How do I set the height of tableHeaderView (UITableView) with autolayout?

Question

I\'m been smashing my head against the wall with this for last 3 or 4 hours and I can\'t seem to figure it out. I have a UIViewController with a full screen UITableView insi

It works for both header view and footer just replace the header with footer

func sizeHeaderToFit() {
    if let headerView = tableView.tableHeaderView {

        headerView.setNeedsLayout()
        headerView.layoutIfNeeded()

        let height = headerView.systemLayoutSizeFitting(UILayoutFittingCompressedSize).height
        var frame = headerView.frame
        frame.size.height = height
        headerView.frame = frame

        tableView.tableHeaderView = headerView
    }
}
