body
let dataTask = session.dataTaskWithRequest(request) { (data, response, error) -> Void in
if error != nil {
//handle error
}
else {
let outputString : NSString = NSString(data:data!, encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding)!
print("Response:\(outputString)")
}
}
dataTask.resume()
