I have been able to successfully upload images to firebase storage but have been unable to successfully download the image.
I have attempted to download images in all three of the suggested ways on Firebase Storage Guides:
1) Download to NSData in memory 2) Download to an NSURL representing a file on device 3) Generate an NSURL representing the file online
An example is below of two different attempts:
func loadProfileImage() {
guard let currentUser = Auth.auth().currentUser else { return }
let profilePhotoFile = "ProfileImages/" + currentUser.uid
let reference = Storage.storage().reference(withPath: profilePhotoFile)
#1st Attempt downloading to memory:
reference.getData(maxSize: 1 * 1024 * 1024) { (data, error) in
if let error = error {
print("an error occurred: \(error)")
print("see data response: \(data)")
} else {
self.profileView.image = UIImage(data: data!)
}
}
#2nd Attempt with download url:
reference.downloadURL { (url, error) in
if let error = error {
print(error)
} else {
self.profileView.sd_setImage(with: url, placeholderImage:
#imageLiteral(resourceName: "placeHolderProfileView")) {
(image, error, type, reference2) in
print("reference location of image in the google
bucket: \(reference2)")
print("error retrieving image: \(String(describing:
error))")
print("type: \(type)")
print("image details: \(String(describing: image))")
}
}
}
}
Also tried using alamofire instead of SDWebImage to see if error code was same and it is the same see below:
Error Domain=FIRStorageErrorDomain Code=-13000 "An unknown error occurred, please check the server response." UserInfo={object=ProfileImages/6I2RhzFI3edYNph9J4WsaXXXX, ResponseErrorCode=100, bucket=bXXXX-production.appspot.com, NSLocalizedDescription=An unknown error occurred, please check the server response., ResponseErrorDomain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain, _kCFStreamErrorDomainKey=1, NSErrorPeerAddressKey={length = 28, capacity = 28, bytes = 0x1c1e01bb000000002607f8b040090813 ... 0000200a00000000}, _kCFStreamErrorCodeKey=100}
I have checked and rechecked the google storage bucket location and believe I have the reference location correct (using the same as the upload file path which works correctly).
Any help would be much appreciated
Realized the error was in headers that were included when uploading the image:
I had originally listed the following with the upload, by commenting them out I was able to successfully download with SDWebImage and the suggestion from vbuzze.
let uploadMetadata = StorageMetadata() uploadMetadata.contentType = "image/jpeg" uploadMetadata.customMetadata = ["Profile Name" : currentUser.displayName] as? [String : String]
