Monitor for new devices connected - swift

Question

I would like my macOS application to be constantly notified whenever a new device is connected to the computer such as mobile devices or USBs.
I have the following code that I am trying to get working below.
The problem with it is that after adding let example = Example() to my viewDidLoad, it only calls the functions once when the program first starts. How can I make it still check for devices after the program has already launched?
import Foundation
import IOKit
import IOKit.usb
public protocol USBWatcherDelegate: class {
/// Called on the main thread when a device is connected.
func deviceAdded(_ device: io_object_t)
/// Called on the main thread when a device is disconnected.
func deviceRemoved(_ device: io_object_t)
}
/// An object which observes USB devices added and removed from the system.
/// Abstracts away most of the ugliness of IOKit APIs.
public class USBWatcher {
private weak var delegate: USBWatcherDelegate?
private let notificationPort = IONotificationPortCreate(kIOMasterPortDefault)
private var addedIterator: io_iterator_t = 0
private var removedIterator: io_iterator_t = 0
public init(delegate: USBWatcherDelegate) {
self.delegate = delegate
func handleNotification(instance: UnsafeMutableRawPointer?, _ iterator: io_iterator_t) {
let watcher = Unmanaged<USBWatcher>.fromOpaque(instance!).takeUnretainedValue()
let handler: ((io_iterator_t) -> Void)?
switch iterator {
case watcher.addedIterator: handler = watcher.delegate?.deviceAdded
case watcher.removedIterator: handler = watcher.delegate?.deviceRemoved
default: assertionFailure("received unexpected IOIterator"); return
}
while case let device = IOIteratorNext(iterator), device != IO_OBJECT_NULL {
handler?(device)
IOObjectRelease(device)
}
}
let query = IOServiceMatching(kIOUSBDeviceClassName)
let opaqueSelf = Unmanaged.passUnretained(self).toOpaque()
// Watch for connected devices.
IOServiceAddMatchingNotification(
notificationPort, kIOMatchedNotification, query,
handleNotification, opaqueSelf, &addedIterator)
handleNotification(instance: opaqueSelf, addedIterator)
// Watch for disconnected devices.
IOServiceAddMatchingNotification(
notificationPort, kIOTerminatedNotification, query,
handleNotification, opaqueSelf, &removedIterator)
handleNotification(instance: opaqueSelf, removedIterator)
// Add the notification to the main run loop to receive future updates.
CFRunLoopAddSource(
CFRunLoopGetMain(),
IONotificationPortGetRunLoopSource(notificationPort).takeUnretainedValue(),
.commonModes)
}
deinit {
IOObjectRelease(addedIterator)
IOObjectRelease(removedIterator)
IONotificationPortDestroy(notificationPort)
}
}
extension io_object_t {
/// - Returns: The device's name.
func name() -> String? {
let buf = UnsafeMutablePointer<io_name_t>.allocate(capacity: 1)
defer { buf.deallocate(capacity: 1) }
return buf.withMemoryRebound(to: CChar.self, capacity: MemoryLayout<io_name_t>.size) {
if IORegistryEntryGetName(self, $0) == KERN_SUCCESS {
return String(cString: $0)
}
return nil
}
}
}

class Example: USBWatcherDelegate {

func deviceAdded(_ device: io_object_t) {
print("device added: \(device.name() ?? "<unknown>")")
}
func deviceRemoved(_ device: io_object_t) {
print("device removed: \(device.name() ?? "<unknown>")")
}
