weak var tableView : UITableView!
var FilmArray = [String]()
let film_url = "https://www.testing.com/api/resources/films/1"
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return 1
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
// Getting the right element
//let films = FilmArray[indexPath.row]
// Instantiate a cell
//let cell = UITableViewCell(style: .subtitle, reuseIdentifier: "moviecell")
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "cell") as! FilmsAPITableViewCell
// cell.movieTitle.text = FilmArray[indexPath.row]
// Adding the right informations
cell.movieTitle.text = FilmArray[indexPath.row]
// Returning the cell
return cell
}
// #IBOutlet weak var FilmsView: UITableView!
// weak var tableView : UITableView!
// var FilmArray = [String]()
//
// let film_url = "https://www.distribber.com/api/resources/films/1"
//
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
let tableView = UITableView (frame:view.bounds)
view.addSubview(tableView)
self.tableView = tableView
tableView.dataSource = self
tableView.delegate = self
// func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
// return 1
// }
// func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
// // Getting the right element
// //let films = FilmArray[indexPath.row]

//}
let url:URL = URL(string: film_url)!
let session = URLSession.shared
let request = NSMutableURLRequest(url: url)
request.httpMethod = "GET"
request.setValue("masked", forHTTPHeaderField: "X-API-KEY")
request.setValue("masked=", forHTTPHeaderField: "Authorization")

let task = session.dataTask(with: request as URLRequest, completionHandler: {
(
data, response, error) in
guard let _:Data = data, let _:URLResponse = response , error == nil else {
return
}
let json: Any?
do

var parsedData = try JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: data!, options: []) as! [String:Any]
print(parsedData)
if let FilmArray = parsedData["films"] as? NSArray {
for movieTitle in FilmArray{
if let filmDict = movieTitle as? NSDictionary{
if let film = filmDict.value(forKey: "title") {
self.FilmArray.append(film as! String)
}
//OperationQueue.main.addOperation({
