I am using AFNetworking in my iOS app and for all the GET requests it makes, I build the url from a base URL and than add parameters using NSDictionary Key-Value pairs.
The problem is that I need same key for different values.
Here is an example of what I need the finally URL to look like -
http://example.com/.....&id=21212&id=21212&id=33232
It's not possible in NSDictionary to have different values in same keys. So I tried NSSet but did not work.
let productIDSet: Set = [prodIDArray]
let paramDict = NSMutableDictionary()
paramDict.setObject(productIDSet, forKey: "id")
All you need is URLComponents
(or NSURLComponents in Obj-C). The basic idea is to create a bunch of query items for your id's. Here's code you can paste into a playground:
import Foundation
import XCPlayground
let queryItems = [URLQueryItem(name: "id", value: "1"), URLQueryItem(name: "id", value: "2")]
var urlComps = URLComponents(string: "www.apple.com/help")!
urlComps.queryItems = queryItems
let result = urlComps.url!
print(result)
You should see an output of
www.apple.com/help?id=1&id=2
