Loading/Downloading image from URL on Swift

Question

I\'d like to load an image from a URL in my application, so I first tried with Objective-C and it worked, however, with Swift, I\'ve a compilation error:

Answer 1

class func downloadImageFromUrl(with urlStr: String, andCompletionHandler:@escaping (_ result:Bool) -> Void) {
        guard let url = URL(string: urlStr) else {
            andCompletionHandler(false)
            return
        }
        DispatchQueue.global(qos: .background).async {
            URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: url, completionHandler: { (data, response, error) -> Void in
                if error == nil {
                    let httpURLResponse = response as? HTTPURLResponse
                    Utils.print( "status code ID : \(String(describing: httpURLResponse?.statusCode))")
                    if httpURLResponse?.statusCode == 200 {
                        if let data = data {
                            if let image = UIImage(data: data) {
                                ImageCaching.sharedInterface().setImage(image, withID: url.absoluteString as NSString)
                                DispatchQueue.main.async {
                                    andCompletionHandler(true)
                                }
                            }else {
                                andCompletionHandler(false)
                            }
                        }else {
                            andCompletionHandler(false)
                        }
                    }else {
                        andCompletionHandler(false)
                    }
                }else {
                    andCompletionHandler(false)
                }
            }).resume()
        }
    }

I have created a simple class function in my Utils.swift class for calling that method you can simply accesss by classname.methodname and your images are saved in NSCache using ImageCaching.swift class

Utils.downloadImageFromUrl(with: URL, andCompletionHandler: { (isDownloaded) in
                            if isDownloaded {
                                if  let image = ImageCaching.sharedInterface().getImage(URL as NSString) {
                                    self.btnTeam.setBackgroundImage(image, for: .normal)
                                }
                            }else {
                                DispatchQueue.main.async {
                                    self.btnTeam.setBackgroundImage(#imageLiteral(resourceName: "com"), for: .normal)
                                }
                            }
                        })

Happy Codding. Cheers:)
