Achieve your deadlines by using SkyWite. You will save Hundred hours.

Start development using Skywite. Definitely you will be happy....! yeah..

SkyWite being developed in clean code and its sleek features make it the “Dream Framework” for any iOS / Macos developer. Its modular architecture and feature-rich APIs makes it very simple for development. SkyWite’s powerful networking abstraction is built using Cocoa, which makes it easily available for everyone,

Its core being developed on Objective C, makes it compatible on the following platforms :

```
   iOS,
```
```
   Mac OS X,
```
```
   TV OS and
```

The next question that would pop for any developer is, why build a framework as such when there a many similar ones available. The answer was quite straight forward. 9 out of 10 frameworks out there in the market have the following features:

Support all request methods
Offline request support
HTTP request operation manager
Cocoa Pod Support
SWIFT Compatible
Supports Apple UI Kit.
Background request support
Session manager
Reachability manager
Secured
Free support offered around the framework
The framework will be continuously updated with the new OS drops
Community around the framework to support bug fixes
Code amendment flexibility
99% Guaranteed on crash management for the framework
Block support
MIT License

Above features are not only available on the other frameworks in the market, but is also available on SkyWite, but here is what makes SkyWite special:

Offline sync support
The frameworks adds in a loading indicator when a request is sent, allows for addition of custom indicators as well
A sing line of code to initiate a request, which will approximately save 20 lines of code
Block with background request
Tag a request (set int value to identify requests)
Set priority for offline requests.
All the request/response body will generated automatically which would save the developer approximately 50-70 lines of coding

As same as the swnetworking framework we released earlier, this framework also doesn't have any issue. If you find any, I'll fix them as soon as possible. Now we don't need a team as there is no such issues to fix.

How to Use

Use HTTP Request will be `NSURLSession`

ALL Requests will be NSURLSession. Session will add in to NSOperationQueue . Request creation , response serialization, network reachability handing and offline request as well.

`GET` Request

let s  = SWGet()
s.startDataTask(url: "", params:nil, success: { (task, object) in
}) { (task, error) in
    print("error", error)
}

If you want send parameters you have two options

let s  = SWGet()
s.startDataTask(url: "", params:"name=this is name&address=your address", success: { (task, object) in
}) { (task, error) in
    print("error", error)
}

If you want to encdoe parameters and values you need to pass Dictionary object with keys/values.

let s  = SWGet()
s.startDataTask(url: "", params:"name=this is name&address=your address", success: { (task, object) in
}) { (task, error) in
    print("error", error)
}

We are recommend to use second option because if you have & sign with parameter or value it will break sending values.

`GET` with Response type

Available as response types SWResponseJSONDataType, SWResponseJSONDataType, SWResponseXMLDataType, SWResponseStringDataType,SWResponseUIImageType
You need set responseDataType.

// this response will be JSON
let s  = SWGet()
s.responseDataType = SWResponseStringDataType()
s.startDataTask(url: "", params:nil, success: { (task, object) in
print("item", object)
}) { (task, error) in
    print("error", error)
}

`GET` with loading indicator

If you set your parent view to method, loading indicator will be displayed.

let s  = SWGet()
s.responseDataType = SWResponseDataType()
s.startDataTask(url: "", params:nil, parentView: self.view , success: { (task, object) in
    print("item", object)
}) { (task, error) in
    print("error", error)
}

If you want custom loading view you need to add new nib file to your project and name it as 'sw_loadingView'. It will be displayed on the screen.

Cache Response

If you want to access cached data on the response. You need to use relevant method that include cache block

let s  = SWGet()
s.responseDataType = SWResponseStringDataType()
s.startDataTask(url: "", params: nil, parentView: self.view, cache: { (response, object) in
    print("chache", object)
}, success: { (task, object) in
    print("success", object)
}) { (task, error) in
    print("success", error)
}

`POST` request (simple)

Cache, Loading view available for the on the relevant method. Please check available methods

let s = SWPost()
s.responseDataType = SWResponseStringDataType()
s.startDataTask(url: "", params:["name":"this is name", "address": "your address"] as AnyObject  , success: { (task, object) in
    print("item", object)
}) { (task, error) in
    print("error", error)
}

let s2 = SWPost()
s2.responseDataType = SWResponseStringDataType()
s2.startDataTask(url: "", params:"saman=test" as AnyObject  , success: { (task, object) in
    print("item", object)
}) { (task, error) in
    print("error", error)
}

`POST` multipart request

It is really easy.

let s = SWPost()

let image = NSImage(named: "skywite")
let imgData = pngRepresentationOfImage(image: image!)

let media1 = SWMedia(fileName: "imagefile.png", key: "image", data: imgData)
let media2 = SWMedia(fileName: "imagefile.jpg", key: "image2", mineType:"image/jpeg", data: imgData)

s.responseDataType = SWResponseStringDataType()
s.startUploadTask(url: "", files:[media1, media2] , params: ["name":"this is name", "address": "your address"] as AnyObject, success: { (task, object) in

}) { (task, error) in

}

//create with custom mine type one

let media2 = SWMedia(fileName: "imagefile.jpg", key: "image2", mineType:"image/jpeg", data: imgData)

`PUT` simple request

let s = SWPut()
s.responseDataType = SWResponseStringDataType()
s.startDataTask(url: "", params:"saman=test" as AnyObject  , success: { (task, object) in
    print("item", object)
}) { (task, error) in
    print("error", error)
}

`PATCH` simple request

let s = SWPatch()
s.responseDataType = SWResponseStringDataType()
s.startDataTask(url: "", params:"saman=test" as AnyObject  , success: { (task, object) in
    print("item", object)
}) { (task, error) in
    print("error", error)
}

`DELETE` simple request

let s = SWDelete()
s.responseDataType = SWResponseStringDataType()
s.startDataTask(url: "", params:"saman=test" as AnyObject  , success: { (task, object) in
    print("item", object)
}) { (task, error) in
    print("error", error)
}

`HEAD` simple request

let s = SWHead()
s.responseDataType = SWResponseStringDataType()
s.startDataTask(url: "", params:"saman=test" as AnyObject  , success: { (task, object) in
    print("item", object)
}) { (task, error) in
    print("error", error)
}

Features

all the following features averrable on all the request types. eg : If you want to access you need to call relevant method that include cache block

Custom headers

If you want to add custom headers you can set to accessing request object.

let s = SWPost()
s.reqeust.setValue("application/x-www-form-urlencoded", forHTTPHeaderField: "Content-Type")
s.responseDataType = SWResponseStringDataType()
s.startDataTask(url: "", params:["name":"this is name", "address": "your address"] as AnyObject  , success: { (task, object) in
    print("item", object)
}) { (task, error) in
    print("error", error)
}

Custom time out

If you want to change request timeout , you have to change property call timeOut.

let s = SWPost()
s.timeOut = 120
s.responseDataType = SWResponseStringDataType()
s.startDataTask(url: "", params:["name":"this is name", "address": "your address"] as AnyObject  , success: { (task, object) in
    print("item", object)
}) { (task, error) in
    print("error", error)
}

Response Encoding

You need to sent object type for the responseDataType on all your requests.

//JSON
let s = SWPost()
s.responseDataType = SWResponseJSONDataType()
s.startDataTask(url: "" , params: ["name":"this is name for testing", "address": "your address"] as AnyObject, parentView: nil, sendLaterIfOffline: true, cache: { (cache, response) in
}, success: { (task, response) in
}) { (task, error) in
}

//String
let s2 = SWPost()
s2.responseDataType = SWResponseStringDataType()
s2.startDataTask(url: "" , params: ["name":"this is name for testing", "address": "your address"] as AnyObject, parentView: nil, sendLaterIfOffline: true, cache: { (cache, response) in
}, success: { (task, response) in
}) { (task, error) in
}

`UIImageView` with `SkyWite`

No need to download image and set to UIImageView anymore. You can set url to UIImageView.

// Please use only one method . you can see 4 methods :)

let imageView = UIImageView.init(frame: CGRect(x:0, y:0, width:300, height:300))
imageView.loadWithURLString(url: "")
imageView.loadWithURLString(url: "", loadFromCacheFirst: true)
imageView.loadWithURLString(url: "") { (image) in
}
imageView.loadWithURLString(url: "", loadFromCacheFirst: true) { (image) in
}

Check Reachability

New Reachability class to support block when change network status available Status

NotReachable WWAN Wifi

if (SWReachability.getCurrentNetworkStatus() == .NotReachable) {
//connection not avaible
}

//if you want to get status chnage notification
SWReachability.checkNetowrk(currentNetworkStatus: { (currentStatus) in
}) { (changedStatus) in
}

Upload progress With Request

let s = SWPost()
let image = UIImage(named: "skywite")
let imgData = UIImagePNGRepresentation(image!)

let media1 = SWMedia(fileName: "imagefile.png", key: "image", data: imgData!)
let media2 = SWMedia(fileName: "imagefile.jpg", key: "image2", mineType:"image/jpeg", data: imgData!)

s.responseDataType = SWResponseStringDataType()
s.startUploadTask(url: "http://localhost:3000/api/v1/users/users", files:[media1, media2] , params: ["name":"this is name", "address": "your address"] as AnyObject, success: { (task, object) in

}) { (task, error) in

}
progressView.setRequestForUpload(request: s)

Download Progress With Request

let s = SWPost()
s.responseDataType = SWResponseJSONDataType()
s.startDownloadTask(url: "http://192.168.1.36:3000/api/v1/users/jobs" , params:nil , parentView: nil, sendLaterIfOffline: true, cache: { (cache, response) in
}, success: { (task, response) in
}) { (task, error) in
}
progressView.setRequestForDownload(request: s)

Pass object to response block

You can set custom object to your request object as userObject . This will allow any type

let s = SWPost()
s.userObject = //any type object.

Identify the Request

You can set tag for the request

let s = SWPost()
s.tag = 12;

Offline request from `SkyWite`

This is really simple. First of all you need to send offline request expire time. this is seconds

SWOfflineManager.requestExpireTime(seconds: 1300)

You have methods with parameter passing sendLaterIfOllfine. Just pass YES. That's it.

let s = SWPost()
s.responseDataType = SWResponseJSONDataType()
s.startDownloadTask(url: "http://192.168.1.36:3000/api/v1/users/jobs" , params:nil , parentView: nil, sendLaterIfOffline: true, cache: { (cache, response) in
}, success: { (task, response) in
}) { (task, error) in
}

If you want catch offline request you need to use following methods. Better to add following lines to your AppDelegate didFinishLaunchingWithOptions methods.

SWOfflineManager.sharedInstance.request(success: { (squreqeust, obj) in
}) { (request, error) in
}

Please note you need to set tag or userObject to identify the request. userObject should be `'NSCording' support object

Set Task for UIProgressView

Please use following method to set task for UIProgressView

func setDownloadTask(task: URLSessionDownloadTask) {}
func setUploadTask(task: URLSessionUploadTask) {}
