UIImageView, Load UIImage from remote URL

Question

This problems it's driving me crazy... I have this string url:
"verona-api.municipiumstaging.it/system/images/image/image/22/app_1920_1280_4.jpg" and I have to load this image in my imageView.

this is my code :

do {
    let url = URL(fileURLWithPath: "http://verona-api.municipiumstaging.it/system/images/image/image/22/app_1920_1280_4.jpg")
    let data = try Data(contentsOf: url)
    self.imageView.image = UIImage(data: data)
}
catch{
    print(error)
}

This throw the exception :

No such file or directory.

But if I search this url with a browser I can see the image correctly!

You are using wrong method to create URL. Try URLWithString instead of fileURLWithPath. fileURLWithPath is used to get image from local file path not from internet url.

or

do {
    let url = URL(string: "http://verona-api.municipiumstaging.it/system/images/image/image/22/app_1920_1280_4.jpg")
    let data = try Data(contentsOf: url)
    self.imageView.image = UIImage(data: data)
}
catch{
    print(error)
}
