在Swift 3.0中尝试以下实现

func delayWithSeconds(_ seconds: Double, completion: @escaping () -> ()) {
    DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + seconds) { 
        completion()
    }
}

使用

delayWithSeconds(1) {
   //Do something
}

使用DispatchQueue的. asyncafter方法，可以在给定时间后执行代码。例如，执行…在主线程中，1秒后看起来是这样的:

DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 1) { ... }

使用我方便的延迟包装器结构，你可以以更奇特的方式执行它:

struct Delay {

    @discardableResult
    init(_ timeInterval: TimeInterval, queue: DispatchQueue = .main, executingBlock: @escaping () -> Void) {
        queue.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + timeInterval, execute: executingBlock)
    }

}

用法:

Delay(0.4) { ... }

在Swift 3.0中尝试以下实现

func delayWithSeconds(_ seconds: Double, completion: @escaping () -> ()) {
    DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + seconds) { 
        completion()
    }
}

使用

delayWithSeconds(1) {
   //Do something
}

这是添加延迟的一种更简单的方式，不会影响线程执行。

let continueTime: Date = Calendar.current.date(byAdding: .second, value: 30, to: Date())!
while (Date() < continueTime) {
    //DO NOTHING
}

Using a dispatch_after block is in most cases better than using sleep(time) as the thread on which the sleep is performed is blocked from doing other work. when using dispatch_after the thread which is worked on does not get blocked so it can do other work in the meantime. If you are working on the main thread of your application, using sleep(time) is bad for the user experience of your app as the UI is unresponsive during that time. Dispatch after schedules the execution of a block of code instead of freezing the thread:

斯威夫特≥ 3.0

let seconds = 4.0
DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + seconds) {
    // Put your code which should be executed with a delay here
}

Swift≥5.5(异步):

func foo() async {
    try await Task.sleep(nanoseconds: UInt64(seconds * Double(NSEC_PER_SEC)))
    // Put your code which should be executed with a delay here
}

Swift < 3.0

let time = dispatch_time(dispatch_time_t(DISPATCH_TIME_NOW), 4 * Int64(NSEC_PER_SEC))
dispatch_after(time, dispatch_get_main_queue()) {
    // Put your code which should be executed with a delay here
}

作为之前建议的选项的替代解决方案，您可以使用基于DispatchGroup类的延迟，它被设计为同步多个异步任务的执行:

print("Start")
print(Date())

let delay = DispatchTimeInterval.seconds(3)
let group = DispatchGroup()
group.enter()
_ = group.wait(timeout: .now() + delay)

print("Finish")
print(Date())

其中，enter()方法用于显式地指示组代码的执行已经开始，wait(timeout:)方法用于等待组任务完成。当然，在本例中，这种情况永远不会发生，为此指定了一个超时，它等于所需的延迟。

使用它作为现成的帮手非常方便:

public class DispatchWait {
    private init () { }
    
    public static func `for` (_ interval: DispatchTimeInterval) {
        let group = DispatchGroup()
        group.enter()
        _ = group.wait(timeout: .now().advanced(by: interval))
    }
}

使用DispatchWait的示例:

print("Start")
print(Date())

DispatchWait.for(.seconds(3))

print("Finish")
print(Date())

不幸的是，我不能说这个延迟的准确性是多少，以及wait(timeout:)方法允许在指定的延迟之后继续执行程序的概率是多少。

此外，此解决方案允许您延迟当前队列中的代码，而不必在单独的闭包中执行它。
