What is the Swift 3 equivalent of NSURL.URLByAppendingPathComponent()?
As of Xcode 8 beta 4, it is named appendingPathComponent(_:)
, and does not throw.
static let archiveURL = documentsDirectory.appendingPathComponent("meals")
Also as Leo Dabus points out in the comments, your documentsDirectory
property will need changing to use urls(for:in:)
in beta 4:
static let documentsDirectory = FileManager.default.urls(for: .documentDirectory, in: .userDomainMask)[0]
(Note that I've made your property names lowerCamelCase
, as per the Swift API design guidelines. I would also recommend using FileManager.default
, rather than creating a new instance.)
You can take a look at Apple's latest API reference guide to see the API naming changes that have taken place in Swift 3.
It has now changed to appendingPathComponent(_:)
and it throws, so you need to wrap it in do - catch block
do { let archiveURL = try documentsDirectory?.appendingPathComponent("meals")} catch { print(error)}
Update
As per Xcode 8 beta 4, the appendingpathcomponent(_:)
do not throw error.
For relevant info see answer by @Hamish
func appendingPathComponent(String)
=> Returns a new URL made by appending a path component to the original URL.
static let archiveURL = documentsDirectory?.appendingPathComponent("meals")
If it is directory:
func appendingPathComponent(String, isDirectory: Bool)
=> Returns a new URL made by appending a path component to the original URL, along with a trailing slash if the component is designated a directory.
static let archiveURL = documentsDirectory?.appendingPathComponent("meals", isDirectory: true)
