Get button click inside UITableViewCell
(18 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
I have a UITableView list with a button which says "Click Me!". I tried following this answer below: https://stackoverflow.com/a/53043358/7746248 to tie the button to an action, but that didn't work for unknown reasons.
I have checked other ways to tie a button to an event, I have had no luck.
import UIKit
class SampleTableViewCell: UITableViewCell {
#IBOutlet weak var name: UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var button: UIButton!
var tapCallback: (() -> Void)?
#IBAction func didTap(_ sender: Any) {
tapCallback?()
}
}
class TableViewController: UITableViewController {
var tableArray = ["New York", "Chicago", "North Island"]
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Uncomment the following line to preserve selection between presentations
self.clearsSelectionOnViewWillAppear = false
self.tableView.dataSource = self
self.tableView.delegate = self
self.tableView.reloadData()
}
// MARK: - Table view data source
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
// #warning Incomplete implementation, return the number of rows
return self.tableArray.count
}
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "SampleCell", for: indexPath) as! SampleTableViewCell
// Configure the cell...
cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCell.SelectionStyle.none
let names = self.tableArray[indexPath.row]
cell.name.text = names
cell.tapCallback = {
// do stuff
DispatchQueue.main.async {
let alert = UIAlertController(title: "title", message: "Button Clicked!", preferredStyle: .alert)
alert.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Close", style: .cancel, handler: nil))
self.present(alert, animated: true)
}
}
return cell
}
}
Any other simple way to do this?

Add target inside cellForRowAt like below
override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "SampleCell", for: indexPath) as! SampleTableViewCell
// Configure the cell...
cell.selectionStyle = UITableViewCell.SelectionStyle.none
let names = self.tableArray[indexPath.row]
cell.name.text = names
cell. button.addTarget(self, action: #selector(alertMethod), for: .touchUpInside)
return cell
}
#objc fileprivate func alertMethod() {
let alert = UIAlertController(title: "title", message: "Button Clicked!", preferredStyle: .alert)
alert.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Close", style: .cancel, handler: nil))
self.present(alert, animated: true)
}
}
