Swift 5 UITableViewController from Json - ios

Question

I'm new in swift 5.
I have a trouble to call a function present in viewcontroller file :
func getJsonResultFromUrl (urlSrc: String, completion:#escaping (Arts)->()) {
if let url = URL(string: urlSrc) {
let task = URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: url) { (data, response, error) in
guard let data = data else { return }
do {
var returnValue: Arts?
let decoder = JSONDecoder()
returnValue = try decoder.decode(Arts.self, from: data)
completion(returnValue!)
} catch {
fatalError("Couldn't parse \(url) as \(Arts.self):\n\(error)")
}
}
task.resume()
}
}
from another file with class :
import UIKit
class ListStockArticle: UITableViewController {
var datacell: (Arts) -> () = {_ in } // = 0
var url: String = ""
var nombreDeLigne: Int?
init() {
let urlPrefixLocal = "http://urlmasqued"
let urlPrefixRemote = "http://urlmasqued"
if self.url.validURL {
} else {
self.url = urlPrefixRemote + ajax
}
print(self.url)
let k: () = getJsonResultFromUrl(urlSrc: url, completion: (Arts) -> () )
print(k)
////// -> I have error : Editor placeholder in source file
/* getJsonResultFromUrl(urlSrc: self.url) { k in Arts()
// self.datacell = Arts
self.nombreDeLigne = k.count
}
*/
super.init(nibName:nil, bundle:nil) // *
}
required init(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented")
}
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return 20 //self.nombreDeLigne
}
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = UITableViewCell()
cell.textLabel?.text = "Test"
return cell
}
}
The URL and get data from url works fine, but how can I call the function from another page ? The idea is to get a list of product, and create a cell per products.
I will really appreciate help, this sounds strange for me.

Try this: Singleton class
class SampleController {
private static var privateSharedInstance: SampleController?
static var sharedInstance: SampleController {
if privateSharedInstance == nil {
privateSharedInstance = SampleController()
}
return privateSharedInstance ?? SampleController()
}
private init() {
}
func getJsonResultFromUrl () {
}
}
Usage:
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
SampleController.sharedInstance.getJsonResultFromUrl()
}
