Download video from URL and share it on Facebook, Messages, Twitter using UIActivityViewController

I am using Alamofire for networking and working with Swift 4.

I need to download a video from URL and store it in a particular location and then share it using UIActivityViewController on Facebook, Messages, Twitter etc.

Can someone provide some sample code or guide me on this?

Regards!!

try to download video using Alamofire

func downloadVideo() {
    let destination = DownloadRequest.suggestedDownloadDestination()
    let url = "https://lynda_files2-a.akamaihd.net/secure/courses/391599/VBR_MP4h264_main_SD/391599_00_01_WX30_welcome.mp4?c3.ri=3770828196132302975&hashval=1522966719_0c357049da0562665ab3f99ccd3e8bca"

    Alamofire.download(url, to: destination).downloadProgress(queue: DispatchQueue.global(qos: .utility)) { (progress) in
        print("Progress: \(progress.fractionCompleted)")
    } .validate().responseData { [weak self] (response)  in
        self?.shareVideo(from: response.destinationURL!)
    }
}

and share using UIActivityViewController

func shareVideo(from url: URL) {
    let activityViewController = UIActivityViewController(activityItems: [url], applicationActivities: nil)
    present(activityViewController, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
