Fetch NYTimes Api to show news.

1.0

• Xcode 9.3 or later
• iOS 9.0 or later
• macOS 10.13 or later

We will be building this app using Xcode 9.3 with Swift 4.0. This app will also consume the NYTimes API Service built to get news according to days.

• Xcode 9.0
• Swift 4.0

• SDWebImage (This library provides an async image downloader with cache support.)
• Reachablity (Provided by apple for network monitoring)
• SwiftLint (A tool to enforce Swift style and conventions, loosely based on GitHub's Swift Style Guide.)

This sample is written in Swift.

• CocoaPods - CocoaPods is a dependency manager for Swift and Objective-C Cocoa projects. It has over 33 thousand libraries and is used in over 2.2 million apps. CocoaPods can help you scale your projects elegantly.
• SonarQube 7.2.1 - SonarQube provides the capability to not only show health of an application but also to highlight issues newly introduced. With a Quality Gate in place, you can fix the leak and therefore improve code quality systematically.
• SwiftLint - A tool to enforce Swift style and conventions.
• Sonar-swift 0.3.7 - This is an open source plugin for Apple Swift language support in SonarQube.

• MVC

Model-View-Controller (MVC) is one of the building blocks of Cocoa and is undoubtedly the most-used design pattern of all. It classifies objects according to their general role in your application and encourages clean separation of code based on role.

• Facade

The Facade design pattern provides a single interface to a complex subsystem. Instead of exposing the user to a set of classes and their APIs, you only expose one simple unified API.

• Decorator

The Decorator pattern dynamically adds behaviors and responsibilities to an object without modifying its code. It’s an alternative to subclassing where you modify a class’s behavior by wrapping it with another object.

In Swift, there are two very common implementations of this pattern: Extensions and Delegation.

• API class : AppApiManager
• MVC pattern used (recommanded by Apple)
• Ready to fetch others section or period (see Parameters struct).
• Modular enough to add others calls from NY Times API.
• Ready for background fetch (using URLSession with delegate).
• Unit Testing using XCTest
• UI Testing using XCUITest
• CI/CD - Sonar Qube
