Getting started with parsing (MediaWiki) API


I want to create an iOS App that can parse the MediaWiki API so I can display articles etc.

I found ASIHTTPRequest but the developer is no longer working on it. What should I use instead of this? Or what documentations should I read to get started with this topic?


Solution

  • If you haven't worked with writing async networking code on iOS, then I would start with the URL Loading System Programming Guide from Apple first. You can use another wrapper library like AFNetworking if you prefer another level of abstraction, though I would still suggestion learning the URL Loading System as a first step.
