TableView not displaying data in ViewController: Swift - ios

Question

Everything was working fine when I had it in an entire TableViewController, but because I need to have a dropdown menu I switched over to a basic ViewController to have more flexibility. Haven't been able to display the data since.
I think I have all my bases covered. It is a tableView inside a viewController. Delegate and dataSource are set from the tableView to my viewController. The cell identifier is correctly set to "cell". The data is being pulled and can confirm it is in the collectionsAndArrays object.
Any help would be great, thanks.
edit: added self.collectionTableView!.reloadData() and still not working
import UIKit
class ImagesTabViewController: UIViewController, UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource {
var collectionInfo: NSArray = DataManager.getUserCollections()
var items: NSMutableArray = []
#IBOutlet weak var collectionTableView: UITableView!
#IBOutlet weak var menuView: UIView!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
APIManager().getData() { completed in
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), { () -> Void in
if completed {
self.items = NSMutableArray(array: self.collectionInfo)
} else {
//do something else
}
})
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
}
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
func numberOfSectionsInTableView(tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
// #warning Potentially incomplete method implementation.
// Return the number of sections.
return 1
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
// #warning Incomplete method implementation.
// Return the number of rows in the section.
var numberOfCollections: Int = self.items.count
return numberOfCollections
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
var collectionsAndArrays = PSCollection()
let cell = UITableViewCell(style: UITableViewCellStyle.Default, reuseIdentifier: "cell")
// Configure the cell...
collectionsAndArrays = self.items[indexPath.row] as! PSCollection
cell.textLabel!.text = collectionsAndArrays.name
cell.detailTextLabel!.text = collectionsAndArrays.created_at
return cell
}
}

Try this
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
APIManager().getData() { completed in
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), { () -> Void in
if completed {
self.items = NSMutableArray(array: self.collectionInfo)
self.collectionTableView.reloadData()
} else {
//do something else
}
})
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
}
}
