I'm using ASIHTTPRequest to communicat开发者_如何学编程e with the server asynchronously. It works great, but I'm doing requests in different controllers and now duplicated methods are in all those controllers. What is the best way to abstract that code (requests) in a single class, so I can easily re-use the code, so I can keep the controllers more simple. I can put it in a singleton (or in the app delegate), but I don't think that's a good approach. Or maybe make my own protocol for it with delegate callback.
Any advice on a good design approach would be helpful. Thanks.
I am using subclasses of Ben Copsey's ASIHTTPRequest
very heavily for a web service client I hope to finish in the next couple weeks. It's a great project and his work has saved me a great deal of time and effort.
I have an ASINetworkQueue
set up in the application delegate. The queue is sent the -go
message so that it is ready to receive requests. I add my subclassed requests to this queue. Each request is processed and issues its notifications, and my view controller handles the response data accordingly.
What I have done is subclass ASIHTTPRequest
and:
- Set up an
-init
method (or-initWithParams:
method, depending on the request) - Override
-requestFailed:
and-requestCompleted:
to handle HTTP error messages coming back from the web service - My view controllers register to observe
NSNotification
notifications that come from error handling in the-requestCompleted:
method
As view controllers are pushed on and popped off the navigation stack, I add and remove different registrations. Some view controllers only need to listen for certain subclassed request types.
Listening for NSNotification
allows me to issue UIAlertView
dialogs to let the user know something went wrong, or to handle the request response data (feeding results into a Core Data store, for example) when the request yields a successful HTTP error.
Whether the request succeeds or fails, I remember to -release
the request when I'm done with it.
I've written a singleton class to handle this.
static TCHttpRequest *_sharedHttpRequest = nil;
+ (id)sharedRequest
{
@synchronized(self){
if (_sharedHttpRequest == nil) {
_sharedHttpRequest = [[self alloc] init];
}
}
return _sharedHttpRequest;
}
- (NSDictionary *)loginWithUserName:(NSString *)user password:(NSString *)pwd
{
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"/login" relativeToURL:_url];
ASIFormDataRequest *request = [ASIFormDataRequest requestWithURL:url];
[request setCachePolicy:ASICacheForSessionDurationCacheStoragePolicy];
[request setTimeOutSeconds:HTTP_REQ_TIMEOUT];
[request addPostValue:user forKey:@"username"];
[request addPostValue:pwd forKey:@"password"];
request.delegate = self.delegate;
[_common_queue addOperation:request];
}
I do not see how the class method and the instance method are related? The class method instantiates TCHttpRequest and guarantees only a single instance. The loginWithUserName instance method instantiates a ASIFormDataRequest and adds it to a common queue. I do not see any reuse here?
