swift 3.1 reading CSV or PLIST file from web
I'd like to use readStringFromURL method to obtain a file from a plist and then use it on insertDataInArrayFromPlist in order to display it or put it on CoreData, substituting let path = Bundle.main.path(forResource: plistFileName, ofType: plistFileExtension)
.
the ISSUE the try statement gives me this ERROR
Argument labels '(contentsOfURL:, usedEncoding:)' do not match any available overloads
in my viewDidLoad:
let obtainedfile = readStringFromURL(stringURL: kremoteSamplePlist)
print(obtainedfile ?? "nothing to print")
I retrive the file from web
func readStringFromURL(stringURL:String)-> String!{
if let url = NSURL(string: stringURL) {
do {
return try String(contentsOfURL: url, usedEncoding: nil)
} catch {
print("Cannot load contents")
return nil
}
} else {
print("String was not a URL")
return nil
}
}
then I put the data in a struct
func insertDataInArrayFromPlist(arrayOfEntities: inout [product]) {
let path = Bundle.main.path(forResource: plistFileName, ofType: plistFileExtension)
let localArray = NSArray(contentsOfFile: path!)!
for dict in localArray {
var futureEntity = product()
let bdict = dict as! [String: AnyObject]
futureEntity.name = bdict["Name"] as? String
futureEntity.ProductId = bdict["Product Id"] as? String
arrayOfEntities.append(futureEntity)
}
for element in arrayOfEntities {
print("name is (element.name!), the id is (element.ProductId!)")
}
}

Theres a library available via Cocoapods, CSV.swift by Yaslab. Allows you to import a csv directly in Swift code and convert to a data type of your own. Does the job for me.
