UISearchController number of rows not getting called - ios

Question

I'm trying to send a request to search for movies, but when i tap on the search bar to write the text i get a crash in cellforrow and it's not calling numberofrows neither the request. Here's my code so far:
class InTheaters: UITableViewController, UISearchResultsUpdating, UISearchBarDelegate {
#IBOutlet weak var poster: UIImageView!
#IBOutlet weak var movieTitle: UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var date: UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var duration: UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var rating: UILabel!
#IBOutlet var theatersTable: UITableView!
#IBOutlet weak var starsView: CosmosView!
var results = [Movie]()
var searchResults = [Search]()
var resultSearchController: UISearchController!
private let key = "qtqep7qydngcc7grk4r4hyd9"
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
self.resultSearchController = UISearchController(searchResultsController: nil)
self.resultSearchController.searchResultsUpdater = self
self.resultSearchController.dimsBackgroundDuringPresentation = false
self.resultSearchController.searchBar.sizeToFit()
self.resultSearchController.searchBar.placeholder = "Search for movies"
self.theatersTable.tableHeaderView = self.resultSearchController.searchBar
self.theatersTable.reloadData()
getMovieInfo()
customIndicator()
infiniteScroll()
}
func customIndicator() {
self.theatersTable.infiniteScrollIndicatorView = CustomInfiniteIndicator(frame: CGRectMake(0, 0, 24, 24))
self.theatersTable.infiniteScrollIndicatorMargin = 40
}
func infiniteScroll() {
self.theatersTable.infiniteScrollIndicatorStyle = .White
self.theatersTable.addInfiniteScrollWithHandler { (scrollView) -> Void in
self.getMovieInfo()
}
}
func getMovieInfo() {
Alamofire.request(.GET, "http://api.rottentomatoes.com/api/public/v1.0/lists/movies/in_theaters.json?page_limit=10&page=1&country=us&apikey=\(key)").responseJSON() {
(responseData) -> Void in
if let swiftyResponse = responseData.result.value {
let movies = Movies(JSONDecoder(swiftyResponse))
for movie in movies.allMovies {
self.results.append(movie)
}
}
self.theatersTable.reloadData()
self.theatersTable.finishInfiniteScroll()
}
}
func updateSearchResultsForSearchController(searchController: UISearchController) {
self.searchResults.removeAll(keepCapacity: false)
if (searchController.searchBar.text?.characters.count > 0) {
Alamofire.request(.GET, "http://api.rottentomatoes.com/api/public/v1.0/movies.json?q=N&page_limit=10&page=1&apikey=\(key)").responseJSON() {
(responseData) -> Void in
print(responseData)
if let swiftyResponse = responseData.result.value {
let searches = Searches(JSONDecoder(swiftyResponse))
for search in searches.allSearches {
self.searchResults.append(search)
}
}
self.theatersTable.reloadData()
self.theatersTable.finishInfiniteScroll()
}
}
}
// MARK: - Table view data source
override func numberOfSectionsInTableView(tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
return 1
}
override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
if (self.resultSearchController.active) {
return self.searchResults.count
} else {
return self.results.count
}
}
override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("reuseIdentifier", forIndexPath: indexPath)
let titleLabel = cell.viewWithTag(1) as! UILabel
let yearLabel = cell.viewWithTag(2) as! UILabel
let durationLabel = cell.viewWithTag(3) as! UILabel
let posterImage = cell.viewWithTag(5) as! UIImageView
let starsTag = cell.viewWithTag(6) as! CosmosView
if (self.resultSearchController.active) {
titleLabel.text = searchResults[indexPath.row].titleMovie
yearLabel.text = searchResults[indexPath.row].yearMovie
durationLabel.text = searchResults[indexPath.row].durationMovie?.description
posterImage.sd_setImageWithURL(NSURL(string: searchResults[indexPath.row].posterMovie!))
starsTag.rating = searchResults[indexPath.row].ratingMovie!
starsTag.settings.updateOnTouch = false
} else {
titleLabel.text = results[indexPath.row].titleMovie
yearLabel.text = results[indexPath.row].yearMovie
durationLabel.text = results[indexPath.row].durationMovie?.description
posterImage.sd_setImageWithURL(NSURL(string: results[indexPath.row].posterMovie!))
starsTag.rating = results[indexPath.row].ratingMovie!
starsTag.settings.updateOnTouch = false
}
return cell
}
I also have some structs with information for the request tell me if you need something from that too.

Found the answer should have reloadData before the request.
func updateSearchResultsForSearchController(searchController: UISearchController) {
self.searchResults.removeAll(keepCapacity: false)
self.theatersTable.reloadData()//should have added this before the request
if (searchController.searchBar.text?.characters.count > 0) {
Alamofire.request(.GET, "http://api.rottentomatoes.com/api/public/v1.0/movies.json?q=\(searchController.searchBar.text!)&page_limit=10&page=1&apikey=\(key)").responseJSON() {
(responseData) -> Void in
if let swiftyResponse = responseData.result.value {
let searches = Searches(JSONDecoder(swiftyResponse))
for search in searches.allSearches {
self.searchResults.append(search)
}
}
self.theatersTable.reloadData()
self.theatersTable.finishInfiniteScroll()
}
}
}
