Adding data as many as indexPath - Swift - swift

Question

I draw data from the database, assign the data I have taken to LINKSTRING. The data I have assigned is the link and I am viewing the photos using this link. For example, there are 5 data I have assigned to LINKSTRING how can I assign these 5 data to photos variable. I want to add up to x photos in LINKSTRING.
Example:
self.photos = [CustomPhotoModel (imageURL: URL (string: "\ (self.LINKSTRING [0])"), thumbnailImageURL: URL (string: "\ (self.LINKSTRING [0]))"))] self.photos = [CustomPhotoModel (imageURL: URL (string: "\ (self.LINKSTRING [1])"), thumbnailImageURL: URL (string: "\ (self.LINKSTRING [1]))"))]
How do I assign variables in the form?
import UIKit
import INSPhotoGallery
class CustomModelViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var collectionView: UICollectionView!
lazy var photos = [CustomPhotoModel]()
var LINKSTRING : [String] = []
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
fillWithYORUM()
collectionView.delegate = self
collectionView.dataSource = self
}
func fillWithYORUM() {
let client = SQLClient.sharedInstance()!
client.connect("...", username: "...", password: "...", database: "...") { success in
client.execute("SELECT ... FROM ...", completion: { (_ results: ([Any]?)) in
var gifsa: [String] = []
for table in results as! [[[String:AnyObject]]] {
for row in table {
for (_, value) in row {
if let intVal = value as? String {
gifsa.append(String(intVal)) }} }}
DispatchQueue.main.async {
self.photos = [CustomPhotoModel(imageURL: URL(string: "\(LINKSTRING)"), thumbnailImageURL: URL(string: "\(LINKSTRING)"))]
self.collectionView.reloadData()
}
client.disconnect()
}) } }
}
extension CustomModelViewController: UICollectionViewDataSource, UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout {
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: "ExampleCollectionViewCell", for: indexPath) as! ExampleCollectionViewCell
cell.populateWithPhoto(photos[(indexPath as NSIndexPath).row])
return cell
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, numberOfItemsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return photos.count
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, didSelectItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
let cell = collectionView.cellForItem(at: indexPath) as! ExampleCollectionViewCell
let currentPhoto = photos[(indexPath as NSIndexPath).row]
let galleryPreview = INSPhotosViewController(photos: photos, initialPhoto: currentPhoto, referenceView: cell)
galleryPreview.referenceViewForPhotoWhenDismissingHandler = { [weak self] photo in
if let index = self?.photos.firstIndex(where: {$0 === photo}) {
let indexPath = IndexPath(item: index, section: 0)
let cell = collectionView.cellForItem(at: indexPath) as? ExampleCollectionViewCell
return cell
}
return nil
}
present(galleryPreview, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
}

Answer 1

you just need to append the data to your photos array like this:
if LINKSTRING.count > 0 {
for photoUrl in LINKSTRING {
let data = CustomPhotoModel (imageURL: URL (string: photoUrl), thumbnailImageURL: URL (string: photoUrl)]
self.photos.append(data)
}
}
