I have a problem with my swift. I am trying to send an API request and then retrieve data but I get the following error message:
"Swift: Escaping closure captures non-escaping parameter 'onCompletion'".
Does anyone know how I can solve this? Code:
typealias ServiceResponse = (JSON, NSError?) -> Void
class RestApiManager: NSObject {
static let sharedInstance = RestApiManager()
let baseURL = "http://api.randomuser.me/"
func getRandomUser(onCompletion : (JSON) -> Void) {
makeHTTPGetRequest(path: baseURL, onCompletion: { json, err -> Void in
onCompletion(json)
})
}
func makeHTTPGetRequest(path: String, onCompletion: ServiceResponse) {
let request = NSMutableURLRequest(url : URL(string: path)! as URL)
let session = URLSession.shared
let task = session.dataTask(with: request as URLRequest, completionHandler: { data, response, error in
let json:JSON = JSON(data as Any)
onCompletion(json, error as NSError?)
})
task.resume()
}
}
You have to mark both completion handlers with @escaping
. Usually the compiler offers a fix
class RestApiManager: NSObject {
static let sharedInstance = RestApiManager()
let baseURL = "http://api.randomuser.me/"
func getRandomUser(onCompletion : @escaping (JSON) -> Void) {
makeHTTPGetRequest(path: baseURL, onCompletion: { json, err -> Void in
onCompletion(json)
})
}
func makeHTTPGetRequest(path: String, onCompletion: @escaping ServiceResponse) {
let request = NSMutableURLRequest(url : URL(string: path)! as URL)
let session = URLSession.shared
let task = session.dataTask(with: request as URLRequest, completionHandler: { data, response, error in
let json:JSON = JSON(data as Any)
onCompletion(json, error as NSError?)
})
task.resume()
}
}
