A small Swift networking layer on top of Alamofire. It standardizes how endpoints are described, how requests are built (JSON + multipart), how responses are logged, and how errors are mapped into consistent messages. Designed to reduce repeated “glue code” across apps while keeping customization points explicit.
Key highlights:
• Single EndPoint contract for URL, params, headers, and content type
• Router that supports JSON requests and multipart uploads
• Pluggable logging and error handling without app-level coupling

• Networking code tends to sprawl: endpoints, headers, encoding, decoding, logging, and errors end up duplicated per feature.
• Multipart uploads are easy to implement inconsistently (file metadata, mixed parameter types, boundary handling).
• Error surfaces are often noisy or vague, making debugging and UX messaging inconsistent.

I built a lightweight library that enforces an explicit endpoint definition (EndPoint) and a single request executor (Router). The router chooses request behavior based on content type, logs requests/responses via a NetworkLogger, and delegates status-code evaluation to an ErrorHandler. Successful responses decode into a generic Codable model with a standard JSONDecoder, while failure paths return human-readable error messages.
• Includes a multipart builder that supports files, data, URLs, and strings in one place

• EndPoint protocol defines baseURL, path, method, headers, params, and content type
• EndPoint extensions build merged headers, full URL with query items, and multipart form-data append logic
• Router<EP> orchestrates requests using Alamofire (AF.request / AF.upload)
• NetworkLogger protocol + DefaultNetworkLogger for cURL-style request logs and response summaries
• ErrorHandler protocol + DefaultErrorHandler to map status codes into consistent results/messages
• Generic response decoding into Codable models with consistent error messages for missing/invalid payloads

• Unified JSON and multipart flows under one API without leaking Alamofire details into feature code
• Built a multipart encoder that accepts mixed payload types (file, data, URL, string) safely and predictably
• Made logging swappable so apps can move from print-based debugging to structured logging later
• Centralized HTTP status handling to prevent “per-call” error mapping drift across the codebase
• Kept the surface area small while still allowing overrides (custom error messages, custom error mapping)
• Identified and isolated a method-mapping edge case (HTTP method mapping bug) to prevent silent request failures

• Reduced networking boilerplate across projects by standardizing endpoint + router patterns
• Improved debugging speed with consistent request/response logs and stable error messaging
• Made multipart uploads safer to implement and easier to review
