How to use NetworkReachabilityManager in Alamofire

MuraliMohan picture MuraliMohan · Feb 16, 2016 · Viewed 33.5k times · Source

I want functionality similar to AFNetworking in Objective-C with Alamofire NetworkReachabilityManager in Swift:

//Reachability detection
[[AFNetworkReachabilityManager sharedManager] startMonitoring];
[[AFNetworkReachabilityManager sharedManager] setReachabilityStatusChangeBlock:^(AFNetworkReachabilityStatus status) {
    switch (status) {
        case AFNetworkReachabilityStatusReachableViaWWAN: {
            [self LoadNoInternetView:NO];
            break;
        }
        case AFNetworkReachabilityStatusReachableViaWiFi: {
            [self LoadNoInternetView:NO];
            break;
        }
        case AFNetworkReachabilityStatusNotReachable: {
            break;
        }
        default: {
            break;
        }
    }
}];

I am currently using the listener to know the status changes with network

let net = NetworkReachabilityManager()
net?.startListening()

Can someone describe how to support those use cases?

NetworkManager Class

class NetworkManager {

//shared instance
static let shared = NetworkManager()

let reachabilityManager = Alamofire.NetworkReachabilityManager(host: "www.google.com")

func startNetworkReachabilityObserver() {

    reachabilityManager?.listener = { status in
        switch status {

            case .notReachable:
                print("The network is not reachable")

            case .unknown :
                print("It is unknown whether the network is reachable")

            case .reachable(.ethernetOrWiFi):
                print("The network is reachable over the WiFi connection")

            case .reachable(.wwan):
                print("The network is reachable over the WWAN connection")

            }
        }

        // start listening
        reachabilityManager?.startListening()
   }
}

Start Network Reachability Observer

@UIApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate {

func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {

        // add network reachability observer on app start
        NetworkManager.shared.startNetworkReachabilityObserver()

        return true
    }
}
