How to add a delete button to Cells on Swift - ios

Question

I'm trying to create an App but I'm struggling with a simple problem: How can I add a delete button to my custom cells?
I've created a NewCocoaTouchClass
I've created my custom design (added also a button for every cell) and provided the Outlets in the TableViewCellController
I managed to implement my custom cell to another viewController
I created a button on my viewController
I'd like that when the user taps on my new button, cell buttons will appear, and then I can delete cells singularly. When I create the IbAction I can't retrieve the cell code because the cell is defined only in my tableViewCode.
Thank in advance
Ps: I also implemented deleting cells by swipe but my custom cell design is incompatible with the standard rectangular delete option (this is awful).
TableViewCellController
import UIKit
class CustomTableTableViewCell: UITableViewCell {
static let identificatore = "CustomTableTableViewCell"
static func nib() -> UINib {
return UINib(nibName: "CustomTableTableViewCell", bundle: nil)
}
#IBOutlet weak var ImmagineCella: UIImageView!
#IBOutlet weak var TestoCella: UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var Button: UIButton!
override func awakeFromNib() {
super.awakeFromNib()
// Initialization code
}
override func setSelected(_ selected: Bool, animated: Bool) {
super.setSelected(selected, animated: animated)
// Configure the view for the selected state
}
}
ViewController
import UIKit
class MaterieViewController: UIViewController, UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource {
var materie : [String] = ["zoifvdhfdv", "szvzv", "zdvzfv", "zfdvbfdb", "bfzdfb"]
#IBOutlet weak var TableViewMaterie: UITableView!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
TableViewMaterie.register(CustomTableTableViewCell.nib(), forCellReuseIdentifier: CustomTableTableViewCell.identificatore)
TableViewMaterie.delegate = self
TableViewMaterie.dataSource = self
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return materie.count
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: CustomTableTableViewCell.identificatore, for: indexPath) as! CustomTableTableViewCell
cell.TestoCella.text = materie[indexPath.row]
return cell
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, heightForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGFloat {
return 67.83
}
#IBAction func EditButton(_ sender: UIButton) {
}
}

Answer 1

This is the code I use in my project
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, titleForDeleteConfirmationButtonForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> String?
{
return "Delete"
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, canEditRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> Bool {
return true
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, commit editingStyle: UITableViewCell.EditingStyle, forRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
if (editingStyle == .delete) {
//Add your code
}
}

You can write with add target
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: CustomTableTableViewCell.identificatore, for: indexPath) as! CustomTableTableViewCell
cell.TestoCella.text = materie[indexPath.row]
cell. Button.tag = indexPath.row
cell. Button.addTarget(self, action: #selector(buttonClicked(sender:)), for: .touchUpInside)
return cell
}
func buttonClicked(sender: UIButton) {
let buttonRow = sender.tag
print(buttonRow)
}
