so I'm looking at using this GitHub api to that checks for the reachability of a host.: https://github.com/ashleymills/Reachability.swift/tree/feature/ios10
however its pretty bare bones and I'm getting a few errors when trying to write a function that will use this code. I'm calling it from viewdidload
setupReachability(hostName: nil)
var reachability:Reachability?
var connected = false
func setupReachability (hostName:String?) {
do {
let reachability = try hostName == nil ? Reachability() : Reachability(hostname: hostName!)
self.reachability = reachability
try! self.reachability?.startNotifier()
} catch ReachabilityError.FailedToCreateWithAddress(let address) {
print(address)
return
} catch {}
//now that the reacability function is created set a notification
NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: "reachabilityChanged", name: ReachabilityChangedNotification, object: reachability)
}
func reachabilityChanged(notification: Notification) {
let reachability = notification.object as! Reachability
if reachability.isReachable {
if reachability.isReachableViaWiFi {
connected = true
print("Connected via WiFi")
} else {
connected = true
print("Connected via Cellular")
}
} else {
connected = false
print("Not Connected")
}
}
this is my error log:

EDIT
You forgot a colon on the
reachabilityChanged:
selector. You need it to indicate that an argument is to be passed:NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: "reachabilityChanged:", name: ReachabilityChangedNotification, object: reachability)
