Display image from firebase in a tableView

App Development

Hi

I have managed to display text from firebase in a tableview with this code

cell.textLabel?.text = posts[indexPath.row].caption

I wondered how i also can display uploaded images? I have already managed to upload the image to firebase but not be able to display together with my text.

Thanks in advance!

Hey Gustav,

This is a multi-step process.

  • First you have to get the URL to the image in Firebase storage.
  • Then you have to download the image data and create a new UIImage object with the data.
  • Finally, you can set the image to the image view for display

Are you a student in my paid courses? If so there’s an example in one of the lessons that I could point you to.

If not, no worries. I can point you to some Firebase documentation to grab the URL of the image. Then downloading is a matter of using basic iOS networking classes or an image helper library like SDWebImage!
