ios download file with data chunks delegate - ios

I want to download a file from a certain url .
what I need is the data delegate ( the delegate which gives me the downloaded data) .
I implemented the :
func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, dataTask: URLSessionDataTask, didReceive data: Data) {
delegate but it doesn't get called .
my code is :
func download(url: URL)
{
let sessionConfig = URLSessionConfiguration.default
let session = URLSession(configuration: sessionConfig, delegate: self, delegateQueue: nil)
let task = session.downloadTask(with: url)
task.resume()
}
func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, dataTask: URLSessionDataTask, didReceive data: Data) {
print("apending ")
self.dataaa.append(data)
}
func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, dataTask: URLSessionDataTask, didReceive response: URLResponse, completionHandler: #escaping (URLSession.ResponseDisposition) -> Void) {
print("here")
}
the two delegate functions don't get called !

You're using the delegate methods for a data task, but you're creating a download task. Those two task types work differently and use completely different delegate methods.

UIWebView get current URL of SPA (single page application) website

I want to get my UIWebView's current location when browsing an SPA (single-page-application) website.
(Yes, I am intentionally working with UIWebView instead of WKWebView.)
I know that there are multiple approaches to getting the current URL, such as:
webView.request?.url?.absoluteString
webView.request?.mainDocumentURL?.absoluteString
webView.stringByEvaluatingJavaScript(from: "window.location")
However, for an SPA website, for each of the approaches above, I am getting the initial url, even when I navigate to another page on that SPA website.
What can I do?
Step 1: Creating a custom URLProtocol to catch data requests
class CustomURLProtocol: URLProtocol, URLSessionDataDelegate, URLSessionTaskDelegate {
// If this returns false, the first request will basically stops at where it begins.
override class func canInit(with request: URLRequest) -> Bool {
return true
}
override class func canonicalRequest(for request: URLRequest) -> URLRequest {
return request
}
override func startLoading() {
print(self.request.url) // URL of Data requests made by UIWebView before loading.
URLSession(configuration: URLSessionConfiguration.default, delegate: self, delegateQueue: nil).dataTask(with: self.request).resume()
}
override func stopLoading() {
}
func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, dataTask: URLSessionDataTask, didReceive response: URLResponse, completionHandler: #escaping (URLSession.ResponseDisposition) -> Void) {
// Data request responses received.
self.client?.urlProtocol(self, didReceive: response, cacheStoragePolicy: .allowed)
completionHandler(.allow)
}
func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, dataTask: URLSessionDataTask, didReceive data: Data) {
// Data request data received.
self.client?.urlProtocol(self, didLoad: data)
self.urlSession(session, task: dataTask, didCompleteWithError: nil)
}
func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, task: URLSessionTask, didCompleteWithError error: Error?) {
if let error = error {
self.client?.urlProtocol(self, didFailWithError: error)
return
}
print(self.request.url) // URL of Data requests completed.
self.client?.urlProtocolDidFinishLoading(self)
}
}
Step 2: Registering your custom URLProtocol
Register your custom URLProtocol before loading your SPA in UIWebview.
URLProtocol.registerClass(CustomURLProtocol.self)
Hope this helps! Sorry for the delay, was caught up at work.

How can I tell when data has started to arrive from my URL request?

Using either NSURLConnection or NSURLSession, how can I tell when data has started to arrive? My download may be large or my connection slow so I want to make an update to the UI once data starts to arrive.
NSUrlSession has a delegate that should help you, if you're interested in knowing the each block of data is received.
func urlSession(_ session: URLSession,
dataTask: URLSessionDataTask,
didReceive data: Data)
And this delegate if just the headers received is useful.
optional func urlSession(_ session: URLSession,
dataTask: URLSessionDataTask,
didReceive response: URLResponse,
completionHandler: #escaping (URLSession.ResponseDisposition) -> Void)

URLSession delegate methods don't works

I'm going to read file from API, but its size equal 1.6mb and it takes so much time. I wish to read it by parts, and when i founds data which i needs, i'm going to stop recieve data. I trying to use some delegate methods, but they don't works. I don't understand what goes wrong?
I have next code:
class ViewController: UIViewController, URLSessionTaskDelegate, URLSessionDelegate, URLSessionDataDelegate {
var httpString = "hided"
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
getLogBinData()
}
func getLogBinData() {
let session = URLSession(configuration: .default, delegate: self, delegateQueue: OperationQueue.main)
if let url = URL(string: httpString + "log.bin") {
var request = URLRequest(url: url)
request.httpMethod = "GET"
let task = session.dataTask(with: request)
task.resume()
}
}
func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, task: URLSessionTask, didSendBodyData bytesSent: Int64, totalBytesSent: Int64, totalBytesExpectedToSend: Int64) {
print()
}
func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, dataTask: URLSessionDataTask, didReceive data: Data) {
if dataTask.countOfBytesReceived >= 500 {
print(dataTask.countOfBytesReceived)
}
}
func urlSession(_ session: URLSession,
dataTask: URLSessionDataTask,
didReceive response: URLResponse,
completionHandler: #escaping (URLSession.ResponseDisposition) -> Void) {
if dataTask.countOfBytesReceived >= 500 {
print(dataTask.countOfBytesReceived)
}
}
}
according the comment, i edited code and it's worked.
class ViewController: UIViewController, URLSessionTaskDelegate, URLSessionDelegate, URLSessionDataDelegate {
var httpString = "hided"
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
getLogBinData()
}
func getLogBinData() {
let session = URLSession(configuration: .default, delegate: self, delegateQueue: OperationQueue.main)
if let url = URL(string: httpString + "log.bin") {
var request = URLRequest(url: url)
request.httpMethod = "GET"
let task = session.dataTask(with: request)
task.resume()
}
}
func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, dataTask: URLSessionDataTask, didReceive data: Data) {
if dataTask.countOfBytesReceived >= 500 {
print(dataTask.countOfBytesReceived)
}
}
}

Get json data at the end of a file upload data task

I am trying to upload a file to the server and after the completion of upload, I'm supposed to get a JSON response.
I can see the data when I use the completion block
uploaderSession.dataTask(with: request, completionHandler: { (data, response, error) in
print("\(NSString(data: data!, encoding: 4))")
}).resume()
I need the same data but using the custom delegates
let session = URLSession(configuration: configuration, delegate: self, delegateQueue: nil)
session.dataTask(with: request).resume()
I implemented
func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, dataTask: URLSessionDataTask, didReceive data: Data)
but didReceiveData is not called.
Please suggest what can be done to get the JSON data at the end of completion of file upload
Thanks in advance
ok so got the answer just posting cause it can help somebody
we have to call
completionHandler(URLSession.ResponseDisposition.allow)
in
func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, dataTask: URLSessionDataTask, didReceive response: URLResponse, completionHandler: #escaping (URLSession.ResponseDisposition) -> Void)

Swift 3: UrlProtocol didCompleteWithError delegate never be called

As title, I'm trying to build a custom url protocol.
I found this and I followed the code provided completely.
However, this delegate
func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, task: URLSessionTask, didCompleteWithError error: Error?)
is never be triggered or called.
Furthermore, compiler prompted a warning message said that it nearly matches the optionals requirement of URLSessionTaskDelegate, quick fix provided by compiler was to make it private.
So, How do I call the didCompleteWithError delegate, is the code provided in here missing out some parts? Or this is a known issue? Please let me know if there is any workaround solution or a better Swift 3 example of custom UrlProtocol. Thanks in advance!、
Edit 1:
class CustomURLProtocol: URLProtocol, URLSessionDataDelegate, URLSessionTaskDelegate {
private var dataTask: URLSessionDataTask?
private var urlResponse: URLResponse?
private var receivedData: NSMutableData?
class var CustomHeaderSet: String {
return "CustomHeaderSet"
}
// MARK: NSURLProtocol
override class func canInit(with request: URLRequest) -> Bool {
if (URLProtocol.property(forKey: CustomURLProtocol.CustomHeaderSet, in: request as URLRequest) != nil) {
return false
}
return true
}
override class func canonicalRequest(for request: URLRequest) -> URLRequest {
return request
}
override func startLoading() {
let mutableRequest = NSMutableURLRequest.init(url: self.request.url!, cachePolicy: NSURLRequest.CachePolicy.useProtocolCachePolicy, timeoutInterval: 240.0)//self.request as! NSMutableURLRequest
//Add User Agent
var userAgentValueString = "myApp"
mutableRequest.setValue(userAgentValueString, forHTTPHeaderField: "User-Agent")
print(mutableRequest.allHTTPHeaderFields ?? "")
URLProtocol.setProperty("true", forKey: CustomURLProtocol.CustomHeaderSet, in: mutableRequest)
let defaultConfigObj = URLSessionConfiguration.default
let defaultSession = URLSession(configuration: defaultConfigObj, delegate: self, delegateQueue: nil)
self.dataTask = defaultSession.dataTask(with: mutableRequest as URLRequest)
self.dataTask!.resume()
print("loaded")
}
override func stopLoading() {
self.dataTask?.cancel()
self.dataTask = nil
self.receivedData = nil
self.urlResponse = nil
}
// MARK: NSURLSessionDataDelegate
func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, dataTask: URLSessionDataTask,
didReceive response: URLResponse,
completionHandler: #escaping (URLSession.ResponseDisposition) -> Void) {
self.client?.urlProtocol(self, didReceive: response, cacheStoragePolicy: .notAllowed)
self.urlResponse = response
self.receivedData = NSMutableData()
completionHandler(.allow)
}
func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, dataTask: URLSessionDataTask, didReceive data: Data) {
self.client?.urlProtocol(self, didLoad: data as Data)
self.receivedData?.append(data as Data)
}
// MARK: NSURLSessionTaskDelegate
func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, task: URLSessionTask, didCompleteWithError error: Error?) {
print("completed")
if error != nil { //&& error.code != NSURLErrorCancelled {
self.client?.urlProtocol(self, didFailWithError: error! as! Swift.Error)
} else {
//saveCachedResponse()
self.client?.urlProtocolDidFinishLoading(self)
}
}
}
As the code posted there, those are the changes I made, the 'loaded' was called but 'completed' is never be called.
Edit 2:
Warning message prompted by compiler
