Hi guys,
I hope you are doing fine.
I am trying to achieve following thing:
) Fetch data array from database (async call)
) Iterate over fetched data array
) Fetch additional information about each object (async call)
) Create a new data array with all the information and return it back
Currently, I have following approach
self.dataAccessService.fetchRepliesByCommentId(completionHandler: { (commentReplyArray) in
for var i in 0..<commentReplyArray.count {
let commentReply = commentReplyArray[i]
let commentItem = CommentItem()
self.fetchDetailsAboutCommentReply(commentReplyObject: commentReply) { (commentItem) in
commentItem.commentObject = commentReply
dataSource.insert(commentItem, at: index + i + 1) -> APP CRASHES HERE, i is never 0 here
ips.append(IndexPath(row: index + i + 1 , section: 0))
if (i == commentReplyArray.count - 1) {
self.delegate?.didLoadReplies(dataSource: dataSource, ips: ips)
}
}
}
}, commentId: commentItem.commentObject.id)
My fetchDetailsAboutCommentReply function:
private func fetchDetailsAboutCommentReply(commentReplyObject:CommentReply, completionHandler:@escaping(CommentItem)->()) {
let group = DispatchGroup()
let commentItem = CommentItem()
group.enter()
self.dataAccessService.fetchUserById(completionHandler: { (userObject) in
commentItem.userObject = userObject
group.leave()
}, uid: commentReplyObject.userId)
group.enter()
self.dataAccessService.fetchDownloadURLOfProfileImage(organizerId: commentReplyObject.userId) { (contentURL) in
commentItem.userObject.contentURL = contentURL
group.leave()
}
group.notify(queue: .main) {
completionHandler(commentItem)
}
}
My question is how, I can change my code, so the loop basically "pauses" until I fetch every detail information of the iterated object, add it into the dataSource Array and then continues with the next one?
Thanks and stay healthy!
