Post id from url

[MariaJsn]

Hi Sbertix :)

Is there any way to get post/media id from url?

I want to get the media details/infos from url with Endpoint.Media.summary(for:) endpoint.
Or is there any different endpoint to get media details/infos from url?

Thanks

Hey @MariaJsn,

Unfortunately there's no way to achieve this in Swiftagram.
I might try and work on this for 5.0.0, which is still a long way away though.

Quick update: I've added the method in Swiftagram last development commit.
As 5.0.0 is not even close to being ready for release at this time, though, I suggest adding the code below to your project, if you require the functionality. @MariaJsn

func identifier(from url: URL) -> String? {
   // Prepare the `URL`.
   let components = url.pathComponents
   guard let postIndex = components.firstIndex(of: "p"),
      postIndex < components.count-1 else {
         return nil
   }
   let shortcode = components[postIndex+1]
   // Process the shortcode.
   let alphabet = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789-_"
   let set = CharacterSet(charactersIn: alphabet)
   guard shortcode.rangeOfCharacter(from: set.inverted) == nil else {
      return nil
   }
   var identifier: Int64 = 0
   shortcode.forEach { identifier = identifier*64+Int64(alphabet.firstIndex(of: $0)!.utf16Offset(in: alphabet)) }
   return String(identifier)
}
