Wormholy and other dependencies working with URLSessions

[Alex601t]

When both Wormholy and Alamofire 5 are installed as dependencies in project, Wormholy affects on correct Alamofire working, in particular:

When application uploading data via Alamofire 5:

AF.upload(multipartFormData: { multipartFormData in
multipartFormData.append(data, withName: "data")
}, to: urlString)
.uploadProgress { progress in
    print(progress)
}
 .response { resp in
    print(respect)
} 

uploadProgress closure is not being called. After deinstalling Wormholy from the project Alamofire 5 is working correctly.

Hi there. What version of Xcode and Swift are you using?

[Alex601t]

Hi there. What version of Xcode and Swift are you using?

Xcode Version 11.2.1, Swift 5.0

Thanks Alex. @kealdishx this can be a good example of a call that doesn't work like expected.

[kealdishx]

OK, I will take a look at the issue and make a reponse if anything updated.

[kealdishx]

It seems that there is no way for your URLProtocol subclass to call URLSession:task:didSendBodyData:totalBytesSent:totalBytesExpectedToSend: method, so upload progress will never be called. @pmusolino

[pmusolino]

Interesting @kealdishx. Do you have the demo project where you tried it? I'll try to work on it unless you've already started working on it.

[kealdishx]

That's just a guess.I found something from apple-ios-example:

Similarly, there is no way for your NSURLProtocol subclass to call the NSURLConnection delegate's -connection:needNewBodyStream: or -connection:didSendBodyData:totalBytesWritten:totalBytesExpectedToWrite: methods (rdar://problem/9226155 and rdar://problem/9226157). The latter is not a serious concern--it just means that your clients don't get upload progress--but the former is a real issue. If you're in a situation where you might need a second copy of a request body, you will need your own logic to make that copy, including the case where the body is a stream.

I don't have free time recently, so I haven't proved it yet. Do you have interest in going on with it?Or I'll solve the issue when I'm free. @pmusolino

@kealdishx same as you. I'll try to fix it asap, but if you found some free time and you have the possibility to take a look at it, I will be grateful to you! 🙇‍♂️

I have a similar issue going on in my project. I installed this pod azure-notificationhubs-ios and it has a method that makes a network request. When having Wormholy Installed the network request always times out. When removing Wormholy, the request gets called just fine and doesn't timeout.

[pmusolino]

Hey @gblock92 can you retry using the latest version released some hours ago please? https://github.com/pmusolino/Wormholy/releases/tag/1.6.3

[gblock92]

@pmusolino I updated the pod to the latest version (1.6.3) and it looks like the issue is still there. The request still times out when Wormholy is added.

Hello! Our development team is unable to use wormholy due to this issue. @pmusolino Can we have an update on this please? We would greatly appreciate the resolution of this problem. 🙏

Hi, I'm facing a similar issue. I can't make the delegate get called until the whole request is ignored by Wormholy (works fine when I uncomment the line in viewDidLoad).

import UIKit
import Wormholy

class ViewController: UIViewController {

    lazy var session: URLSession = URLSession(configuration: .default, delegate: self, delegateQueue: nil)

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
//        Wormholy.ignoredHosts = ["httpbin.org"]

        var request = URLRequest(url: URL(string: "https://httpbin.org/post")!)
        request.httpMethod = "POST"
        let data = Data(count: 10_000)
        let task: URLSessionUploadTask = session.uploadTask(
            with: request,
            from: data
        ) { data, response, error in
            print("task done")
        }
        task.resume()
    }
}

extension ViewController: URLSessionTaskDelegate {
    func urlSession(
        _ session: URLSession,
        task: URLSessionTask,
        didSendBodyData bytesSent: Int64,
        totalBytesSent: Int64,
        totalBytesExpectedToSend: Int64
    ) {
        print("bytesSent: \(bytesSent)")
    }
}

I was trying to get upload progress. Neither Alamofire or NSURLSesssion works. It took me awhile to figure this out. I have seen many similar cases on stackoverflow. Unbeknown to a lot of people (including me), most thought it's the issue with alamofire.

Hi. I am having the same issue in my project, we are using a new API and that specific host is not working when using Wormholy. All other APIs' hosts we have implemented works fine. Only this one is problematic when using Wormholy.

I am using Wormholy 1.6.4 and Xcode 12.5.

[pmusolino]

I released a new (big) version of Wormholy (1.6.5) with some improvements and fixes. https://github.com/pmusolino/Wormholy/releases/tag/1.6.5 Can you test it and let me know if you are still encountering this issue?

[cernym46]

Unfortunately the problem persists

[gauravborole]

Checked with latest version Wormholy (1.6.5), problem still persists. uploadProgress closure is not getting called. It works after removing Wormholy from the project.
