I'm fairly new in swift programming. I cannot seem to figure to how to pull thumbnail images and show them on my application.
I have spent countless hours, I have found nothing reliable. I am positive the issue is in my UITableView, but I just don't know how to code it right. Any and all advice/help will be greatly appreciated:
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController, UITableViewDataSource, UITableViewDelegate {
var tableData = []
@IBOutlet weak var redditListTableView: UITableView!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
getRedditJSON("http://www.reddit.com/.json")
}
func getRedditJSON(whichReddit : String){
let mySession = NSURLSession.sharedSession()
let url: NSURL = NSURL(string: whichReddit)
let networkTask = mySession.dataTaskWithURL(url, completionHandler : {data, response, error -> Void in
var err: NSError?
var theJSON = NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(data, options: NSJSONReadingOptions.MutableContainers, error: &err) as NSMutableDictionary
let results : NSArray = theJSON["data"]!["children"] as NSArray
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), {
self.tableData = results
self.redditListTableView!.reloadData()
})
})
networkTask.resume()
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView!, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return tableData.count
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView!, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath!) -> UITableViewCell! {
let cell: UITableViewCell = UITableViewCell(style: UITableViewCellStyle.Subtitle, reuseIdentifier: "MyTestCell")
let redditEntry : NSMutableDictionary = self.tableData[indexPath.row] as NSMutableDictionary
cell.textLabel.text = redditEntry["data"]!["title"] as String
cell.detailTextLabel.text = redditEntry["data"]!["author"] as String
return cell
}
}
