翠鸟是一个最好的库加载图像到URL。

Github URL - https://github.com/onevcat/Kingfisher

// If you want to use Activity Indicator.
imageview_pic.kf.indicatorType = .activity
imageview_pic.kf.setImage(with: URL(string: "Give your url string"))

// If you want to use custom placeholder image.
imageview_pic.kf.setImage(with: URL(string: "Give your url string"), placeholder: UIImage(named: "placeholder image name"), options: nil, progressBlock: nil, completionHandler: nil)

如果你只是想加载图像(异步!)-只需添加这个小扩展到你的swift代码:

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
                if let imageData = data as NSData? {
                    self.image = UIImage(data: imageData)
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

然后这样用:

myImageView.imageFromUrl("https://robohash.org/123.png")

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。

一种获取图像的方法是安全的，适用于Swift 2.0和X-Code 7.1:

static func imageForImageURLString(imageURLString: String, completion: (image: UIImage?, success: Bool) -> Void) {
    guard let url = NSURL(string: imageURLString),
        let data = NSData(contentsOfURL: url),
        let image = UIImage(data: data)
        else { 
            completion(image: nil, success: false); 
            return 
       }

    completion(image: image, success: true)
}

然后你可以像这样调用这个方法:

imageForImageURLString(imageString) { (image, success) -> Void in
        if success {
            guard let image = image 
                 else { return } // Error handling here 
            // You now have the image. 
         } else {
            // Error handling here.
        }
    }

如果你要用图像更新视图，你必须在" If success{"后面加上这个:

    dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue()) { () -> Void in
         guard let image = image 
              else { return } // Error handling here 
         // You now have the image. Use the image to update the view or anything UI related here
         // Reload the view, so the image appears
    }

The reason this last part is needed if you are using the image in the UI is because network calls take time. If you try to update the UI using the image without calling dispatch_async like above, the computer will look for the image while the image is still being fetched, find that there is no image (yet), and move on as if there was no image found. Putting your code inside of a dispatch_async completion closure says to the computer, "Go, get this image and when you are done, then complete this code." That way, you will have the image when the code is called and things will work well.

在使用SwiftUI时，SDWebImageSwiftUI是最好的选择。

通过XCode的Swift Package Manager添加依赖:https://github.com/SDWebImage/SDWebImageSwiftUI.git

然后使用WebImage()而不是Image()

WebImage(url: URL(string: "https://nokiatech.github.io/heif/content/images/ski_jump_1440x960.heic"))

一个快速的黑客，如果你想快速检查图像从url

 let imageURL = NSURL(string: "https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1591/26078338233_d1466b7da2_m.jpg")
 let imagedData = NSData(contentsOfURL: imageURL!)!
 imageView?.image = UIImage(data: imagedData)

我在一个tableview中实现了一个只有图像的自定义单元格

func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell{
        
        let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("theCell", forIndexPath: indexPath) as! customTableViewCell

        let imageURL = NSURL(string: "https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1591/26078338233_d1466b7da2_m.jpg")
        
        let imagedData = NSData(contentsOfURL: imageURL!)!
            
        cell.imageView?.image = UIImage(data: imagedData)
        
        return cell
        
    }
