RMImageLoader is a library for background image-loading.
- Background image-loading
- Download cancelation
- Caching in memory and on disk
- Extension for UIImageView
RMImageLoader allows you to download asynchronously images. In order to improve and avoid the number of connection, each image that it is being downloaded can have multiple subscribers. A subscriber is an AnyObject that is interested in the image. This way, you avoid downloading the same image several times. The download can't be canceled unless all the subcribers decided not to download it anymore. Otherwise, any subscriber that cancels it, will just be ignored when the download is ready.
Add to your Podfile
pod 'RMImageLoader'
In your class
import RMImageLoader
RMImageLoader.default.loadImage(url: yourUrl, subscriber: imageView, success: { image in
imageView.image = image
}, failure: { _ in
print("ouch")
})
or even faster
imageView.load(url: yourUrl)
imageView.cancel(url: yourUrl)
or
RMImageLoader.default.cancel(url: yourUrl, forSubscriber: imageView)
The default configuration can be used which will use the Retriever to download the images but any can be initialized with any class that implements the Retrieve protocol
The default implementation is using an NSCache to store the processed data:
- 100 MB disk space
- 20 MB memory space
You can inject your own URLSessionConfiguration
