如何使用Firebase Web从指向Firebase存储的链接中保存图像？

Question

In my iOS App I want to display an image of a webcam: https://www.alpenblickzeneggen.ch/fileadmin/user_upload/webcamBild.jpg .

But with iOS 10 and AppTransportSecurity and all those problems I think it's better to do it otherwise:

• Get the image from the link with Firebase for the web
• Save that image to Firebase storage
• Download the image in my iOS App from Firebase storage

But, how can I do that? Is it possible?

So long as the site is using reasonably modern ciphers, ATS isn't going to be a problem here...

If you're already storing your image somewhere else, just use something like SDWebImage to download and display your image:

@import SDWebImage

imageView.sd_setImage(with: URL(string: "https://www.alpenblickzeneggen.ch/fileadmin/user_upload/webcamBild.jpg"), placeholderImage: UIImage(named: "placeholder.png"))

If the image is changing, and you need a place to store that data, Firebase Storage is a good choice.
