How to separate two URLs in a String in Swift?

Question

What is the best way to split this String into two using Swift?

"https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/http://nusoft.fnal.gov/nova/public/img/FD-evt-echo.gif"

I only need the second part of url in the String. In this example, in this case I just need:

"http://nusoft.fnal.gov/nova/public/img/FD-evt-echo.gif"

Hi Samuel, you should write logic to fix this error which is from Nasa APOD API. This is already opened in their Github [repo](https://github.com/nasa/apod-api/issues/6) Check and keep follow the issue so you will get to know when there'll be an update. — Hemang, Oct 04 '18 at 06:22

let str = "https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/http://nusoft.fnal.gov/nova/public/img/FD-evt-echo.gif"

if let lastStr = str.components(separatedBy: "http").last
{      
    let result = "http" + lastStr
    print(result) 
}

Console Output: http://nusoft.fnal.gov/nova/public/img/FD-evt-echo.gif
