What is AIURLCache?
AIURLCache is a class that extends NSURLCache to allow you to save specific resources on disk for later use. This results in faster, more responsive user interfaces, especially in UIWebView.
How it works
When you specify the URL and MIME type AIURLCache will examine each request and either do default caching or save the file on disk and next time you make the request it will return cached version from a disk. You can specify when the files expire.
Installation
Drag AIURLCache
folder into your project.
Usage
(see sample Xcode project in /Demo
)
-
Import
AIURLCache.h"
file in yourAppDelegate.h
file. -
In the
(BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
method instantiateAIURLCache
class
AIURLCache *sharedCache = [[AIURLCache alloc] initWithMemoryCapacity:[capacityInBytes] diskCapacity: [capacityInBytes] diskPath:@"[directoryName]"];
- Set URL and MIME type to cache
For example, if you would like to cache all .png
files in http://www.mydomain.com/images
for one week.
[sharedCache cacheResourcesForURL:@"http://www.mydomain.com/images" withMIMEType:png timeOutInterval:60*60*24*7];
AIURLCache
provides enum for MIME types:
png = image/png
jpeg,jpg = image/jpeg
css = text/css
js = application/javascript
html = text/html
allImages = image/jpeg or image/png
all
- Set your app's cache to use
AIURLCache
[NSURLCache setSharedURLCache:sharedCache];
