Swift 4:一个简单的小图像加载器(例如:缩略图)，使用NSCache，总是运行在主线程上:

class ImageLoader {

  private static let cache = NSCache<NSString, NSData>()

  class func image(for url: URL, completionHandler: @escaping(_ image: UIImage?) -> ()) {

    DispatchQueue.global(qos: DispatchQoS.QoSClass.background).async {

      if let data = self.cache.object(forKey: url.absoluteString as NSString) {
        DispatchQueue.main.async { completionHandler(UIImage(data: data as Data)) }
        return
      }

      guard let data = NSData(contentsOf: url) else {
        DispatchQueue.main.async { completionHandler(nil) }
        return
      }

      self.cache.setObject(data, forKey: url.absoluteString as NSString)
      DispatchQueue.main.async { completionHandler(UIImage(data: data as Data)) }
    }
  }

}

用法:

ImageLoader.image(for: imageURL) { image in
  self.imageView.image = image
}

我把这个问题的最佳答案的代码包装成一个单一的，可重用的类扩展UIImageView，所以你可以直接在你的故事板中使用异步加载UIImageViews(或从代码中创建它们)。

这是我的班级:

import Foundation
import UIKit

class UIImageViewAsync :UIImageView
{

    override init()
    {
        super.init(frame: CGRect())
    }

    override init(frame:CGRect)
    {
        super.init(frame:frame)
    }

    required init(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
        super.init(coder: aDecoder)
    }

    func getDataFromUrl(url:String, completion: ((data: NSData?) -> Void)) {
        NSURLSession.sharedSession().dataTaskWithURL(NSURL(string: url)!) { (data, response, error) in
            completion(data: NSData(data: data))
        }.resume()
    }

    func downloadImage(url:String){
        getDataFromUrl(url) { data in
            dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue()) {
                self.contentMode = UIViewContentMode.ScaleAspectFill
                self.image = UIImage(data: data!)
            }
        }
    }
}

下面是如何使用它:

imageView.downloadImage("http://www.image-server.com/myImage.jpg")

供你参考:对于swift-2.0 Xcode7.0 beta2

extension UIImageView {
    public func imageFromUrl(urlString: String) {
        if let url = NSURL(string: urlString) {
            let request = NSURLRequest(URL: url)
            NSURLConnection.sendAsynchronousRequest(request, queue: NSOperationQueue.mainQueue()) {
            (response: NSURLResponse?, data: NSData?, error: NSError?) -> Void in
                self.image = UIImage(data: data!)
            }
        }
    }
}

Xcode 8或更高版本•Swift 3或更高版本

同步:

if let filePath = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "imageName", ofType: "jpg"), let image = UIImage(contentsOfFile: filePath) {
    imageView.contentMode = .scaleAspectFit
    imageView.image = image
}

异步:

创建一个带有完成处理程序的方法，从您的url获取图像数据

func getData(from url: URL, completion: @escaping (Data?, URLResponse?, Error?) -> ()) {
    URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: url, completionHandler: completion).resume()
}

创建一个方法来下载映像(启动任务)

func downloadImage(from url: URL) {
    print("Download Started")
    getData(from: url) { data, response, error in
        guard let data = data, error == nil else { return }
        print(response?.suggestedFilename ?? url.lastPathComponent)
        print("Download Finished")
        // always update the UI from the main thread
        DispatchQueue.main.async() { [weak self] in
            self?.imageView.image = UIImage(data: data)
        }
    }
}

用法:

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    print("Begin of code")
    let url = URL(string: "https://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/macOS-Mojave-Dynamic-Wallpaper-transition.jpg")! 
    downloadImage(from: url)
    print("End of code. The image will continue downloading in the background and it will be loaded when it ends.")
}

扩展:

extension UIImageView {
    func downloaded(from url: URL, contentMode mode: ContentMode = .scaleAspectFit) {
        contentMode = mode
        URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: url) { data, response, error in
            guard
                let httpURLResponse = response as? HTTPURLResponse, httpURLResponse.statusCode == 200,
                let mimeType = response?.mimeType, mimeType.hasPrefix("image"),
                let data = data, error == nil,
                let image = UIImage(data: data)
                else { return }
            DispatchQueue.main.async() { [weak self] in
                self?.image = image
            }
        }.resume()
    }
    func downloaded(from link: String, contentMode mode: ContentMode = .scaleAspectFit) { 
        guard let url = URL(string: link) else { return }
        downloaded(from: url, contentMode: mode)
    }
}

用法:

imageView.downloaded(from: "https://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/macOS-Mojave-Dynamic-Wallpaper-transition.jpg")

斯威夫特4

这个方法将从一个网站异步下载图像并缓存它:

    func getImageFromWeb(_ urlString: String, closure: @escaping (UIImage?) -> ()) {
        guard let url = URL(string: urlString) else {
return closure(nil)
        }
        let task = URLSession(configuration: .default).dataTask(with: url) { (data, response, error) in
            guard error == nil else {
                print("error: \(String(describing: error))")
                return closure(nil)
            }
            guard response != nil else {
                print("no response")
                return closure(nil)
            }
            guard data != nil else {
                print("no data")
                return closure(nil)
            }
            DispatchQueue.main.async {
                closure(UIImage(data: data!))
            }
        }; task.resume()
    }

在使用:

    getImageFromWeb("http://www.apple.com/euro/ios/ios8/a/generic/images/og.png") { (image) in
        if let image = image {
            let imageView = UIImageView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 200, height: 200))
            imageView.image = image
            self.view.addSubview(imageView)
        } // if you use an Else statement, it will be in background
    }

Swift 4.2和AlamofireImage

如果使用库不是问题，您可以通过AlamofireImage的帮助来完成。 我的样本来自它的Github

占位符图片

let imageView = UIImageView(frame: frame)
let url = URL(string: "https://httpbin.org/image/png")!
let placeholderImage = UIImage(named: "placeholder")!
imageView.af_setImage(withURL: url, placeholderImage: placeholderImage)

它有许多方便的功能和扩展工作与图像。从缓存到缩放和调整大小，甚至在图像上应用过滤器。如果图像在你的应用中很重要，我建议使用这个框架来节省你的时间。
