GET http request with header parameters

Hi everyone, In order to retrieve the rhymes of a given word, I have to make the following GET request:

GET "https://wordsapiv1.p.mashape.com/words/word/rhymes" -H "X-Mashape-Key: myKey" -H "Accept: application/json"

I can't figure out how to make this GET request in swift. I've also tried to make "swiftHTTP" to work, as explained here:

https://github.com/daltoniam/SwiftHTTP

but I am not able to link the external framework.

Anyone could help me making that GET request?

Take a look at the NSMutableURLRequest's header setting methods in the docs
