README
AMSMB2
This is small Swift library for iOS, macOS and tvOS which wraps libsmb2 and allows to connect a SMB2/3 share and do file operation.
Install
Cocoapods / Carthage
Add this line to your pods file:
pod "AMSMB2"
Or add this to Cartfile:
github "amosavian/AMSMB2"
Manually
To have latest updates with ease, use this command on terminal to get a clone:
git clone https://github.com/amosavian/AMSMB2
You can update your library using this command in AMSMB2 folder:
git pull
if you have a git based project, use this command in your project's directory to add this project as a submodule to your project:
git submodule add https://github.com/amosavian/AMSMB2
Then drop AMSMB2.xcodeproj
to you Xcode workspace and add the framework to your Embeded Binaries in target.
Usage
Just read inline help to find what each function does. It's straightforward. It's thread safe and any queue.
To do listing files in directory and file operations you must use this template:
import AMSMB2
class SMBClient {
/// connect to: `smb://[email protected]/share`
let serverURL = URL(string: "smb://XXX.XXX.XX.XX")!
let credential = URLCredential(user: "guest", password: "", persistence: URLCredential.Persistence.forSession)
let share = "share"
lazy private var client = AMSMB2(url: self.serverURL, credential: self.credential)!
private func connect(handler: @escaping (Result<AMSMB2, Error>) -> Void) {
// AMSMB2 can handle queueing connection requests
client.connectShare(name: self.share) { error in
if let error = error {
handler(.failure(error))
} else {
handler(.success(self.client))
}
}
}
func listDirectory(path: String) {
connect { result in
switch result {
case .success(let client):
client.contentsOfDirectory(atPath: path) { result in
switch result {
case .success(let files):
for entry in files {
print("name:", entry[.nameKey] as! String,
", path:", entry[.pathKey] as! String,
", type:", entry[.fileResourceTypeKey] as! URLFileResourceType,
", size:", entry[.fileSizeKey] as! Int64,
", modified:", entry[.contentModificationDateKey] as! Date,
", created:", entry[.creationDateKey] as! Date)
}
case .failure(let error):
print(error)
}
}
case .failure(let error):
print(error)
}
}
}
func moveItem(path: String, to toPath: String) {
self.connect { result in
switch result {
case .success(let client):
client.moveItem(atPath: path, toPath: toPath) { error in
if let error = error {
print(error)
} else {
print("\(path) moved successfully.")
}
// Disconnecting is optional, it will be called eventually
// when `AMSMB2` object is freed.
// You may call it explicitly to detect errors.
client.disconnectShare(completionHandler: { (error) in
if let error = error {
print(error)
}
})
}
case .failure(let error):
print(error)
}
}
}
}
