• GIF image support.
• Easy to use.

At a glance

imageView.sf_setImage(#some image url string#)

That’s all!

Process image swift imageView.sf_setImage(url, options: [.ScaleToFill(size), .CornerRadius(8), .GaussianBlur(10)) // image would be processed in order and assign the result image to imageView.

Cache

var stringCache = Cache<String>(cacheDirectoryPath: cachePath)
// write to cache
stringCache.write(key, value: value)

// fetch from cache
let cachedString = stringCache.fetch(key)
