Want to make an HTTP request in Swift? You can use URL, URLRequest and URLSession or NSURLConnection as you’d normally do in Objective-C. Note that for iOS 7.0 and later, URLSession is preferred. Initialize a URL object and a URLSessionDataTask from URLSession. Then run the task with resume().
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 | let url = URL(string: "https://www.freewebmentor.com")! let task = URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: url) {(data, response, error) in guard let data = data else { return } print(String(data: data, encoding: .utf8)!) } task.resume() |
NSURLConnectionFirst, initialize a URL and a URLRequest:
1 2 3 | let url = URL(string: "https://www.freewebmentor.com")! var request = URLRequest(url: url) request.httpMethod = "POST" |
