A simple library for fetching your self-hosted remote config with caching capabilities.

Usage

Before being able to read the data you must create the RemoteSettings object and fetch the data. If the data was fetched and cached before you can read it right away.

/// Create the object
guard let settings = try? RemoteSettings(settingsJsonURLString: "https://api.github.com/users/github") else {
    return
}

/// Fetch the latest data
settings.refreshSettings(completion: { (error) in
    if let error = error {
        print(error)
    }

    /// Read the data
    let value: String? = try? settings.getValue(forKey: "login")
})

Reading a value in Swift:

/// Read the appropriate type via type interpolation
let value: String? = try? settings.getValue(forKey: "login")

Reading a value in Obj-C:

/// Use a specific getter
NSString *value = [settings getStringForKey:@"login"];

Basic access authentication:

let basicAuth = BasicAuthCredentials(login: "myLogin", password: "myPassword")

let settingsWithAuth = try? RemoteSettings(settingsJsonURLString: endpointWithAuth, basicAuth: basicAuth)

Facts

• The cached data is persistent and available after the app relaunch. It uses UserDefaults to store the cached data.

• The URL’s hash is used as the cache identifier, therefore the object with the same URL will override the existing key whereas the object with a different key can act independently.

• After initialisation, you must fetch the data is it is not happening automatically.
