Answer 1

Another approach for my project. The ServerTrustPolicyManager is an open class, and it's serverTrustPolicy function is open too. So it can be override.

// For Swift 3 and Alamofire 4.0
open class MyServerTrustPolicyManager: ServerTrustPolicyManager {

    // Override this function in order to trust any self-signed https
    open override func serverTrustPolicy(forHost host: String) -> ServerTrustPolicy? {
        return ServerTrustPolicy.disableEvaluation

        // or, if `host` contains substring, return `disableEvaluation`
        // Ex: host contains `my_company.com`, then trust it.
    }
}

Then,

    let trustPolicies = MyServerTrustPolicyManager(policies: [:])
    let manager = Alamofire.SessionManager(configuration: sessionConfig, delegate: SessionDelegate(), serverTrustPolicyManager: trustPolicies)

UPDATE @2018,01

In order to trigger the ServerTrustPolicyManager, the project's Info.plist needs to be configured. I found the solution, detail at this post, cnoon's comment @ 1 Nov 2015.

For example, if there are urls named site1.foo.com, site2.foo.com, .... Then add App Transport Security Settings -> Exception Domains -> foo.com dictionary, with following entries.

• NSExceptionRequiresForwardSecrecy : NO
• NSExceptionAllowsInsecureHTTPLoads : YES
• NSIncludesSubdomains : YES

More detail you can refer the post.
