if let metadata = response {
if let file = metadata as? Files.FileMetadata {
print("This is a file with path: \(file.pathLower)")
if file.name.hasSuffix(".txt") || file.name.hasSuffix(".md") || file.name.hasSuffix(".html") {
self.files.append(entry)
print("File \(file.name) Added to the Array")
} else {
print("Unsupported File Format")
}
} else if let folder = metadata as? Files.FolderMetadata {
print("This is a folder with path: \(folder.pathLower)")
self.files.append(entry)
}
} else {
print(error!)
}
}
}
I got a new question, but I’ll create a new post for it.
Thanks for the help! :)
