I am trying to follow this tutorial and connect to a JSON api using Swift and NSURLConnection. I can see that it is hitting the url but the connectionDidFinishLoading does not seem to fire.
import UIKit
class Remote: NSObject {
var host = "http://localhost:3000"
var query = String()
var data: NSMutableData = NSMutableData()
func connect(query:NSString) {
self.query = query
var url = self.document()
var conn = NSURLConnection(request: url, delegate: self, startImmediately: true)
}
func endpoint() -> NSURL {
var query = self.host + self.query
return NSURL(string: query)
}
func document() -> NSURLRequest {
return NSURLRequest( URL: self.endpoint() )
}
func connection(didReceiveResponse: NSURLConnection!, didReceiveResponse response: NSURLResponse!) {
// Recieved a new request, clear out the data object
self.data = NSMutableData()
}
func connection(connection: NSURLConnection!, didReceiveData conData: NSData!) {
// Append the recieved chunk of data to our data object
self.data.appendData(conData)
}
func connectionDidFinishLoading(connection: NSURLConnection!) {
// Request complete, self.data should now hold the resulting info
// Convert the retrieved data in to an object through JSON deserialization
var err: NSError
var jsonResult: NSDictionary = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(self.data, options: NSJSONReadingOptions.MutableContainers, error: nil) as NSDictionary
println(jsonResult.count)
}
}
// Excecute the code
var remote = Remote()
remote.connect("/apis")
At this point I am just trying to see the data that is returned. I would like to hook it into a view controller once I am sure this is working. Is there something wrong with doing it this way and that is causing an issue?
Check Below Codes :
1. SynchronousRequest
Swift 1.2
let urlPath: String = "YOUR_URL_HERE"
var url: NSURL = NSURL(string: urlPath)!
var request1: NSURLRequest = NSURLRequest(URL: url)
var response: AutoreleasingUnsafeMutablePointer<NSURLResponse?>=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<NSURLResponse?>=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. Asynchronous 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. Asynchronous 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()
7. GET,POST,Etc Swift 3.0 +
let request = NSMutableURLRequest(url: URL(string: "YOUR_URL_HERE" ,param: param))!,
cachePolicy: .useProtocolCachePolicy,
timeoutInterval:60)
request.httpMethod = "POST" // POST ,GET, PUT What you want
let session = URLSession.shared
let dataTask = session.dataTask(with: request as URLRequest) {data,response,error in
do {
if let jsonResult = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data!, options: []) as? NSDictionary {
print("ASynchronous\(jsonResult)")
}
} catch let error as NSError {
print(error.localizedDescription)
}
}
dataTask.resume()
An abbreviated version of your code worked for me,
class Remote: NSObject {
var data = NSMutableData()
func connect(query:NSString) {
var url = NSURL.URLWithString("http://www.google.com")
var request = NSURLRequest(URL: url)
var conn = NSURLConnection(request: request, delegate: self, startImmediately: true)
}
func connection(didReceiveResponse: NSURLConnection!, didReceiveResponse response: NSURLResponse!) {
println("didReceiveResponse")
}
func connection(connection: NSURLConnection!, didReceiveData conData: NSData!) {
self.data.appendData(conData)
}
func connectionDidFinishLoading(connection: NSURLConnection!) {
println(self.data)
}
deinit {
println("deiniting")
}
}
This is the code I used in the calling class,
class ViewController: UIViewController {
var remote = Remote()
@IBAction func downloadTest(sender : UIButton) {
remote.connect("/apis")
}
}
You didn't specify in your question where you had this code,
var remote = Remote()
remote.connect("/apis")
If var is a local variable, then the Remote class will be deallocated right after the connect(query:NSString) method finishes, but before the data returns. As you can see by my code, I usually implement reinit (or dealloc up to now) just to make sure when my instances go away. You should add that to your Remote class to see if that's your problem.
Swift 3.0
AsynchonousRequest
let urlString = "http://heyhttp.org/me.json"
var request = URLRequest(url: URL(string: urlString)!)
let session = URLSession.shared
session.dataTask(with: request) {data, response, error in
if error != nil {
print(error!.localizedDescription)
return
}
do {
let jsonResult: NSDictionary? = try JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: data!, options: JSONSerialization.ReadingOptions.mutableContainers) as? NSDictionary
print("Synchronous\(jsonResult)")
} catch {
print(error.localizedDescription)
}
}.resume()
