How to turn the iPhone camera flash on/off swift 2?

Question

I was looking how to turn on/off the iPhone's camera flash and I found this:

@IBAction func didTouchFlashButton(sender: AnyObject) {
    let avDevice = AVCaptureDevice.defaultDeviceWithMediaType(AVMediaTypeVideo)

// check if the device has torch
if avDevice.hasTorch {
    // lock your device for configuration
    avDevice.lockForConfiguration(nil)
    // check if your torchMode is on or off. If on turns it off otherwise turns it on
    if avDevice.torchActive {
        avDevice.torchMode = AVCaptureTorchMode.Off
    } else {
        // sets the torch intensity to 100%
        avDevice.setTorchModeOnWithLevel(1.0, error: nil)
    }
    // unlock your device
    avDevice.unlockForConfiguration()
    }
}

I do get 2 issues, one on the line:

avDevice.lockForConfiguration(nil)

and the other on the line:

avDevice.setTorchModeOnWithLevel(1.0, error:nil)

both of them are related to exception handling but I don't know how to resolve them.

@IBAction func didTouchFlashButton(sender: UIButton) {
    let avDevice = AVCaptureDevice.defaultDeviceWithMediaType(AVMediaTypeVideo)

    // check if the device has torch
    if avDevice.hasTorch {
        // lock your device for configuration
        do {
            let abv = try avDevice.lockForConfiguration()
        } catch {
            print("aaaa")
        }

        // check if your torchMode is on or off. If on turns it off otherwise turns it on
        if avDevice.torchActive {
            avDevice.torchMode = AVCaptureTorchMode.Off
        } else {
            // sets the torch intensity to 100%
            do {
                let abv = try avDevice.setTorchModeOnWithLevel(1.0)
            } catch {
                print("bbb")
            }
        //    avDevice.setTorchModeOnWithLevel(1.0, error: nil)
        }
        // unlock your device
        avDevice.unlockForConfiguration()
    }
}
