UITableView and Cells from Model Array - ios

I'm stuck on something I don't quite understand as from a few tests, it looks like the generation of table cell is happening before but not as well after a page load and Alamofire request.
If you see below I'm trying to get it to where our museum's outbound shipments are viewed after referencing the pro:
import Alamofire
import SwiftyJSON
class ShipmentProSearchResultsTableViewController: UITableViewController {
var pronumber:String = ""
var shipments = [Shipment]()
typealias JSONStandard = [String: AnyObject]
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
fetchShipments()
}
func fetchShipments() {
let parameters: Parameters = ["pro_number": pronumber]
let todoEndpoint: String = "OURHOST/shipments/api/details/pro"
Alamofire.request(todoEndpoint, method: .get, parameters: parameters)
.responseJSON { response in
if response.result.isSuccess{
let shipmentJSON : JSON = JSON(response.result.value!)
for (index, subJson):(String, JSON) in shipmentJSON{
let proNumber = subJson["proNumber"].int
let consigneeName = subJson["consignee"]["name"].string
let shipment = Shipment(proNumber: proNumber!, consigneeName: consigneeName!)
self.shipments.append(shipment)
}
print(self.shipments)
}else{
print("Could not get results")
}
}
}
// MARK: - Table view data source
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return shipments.count
}
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "ShipmentCell", for: indexPath)
let shipment = shipments[indexPath.row]
cell.textLabel?.text = "Hello"
cell.detailTextLabel?.text = "\(shipment.proNumber)"
return cell
}
}
Now where I printed the self.shipments, I get the following results:
[OakRidgeArchaeologicalRepositoryDispatcher.Shipment(proNumber: 471008276, consigneeName: "A1 CHICAGO INSTITUTE OF THE ARTS")]
So I know the data is appropriately being passed to the model. I will also note that the Table View Cell Identifier in the storyboard is correctly set to ShipmentCell. But after the query, nothing pops up in my table.
I'm using Swift 4.

You should reload the tableView after updating source field.
func fetchShipments() {
let parameters: Parameters = ["pro_number": pronumber]
let todoEndpoint: String = "OURHOST/shipments/api/details/pro"
Alamofire.request(todoEndpoint, method: .get, parameters: parameters)
.responseJSON { response in
if response.result.isSuccess{
let shipmentJSON : JSON = JSON(response.result.value!)
for (index, subJson):(String, JSON) in shipmentJSON{
let proNumber = subJson["proNumber"].int
let consigneeName = subJson["consignee"]["name"].string
let shipment = Shipment(proNumber: proNumber!, consigneeName: consigneeName!)
self.shipments.append(shipment)
}
tableView.reloadData() //<-------add this.
print(self.shipments)
}else{
print("Could not get results")
}
}
}

How to show Api response in tableview cell in swift

I am stuck in my code, I am trying show to API response tableview cell but i have not any idea how to fill data in array ,So not showing anything in my tableviewcell. I am using custome cell and Alamofire in swift. Please improve my mistake give me solution .
func Api_call()
{
let url = URL(string: "https://dousic.com/api/radiolist")!
let components = URLComponents(url: url, resolvingAgainstBaseURL: true)!
// let fragment = components.fragment!
print(components)
let params = ["user_id":"16" ]
Alamofire.request(url, method: .post, parameters: params, encoding: URLEncoding.default).responseJSON {response in
self.hideActivityIndicator()
var err:Error?
switch response.result {
case .success(let value):
print(value)
let json = JSON(value)
// returns nil if it's not an array
if let resData = json["radioList"].arrayObject
{
self.array_RadioList = resData as! [[String:AnyObject]]
}
if self.array_RadioList.count > 0 {
self.tbl_home.reloadData()
}
case .failure(let error):
err = error
print(err ?? "error .....")
}
}
}`
Thanks for help .
EDIT
Just create a radio list variable like this
var array_RadioList:[JSON]?
Get array from json like this
-
if let resData = json["response"]["radioList"].array {
self.array_RadioList = resData
self.tableView.reloadData()
}
and reload data.And get radio object in
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell: UITableViewCell? = self.tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: cellReuseIdentifier)
let radio:JSON? = array_RadioList?[indexPath.row]
cell?.textLabel?.text = radio?["radio_tags"].string
return cell ?? UITableViewCell()
}
If you are getting your array_RadioList from Api_call(), try this
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell : homeCell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "homeCell")! as! homeCell
cell.lbl_name?.text = array_RadioList[indexPath.row]["radio_title"] as? String
return cell
}
and also check for numberOfRowsInSection function.
If the API you're calling is well-made, you should use a get method, not a post.
Also, I tried to use "https://dousic.com/api/radiolist?user_id=16" but it return
{
"response": {
"code": "301",
"error": "wrong url"
}
}
These 2 things could be your problem, or it could be in your custom cells, or in you cellforrow method...
If you can show more code it would help.
EDIT
Try to use this version of the optional chaining :
if let resData = json["radioList"].arrayObject as? [[String:AnyObject] {
self.array_RadioList = resData
self.tbl_home.reloadData()
}
and try to debug it with breakpoints to see if the application goes everywhere you want and what are your variables at this time.
Try this
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return [self.array_RadioList].count;
}

How to return a cell in tableview if it is nested inside an if statement

This is my code —- I am getting error when returning cell1 inside the if statement as it says ” Cannot return a non void return value in void function.I want to return the cell in tableview .. and i have 3 kind of posts .. one for status one for image one for video post.

My answer isn't any different from the others but let me be a little more specific. I'll use a generic example and you'll need to tailor this to your specific needs.
1) Define a model somewhere for your data such as:
class MyDataItem {
var name: String
var title: String
var location: String
init(name: String, title: String, location: String) {
self.name = name
self.title = title
self.location = location
}
}
2) Define an array in your Viewcontroller such as:
var dataArray = [MyDataItem]()
3) Load the data which you could do from the viewDidLoad method:
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
feedTable.dataSource = self
feedTable.delegate = self
loadData()
}
4) Implement loadData() function:
func loadData() {
// Here put in your alamo enclosure to retrieve the data and store it into the array you've defined
// When done, call reload data
feedTable.reloadData()
}
5) Your cellForRowAt function will need to be modified to retrieve the data from the array. For example:
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell1 : ImageTableViewCell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "imageReuse") as! ImageTableViewCell
cell1.fullName = dataArray[indexPath.row].name
cell1.title = dataArray[indexPath.row].title
cell1.location = dataArray[indexPath.row].location
return cell1
}
Anyway, this is the general idea on how to do what you are attempting. When reloadData is called from your loadData function, it will cause the tableview to reload from the array data correctly.
Hope this helps!
The problem is you do not return the cell, you simply make some async request with alamofire and return an instance of the cell from the closure.
func foo() -> Int { return 1 } ≠ func bar() -> Int { someClosure { return 1 } }
Firstly you need load the the data from https://www.example.com/api/posts/get_all_posts into some data model.
var models: [SomeTypeYouCreate] = []
func loadData() {
Alamofire.request(...).responseJSON { response in
self.models = /* Create array of `SomeTypeYouCreate` objects from response */
self.tableView.reloadData()
}
}
func func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let model = self.models[indexPath.row]
// configure cell with model
return cell
}
You cannot do it the way you're trying to. You're not returning a cell from cellForRowAt method, you're returning it in Alamofire callback closure. What you should do is to return the cell in your cellForRowAt method, and implement some sort of setup method for your UITableViewCell subclass and make your calls in there
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell1 : ImageTableViewCell = self.feedTable.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "imageReuse") as! ImageTableViewCell
// put your Alamofire code inside such function in your UITableViewCell subclass
cell.setup()
return cell
}
First and foremost, you are returning value in closure Alamofire.request. If you wanna use cell after you confirm cell values, you want to pass over completion handler to the function and use it in that Alamofire.reqeust...
But if I were you, I would create another function which is called before/after tableView function.
If it is Before then trigger tableview initialization upon alamofire completion.
If it is After then reload when values are loaded correctly in Alamofire.
EDITED:
Like other suggested,it is bad idea to load data in tableView function. Also, by using Alamofire, it means you use Closure. That is, whatever you wanna do in Alamofire happens asynchronously, meaning by the time what you want to achieve in Alamofire is done, your program can be out of the table view function. Also, since it is closure, returning value in Alamofire does not satisfy your tableView return type.
So basically, if you need data via API and verify, you declare function such that do whatever you doing Alamofire and then reload the tableView.
So flow is like this:
1) Make an empty array and put array.count to # of rows.
2) Since it is empty, when tableView first try to generate cells, it doesn't do anything.
3) You call the function which uses Alamofire. If returned values are good, then add the cell(model) to the array.
4) After you are done loading models, do tableView.reload().
5) Tableview calls tableView function now it finds value in array so that will create cells.

How to show data in tableview using Alamofire and swift3?

I got the following response array of values:
["Mallard Point Trailer Court","Golddust","Hagler","McCosh Mill","Graystone","Old Jonesboro","Carlees Mobile Home Court","Denson","Blake","Inverness Cliffs"]
How to load this data in my tableview by using alamofire?
Here is my code
let url = Constants.CityUrl + fullName
print(url)
Alamofire.request(url, method: .get).responseJSON { response in
if let JSON = response.result.value {
print("JSON: \(JSON)")
let response = JSON as! NSArray
}
Inorder to access the array in whole class you need to declare it global like below, also prefer swift "Array" over "NSArray", As it has many advantages
var reponseArray = [String]
Also call below method from viewDidLoad
func fetchInformation() {
let url = Constants.CityUrl + fullName
print(url)
Alamofire.request(url, method: .get).responseJSON { response in
if let JSON = response.result.value {
print("JSON: \(JSON)")
reponseArray = JSON as! Array
DispatchQueue.main.async {
tableView.reloadData()
//reload on main thread
}
}
}
In Table View Data source method use information from reponseArray
Add one variable outside the completion block and assign the response to it.
For example:
let arrResponse: [String]?
In tableView delegate methods
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return arrResponse.count
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
var cell:UITableViewCell = self.tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("cell") as UITableViewCell
cell.textLabel?.text = arrResponse[indexPath.row] as! String
return cell
}

Unable to append strings to array while parsing JSON data

I am having difficulties storing the results retrieved from a JSON source data. I have confirmed the ability to print the data retrieved but it was not able to store into my local array.
My end objective is to actually print in a UITableView the results.
Below is the code for my relevant table view controller :
import UIKit
class CommunityActivityTableViewController: UITableViewController {
var displayNameArr = [String]()
var postDateArr = [String]()
var postDetailArr = [String]()
var testArr = ["teaad"]
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
parseJson()
print(self.displayNameArr.count) //returns 0
print(self.postDateArr.count) //returns 0
print(self.postDetailArr.count) //returns 0
print(self.testArr.count)
print("end")
}
override func numberOfSectionsInTableView(tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
// #warning Incomplete implementation, return the number of sections
return 1
}
override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
// #warning Incomplete implementation, return the number of rows
return self.displayNameArr.count
}
override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
print("3")
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("Cell_activity", forIndexPath: indexPath)
print("hi")
cell.textLabel?.text = "hi"
cell.detailTextLabel?.text = "test"
return cell
}
override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, heightForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> CGFloat {
return UITableViewAutomaticDimension
}
override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, estimatedHeightForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> CGFloat {
return UITableViewAutomaticDimension
}
func makeAttributedString(title title: String, subtitle: String) -> NSAttributedString {
let titleAttributes = [NSFontAttributeName: UIFont.preferredFontForTextStyle(UIFontTextStyleHeadline), NSForegroundColorAttributeName: UIColor.purpleColor()]
let subtitleAttributes = [NSFontAttributeName: UIFont.preferredFontForTextStyle(UIFontTextStyleSubheadline)]
let titleString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: "\(title)\n", attributes: titleAttributes)
let subtitleString = NSAttributedString(string: subtitle, attributes: subtitleAttributes)
titleString.appendAttributedString(subtitleString)
return titleString
}
func parseJson(){
//MARK: JSON parsing
let requestURL: NSURL = NSURL(string: "<sanitised>")!
let urlRequest: NSMutableURLRequest = NSMutableURLRequest(URL: requestURL)
let session = NSURLSession.sharedSession()
let task = session.dataTaskWithRequest(urlRequest) {
(data, response, error) -> Void in
let httpResponse = response as! NSHTTPURLResponse
let statusCode = httpResponse.statusCode
if (statusCode == 200) {
print("Everyone is fine, file downloaded successfully.")
do{
let json = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data!, options:.AllowFragments)
if let results = json["result"] as? [[String: AnyObject]] {
for result in results {
if let lastname = result["last_name"] as? String {
if let postdate = result["timestamp"] as? String {
if let firstname = result["first_name"] as? String {
if let postdetails = result["post_details"] as? String {
let displayname = firstname + " " + lastname
//print(displayname)
self.displayNameArr.append(displayname)
self.postDateArr.append(postdate)
self.postDetailArr.append(postdetails)
self.testArr.append("haha")
}
}
}
}
}
}
}catch {
print("Error with Json: \(error)")
}
}
}
task.resume()}
}
As per the code above the print results of displaynamearr.count and postDateArr.count and postDetailArr.count returned 0 when it should have returned more than 0 as a result of parseJson() method.
I have printed the display name, postgame and post details variables and they all contain data within so the problem does not lie with the extraction of data but the appending of data into the array.
Appreciate any help provided thanks ! Developed on Xcode 7 and Swift 2.2
Sanitised my JSON source due to sensitive nature of information (i have verified the retrieval of information is OK)
dataTaskWithRequest() is an asynchronous data loading. It loads on the background thread ensuring your UI won't freeze up. So your array will be empty when you this will be getting executed and hence your error. You need to a completion handler like so:
func parseJson(completion: (isDone: Bool) -> ()){
///code
for result in results {
if let lastname = result["last_name"] as? String {
if let postdate = result["timestamp"] as? String {
if let firstname = result["first_name"] as? String {
if let postdetails = result["post_details"] as? String {
let displayname = firstname + " " + lastname
//print(displayname)
self.displayNameArr.append(displayname)
self.postDateArr.append(postdate)
self.postDetailArr.append(postdetails)
self.testArr.append("haha")
}
completion(isDone: True)
}
}
Now in viewDidLoad:
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
parseJson(){ success in
if success{
print(self.displayNameArr.count) //returns a value
print(self.postDateArr.count) //returns a value
print(self.postDetailArr.count) //returns a value
print(self.testArr.count) //This wont because I havent added it in the completion handler
print("end")
self.tableView.reloadData()
}
}
}
All of your UI updates run on the main thread. If you do something like
let task = session.dataTaskWithRequest(urlRequest) {
(data, response, error) -> Void in
// ...
}.resume()
you start a task asynchronously on another thread (not the main thread). Your iPhone is doing a network request and this takes some time. So I guess when your cellForRowAtIndexPath delegate method is called you haven't received any data yet. This is the reason you don't see anything.
The easiest solution to this would be to reload the table view once you have received the data. When you're done with all the parsing in your parseJson method (outside of all the loops) simply run:
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue()) {
self.tableView.reloadData()
}
This forces your table view to update. Remember that you have to run code that updates the UI on the main thread. This is what dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue()) {} does.
EDIT: The answer above was to illustrate the problem to you. The more elegant solution would be to use a completion handler like so:
func parseJson(completionHandler: (Bool) -> Void) {
//do all your json parsing.
//....
dispatch_asyc(dispatch_get_main_queue()) {
//run this if you received the data
//implement some kind of if statement that checks if the parsing was successful
completionHandler(true)
//run this if it failed
completionHandler(false)
}
}
In your viewDidLoad you would do something like
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
//...
parseJson() { success in
tableView.reloadData()
if(success) {
print("success")
}
}
}
If you want to display an activity indicator while data is loaded (which I would recommend) it is easier to use a callback as I've just described.

Dynamically populating an iOS table view with Swift from an API

I'm currently in the process of creating an app to display the latest football scores. I've connected to an API through a URL and pulled back the team names for the english premier league into an array of strings.
The problem seems to come from populating the iOS table view that I intend to display the list of teams with. The data appears to be pulled from the API fine, but for some reason the TableView method which creates a cell and returns it doesn't seem to be called. The only time I can get the method to be called is when I actually hard code a value into the array of team names.
Here is my code:
class Main: UIViewController {
var names = [String]()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
let URL_String = "https://football-api.com/api/?Action=standings&APIKey=[API_KEY_REMOVED]&comp_id=1204"
let url = NSURL(string: URL_String)
let urlRequest = NSURLRequest(URL: url!)
let config = NSURLSessionConfiguration.defaultSessionConfiguration()
let session = NSURLSession(configuration: config)
let task = session.dataTaskWithRequest(urlRequest, completionHandler: {
(data, response, error) in
do {
let json = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data!, options: .AllowFragments)
if let teams = json["teams"] as? [[String : AnyObject]] {
for team in teams {
if let name = team["stand_team_name"] as? String {
self.names.append(name)
}
}
}
} catch {
print("error serializing JSON: \(error)")
}
})
task.resume()
}
// Number of Sections In Table
func numberOfSectionsInTableView(tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
return 1
}
// Number of Rows in each Section
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return names.count
}
// Sets the content of each cell
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("Cell", forIndexPath: indexPath)
cell.textLabel?.text = names[indexPath.row]
return cell
}
}
Just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction here. This code doesn't crash or throw any errors, it just refuses to load a table view. The only reason I can possibly think of is that the array of team names is empty after completing a request to the API. However I've set breakpoints throughout and checked the values of local variables and the desired information is being pulled from the API as intended...
you are in the correct way , just refresh the table using reloadData once you got the new data from API
if let teams = json["teams"] as? [[String : AnyObject]] {
for team in teams {
if let name = team["stand_team_name"] as? String {
self.names.append(name)
}
}
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), { () -> Void in
self.yourtableViewname.reloadData()
})
}
