PHPhotoLibrary save a gif data

Question

I can\'t find a similar method to ALAssetsLibrary->writeImageDataToSavedPhotosAlbum in the new PHPhotoLibrary since ALAssetsLibrary deprecated in iOS 9 I can\'t save GIF pro

Answer 1

I used NSData to save the gif image, ALAssetsLibrary method UIImageWriteToSavedPhotosAlbum deprecated after iOS8,The api says we can use PHAssetCreationRequestmethod [[PHAssetCreationRequest creationRequestForAsset] addResourceWithType:PHAssetResourceTypePhoto data:data options:options]; to save this gif image data, so you can use url request to save gifs as well

codes are follows:

NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"1" ofType:@"gif"];
NSData *data = [NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:path];
[[PHPhotoLibrary sharedPhotoLibrary] performChanges:^{
    PHAssetResourceCreationOptions *options = [[PHAssetResourceCreationOptions alloc] init];
    [[PHAssetCreationRequest creationRequestForAsset] addResourceWithType:PHAssetResourceTypePhoto data:data options:options];
} completionHandler:^(BOOL success, NSError * _Nullable error) {
    NSLog(@"：%d",success);
}];

Answer 2

I solved my issue by creating temp file and using :

creationRequestForAssetFromImageAtFileURL

Answer 3

I've save gif file successfully to Photos Gallery by using Photos Framework

PHPhotoLibrary.shared().performChanges ({
    let url = URL(fileURLWithPath: "your file path")
    PHAssetChangeRequest.creationRequestForAssetFromImage(atFileURL: url)
  }) { saved, error in
    if saved {
      print("Your image was successfully saved")
    }
  }

Hope this help!
