Dots Example To run the example project, clone the repo, and run pod install from the Example directory first. Requirements iOS 8.0+ / macOS 10.10+ / tvOS 9.0+ / watchOS 2.0+ Xcode 8.0+ Swift 4.0+ Installation CocoaPods CocoaPods is a dependency manager for Cocoa projects. You can install it with the following command: $ gem install cocoapods CocoaPods 1.1+ is required to build StorageManager. To integrate StorageManager into your Xcode project using CocoaPods, specify it in your Podfile: source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git' platform :ios, '9.0' use_frameworks! target '<Your Target Name>' do pod 'Dots' end Then, run 8000 the following command: $ pod install Carthage Carthage is a decentralized dependency manager that builds your dependencies and provides you with binary frameworks. You can install Carthage with Homebrew using the following command: $ brew update $ brew install carthage To integrate StorageManager into your Xcode project using Carthage, specify it in your Cartfile: github "iAmrSalman/Dots" ~> 0.5.0 Run carthage update to build the framework and drag the built Dots.framework into your Xcode project. Swift Package Manager The Swift Package Manager is a tool for automating the distribution of Swift code and is integrated into the swift compiler. It is in early development, but StorageManager does support its use on supported platforms. Once you have your Swift package set up, adding StorageManager as a dependency is as easy as adding it to the dependencies value of your Package.swift. dependencies: [ .package(url: "https://github.com/iAmrSalman/Dots.git", from: "0.5.0") ] Usage Making a Request import Dots Dots.defualt.request("<URL>") { (dot: Dot) in print(dot.response) // HTTP URL response print(dot.data) // server data print(dot.error) // Errors from request processing print(dot.json) // JSON dictionary [String: Any] } HTTP Methods The HTTPMethod enumeration lists the HTTP methods: public enum HTTPMethod: String { case options = "OPTIONS" case get = "GET" case head = "HEAD" case post = "POST" case put = "PUT" case patch = "PATCH" case delete = "DELETE" case trace = "TRACE" case connect = "CONNECT" } These values can be passed as the method argument to the request Function: Dots.defualt.request("<URL>") // method defaults to `.get` Dots.defualt.request("<URL>", method: .post) Dots.defualt.request("<URL>", method: .put) Dots.defualt.request("<URL>", method: .delete) The request method parameter defaults to .get. Parameter Encoding GET Request With URL-Encoded Parameters let parameters: Parameters = ["foo": "bar"] Dots.defualt.request("<URL>", parameters: parameters) // defaults url encoding Dots.defualt.request("<URL>", parameters: parameters, encoding: .url) // <URL>?foo=bar POST Request With URL-Encoded Parameters let parameters: Parameters = [ "foo": "bar", "baz": ["a", 1], "qux": [ "x": 1, "y": 2, "z": 3 ] ] Dots.defualt.request("<URL>", method: .post, parameters: parameters) // defaults url encoding Dots.defualt.request("<URL>", method: .post, parameters: parameters, encoding: .url) //httpHeader: Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8 // HTTP body: foo=bar&baz[]=a&baz[]=1&qux[x]=1&qux[y]=2&qux[z]=3 POST Request With JSON-Encoded Parameters let parameters: Parameters = [ "foo": [1,2,3], "bar": [ "baz": "qux" ] ] Dots.defualt.request("<URL>", method: .post, parameters: parameters, encoding: .json) //HTTP header: Content-Type: application/json // HTTP body: {"foo": [1, 2, 3], "bar": {"baz": "qux"}} HTTP Headers Adding a custom HTTP header to a Request is supported directly in the global request method. This makes it easy to attach HTTP headers to a Request. let headers: HTTPHeaders = [ "Authorization": "Basic QWxhZGRpbjpvcGVuIHNlc2FtZQ==", "Accept": "application/json" ] Dots.defualt.request("<URL>", headers: headers) Concurrency Choosing between Asynchronous and Synchronous is supported Dots.defualt.request("<URL>", concurrency: .async) // concurrency defaults to `.async` Dots.defualt.request("<URL>", concurrency: .sync) Maximum concurrent requests Customizing Maximum concurrent requests executing simultaneously is supported. The defualt is checking if device is on cellular connection, maximum concurrent requests is restricted to 2, while Wi-Fi is executing up to 6 simultaneous requests. let customDots = Dots(maxConcurrentOperation: <Int>) customDots.request("<URL>") Extensions UIImageView imageView.setImage(withURL: "<URL>") Author Amr Salman, iamrsalman@gmail.com License Dots is available under the MIT license.
