Using SDWebImage with Images on Amazon S3: A Brief Tutorial from MAZ

For those who don’t know how to read and write code, the “backend” of an app often goes unnoticed when using your phone or computer. But everything that you, as an end user, consider to work well comes from what you don’t see: the code.

For those who do know about code, the below script will make a lot of sense! Let's begin with two terms I'd like to discuss, relating to how an iPhone app user views images that are sourced from the web.

SDWebImage: A handy iOS library, which scours the internet to download, cache and display web-sourced images.

Amazon S3 Server: An encrypted cloud storage service provided by Amazon for storing images.

You may use or have heard about MAZ’s new mobile browser Stream Web (available free for iOS here), for which I am a developer. The whole concept behind Stream Web requires images to be stored and recalled instantaneously. I was introduced to SDWebImage when we began work on Stream, the flagship feature behind Stream Web and our app publishing platform.

I noticed that using S3 with SDWebImage could be pretty powerful for developers, but also realized that some developers might not be able to figure out how to use them together since SDWebImage does not support S3 validation (at least not yet!). Delving into the SDWebImage source to code around this issue would not be too helpful, because if a new version of SDWebImage were to be released, the developer would have to redo everything. Instead, a better approach (provided here) would be to keep SDWebImage untouched, and to intercept all its download requests and handle the S3 server downloads via the Amazon S3 SDK.

If you’d like to see what I mean, try the following:

1) Set up SDWebImage and Amazon's S3 SDKs (with credentials)

// File: AmazonClientManager.m

+ (void)validateCredentials

{

    // ...

    s3 = [[AmazonS3Client alloc] initWithAccessKey:<YOUR ACCESS KEY> withSecretKey:<YOUR SECRET KEY>];

    // ...

}

2) Subclass NSURL Protocol

// File: S3URLProtocol.h

@interface S3URLProtocol : NSURLProtocol

@end

// File: S3URLProtocol.m

#import "S3URLProtocol.h"

#import "AmazonClientManager.h"

#define kS3BucketName <YOUR BUCKET NAME>

@interface S3URLProtocol() <AmazonServiceRequestDelegate>

@property (strong, nonatomic) S3GetObjectRequest *getRequest;

@end

@implementation S3URLProtocol

// All registered protocols are asked if they can handle the request

+ (BOOL)canInitWithRequest:(NSURLRequest *)request

{

    // If the host is not Amazon S3 Server return 'NO' to indicate default handling

    if(![request.URL.host isEqualToString:[kS3BucketName stringByAppendingString:@".s3.amazonaws.com"]])

        return NO;

         // Yes we can handle it! Go 'startLoading'!

    return YES;

}

// Required method

+ (NSURLRequest *)canonicalRequestForRequest:(NSURLRequest *)request

{

    return request;

}

- (void)startLoading

{

    // Extract the key from the request

    NSString *key = self.request.URL.path;

    key = [key substringFromIndex:1];

         // Create a 'S3GetObjectRequest' with your bucket and the extracted key

    self.getRequest = [[S3GetObjectRequest alloc] initWithKey:key withBucket:kS3BucketName];

         // Set delegate to ourselves to handle various callbacks.

    self.getRequest.delegate = self;

         // And fire the download. The 'AmazonClientManager' will handle the 'Authentication' for us.

    [[AmazonClientManager s3] getObject:self.getRequest];

}

- (void)stopLoading

{

    // If someone cancels this, cancel the 'S3GetObjectRequest' in turn.

    [self.getRequest cancel];

    self.getRequest = nil;

}

// The 'AmazonServiceRequestDelegate' callbacks

- (void)request:(AmazonServiceRequest *)request didReceiveResponse:(NSURLResponse *)response

{

    // We received a response, pass it on to the client (SDWebImage).

    [self.client URLProtocol:self didReceiveResponse:response cacheStoragePolicy:NSURLCacheStorageAllowed];

}

- (void)request:(AmazonServiceRequest*)request didReceiveData:(NSData*)data

{

    // We received some data, pass it on to the client (SDWebImage).

    [self.client URLProtocol:self didLoadData:data];

}

- (void)request:(AmazonServiceRequest *)request didCompleteWithResponse:(AmazonServiceResponse *)response

{

    // Download complete! Notify client (SDWebImage) and cleanup.

    [self.client URLProtocolDidFinishLoading:self];

    self.getRequest = nil;

}

- (void)request:(AmazonServiceRequest *)request didFailWithError:(NSError *)error

{

    // Some error encountered! Notify client (SDWebImage) and cleanup.

    [self.client URLProtocol:self didFailWithError:error];

    self.getRequest = nil;

}

@end

3) Finally, hook up our shiny new "S3URLProtocol" by adding (just once!) this line to your initialization code:

[NSURLProtocol registerClass:[S3URLProtocol class]];

Now simply use the SDWebImage's categories e.g. [imageView setImageWithURL:

<IMAGE FILE URL> ...]; the host of <IMAGE FILE URL> should be equal to "<YOUR BUCKET NAME>.s3.amazonaws.com ".

Now you can use the power of the Amazon S3 cloud servers with SDWebImage in your own apps! How neat is that?

SDWebImage and lazy loading of images in UITableViewCells

I have been slowly switching image views from EGOImageView to SDWebImage in my projects because of better performance and maintainability, especially in asynchronous loading as it uses GCD and blocks behind the scenes.

Asynchronous loading of images in table view cells is an interesting problem because by the time the image is downloaded, the user might have already scrolled the corresponding cell offscreen. As cells are reused in the table view, there is a possibility that users may see the wrong image briefly appear in a cell's image view before the correct image appears.

Surprisingly, preventing this is easy, as UITableView has a method indexPathsForVisibleRows that returns an array of the index paths of the currently visible rows. At the same time, SDWebImage allows you to access its internal asynchronous downloader and use it independently of the image view. The downloader has a completion block which you can use to check if image it just finished downloading needs to be shown, and assign the downloaded image to the image view if it should be shown.

The code is as follows.

Dynamic Annotations (MKAnnotationView) for iOS MapKit

Author: Mohith KM

Annotations in a map on iOS is pretty straightforward. And dynamically loading an image into UIImageView can be achieved by many good extensions like SDWebImage . But how do you combine these two and display images asynchronously in an annotation? The answer is to customize MKAnnotationView. Custom MKAnnotationView You can extend MKAnnotationView in conjunction with SDWebImage. Here are the key parts of the custom class MKAnnotationView+WebCache.m:

#import "MKAnnotationView+WebCache.h" #import "SDWebImageManager.h" #import "SDImageCache.h" @implementation MKAnnotationView(WebCache) - (void)setImageWithURL:(NSURL *)url { [self setImageWithURL:url placeholderImage:nil]; } - (void)setImageWithURL:(NSURL *)url placeholderImage:(UIImage *)placeholder { SDWebImageManager *manager = [SDWebImageManager sharedManager]; [manager cancelForDelegate:self]; [self setImage:placeholder]; if (url) { [manager downloadWithURL:url delegate:self]; } } - (void)cancelCurrentImageLoad { [[SDWebImageManager sharedManager] cancelForDelegate:self]; } - (void)webImageManager:(SDWebImageManager *)imageManager didFinishWithImage:(UIImage *)image { [self setImage:image]; } @end

  Here is how you can use the above custom class in your project:

- (MKAnnotationView *)mapView:(MKMapView *)mapView viewForAnnotation:(id )annotation { CustomAnnotation *anno = (CustomAnnotation *)annotation; static NSString *defaultPinID = @"customIdentifier"; MKAnnotationView *pinView = (MKAnnotationView *)[self.mapview dequeueReusableAnnotationViewWithIdentifier:defaultPinID]; if (pinView == nil) pinView = [[[MKAnnotationView alloc] initWithAnnotation:anno reuseIdentifier:defaultPinID] autorelease]; pinView.opaque = NO; pinView.canShowCallout = NO; pinView.draggable = NO; pinView.annotation = anno; NSURL *ImageURL = [NSURL URLWithString:IMAGE_URL_STRING]; [pinView setImageWithURL:ImageURL placeholderImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"loading.png"]]; return pinView; }
