NerdzNetworking
is a wrapper on top of URLSession
and URLRequest
to simplify creating and managing network requests written on Swift
language.
You need to define request.
class LoginWithFacebookRequest: Request {
typealias ResponseObjectType = User
typealias ErrorType = AuthError
let path = "login/facebook"
let methong = .post
let body: RequestBody?
init(token: String) {
body = .params(
[
"token": token
]
)
}
}
And then just use it. (each call is optional and can be skipped if needed)
LoginWithFacebookRequest(token: fbToken)
.execute()
.onSuccess { user in
...
}
.onFail { error in
...
}
.onStart { operation in
...
}
.onProgress { progress in
...
}
.onDebug { info in
...
}
}
The main ideology for creating NerdzNetworking
library was to maximaly split networking into small pieces.
The ideal scenario would be to have a separate class/structure per each request. This should help easily navigate and search information for specific request in files structure.
Another flow that library truing to follow - predefined options for using and simplicity of using.
We are trying to use generic types on top of protocols, as well as enumerations instead of raw values. As an example - predefined headers like Content-Type
or Accept
. Instead of giving a possibility to put any value, we have defined and enumerations that limits possbie input only to predefined scenarios like .application(.json)
.
To make it simple, previously mentioned headers already have .application(.json)
value preselected for you, so in case you are using standard REST API - everything ready from the box.
First of all you need to setup your endpoint that will be used later on for executing requests. To do that - you should be using Endpoint
class.
Endpoint
class will collect all general settings for performing requests. You can change any parameter at any time you want.
let endpoint = Endpoint(baseUrl: myBaseUrl)
endpoint.headers = defaultHeaders // Specifying some default headers like OS, device language, device model, etc.
endpoint.headers.authToken = .bearer(tokenString) // Specifying user token
After creating your endpoint, you can mark it as a default
, so every request will pick it up automatically.
Endpoint.default = endpoint
You can change default
endpoint based on configuration or environment you need.
To create a request you should implement Request
protocol. You can or have separate class per each request or an enum
.
class MyRequest: Request {
typealias ResponseObjectType = MyExpectedResponse
typealias ErrorType = MyUnexpectedError
let path = "my/path/to/backend" // Required
let methong = .get // Optional
let queryParams = [("key", "value")] // Optional
let body = .params(["key", "value"]) // Optional
let headers = [RequestHeaderKey("key"): "value", .contentType: "application/json"] // Optional
let timeout = 60 // Optional, by defauld will be picked from Endpoint
let endpoint = myEndpoint // Optional, by default will be a Endpoint.default
}
This is just an example and probably you will not have all parameters required and static. To have dynamicaly created request - you can just use initializers that willl be taking dynamic parameters required for request. As an example - some dynamic bodyParams or dynamic path.
You can use buit in class DefaultRequest
to perform requests without a need to create a separate class.
let myRequest = DefaultRequest<MyExpectedResponse, MyUnexpectedError>(
path: "my/path/to/backend",
method: .get,
queryParams: [("key", "value")],
body: .params(["key", "value"]),
headers: [RequestHeaderKey("key"): "value", .contentType: "application/json"],
timeout: 60,
responseConverter: myResponseConverter,
errorConverter: myErrorConverter,
endpoint: myEndpoint)
NerdzNetworking
library also provide an easy way of creation and execution of multipart form-data requests. You just need to implement MultipartFormDataRequest
instead of Request
protocol or use DefaultMultipartFormDataRequest
class.
In addition to Request
fields you will need to provide files
field of MultipartFile
protocol instances. You can implement this protocol or use DefaultMultipartFile
class.
class MyMultipartRequest: MultipartFormDataRequest {
// Same fields as in Request example
let files: [MultipartFile] = [
DefaultMultipartFile(resource: fileData, mime: .image(.png), fileName: "avatar1"),
DefaultMultipartFile(resource: fileUrl, mime: .audio(.mp4), fileName: "song"),
DefaultMultipartFile(resource: filePath, mime: .image(.jpeg), fileName: "avatar2")
]
}
To exucute request you can use next constructions:
myRequest.execute()
: will executemyRequest
onEndpoint.default
myRequest.execute(on: myEndpoint)
: will executemyRequest
onmyEndpoint
myEndpoint.execute(myRequest)
: will executemyRequest
onmyEndpoint
To handle execution process you can use futures-style methods after execute
method called. (every method is optional, so use only those you really need)
myRequest
.execute()
.responseOn(.main) // Response will be returned in `.main` queue
.retryOnFail(false) // If this request will fail - system will not try to rerun it again
.onStart { requestOperation in
// Will be called when request will start and return request operation that allow to control request during the execution
}
.onProgress { progress in
// Will provide a progress of request execution. Useful for multipart uploading requests
}
.onSuccess { response in
// Will return a response object specified in request under `ResponseType`
}
.onFail { error in
// Will return `ErrorResponse` that might contain `ErrorType` specified in request
}
.onDebug { info in
// Will return `DebugInfo` that contain a list of useful information for debugging request failure
}
For now NerdzNetworking
library supports only native Codable
mapping. Tutorial.
NerdzNetworking
supports response converters that might convert response before mapping process. Might be useful if case you need to adopt response data to internal model, or to bypass parent object to map only chileds.
You can also provide a response converters to convert some unpropertly returned responses beĐ°ore mapping into expected response starts. The responsible protocol for this is ResponseJsonConverter
.
Response converter should be specified in Request
class under responseConverter
(success) or/and errorConverter
(fail) fields.
You can have your own converters that implement ResponseJsonConverter
protocol, or use built in implementations: KeyPathResponseConverter
, ClosureResponseConverter
.
KeyPathResponseConverter
allow you to pull a data from JSON
chileds node by specific path
to the node.
class MyRequest: Request {
var responseConverter: ResponseJsonConverter {
KeyPathResponseConverter(path: "path/to/node")
}
var errorConverter: ResponseJsonConverter {
KeyPathResponseConverter(path: "path/to/error")
}
}
ClosureResponseConverter
allow you to provide custom convertation by closure. You will need to provide a closure
that takes Any
and return Any
after convertation.
class MyRequest: Request {
var responseConverter: ResponseJsonConverter {
ClosureResponseConverter { response in
// Return converted response for success response
}
}
var errorConverter: ResponseJsonConverter {
ClosureResponseConverter { response in
// Return converted response for error response
}
}
}
You can implement your ovn converter by implementing ResponseJsonConverter
protocol.
class MyResponseConverter: ResponseJsonConverter {
func convertedJson(from json: Any) throws -> Any {
// Provide convertation and return converted code
}
}
You can use CocoaPods dependency manager to install NerdzNetworking
.
In your Podfile
spicify:
pod 'NerdzNetworking', '~> 1.0.1'
