I am having difficulties to make an UIPickerView with a done button to appear when the users taps a UITextField. This is my code so far. Everything builds fine, but when I t
UIPickerView with a Done button? Swift4
Step 1 : Adding one textFiled named txt_pickUpData in ViewController and give IBOutlet connection and delegate. also take one UIDatePicker variable. and take an Array with string value which is display on picker wheel.
@IBOutlet weak var txt_pickUpData: UITextField!
var myPickerView : UIPickerView!
var pickerData = ["Hitesh Modi" , "Kirit Modi" , "Ganesh Modi" , "Paresh Modi"]
Step 2 : Also adding the delegate of UIPickerView and UITextFiled.
class ViewController: UIViewController , UIPickerViewDelegate, UIPickerViewDataSource, UITextFieldDelegate{
Step 3 : The function pickUp to create UIPickerView with ToolBar.
func pickUp(_ textField : UITextField){
// UIPickerView
self.myPickerView = UIPickerView(frame:CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: self.view.frame.size.width, height: 216))
self.myPickerView.delegate = self
self.myPickerView.dataSource = self
self.myPickerView.backgroundColor = UIColor.white
textField.inputView = self.myPickerView
// ToolBar
let toolBar = UIToolbar()
toolBar.barStyle = .default
toolBar.isTranslucent = true
toolBar.tintColor = UIColor(red: 92/255, green: 216/255, blue: 255/255, alpha: 1)
toolBar.sizeToFit()
// Adding Button ToolBar
let doneButton = UIBarButtonItem(title: "Done", style: .plain, target: self, action: #selector(ViewController.doneClick))
let spaceButton = UIBarButtonItem(barButtonSystemItem: .flexibleSpace, target: nil, action: nil)
let cancelButton = UIBarButtonItem(title: "Cancel", style: .plain, target: self, action: #selector(ViewController.cancelClick))
toolBar.setItems([cancelButton, spaceButton, doneButton], animated: false)
toolBar.isUserInteractionEnabled = true
textField.inputAccessoryView = toolBar
}
Step 4 : Adding the delegate and datasource methods of UIPickerView to display data on UIPickerView wheel.
//MARK:- PickerView Delegate & DataSource
func numberOfComponents(in pickerView: UIPickerView) -> Int {
return 1
}
func pickerView(_ pickerView: UIPickerView, numberOfRowsInComponent component: Int) -> Int {
return pickerData.count
}
func pickerView(_ pickerView: UIPickerView, titleForRow row: Int, forComponent component: Int) -> String? {
return pickerData[row]
}
func pickerView(_ pickerView: UIPickerView, didSelectRow row: Int, inComponent component: Int) {
self.txt_pickUpData.text = pickerData[row]
}
//MARK:- TextFiled Delegate
func textFieldDidBeginEditing(_ textField: UITextField) {
self.pickUp(txt_pickUpData)
}
Step 5 : Adding two buttons method which which is in ToolBar. One is doneClick and other is cancelClick. Which is dismiss the UIPickerView.
func doneClick() {
txt_pickUpData.resignFirstResponder()
}
func cancelClick() {
txt_pickUpData.resignFirstResponder()
}
Step 6 : Calling the pickUp function in UITextField delegate method.
func textFieldDidBeginEditing(_ textField: UITextField) {
self.pickUp(txt_pickUpData)
}
Just copy and paste in Your code.
