# Reachability.swift

Reachability.swift is a replacement for Apple's Reachability sample, re-written in Swift with closures.

It is compatible with **iOS** (8.0 - 12.0), **OSX** (10.9 - 10.14) and **tvOS** (9.0 - 12.0)

Inspired by https://github.com/tonymillion/Reachability

## Installation
### Manual
Just drop the **Reachability.swift** file into your project. That's it!

### CocoaPods
[CocoaPods][] is a dependency manager for Cocoa projects. To install Reachability.swift with CocoaPods:

1. Make sure CocoaPods is [installed][CocoaPods Installation].

2. Update your Podfile to include the following:

``` ruby
use_frameworks!
pod 'ReachabilitySwift'
```

3. Run `pod install`.

[CocoaPods]: https://cocoapods.org
[CocoaPods Installation]: https://guides.cocoapods.org/using/getting-started.html#getting-started

4. In your code import Reachability like so:
`import Reachability`

### Carthage
[Carthage][] is a decentralized dependency manager that builds your dependencies and provides you with binary frameworks.
To install Reachability.swift with Carthage:

1. Install Carthage via [Homebrew][]
```bash
$ brew update
$ brew install carthage
```

2. Add `github "ashleymills/Reachability.swift"` to your Cartfile.

3. Run `carthage update`.

4. Drag `Reachability.framework` from the `Carthage/Build/iOS/` directory to the `Linked Frameworks and Libraries` section of your Xcode project’s `General` settings.

5. Add `$(SRCROOT)/Carthage/Build/iOS/Reachability.framework` to `Input Files` of Run Script Phase for Carthage.

6. In your code import Reachability like so:
`import Reachability`

### Swift Package Manager (SPM)
The Swift Package Manager is a tool for automating the distribution of Swift code and is integrated into the swift compiler. To integrate using Apple's Swift package manager from xcode :

1. File -> Swift Packages -> Add Package Dependency...

2. Enter package URL : https://github.com/ashleymills/Reachability.swift, choose the latest release

## Example - closures

NOTE: All closures are run on the **main queue**.

```swift
//declare this property where it won't go out of scope relative to your listener
let reachability = try! Reachability()

reachability.whenReachable = { reachability in
if reachability.connection == .wifi {
print("Reachable via WiFi")
} else {
print("Reachable via Cellular")
}
}
reachability.whenUnreachable = { _ in
print("Not reachable")
}

do {
try reachability.startNotifier()
} catch {
print("Unable to start notifier")
}
```

and for stopping notifications

```swift
reachability.stopNotifier()
```

## Example - notifications

NOTE: All notifications are delivered on the **main queue**.

```swift
//declare this property where it won't go out of scope relative to your listener
let reachability = try! Reachability()

//declare this inside of viewWillAppear

NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(reachabilityChanged(note:)), name: .reachabilityChanged, object: reachability)
do{
try reachability.startNotifier()
}catch{
print("could not start reachability notifier")
}
```

and

```swift
@objc func reachabilityChanged(note: Notification) {

let reachability = note.object as! Reachability

switch reachability.connection {
case .wifi:
print("Reachable via WiFi")
case .cellular:
print("Reachable via Cellular")
case .unavailable:
print("Network not reachable")
}
}
```

and for stopping notifications

```swift
reachability.stopNotifier()
NotificationCenter.default.removeObserver(self, name: .reachabilityChanged, object: reachability)
```
