Assign row value of uipickerView to dynamically created uitextfields - ios

I have a booking app, where user can book a serviceName and servantName, i have to create dynamic (incremental) UITextFields for those two types, those TextFields get filled from Two UIPickerViews (PickerViews works fine).
How can i assign text to TextFields, which is dynamically created from those pickerViews.
I created TextFieldss using Autolayout in scrollView as below function
func addBookingRow(firstTime: Bool) {
let containerView = UIView()
containerView.backgroundColor = .white
containerView.layer.cornerRadius = 5
containerView.layer.borderColor = .white
containerView.layer.borderWidth = 2
containerView.tag = count
contentView.addSubview(containerView)
containerView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
if firstTime {
containerView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: contentView.topAnchor, constant: 10).isActive = true
} else {
containerView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bookedServices[count - 1].bottomAnchor, constant: 10).isActive = true
}
containerView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: contentView.leadingAnchor, constant: 16).isActive = true
containerView.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: contentView.trailingAnchor, constant: -16).isActive = true
let serviceNameTF = CustomTextField()
serviceNameTF.backgroundColor = .white
serviceNameTF.placeholder = "Choose Service"
serviceNameTF.font = UIFont(name: "RB", size: 17)
serviceNameTF.textAlignment = .right
serviceNameTF.tag = count
containerView.addSubview(serviceNameTF)
setupPickerViews(textField: serviceNameTF, picker: serviceNamePicker)
serviceNameTF.addTarget(self, action: #selector(self.serviceNameIsTapped), for: .touchDown)
serviceNameTF.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
serviceNameTF.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: containerView.topAnchor, constant: 5).isActive = true
serviceNameTF.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: containerView.leadingAnchor, constant: 5).isActive = true
serviceNameTF.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: containerView.trailingAnchor, constant: -5).isActive = true
serviceNameTF.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 40).isActive = true
let workerTF = CustomTextField()
workerTF.backgroundColor = .white
workerTF.placeholder = "Choose Servant"
workerTF.font = UIFont(name: "RB", size: 17)
workerTF.textAlignment = .right
workerTF.tag = count
containerView.addSubview(workerTF)
setupPickerViews(textField: workerTF, picker: workerPicker)
workerTF.addTarget(self, action: #selector(self.workerTFIsTapped), for: .touchDown)
workerTF.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
workerTF.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: serviceNameTF.bottomAnchor, constant: 5).isActive = true
workerTF.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: containerView.leadingAnchor, constant: 5).isActive = true
workerTF.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: containerView.trailingAnchor, constant: -5).isActive = true
workerTF.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 40).isActive = true
let price = UILabel()
price.font = UIFont(name: "RB", size: 17)
price.textColor = .white
containerView.addSubview(price)
price.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
price.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: workerTF.bottomAnchor, constant: 5).isActive = true
price.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: containerView.leadingAnchor, constant: 5).isActive = true
price.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: containerView.trailingAnchor, constant: -5).isActive = true
price.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 40).isActive = true
containerView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: price.bottomAnchor, constant: 5).isActive = true
contentView.bottomAnchor.constraint(greaterThanOrEqualTo: containerView.bottomAnchor, constant: 250).isActive = true
bookedServices.append(containerView)
count += 1
}

Swift - Duplicate UIView

I'm currently trying to achieve a Shimmer effect in Swift. To do that I create a gray UIView, and another on top of it with an effect.
The problem is that I'm writing the same code twice...
let profileShimmerView = UIView()
profileShimmerView.backgroundColor = whiteClear
profileShimmerView.layer.cornerRadius = 20
profileShimmerView.clipsToBounds = true
let profileView = UIView()
profileView.backgroundColor = grayClear
profileView.layer.cornerRadius = 20
profileView.clipsToBounds = true
self.addSubview(profileView)
self.addSubview(profileShimmerView)
profileShimmerView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
profileShimmerView.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.leftAnchor, constant: 45).isActive = true
profileShimmerView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.topAnchor, constant: 15).isActive = true
profileShimmerView.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 40).isActive = true
profileShimmerView.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 40).isActive = true
profileView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
profileView.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.leftAnchor, constant: 45).isActive = true
profileView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.topAnchor, constant: 15).isActive = true
profileView.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 40).isActive = true
profileView.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 40).isActive = true
Is there a more simple way to achieve that?
You can create a function
func shared(color : UIColor)->UIView {
let v = UIView()
v.backgroundColor = color
v.layer.cornerRadius = 20
v.clipsToBounds = true
self.addSubview(v)
v.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
NSLayoutConstraint.activate([
v.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.leftAnchor, constant: 45),
v.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.topAnchor, constant: 15),
v.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 40),
v.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 40)
])
return v
}

How to add views to the UIScrolllView programmatically using anchors in Swift 4

I have some problems with UIScrollView. Trying to add scrollable are for some sliders but nothing is working. I think it is because I'm using anchors for layout. Please, explain to me, what I'm doing wrong. Eventually, I need to have a scrollable area for iPhone SE version that user can use sliders.
Here is my code, where I'm creating scrollview and adding all the sliders on it and putting anchors in relation with scrollview.
//MARK: Scroll View
scrollView = UIScrollView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: view.bounds.width, height: 812))

If somebody wonders, this is my view hierarchy, where all the items I need to be on scroll view are in fact on scroll view. I added gray color to scroll view to make it visable.
When you are using autolayout you do not need to specify contentSize, it will infer that from the subviews. The conditions are:
topmostView.topAnchor should be attached to scrollView.topAnchor
bottommostView.bottomAnchor should be attached to scrollView.bottomAnchor
Leading and trailing of scrollView should be attached to any view which has a width.
A few problems i see in your code.
You seem to have attached a label's leading and trailing to a scrollView which is not what you want to do most of the time because the scrollView width will be only as much as that of the label.
You also seem to have attached the scrollView leading and trailing at multiple places which will compute different leading and trailing constraints leading to conflicts. (I'm pretty sure if you check your log it will show some constraint breaking)
You have not attached the top or bottom of the topmost and bottommost views that are inside the scrollView to the scrollView's top and bottom.
Apple recommends that when using UIScrollView, have a dummy view (contentView) which will pinned to the top, leading, trailing, bottom of the scrollView and have a specified width. The height of that view will be calculated dynamically from the views you add to it. The same concept of the top of the topmost view attached to the contentView's top and bottom of the bottommost view attached to the contentView's bottom.
You can check my github repo where there is a minimalistic example which explains a UIScrollView with autolayout.

Memory leak from programmatically set constraints? iOS swift

I have built an app and discovered that there is a memory leak. When I segue from my home page view controller to any other view controller and then back to my homepage, the memory grows by a small amount each time. From everything I can tell, this is due to a problem with my home page view controller. In my ViewController class (the class for my home page) I set constraints programmatically to fit every iOS device. Could this be a cause of my memory leak? how could I clear these constraints once I segue to a new view controller? The code for my ViewController class (homepage) can be seen below.
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var GoButton: UIButton!
#IBOutlet weak var Background: UIImageView!
#IBOutlet weak var SettingsButton: UIButton!
#IBOutlet weak var aboutButton: UIButton!

label.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bannerView.trailingAnchor, constant: -20).isActive = true
label.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bannerView.topAnchor, constant: 10).isActive = true
bannerView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: label.bottomAnchor, constant: 10).isActive = true
Declare your label and view as global variable like
var viewToShowIn = UIView()
let bannerView = UIView()
let label = UILabel()
Then set constraints in viewDidAppear or viewDidLoad
viewToShowIn = self.view!
bannerView.backgroundColor = UIColor.red
label.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
viewToShowIn.addSubview(bannerView)
bannerView.addSubview(label)
let margins = viewToShowIn.layoutMarginsGuide
bannerView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
bannerView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: viewToShowIn.leadingAnchor, constant: 0).isActive = true
bannerView.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: viewToShowIn.trailingAnchor, constant: 0).isActive = true
let bannerTopConstraint = bannerView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: margins.topAnchor, constant: 0)
bannerTopConstraint.isActive = true
label.font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 20)
label.text = "kjafj kfj fk fjk dakjd k fdjakljf dkfjklsdjf dfsjlkj lkfsdjlkjl sjflksdjfljslf sdfljdslkjflsdjf sldfjlksj"
label.numberOfLines = 0
label.lineBreakMode = .byWordWrapping
label.textAlignment = .center
label.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bannerView.leadingAnchor, constant: 20).isActive = true
label.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bannerView.trailingAnchor, constant: -20).isActive = true
label.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bannerView.topAnchor, constant: 10).isActive = true
bannerView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: label.bottomAnchor, constant: 10).isActive = true
You will get height of your view or label in viewWillLayoutSubviews() or viewDidLayoutSubviews() method
override func viewDidLayoutSubviews() {
super.viewDidLayoutSubviews()
// GET YOUR HEIGHT HERE
}
After adding all constraints to view just call self.view.layoutIfNeeded()
It will force auto layout engine to calculate view size.

How do you vertically align the titles of two different buttons with different title sizes?

The follow button next to the user's name seems to be vertically centered whereas I want to align the baselines of both titles.
I'm looking to align this programmatically.
suppose you don't have fixed width and height both of your label and button.
Then your code will look like this.Just to mention i am using LayoutAnchor as it's easy.
func autolayoutTitle() {
let label = UILabel()
label.backgroundColor = UIColor.red
label.textColor = UIColor.white
label.text = "Nafeez Zawahir"
label.textAlignment = .right
view.addSubview(label)
label.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
//label.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 150).isActive = true
// label.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 40).isActive = true
label.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.leftAnchor, constant: 40).isActive = true
label.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.topAnchor, constant: 100).isActive = true
let button = UIButton()
//button.titleLabel?.text = "Follow"
button.setTitle("Follow", for: .normal)
button.setTitleColor(UIColor.white, for: .normal)
button.backgroundColor = UIColor.darkGray
view.addSubview(button)
button.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
// button.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 100).isActive = true
// button.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 50).isActive = true
button.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: label.rightAnchor, constant: 2).isActive = true
button.lastBaselineAnchor.constraint(equalTo: label.lastBaselineAnchor).isActive = true
// button.lastBaselineAnchor.constraint(equalTo: label.lastBaselineAnchor, constant: -10).isActive = true
}
And the output is:
But if you have fixed width and height of your label as well as your button too, then you have to tune your button's baseline anchoring with label's baseline anchor which depends on label's height.
Let's say you have label's height 40 like this.
label.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 40).isActive = true
Then your button's baseline anchoring should be like this.
button.lastBaselineAnchor.constraint(equalTo: label.lastBaselineAnchor, constant: -10).isActive = true
Below is the code:
func autolayoutTitle() {
let label = UILabel()
label.backgroundColor = UIColor.red
label.textColor = UIColor.white
label.text = "Nafeez Zawahir"
label.textAlignment = .right
view.addSubview(label)
label.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
label.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 150).isActive = true
label.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 40).isActive = true
label.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.leftAnchor, constant: 40).isActive = true
label.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.topAnchor, constant: 100).isActive = true
let button = UIButton()
//button.titleLabel?.text = "Follow"
button.setTitle("Follow", for: .normal)
button.setTitleColor(UIColor.white, for: .normal)
button.backgroundColor = UIColor.darkGray
view.addSubview(button)
button.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
button.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 100).isActive = true
button.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 50).isActive = true
button.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: label.rightAnchor, constant: 2).isActive = true
// button.lastBaselineAnchor.constraint(equalTo: label.lastBaselineAnchor).isActive = true
button.lastBaselineAnchor.constraint(equalTo: label.lastBaselineAnchor, constant: -10).isActive = true
}
And this is the output:
