Alamofire Basic Auth

BasicAuth.swift

func doGetWithBasicAuthCredential() -> Void {
  let username = "myUsername"
  let password = "myPassword"
  
  let credential = NSURLCredential(user: username, password: password, persistence: NSURLCredentialPersistence.ForSession)
  
  Alamofire.request(.GET, "https://httpbin.org/basic-auth/\(username)/\(password)")
    .authenticate(usingCredential: credential)
    .responseString { _, _, result in
      if let receivedString = result.value
      {
        print(receivedString)
      }
  }
}

func printMyStarredGistsWithBasicAuth() -> Void {
  let username = "myUsername"
  let password = "myPassword"

  let credentialData = "\(username):\(password)".dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding)!
  let base64Credentials = credentialData.base64EncodedStringWithOptions([])
  
  let headers = ["Authorization": "Basic \(base64Credentials)"]
  
  Alamofire.request(.GET, "https://api.github.com/gists/starred", headers: headers)
    .validate()
    .responseString { _, _, result in
      if let error = result.error {
        print(error)
      }
      if let receivedString = result.value {
        print(receivedString)
      }
  }
}

Thanks. This solved my issue.
