I have the following code for requesting data from an external API:
var request = URLRequest(url: myURL!, cachePolicy: .useProtocolCachePolicy, timeoutInterval: 10.0)
request.httpMethod = "GET"
request.allHTTPHeaderFields = headers
let session = URLSession.shared
let dataTask = session.dataTask(with: request as URLRequest, completionHandler: { data, response, error in
if error != nil {
print(error)
} else {
let httpResponse = response as? HTTPURLResponse
}
})
dataTask.resume()
The timeoutInterval
is set to 10.0
. But how can I get back info on if the request/session timed out, or how long the request/session took the complete? I will then use that info to determine which function I should call.
Any help is much appreciated!
If the error is not nil
then cast error as URLError
and check the code
is .timeout
or not. Here is the code.
var request = URLRequest(url: myURL!, cachePolicy: .useProtocolCachePolicy, timeoutInterval: 10.0)
request.httpMethod = "GET"
request.allHTTPHeaderFields = headers
let session = URLSession.shared
let dataTask = session.dataTask(with: request as URLRequest, completionHandler: { (data, response, error) -> Void in
if (error != nil) {
if let error = error as? URLError {
if error.code == .timedOut {
print("Timeout error")
}
}
print(error)
} else {
let httpResponse = response as? HTTPURLResponse
}
})
dataTask.resume()
