Let's go straight into code.
First in appDelegate, I register my connection protocol:
[NSURLProtocol registerClass:[MyURLConnection class]];
Here's what my connection class looks like:
+(BOOL)canInitWithRequest:(NSURLRequest *)request {
return YES;
}
-(void)startLoading {
if (self.cachedResponse) {
NSLog(@"there is a cached response %@", self.cachedResponse);
}
MyNetworkSession *task = [MyNetworkSession new];
task.request = self.request;
task.urlClient = self.client;
task.isDataTask = YES;
task.isBackgroundSession = YES;
[task start];
}
-(void)stopLoading {
// nothing here
}
Now, MyNetworkSession is the delegate for NSURLSession
tasks, like so:
// ----------- MyNetworkSession.h
@interface MyNetworkSession : NSObject
<NSURLSessionDelegate,
NSURLSessionTaskDelegate,
NSURLSessionDataDelegate>
-(void) start;
@end
//------------ MyNetworkSession.m
@implementation MyNetworkSession {
NSURLSessionDataTask *_dataTask;
NSURLSessionDownloadTask *_downloadTask;
}
// create session
-(NSURLSession*) session {
static NSURLSession *session = nil;
static dispatch_once_t onceToken;
dispatch_once(&onceToken, ^{
NSURLSessionConfiguration *backgroundConfiguration = [
NSURLSessionConfiguration backgroundSessionConfigurationWithIdentifier:
BACKGROUND_SESSION_IDENTIFIER];
backgroundConfiguration.requestCachePolicy = NSURLRequestUseProtocolCachePolicy;
session = [NSURLSession
sessionWithConfiguration:backgroundConfiguration
delegate:self
delegateQueue:nil];
});
return session;
}
// start download/data task
-(void)start {
if (self.isDataTask){
_dataTask = [self.session dataTaskWithRequest:self.request];
[_dataTask resume];
}
}
#pragma mark- delegate methods
-(void)URLSession:(NSURLSession *)session
task:(NSURLSessionTask *)task
didCompleteWithError:(NSError *)error {
if (error) {
NSLog(@"Error in connection %@ for task %@", error, task.response.URL);
}
NSLog(@"completed response %@", task.response.URL.absoluteString);
_dataTask = nil;
_downloadTask = nil;
[self.urlClient URLProtocolDidFinishLoading:self.urlClient];
}
-(void)URLSession:(NSURLSession *)session
dataTask:(NSURLSessionDataTask *)dataTask
didReceiveResponse:(NSURLResponse *)response
completionHandler:(void (^)(NSURLSessionResponseDisposition))completionHandler {
NSLog(@"received response %@", response.URL.absoluteString);
[self.urlClient URLProtocol:self.urlClient
didReceiveResponse:responsecacheStoragePolicy:NSURLCacheStorageAllowedInMemoryOnly];
completionHandler(NSURLSessionResponseAllow);
}
-(void)URLSession:(NSURLSession *)session
dataTask:(NSURLSessionDataTask *)dataTask
didReceiveData:(NSData *)data {
NSLog(@"received data %@", dataTask.response.URL.absoluteString);
if (!self.data) {
self.data = [data mutableCopy];
} else {
[self.data appendData:data];
}
[self.urlClient URLProtocol:self.urlClient didLoadData:self.data];
}
//... some more methods
@end
That's all the relevant code I guess.
The problem is that when I see the response in a webview, I only get the <head>
tag of the document.
I am not getting the rest of the html. And also, the js/css files listed in the <head>
tag are not downloaded. Do you see any flaw in the implementation?
