I am new to swift. I used LTBA components to build swift app. I follow some tutorial to develop social application like twitter. I start implement to follow button functions. its call the the another API call but same response come with minor modification(e.g – number of follower property increase by one). call also perfectly working. but collection view did not reload.my code is.

label.textAlignment = .center
label.numberOfLines = 0
label.isHidden = true
return label
}()
override func willTransition(to newCollection: UITraitCollection, with coordinator: UIViewControllerTransitionCoordinator) {
collectionViewLayout.invalidateLayout()
}
func follow(){
print("inside controller")
Service.sharedInstance.fetchfollowHomeFeed { (homeDatasource, err) in
if let err = err {
self.errorMessageLabel.isHidden = false

self.collectionView?.reloadData()

Try to add a
completion handler
for thefollow
method:And call your method like:
Note that you are using a closure in the follow() method so you need to write the code for reloading, in the main queue.
write your reload code in follow like this
