After Readed Barcode is not Opened ViewController Swift 3.0 - ios

I've created one storyboard with name Main1.storyboard and this storyboard have backend file with ViewController.swift name. All projects im created with Swift 3.0 . This storyboard is for reading barcode, i want to make after reading barcode to open homeViewController.xib - homeViewController.swift file and to send this barcode result. HomeViewController class have Webview components. For me is important just to open homeViewController.xib - homeViewController.swift file after reading barcode and send barcode result. My homeViewController.swift and ViewController.swift class is as given bellow:

It's difficult to answer your question without providing the error you gets when you run or what kind of error is listed in the console.
BTW, i guess you may haven't set the identifier for the viewController in each storyboards.

How to implement the 'datepicker' correctly using swift when adding the multiple entries to server?

**Aim: ** To show latest apple calendar type of date picker(inline) in app when user wants to select the date.How it should look
Scenario:**
The user can input multiple entries (maximum 3) the exercise(suryanamaskar). These multiple entries has two functions
1.date-picker and
2.number entry(number of 'suryanamaskar')
When user clicks on the date-picker button. the date picker shows up (.inline). Each entry fetches the post API call that saves the 'suryanamaskar' count entry on server.
What is the issue: I tried to implement the date-picker using and few UI frames : .inline
I replaced the date-picker completely and implemented ".wheels" that works fine.
The datepicker is show up correctly first time. But when the user tried to add other entry or press the date entry buttton . The datepicker gets cut and is not properly visible. This is how it looks when user clicks on datepicker button second time.
What my code looks like:
import UIKit
import SwiftyJSON
import Alamofire
struct surynamaskarStruct {
var date: String
var count: String
}
class AddSuryaNamskarCountVC: UIViewController, UITextFieldDelegate {
var surynamaskarData: [surynamaskarStruct] = [
surynamaskarStruct(date: "Date", count: "0"),
surynamaskarStruct(date: "Date", count: "0"),
surynamaskarStruct(date: "Date", count: "0")

Protocol and delegate pattern not calling the method

Implementing a protocol/delegate pattern as suggested by expert #DonMag, i am unable to get the code working...
I show a ratings window like below and when the user changes the ratings , i want the ratings emoji to update and the controller to pop, i also use animation, now for view i have a separate ratings class and for controller a separate class,
The problem is this function gets tapped , i can detect it but it does not reach the protocol method
#objc func ratingButtonTapped(_ sender: UIButton) {
// print(sender.titleLabel?.text)
guard let t = sender.titleLabel?.text else {
return
}

//Delegates
let vc = RatingsView() //////// this is useless - not shown 1
// set the rating delegate
vc.ratingDelegate = self ////// and set the delegate for this non-shown
So you need to remove let vc = RatingsView() and set the delegate for
rates.ratingDelegate = self

How to edit accessory view of keyboard shown from WKWebView?

I am using a WKWebView in my Swift app to present some textfields.
I set some appearance properties to match a specific design, in this case its background has to be blue.
But when the keyboard is triggered by the WKWebView, it does something with the appearance properties and shows the keyboard toolbar in a pale light appearance of my color, do you know why?
The only appearance manipulation on UIToolBar that somewhat worked is this one:
UIToolbar.appearance().backgroundColor = .blue
This is my problem:
This is my goal:
Found a way, ended up to swizzle UIToolbars. Hopefully everything is there, but you would get an idea. Swift 4:
class YourController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var webView: PWebView!
var toolbar : UIToolbar?
func viewDidLoad() {
webView.addInputAccessoryView(toolbar: self.getToolbar(height: 44))
}
func getToolbar(height: Int) -> UIToolbar? {
let toolBar = UIToolbar()
toolBar.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 50, width: 320, height: height)
toolBar.barStyle = .black
toolBar.tintColor = .white
toolBar.barTintColor = UIColor.blue
let doneButton = UIBarButtonItem(title: "Done", style: .plain, target: self, action: #selector(onToolbarDoneClick(sender:)) )
let flexibleSpaceItem = UIBarButtonItem(barButtonSystemItem: .flexibleSpace, target: self, action: nil )
toolBar.setItems([flexibleSpaceItem, doneButton], animated: false)
toolBar.isUserInteractionEnabled = true
toolBar.sizeToFit()
return toolBar
}
#objc func onToolbarDoneClick(sender: UIBarButtonItem) {
webView?.resignFirstResponder()
}
}
var ToolbarHandle: UInt8 = 0

break

Scroll to bottom causes crash

So I have this snippet of code that is supposed to handle making my content scroll to the bottom upon toggling of the keyboard. However, all it does is crash every time that I try to do it.
Any insight?
Here is my code:
#objc func handleKeyboardNotification(notification: NSNotification){
if let userinfo = notification.userInfo{
let keyboardFrame = (userinfo[UIKeyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey] as! NSValue).cgRectValue
self.bottomConstraint?.constant = -(keyboardFrame.height)
let isKeyboardShowing = notification.name == NSNotification.Name.UIKeyboardWillShow
self.bottomConstraint?.constant = isKeyboardShowing ? -(keyboardFrame.height) : 0
UIView.animate(withDuration: 0, delay: 0, options: UIViewAnimationOptions.curveEaseOut, animations: {
self.view.layoutIfNeeded()
}, completion: { (completion) in
if self.comments.count > 0 && isKeyboardShowing {
let indexPath = IndexPath(item: self.comments.count-1, section: 0)
self.collectionView.scrollToItem(at: indexPath, at: .top, animated: true)
}
})
}
}

Also this is my section controller. Now it is loading the data but as soon as I try to add someething to test if it is working properly using the keyboard it crashes.
import UIKit
import IGListKit
import Foundation
class CommentsSectionController: ListSectionController {
var comment: CommentGrabbed?
override init() {
super.init()
inset = UIEdgeInsets(top: 0, left: 0, bottom: 15, right: 0)
}
// MARK: IGListSectionController Overrides
override func numberOfItems() -> Int {
print(numberOfItems)
return 1
}
override func sizeForItem(at index: Int) -> CGSize {
let frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: collectionContext!.containerSize.width, height: 50)
let dummyCell = CommentCell(frame: frame)
dummyCell.comment = comment
dummyCell.layoutIfNeeded()
let targetSize = CGSize(width: collectionContext!.containerSize.width, height: 55)
let estimatedSize = dummyCell.systemLayoutSizeFitting(targetSize)
let height = max(40 + 8 + 8, estimatedSize.height)
return CGSize(width: collectionContext!.containerSize.width, height: height)
}
override var minimumLineSpacing: CGFloat {
get {
return 0.0
}
set {
self.minimumLineSpacing = 0.0
}
}
override func cellForItem(at index: Int) -> UICollectionViewCell {
guard let cell = collectionContext?.dequeueReusableCell(of: CommentCell.self, for: self, at: index) as? CommentCell else {
fatalError()
}
print(comment)
cell.comment = comment
return cell
}
override func didUpdate(to object: Any) {
comment = object as! CommentGrabbed
}
override func didSelectItem(at index: Int) {
}
}
This specific method is responsbile for returning cells
func listAdapter(_ listAdapter: ListAdapter, sectionControllerFor object: Any) -> ListSectionController {
//the comment section controller will be placed here but we don't have it yet so this will be a placeholder
return CommentsSectionController()
}
Any insight would be very helpful
This is happening because you set the number of items for your collection to be equal to 1, but you are trying to access a cell that has an index equal to IndexPath(section: 0, item: self:comments.count-1), and comments.count-1 is equal to 3 in this case as you can guess from the error log, which is why you get this error.
The solution here would be returning the correct amount of comments (comments.count-1) for your collection view data source.
UPDATE:
In that case, you should not use NSIndexPath. Instead, use IndexPath. Also, after this change you no longer need to cast your index path as IndexPath in your scrollToItem call. The updated version would look like this:
func handleKeyboardNotification(notification: NSNotification) {
// ...
UIView.animate(withDuration: 0, delay: 0, options: UIViewAnimationOptions.curveEaseOut, animations: {
self.view.layoutIfNeeded()
}, completion: { (completion) in
if self.comments.count > 0 && isKeyboardShowing {
let indexPath = IndexPath(item: self.comments.count-1, section: 0)
self.collectionView.scrollToItem(at: indexPath, at: .top, animated: true)
}
})
}
}
