Scroll UITextField above Keyboard in a UITableViewCell on a regular UIViewController

Question

I have tried most of the examples here on StackOverflow. I also used Apple\'s. The problem I seem to have with them is that they don\'t account for the UITextField being in

My solution (worked on Xcode 8.3.3, Swift 3, iOS 10.3.1):

class MyTableViewController: UITableViewController {

    override func viewWillAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
        NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(actionKeyboardDidShow(with:)), name: .UIKeyboardDidShow, object: nil)
        NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(actionKeyboardWillHide(with:)), name: .UIKeyboardWillHide, object: nil)
    }

    override func viewDidDisappear(_ animated: Bool) {
        NotificationCenter.default.removeObserver(self, name: .UIKeyboardDidShow, object: nil)
        NotificationCenter.default.removeObserver(self, name: .UIKeyboardWillHide, object: nil)
    }

    @objc private func actionKeyboardDidShow(with notification: Notification) {
        guard let userInfo = notification.userInfo as? [String: AnyObject],
            let keyboardFrame = (userInfo[UIKeyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey] as? NSValue)?.cgRectValue
            else { return }

        var contentInset = self.tableView.contentInset
        contentInset.bottom += keyboardFrame.height

        self.tableView.contentInset = contentInset
        self.tableView.scrollIndicatorInsets = contentInset
    }

    @objc private func actionKeyboardWillHide(with notification: Notification) {
        guard let userInfo = notification.userInfo as? [String: AnyObject],
            let keyboardFrame = (userInfo[UIKeyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey] as? NSValue)?.cgRectValue
            else { return }

        var contentInset = self.tableView.contentInset
        contentInset.bottom -= keyboardFrame.height

        self.tableView.contentInset = contentInset
        self.tableView.scrollIndicatorInsets = contentInset
    }

}
