Installation
You can add Harbor to your project using CocoaPods or Swift Package Manager.
CocoaPods
Add the following line to your Podfile:
pod 'Harbor'
Swift Package Manager
Add the following to your Package.swift file:
dependencies: [
.package(url: "https://github.com/javiermanzo/Harbor.git")
]
Usage
Configuration
This provides a centralized way to manage common configuration.
Default Headers
You can include default headers in every request.
To configure the default headers:
await Harbor.setDefaultHeaderParameters([
"MY_CUSTOM_HEADER": "VALUE"
])
Auth Provider
You can implement the HAuthProviderProtocol if you need to handle authentication. Use the setAuthProvider method of the Harbor class to set the authentication provider.
You need to create a class that implements HAuthProviderProtocol:
class MyAuthProvider: HAuthProviderProtocol {
func getAuthorizationHeader() async -> HAuthorizationHeader {
// Return a HAuthorizationHeader instance
}
func authFailed() async {
// This method is called when the request receives a 401 status code
}
}
After that, set your Auth provider:
await Harbor.setAuthProvider(MyAuthProvider())
If the request class has the needsAuth property set to true, Harbor will call the getAuthorizationHeader method of the authentication provider to get the HAuthorizationHeader instance to set it in the header before executing the request.
Custom URLSession
Harbor allows you to set a custom URLSession for your requests, providing flexibility for advanced configurations such as custom caching, timeout settings, or additional protocols.
To set a custom URLSession, use the setCustomURLSession method:
let customSession = URLSession(configuration: .default)
await Harbor.setCustomURLSession(customSession)
mTLS Support
Harbor supports mutual TLS (mTLS) for enhanced security in API requests. This feature allows clients to present certificates to the server, ensuring both the client and server authenticate each other.
To set up mTLS, use the setMTLS method:
let mTLS = HmTLS(p12FileUrl: yourP12FileUrl, password: "yourPassword")
await Harbor.setMTLS(mTLS)
SSL Pinning
Harbor supports SSL Pinning to enhance the security of your API requests. SSL Pinning ensures that the client checks the server's certificate against a known pinned certificate, adding an additional layer of security.
To configure SSL Pinning, use the setSSlPinningSHA256 method:
let sslPinningSHA256 = "yourSHA256CertificateHash"
await Harbor.setSSlPinningSHA256(sslPinningSHA256)
Request Protocols
To make a request using Harbor, you need to create a class that implements one of the following protocols.
HGetRequestProtocol
Use the HGetRequestProtocol protocol if you want to send a GET request.
Extra Properties:
queryParameters: A dictionary of query parameters that will be added to the URL.Model: The result of the request will be parsed to this entity.
HPostRequestProtocol
Use the HPostRequestProtocol protocol if you want to send a POST request.
Extra Properties:
bodyParameters: A dictionary of parameters that will be included in the body of the request.bodyType: Specifies the type of data being sent in the body of the request. It can be either json or multipart.
HPatchRequestProtocol
Use the HPatchRequestProtocol protocol if you want to send a PATCH request.
Extra Properties:
bodyParameters: A dictionary of parameters that will be included in the body of the request.bodyType: Specifies the type of data being sent in the body of the request. It can be either json or multipart.
HPutRequestProtocol
Use the HPutRequestProtocol protocol if you want to send a PUT request.
Extra Properties:
bodyParameters: A dictionary of parameters that will be included in the body of the request.bodyType: Specifies the type of data being sent in the body of the request. It can be either json or multipart.
HDeleteRequestProtocol
Use the HDeleteRequestProtocol protocol if you want to send a DELETE request.
HRequestWithResultProtocol
Use the HRequestWithResultProtocol protocol if you want to parse the response into a specific model. This protocol requires you to define the type of model you expect in the response.
Extra Properties:
Model: The result of the request will be parsed to this entity.
Request Calling
Once the request class is created, you can execute the request using the request method.
Task {
let response = await MyRequestWithResult().request()
}
Response
HResponse
If you use a protocol different from HGetRequestProtocol or HRequestWithResultProtocol, the result of calling request() will be an HResponse enum.
switch response {
case .success:
break
case .error(let error):
break
}
HResponseWithResult
If you use HGetRequestProtocol or HRequestWithResultProtocol, the result of calling request() will be an HResponseWithResult enum.
switch response {
case .success(let result):
break
case .error(let error):
break
}
Cancel Request
You can cancel the task of the request if it is running. request() will return cancelled as an error case.
let task = Task {
let response = await MyRequestWithResult().request()
}
task.cancel()
Debug
You can print debug information about your request using the HDebugRequestProtocol protocol. Implement the protocol in the request class.
class MyRequest: HRequestWithResultProtocol, HDebugRequestProtocol {
var debugType: HDebugRequestType = .requestAndResponse
// ...
}
debugType defines what you want to print in the console. The options are none, request, response, or requestAndResponse.
When your request is called, you will see in the Xcode console the information about your request.
JSON RPC
Harbor also supports JSON RPC via the HarborJRPC package.
Installation
To use HarborJRPC, add the following import to your file:
import HarborJRPC
Configuration
Set URL
Use this method to set the URL for the JSON RPC requests:
HarborJRPC.setURL("https://api.example.com/")
Set JSON RPC Version
Use this method to set the JSON RPC version:
// It uses 2.0 as default
HarborJRPC.setJRPCVersion("2.0")
Request Protocol
HJRPCRequestProtocol
Use the HJRPCRequestProtocol protocol if you want to send a JRPC request.
Properties:
Model: The model that conforms to theCodableprotocol, representing the expected response structure.method: A string that represents the JRPC method to be called.needsAuth: A boolean indicating whether the request requires authentication.retries: The number of retries in case the request fails.headers: An optional dictionary con
