这个方法将从一个网站异步下载图像并缓存它:

    func getImageFromWeb(_ urlString: String, closure: @escaping (UIImage?) -> ()) {
        guard let url = URL(string: urlString) else {
return closure(nil)
        }
        let task = URLSession(configuration: .default).dataTask(with: url) { (data, response, error) in
            guard error == nil else {
                print("error: \(String(describing: error))")
                return closure(nil)
            }
            guard response != nil else {
                print("no response")
                return closure(nil)
            }
            guard data != nil else {
                print("no data")
                return closure(nil)
            }
            DispatchQueue.main.async {
                closure(UIImage(data: data!))
            }
        }; task.resume()
    }

在使用:

    getImageFromWeb("http://www.apple.com/euro/ios/ios8/a/generic/images/og.png") { (image) in
        if let image = image {
            let imageView = UIImageView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 200, height: 200))
            imageView.image = image
            self.view.addSubview(imageView)
        } // if you use an Else statement, it will be in background
    }

干净的方式:

extension URL {
    var favIcon16: UIImage? { getFav(ofSize: .s) }
    var favIcon32: UIImage? { getFav(ofSize: .m) }
    var favIcon64: UIImage? { getFav(ofSize: .l) }
    var favIcon128: UIImage? { getFav(ofSize: .xl) }
    var favIcon256: UIImage? { getFav(ofSize: .xxl) }
    var favIcon512: UIImage? { getFav(ofSize: .xxxl) }

    private func getFav(ofSize s: FavSize) -> UIImage? {
        guard UIApplication.shared.canOpenURL(self),
              let favUrl = URL(string: "https://www.google.com/s2/favicons?sz=\(s.rawValue)&domain=\(self.absoluteURL)"),
              let data = try? Data(contentsOf: favUrl)
        else { return nil }
        return UIImage(data: data)
 }
    private enum FavSize: Int, CaseIterable { case s = 16, m = 32, l = 64, xl = 128, xxl = 256, xxxl = 512 }
}

和用法:

let myUrl = URL(string: "http://facebook.com")
myImgView.image = myUrl.favIcon16

(Swift 4更新) 为了直接回答最初的问题，下面是发布的Objective-C代码片段的快速等效版本。

let url = URL(string: image.url)
let data = try? Data(contentsOf: url!) //make sure your image in this url does exist, otherwise unwrap in a if let check / try-catch
imageView.image = UIImage(data: data!)

免责声明:

需要注意的是，Data(contentsOf:)方法将在执行代码的同一线程中同步下载url的内容，因此不要在应用程序的主线程中调用此方法。

让相同的代码异步运行，而不阻塞UI的简单方法是使用GCD:

let url = URL(string: image.url)

DispatchQueue.global().async {
    let data = try? Data(contentsOf: url!) //make sure your image in this url does exist, otherwise unwrap in a if let check / try-catch
    DispatchQueue.main.async {
        imageView.image = UIImage(data: data!)
    }
}

也就是说，在现实生活中的应用程序中，如果您希望获得最佳的用户体验并避免同一映像的多次下载，您可能还希望不仅下载它们，而且缓存它们。已经有相当多的库可以无缝地做到这一点，而且它们都非常易于使用。我个人推荐翠鸟:

import Kingfisher

let url = URL(string: "url_of_your_image")
// this downloads the image asynchronously if it's not cached yet
imageView.kf.setImage(with: url) 

就是这样

编辑为最新更改2021年9月

// It's better to use extension 
extension UIImageView {
func downloadImage(from URLString: String, with completion: @escaping (_ response: (status: Bool, image: UIImage? ) ) -> Void) {
    guard let url = URL(string: URLString) else {
        completion((status: false, image: nil))
        return
    }
    
    URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: url) { data, response, error in
        guard error == nil else {
            completion((status: false, image: nil))
            return
        }
        
        guard let httpURLResponse = response as? HTTPURLResponse,
              httpURLResponse.statusCode == 200,
              let data = data else {
            completion((status: false, image: nil))
            return
        }
        
        let image = UIImage(data: data)
        completion((status: true, image: image))
    }.resume()
}
}

快乐的鳕鱼。欢呼:)

extension UIImageView {
    func load(url: URL) {
        DispatchQueue.global().async { [weak self] in
            if let data = try? Data(contentsOf: url) {
                if let image = UIImage(data: data) {
                    DispatchQueue.main.async {
                        self?.image = image
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

使用

override func awakeFromNib() {
    super.awakeFromNib()
   if let url = URL(string:"<imageURLHere>"){
     imgView.load(url: url)
   }
}

Swift 2.0:

1)

if let url = NSURL(string: "http://etc...") {
    if let data = NSData(contentsOfURL: url) {
        imageURL.image = UIImage(data: data)
    }        
}

OR

imageURL.image =
    NSURL(string: "http:// image name...")
    .flatMap { NSData(contentsOfURL: $0) }
    .flatMap { UIImage(data: $0) }

2)将此方法添加到VC或Extension中。

func load_image(urlString:String)
{   let imgURL: NSURL = NSURL(string: urlString)!
    let request: NSURLRequest = NSURLRequest(URL: imgURL)

    NSURLConnection.sendAsynchronousRequest(request, queue: NSOperationQueue.mainQueue()) { (response: NSURLResponse?, data: NSData?, error: NSError?) in

        if error == nil {
            self.image_element.image = UIImage(data: data)
        }
    }
}

用法:

self.load_image(" url strig here")
