let keychain = JNKeychain()

if let password = try? keychain.getValue(forKey: "password") {
    // Use the retrieved data (e.g., password)
} else {
    // Data retrieval failed or data not found
}

Step 4: Remove Data from Keychain

If you want to remove a specific keychain item, use the following code:

let keychain = JNKeychain()

do {
    try keychain.removeValue(forKey: "password")
    // Data removed successfully
} catch {
    // Error handling
}

Examples

Example 1: Storing User Credentials

Code example for securely storing user credentials:

let keychain = JNKeychain()

do {
    try keychain.setValue("myUsername", forKey: "username")
    try keychain.setValue("myPassword", forKey: "password")
    // Credentials stored successfully
} catch {
    // Error handling
}

Example 2: Managing User Settings

Code example for storing and retrieving user settings:

let keychain = JNKeychain()

// Storing settings
do {
    try keychain.setValue("Dark", forKey: "theme")
    try keychain.setValue("16", forKey: "fontSize")
    // Settings stored successfully
} catch {
    // Error handling
}

// Retrieving settings
if let theme = try? keychain.getValue(forKey: "theme"),
   let fontSize = try? keychain.getValue(forKey: "fontSize") {
    // Use the retrieved settings
} else {
    // Settings retrieval failed or data not found
}
