CollectionView delegate methods are not calling from TableViewCell - ios

Question

Delegate isn't being called from tableViewCell. Here is UICollectionViewDelegate and UICollectionViewDataSource code
extension HomeVC:UICollectionViewDataSource,UICollectionViewDelegate,UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout{
func numberOfSections(in collectionView: UICollectionView) -> Int {
return 1
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, numberOfItemsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return 4
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: "ProductCell", for: indexPath)
return cell
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, didSelectItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
print("ok")
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize {
let lay = collectionViewLayout as! UICollectionViewFlowLayout
lay.sectionInset = UIEdgeInsets(top: 0, left: 5, bottom: 0, right: 5)
lay.minimumInteritemSpacing = 0
lay.minimumLineSpacing = 0
collectionView.collectionViewLayout = lay
let size = (collectionView.frame.size.width-10) / 2
return CGSize(width: size, height: size)
}
}

//MARK:- Tableview Datasource method
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier:"RecentLoanApplicationCell") as! RecentLoanApplicationCell
cell.collectionVC.delegate = self
cell.collectionVC.dataSource = self
cell.btnViewAll.addTarget(self, action: #selector(btnViewALLTap(button:)), for: .touchUpInside)
DispatchQueue.main.async {
cell.collectionVC.reloadData()
}
return cell
}
//MARK:- Tableview Cell in side custom cell Register for collectionView cell
class RecentLoanApplicationCell: UITableViewCell {
#IBOutlet var collectionVC:UICollectionView!
override func awakeFromNib() {
super.awakeFromNib()
self.collectionVC.register(UINib.init(nibName:"RecentLoanCollectionViewCell", bundle: nil), forCellWithReuseIdentifier:"RecentLoanCollectionViewCell")
}
override func setSelected(_ selected: Bool, animated: Bool) {
super.setSelected(selected, animated: animated)
}
}
// Same ControllerView call
//MARK:- Collection DataSource & Delegate
extension HomeViewController : UICollectionViewDelegate,UICollectionViewDataSource {
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, numberOfItemsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return 5
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier:"RecentLoanCollectionViewCell", for: indexPath) as! RecentLoanCollectionViewCell
return cell
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, didSelectItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
debugPrint("didSelectItemAt ==>\(indexPath.row)")
}

Here is the code how I done for same inside TableViewCell using collectionView and performed selection :
Code inside TableView datasource method :
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "BasicCarColorCell", for: indexPath) as! BasicCarColorCell
cell.dataSource = preloads.colors
cell.collectionViewSetup()
cell.delegate = self
return cell
}
Code for TableViewCell:
protocol BasicCarColorCellDelegate {
func colorCell(cell:BasicCarColorCell, didSelect color: Color)
}
class BasicCarColorCell: UITableViewCell {
var dataSource = Array<Color>()
var selectedColor = Color()
#IBOutlet weak var textView: RSKPlaceholderTextView!
#IBOutlet weak var guideLineMessage:UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var collectionView: UICollectionView!
var delegate: BasicCarColorCellDelegate?
override func awakeFromNib() {
super.awakeFromNib()
// Initialization code
}
func collectionViewSetup() {
let nib = UINib(nibName: "BasicCarColorCollectionCell", bundle: nil)
self.collectionView.register(nib, forCellWithReuseIdentifier: "BasicCarColorCollectionCell")
let flowLayout = UICollectionViewFlowLayout()
flowLayout.minimumLineSpacing = 0
flowLayout.minimumInteritemSpacing = 0
flowLayout.scrollDirection = .horizontal
collectionView.collectionViewLayout = flowLayout
collectionView.dataSource = self
collectionView.delegate = self
}
override func setSelected(_ selected: Bool, animated: Bool) {
super.setSelected(selected, animated: animated)
// Configure the view for the selected state
}
}
extension BasicCarColorCell: UICollectionViewDataSource, UICollectionViewDelegate, UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout {
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, numberOfItemsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return self.dataSource.count
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: "BasicCarColorCollectionCell", for: indexPath) as! BasicCarColorCollectionCell
return cell
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize {
let height = collectionView.bounds.size.height-2
let width = height-20
return CGSize(width: width, height:height)
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, insetForSectionAt section: Int) -> UIEdgeInsets {
return UIEdgeInsets(top: 1, left: 10, bottom: 1, right: 10)
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, didSelectItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
let color = self.dataSource[indexPath.item]
self.selectedColor = color
delegate?.colorCell(cell: self, didSelect: self.selectedColor)
collectionView.reloadData()
}
}
And to handle the selection of collectionView just implement the method of custom protocol written in TableViewCell in ViewController:
func colorCell(cell: BasicCarColorCell, didSelect color: Color) {
//self.selectedCarColor = color.value
}
You can do it in same pattern as per your need.
Hope it'll help!

You need to set datasource and delegate for collectionView, every time in Tableview delegate CellForRowAtIndexPath.
