AFHTTPSessionManager是在AFURLSessionManager基础上，对Http进行GET、HEAD、POST等方法的封装，使得Http使用起来更简单。

初始化

- (instancetype)initWithBaseURL:(NSURL *)url
           sessionConfiguration:(NSURLSessionConfiguration *)configuration
{
    self = [super initWithSessionConfiguration:configuration];
    if (!self) {
        return nil;
    }

    // Ensure terminal slash for baseURL path, so that NSURL +URLWithString:relativeToURL: works as expected
    if ([[url path] length] > 0 && ![[url absoluteString] hasSuffix:@"/"]) {
        url = [url URLByAppendingPathComponent:@""];
    }

    self.baseURL = url;

    self.requestSerializer = [AFHTTPRequestSerializer serializer];
    self.responseSerializer = [AFJSONResponseSerializer serializer];

    return self;
}

• 初始化requestSerializer为AFHTTPRequestSerializer
• 初始化responseSerializer为AFJSONResponseSerializer

GET方法

- (NSURLSessionDataTask *)GET:(NSString *)URLString
                   parameters:(id)parameters
                      headers:(nullable NSDictionary <NSString *, NSString *> *)headers
                     progress:(void (^)(NSProgress * _Nonnull))downloadProgress
                      success:(void (^)(NSURLSessionDataTask * _Nonnull, id _Nullable))success
                      failure:(void (^)(NSURLSessionDataTask * _Nullable, NSError * _Nonnull))failure
{
    
    NSURLSessionDataTask *dataTask = [self dataTaskWithHTTPMethod:@"GET"
                                                        URLString:URLString
                                                       parameters:parameters
                                                          headers:headers
                                                   uploadProgress:nil
                                                 downloadProgress:downloadProgress
                                                          success:success
                                                          failure:failure];
    
    [dataTask resume];
    
    return dataTask;
}

• 设置HTTPMethod为GET

HEAD方法

- (NSURLSessionDataTask *)HEAD:(NSString *)URLString
                    parameters:(id)parameters
                       headers:(NSDictionary<NSString *,NSString *> *)headers
                       success:(void (^)(NSURLSessionDataTask * _Nonnull))success
                       failure:(void (^)(NSURLSessionDataTask * _Nullable, NSError * _Nonnull))failure
{
    NSURLSessionDataTask *dataTask = [self dataTaskWithHTTPMethod:@"HEAD" URLString:URLString parameters:parameters headers:headers uploadProgress:nil downloadProgress:nil success:^(NSURLSessionDataTask *task, __unused id responseObject) {
        if (success) {
            success(task);
        }
    } failure:failure];
    
    [dataTask resume];
    
    return dataTask;
}

• 设置HTTPMethod为HEAD

POST方法

- (nullable NSURLSessionDataTask *)POST:(NSString *)URLString
                             parameters:(nullable id)parameters
                                headers:(nullable NSDictionary <NSString *, NSString *> *)headers
                               progress:(nullable void (^)(NSProgress *uploadProgress))uploadProgress
                                success:(nullable void (^)(NSURLSessionDataTask *task, id _Nullable responseObject))success
                                failure:(nullable void (^)(NSURLSessionDataTask * _Nullable task, NSError *error))failure
{
    NSURLSessionDataTask *dataTask = [self dataTaskWithHTTPMethod:@"POST" URLString:URLString parameters:parameters headers:headers uploadProgress:uploadProgress downloadProgress:nil success:success failure:failure];
    
    [dataTask resume];
    
    return dataTask;
}

• 设置HTTPMethod为POST

生成task

- (NSURLSessionDataTask *)dataTaskWithHTTPMethod:(NSString *)method
                                       URLString:(NSString *)URLString
                                      parameters:(id)parameters
                                         headers:(NSDictionary <NSString *, NSString *> *)headers
                                  uploadProgress:(nullable void (^)(NSProgress *uploadProgress)) uploadProgress
                                downloadProgress:(nullable void (^)(NSProgress *downloadProgress)) downloadProgress
                                         success:(void (^)(NSURLSessionDataTask *, id))success
                                         failure:(void (^)(NSURLSessionDataTask *, NSError *))failure
{
    NSError *serializationError = nil;
    NSMutableURLRequest *request = [self.requestSerializer requestWithMethod:method URLString:[[NSURL URLWithString:URLString relativeToURL:self.baseURL] absoluteString] parameters:parameters error:&serializationError];
    for (NSString *headerField in headers.keyEnumerator) {
        [request addValue:headers[headerField] forHTTPHeaderField:headerField];
    }
    if (serializationError) {
        if (failure) {
            dispatch_async(self.completionQueue ?: dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
                failure(nil, serializationError);
            });
        }

        return nil;
    }

    __block NSURLSessionDataTask *dataTask = nil;
    dataTask = [self dataTaskWithRequest:request
                          uploadProgress:uploadProgress
                        downloadProgress:downloadProgress
                       completionHandler:^(NSURLResponse * __unused response, id responseObject, NSError *error) {
        if (error) {
            if (failure) {
                failure(dataTask, error);
            }
        } else {
            if (success) {
                success(dataTask, responseObject);
            }
        }
    }];

    return dataTask;
}

• method为对应的GET、POST、HEAD等方法
• 通过requestSerializer生成一个request，并且设置Http头
• 生成NSURLSessionDataTask
