你可以很容易地下载图像从图像url翠鸟。

首先进口翠鸟as-

pod 'Kingfisher'

然后在类中以-的形式导入它

import Kingfisher

之后添加一个临时的UIImageView

let imgView = UIImageView()
imgView.kf.setImage(with: yourImageURL)

if let finalImage = imgView.image {
    // finalImage is your image
}

这是最简单的方法，你不必担心async，或者它是如何工作的。

import SDWebImage

imageView.sd_setImage(with: URL(string: ".net/path/to/image.jpg"), placeholderImage: UIImage(named: "placeholder.png"))
Using UIImageView+WebCache category with UI

这里有一篇关于它的详细博文。

Swift 4.1我创建了一个函数，只是传递图像url，图像生成后缓存键设置为完成块。

   class NetworkManager: NSObject {
  
  private var imageQueue = OperationQueue()
  private var imageCache = NSCache<AnyObject, AnyObject>()
  
  func downloadImageWithUrl(imageUrl: String, cacheKey: String, completionBlock: @escaping (_ image: UIImage?)-> Void) {
    
    let downloadedImage = imageCache.object(forKey: cacheKey as AnyObject)
    if let  _ = downloadedImage as? UIImage {
      completionBlock(downloadedImage as? UIImage)
    } else {
      let blockOperation = BlockOperation()
      blockOperation.addExecutionBlock({
        let url = URL(string: imageUrl)
        do {
          let data = try Data(contentsOf: url!)
          let newImage = UIImage(data: data)
          if newImage != nil {
            self.imageCache.setObject(newImage!, forKey: cacheKey as AnyObject)
            self.runOnMainThread {
              completionBlock(newImage)
            }
          } else {
            completionBlock(nil)
          }
        } catch {
          completionBlock(nil)
        }
      })
      self.imageQueue.addOperation(blockOperation)
      blockOperation.completionBlock = {
        print("Image downloaded \(cacheKey)")
      }
    }
  }
}
extension NetworkManager {
  fileprivate func runOnMainThread(block:@escaping ()->Void) {
    if Thread.isMainThread {
      block()
    } else {
      let mainQueue = OperationQueue.main
      mainQueue.addOperation({
        block()
      })
    }
  }
}

Swift 4.2和AlamofireImage

如果使用库不是问题，您可以通过AlamofireImage的帮助来完成。 我的样本来自它的Github

占位符图片

let imageView = UIImageView(frame: frame)
let url = URL(string: "https://httpbin.org/image/png")!
let placeholderImage = UIImage(named: "placeholder")!
imageView.af_setImage(withURL: url, placeholderImage: placeholderImage)

它有许多方便的功能和扩展工作与图像。从缓存到缩放和调整大小，甚至在图像上应用过滤器。如果图像在你的应用中很重要，我建议使用这个框架来节省你的时间。

Xcode 12•Swift 5

Leo Dabus的答案非常棒!我只是想提供一个一体化的功能解决方案:

if let url = URL(string: "http://www.apple.com/euro/ios/ios8/a/generic/images/og.png") {
    let task = URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: url) { data, response, error in
        guard let data = data, error == nil else { return }
        
        DispatchQueue.main.async { /// execute on main thread
            self.imageView.image = UIImage(data: data)
        }
    }
    
    task.resume()
}

供你参考:对于swift-2.0 Xcode7.0 beta2

extension UIImageView {
    public func imageFromUrl(urlString: String) {
        if let url = NSURL(string: urlString) {
            let request = NSURLRequest(URL: url)
            NSURLConnection.sendAsynchronousRequest(request, queue: NSOperationQueue.mainQueue()) {
            (response: NSURLResponse?, data: NSData?, error: NSError?) -> Void in
                self.image = UIImage(data: data!)
            }
        }
    }
}
