ios之AFN

与asi-http-request功能类似的网络库，不过是基于NSURLConnection 和 NSOperation 的,同样支持iOS与MacOS双平台。目前的更新比较频繁，适合新项目使用，而且使用起来也更简单。

操作JSON

- (IBAction)jsonTapped:(id)sender {
    //
    NSString *weatherUrl = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@weather.php?format=json", BaseURLString];
    NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:weatherUrl];
    NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url];

    //
    AFJSONRequestOperation *operation =
    [AFJSONRequestOperation JSONRequestOperationWithRequest:request
        //
        success:^(NSURLRequest *request, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, id JSON) {
            self.weather  = (NSDictionary *)JSON;
            self.title = @"JSON Retrieved";
            [self.tableView reloadData];
        }
        //
        failure:^(NSURLRequest *request, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, NSError *error, id JSON) {
            UIAlertView *av = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Error Retrieving Weather"
                                                         message:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",error]
                                                        delegate:nil
                                               cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil];
            [av show];
        }];

    //
    [operation start];
}

1. 根据基本的URL构造出完整的一个URL。然后通过这个完整的URL获得一个NSURL对象，然后根据这个url获得一个NSURLRequest.
2. AFJSONRequestOperation 是一个功能完整的类（all-in-one）— 整合了从网络中获取数据并对JSON进行解析。
3. 当请求成功，则运行成功块（success block）。在本示例中，把解析出来的天气数据从JSON变量转换为一个字典（dictionary），并将其存储在属性 weather 中.
4. 如果运行出问题了，则运行失败块（failure block），比如网络不可用。如果failure block被调用了，将会通过提示框显示出错误信息。

操作Property Lists(plists)

 -(IBAction)plistTapped:(id)sender{
    NSString *weatherUrl = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@weather.php?format=plist",BaseURLString];
    NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:weatherUrl];
    NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url];

    AFPropertyListRequestOperation *operation =
    [AFPropertyListRequestOperation propertyListRequestOperationWithRequest:request
        success:^(NSURLRequest *request, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, id propertyList) {
            self.weather  = (NSDictionary *)propertyList;
            self.title = @"PLIST Retrieved";
            [self.tableView reloadData];
        }
        failure:^(NSURLRequest *request, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, NSError *error, id propertyList) {
            UIAlertView *av = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Error Retrieving Weather"
                              message:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",error]
                                                        delegate:nil
                                               cancelButtonTitle:@"OK"
                                               otherButtonTitles:nil];
            [av show];
    }];

    [operation start];
}

上面的代码几乎与JSON版的一致，只不过将操作（operation）的类型从AFJSONOperation 修改为 AFPropertyListOperation.

操作XML

- (IBAction)xmlTapped:(id)sender{
    NSString *weatherUrl = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@weather.php?format=xml",BaseURLString];
    NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:weatherUrl];
    NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url];

    AFXMLRequestOperation *operation =
    [AFXMLRequestOperation XMLParserRequestOperationWithRequest:request
        success:^(NSURLRequest *request, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, NSXMLParser *XMLParser) {
            //self.xmlWeather = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
            XMLParser.delegate = self;
            [XMLParser setShouldProcessNamespaces:YES];
            [XMLParser parse];
        }
        failure:^(NSURLRequest *request, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, NSError *error, NSXMLParser *XMLParser) {
            UIAlertView *av = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Error Retrieving Weather"
                                                         message:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",error]
                                                        delegate:nil
                                               cancelButtonTitle:@"OK"
                                               otherButtonTitles:nil];
            [av show];
    }];

    [operation start];
}

到现在为止，这看起来跟之前处理JSON和plist很类似。最大的改动就是在成功块（success block）中, 在这里不会传递给你一个预处理好的NSDictionary对象. 而是AFXMLRequestOperation实例化的NSXMLParse对象，这个对象将用来处理繁重的XML解析任务。

NSXMLParse对象有一组delegate方法是你需要实现的 — 用来获得XML数据。注意，在上面的代码中我将XMLParser的delegate设置为self, 因此WTTableViewController将用来处理XML的解析任务。

下载图片

UIImageView *imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.0f, 0.0f, 100.0f, 100.0f)];
[imageView setImageWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://i.imgur.com/r4uwx.jpg"] placeholderImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"placeholder-avatar"]];

- (IBAction)updateBackgroundImage:(id)sender {

    //Store this image on the same server as the weather canned files
    NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.scott-sherwood.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/scene.png"]];
    AFImageRequestOperation *operation = [AFImageRequestOperation imageRequestOperationWithRequest:request
        imageProcessingBlock:nil
        success:^(NSURLRequest *request, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, UIImage *image) {
            self.backgroundImageView.image = image;
            [self saveImage:image withFilename:@"background.png"];
        }
        failure:^(NSURLRequest *request, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, NSError *error) {
            NSLog(@"Error %@",error);
    }];
    [operation start];
}

-(void)saveImage:(UIImage *)image withFilename:(NSString *)filename{

    NSString *path;
    NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
    path = [[paths objectAtIndex:] stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"WeatherHTTPClientImages/"];

    BOOL isDir;

    if(![[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileExistsAtPath:path isDirectory:&isDir]){
        if(!isDir){
            NSError *error;
            [[NSFileManager defaultManager] createDirectoryAtPath:path withIntermediateDirectories:YES attributes:nil error:&error];

            NSLog(@"%@",error);
        }
    }

    path = [path stringByAppendingPathComponent:filename];
    NSData *imageData = UIImagePNGRepresentation(image);
    NSLog(@"Written: %d",[imageData writeToFile:path atomically:YES]);
}

AFHTTPClient

AFHTTPClient一般是给它设置一个基本的URL，然后用AFHTTPClient进行多个请求（而不是像之前的那样，每次请求的时候，都创建一个AFHTTPClient）。

- (void)actionSheet:(UIActionSheet *)actionSheet clickedButtonAtIndex:(NSInteger)buttonIndex{

    if(buttonIndex==){
        NSURL *baseURL = [NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:BaseURLString]];
        NSDictionary *parameters = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:@"json" forKey:@"format"];

        AFHTTPClient *client = [[AFHTTPClient alloc] initWithBaseURL:baseURL];
        [client registerHTTPOperationClass:[AFJSONRequestOperation class]];
        [client setDefaultHeader:@"Accept" value:@"application/json"];

        [client postPath:@"weather.php"
              parameters:parameters
                 success:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject) {
                     self.weather = responseObject;
                     self.title = @"HTTP POST";
                     [self.tableView reloadData];
                 }
                 failure:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error) {
                     UIAlertView *av = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Error Retrieving Weather"
                                                                  message:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",error]
                                                                 delegate:nil
                                                        cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil];
                     [av show];

                 }
         ];
    }
    else if (buttonIndex==){
        NSURL *baseURL = [NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:BaseURLString]];
        NSDictionary *parameters = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:@"json" forKey:@"format"];

        AFHTTPClient *client = [[AFHTTPClient alloc] initWithBaseURL:baseURL];
        [client registerHTTPOperationClass:[AFJSONRequestOperation class]];
        [client setDefaultHeader:@"Accept" value:@"application/json"];

        [client getPath:@"weather.php"
             parameters:parameters
                success:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject) {
                    self.weather = responseObject;
                    self.title = @"HTTP GET";
                    [self.tableView reloadData];
                }
                failure:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error) {
                    UIAlertView *av = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Error Retrieving Weather"
                                                                 message:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",error]
                                                                delegate:nil
                                                       cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil];
                    [av show];

                }
         ];
    }
}

1. 构建一个baseURL，以及一个参数字典，并将这两个变量传给AFHTTPClient.
2. 将AFJSONRequestOperation注册为HTTP的操作, 这样就可以跟之前的示例一样，可以获得解析好的JSON数据。
3. 做了一个GET请求，这个请求有一对block：success和failure。
4. POST请求跟GET一样。

上传一个文件

NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://api-base-url.com"];
AFHTTPClient *httpClient = [[AFHTTPClient alloc] initWithBaseURL:url];
NSData *imageData = UIImageJPEGRepresentation([UIImage imageNamed:@"avatar.jpg"], 0.5);
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [httpClient multipartFormRequestWithMethod:@"POST" path:@"/upload" parameters:nil constructingBodyWithBlock: ^(id <AFMultipartFormData>formData) {
    [formData appendPartWithFileData:imageData name:@"avatar" fileName:@"avatar.jpg" mimeType:@"image/jpeg"];
}];

AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation = [[AFHTTPRequestOperation alloc] initWithRequest:request];
[operation setUploadProgressBlock:^(NSUInteger bytesWritten, long long totalBytesWritten, long long totalBytesExpectedToWrite) {
    NSLog(@"Sent %lld of %lld bytes", totalBytesWritten, totalBytesExpectedToWrite);
}];
[httpClient enqueueHTTPRequestOperation:operation];

下载一个文件

NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://localhost:8080/encode"]];

AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation = [[AFHTTPRequestOperation alloc] initWithRequest:request];
operation.inputStream = [NSInputStream inputStreamWithFileAtPath:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"large-image" ofType:@"tiff"]];
operation.outputStream = [NSOutputStream outputStreamToMemory];
[operation start];
