(Swift SpriteKit) Rotate sprite in the direction of touch

Question

On the screenshot provided, the red arrow and cross are just for demonstration purposes and are not in the game. I would like the sprite of the spaceship to face the direction of the ball it shoots.

Here is my current code for touch location

override func touchesBegan(touches: Set<UITouch>, withEvent event: UIEvent?) {
   /* Called when a touch begins */

    for touch in touches {
        let location = touch.locationInNode(self)

        var bullet = SKSpriteNode(imageNamed: "bullet")
        bullet.position = cannon.position
        bullet.size = CGSize(width: 35, height: 35)

        //physics
        bullet.physicsBody = SKPhysicsBody(circleOfRadius: bullet.size.width/2)
        bullet.physicsBody?.categoryBitMask = PhysicsCategory.bullet
        bullet.physicsBody?.collisionBitMask = PhysicsCategory.enemy
        bullet.physicsBody?.contactTestBitMask = PhysicsCategory.enemy
        bullet.name = "bullet"
        bullet.physicsBody?.affectedByGravity = false

        self.addChild(bullet)

        var dx = CGFloat(location.x - cannon.position.x)
        var dy = CGFloat(location.y - cannon.position.y)

        let magnitude = sqrt(dx * dx + dy * dy)

        dx /= magnitude
        dy /= magnitude

        let vector = CGVector(dx: 120.0 * dx, dy: 120.0 * dy) //adjust constant to increase impluse.

        bullet.physicsBody?.applyImpulse(vector)

        // I found this code bellow this comment, but it just moves the cannon's y position

        let direction = SKAction.moveTo(
            CGPointMake(
                400 * -cos(bullet.zRotation - CGFloat(M_PI_2)) + bullet.position.x,
                400 * -sin(bullet.zRotation - CGFloat(M_PI_2)) + bullet.position.y
            ),
            duration: 0.8)

        cannon.runAction(direction)
    }
}

Here is the code I found which works perfectly.

Rotate a sprite to sprite position not exact in SpriteKit with Swift

 let angle = atan2(location.y - cannon.position.y , location.x - cannon.position.x)
 cannon.zRotation = angle - CGFloat(M_PI_2)
