How to limit Google Places Autocomplete to not include Address? - ios

How to limit Google Places Autocomplete to not include Address? I currently have my setup
class FilterVC: UIViewController, GMSAutocompleteViewControllerDelegate {
// MARK: SEARCH BAR
#IBAction func searchBarAction(_ sender: Any) {
let autocompleteController = GMSAutocompleteViewController()
autocompleteController.delegate = self
placeAutocomplete(resultsViewController: autocompleteController)
UINavigationBar.appearance().barTintColor = UIColor.white
UINavigationBar.appearance().tintColor = UIColor.hiGreyishBrownTwo
UITextField.appearance(whenContainedInInstancesOf: [UISearchBar.self]).defaultTextAttributes = [NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor.rawValue: UIColor.hiGreyishBrownTwo]
present(autocompleteController, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
func placeAutocomplete(resultsViewController: GMSAutocompleteViewController) {
var placeClient = GMSPlacesClient()
let filter = GMSAutocompleteFilter()
filter.type = .city
filter.country = "USA"
resultsViewController.autocompleteFilter = filter
func viewController(_ viewController: GMSAutocompleteViewController, didAutocompleteWith place: GMSPlace) {
DataService.instance.place = place
FillAddress(place: place)
fillAddressForm()
print(DataService.instance._address_line1)
print(DataService.instance._city)
print(DataService.instance._postalCode)
print(DataService.instance._state)
print(DataService.instance._country)
DataService.instance.addressLabel = place.formattedAddress
dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
}
func wasCancelled(_ viewController: GMSAutocompleteViewController) {
dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
}
func viewController(_ viewController: GMSAutocompleteViewController, didFailAutocompleteWithError error: Error) {
print("ERROR \(error) Autocomplete")
}
I tried using a GMSAutocompleteFilter to limit my results to only include state city, zip, country. I don't want to display address in the autocomplete controller. When I do this, it only displays Country and city, I can't enter zip code. How would I make that available? I'm not quite sure what I'm missing or what the next step to take is. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

I was going to take this off since I found a solution, but just in case some one runs into a similar issue, a very easy fix is to set filter type to region.
func placeAutocomplete(resultsViewController: GMSAutocompleteViewController) {
var placeClient = GMSPlacesClient()
let filter = GMSAutocompleteFilter()
filter.country = "USA"
filter.type = .region
resultsViewController.autocompleteFilter = filter
This will limit the search to not include address. When trying .city, that eliminated to much. Well hope this helps someone in the future.

issue with alamofire pod on xcode 9

hello everyone I install the alamofire and google places pod to autocomplete the places search
but it gives me the error:
The “Swift Language Version” (SWIFT_VERSION) build setting must be set to a
supported value for targets that use Swift. This setting can be set in the
build settings editor.
my code:
class SetLocationViewController: UIViewController {
private var placesClient = GMSPlacesClient()
#IBOutlet weak var setLocationTf: UITextField!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
placesClient = GMSPlacesClient.shared()
}

acController.delegate = self
let filter = GMSAutocompleteFilter()
filter.type = .establishment

Swift google autocomplete with local search

I am trying to do Google Autocomplete using Google Places in Swift 3.0. But I need to search depending upon my current location. Example, If I am in Kolkata, India and I type search keyword "Ko" it will show the results of Kolkata first .
Can anyone help me.
Here is my code.I import GooglePlaces in my class
#IBAction func txtFieldLocationDidStartEditing(_ sender: Any) {
self.placeAutocomplete()
}
func placeAutocomplete() {
let autocompleteController = GMSAutocompleteViewController()
autocompleteController.delegate = self
present(autocompleteController, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
// MARK: - autoComplete Delegates
func viewController(_ viewController: GMSAutocompleteViewController, didAutocompleteWith place: GMSPlace) {
print("Place name: \(place.name)")
dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
}
func viewController(_ viewController: GMSAutocompleteViewController, didFailAutocompleteWithError error: Error) {
// TODO: handle the error.
print("Error: ", error.localizedDescription)
}
// User canceled the operation.
func wasCancelled(_ viewController: GMSAutocompleteViewController) {
dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
}
// Turn the network activity indicator on and off again.
func didRequestAutocompletePredictions(_ viewController: GMSAutocompleteViewController) {
UIApplication.shared.isNetworkActivityIndicatorVisible = true
}
func didUpdateAutocompletePredictions(_ viewController: GMSAutocompleteViewController) {
UIApplication.shared.isNetworkActivityIndicatorVisible = false
}
Please anyone help me to solve it out.
Thanks in advance.
The only API provided by GMSAutocompleteViewController is to set the GMSCoordinateBounds like so (reference):
func placeAutocomplete() {
let visibleRegion = mapView.projection.visibleRegion()
let bounds = GMSCoordinateBounds(coordinate: visibleRegion.farLeft, coordinate: visibleRegion.nearRight)
let autocompleteController = GMSAutocompleteViewController()
acController.autocompleteBounds = bounds
autocompleteController.delegate = self
present(autocompleteController, animated: true, completion: nil)
}

Google Maps/PlacePicker ios api - is there a way to get nearby places as a GMSplace list?

I'm using place picker to pick a location on a map. After that, I want to get a GMSPlace list of restaurants in a specific radius, centered around the picked location.
Is there any way to implement that using the Google iOS API?
#IBAction func pickPlace(_ sender: UIButton) {
let config = GMSPlacePickerConfig(viewport: nil)
let placePicker = GMSPlacePickerViewController(config: config)
placePicker.delegate = self
present(placePicker, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
func placePicker(_ viewController: GMSPlacePickerViewController, didPick place: GMSPlace){
self.pickedNameLabel.text = place.name
self.pickedAddressLabel.text = place.formattedAddress?.components(separatedBy: ", ").joined(separator: "\n")
viewController.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
}
func placePickerDidCancel(_ viewController: GMSPlacePickerViewController){
viewController.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
}
In didPick delegate fetch the place lat long and pass it to :
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/nearbysearch/json?location=-33.8670,151.1957&radius=500&types=food&name=cruise&key=YOUR_API_KEY

Swift 3 add new contact with phone and email information

I'm trying to prompt the user to create a new contact and pass in information. (specifically a phone and email)
I've found numerous examples of using a CNMutableContact and adding an email to it. However, any of the code involving the CNContact gives me a "Use of undeclared type" error.
How can I setup my class to prompt the user to save the contact?
import ContactsUI
//add CNContactViewControllerDelegate to your ViewController
class ViewController: UIViewController , CNContactViewControllerDelegate {
func addPhoneNumber(phNo : String) {
if #available(iOS 9.0, *) {
let store = CNContactStore()
let contact = CNMutableContact()
let homePhone = CNLabeledValue(label: CNLabelHome, value: CNPhoneNumber(stringValue :phNo ))
contact.phoneNumbers = [homePhone]
let controller = CNContactViewController(forUnknownContact : contact)
controller.contactStore = store
controller.delegate = self
self.navigationController?.setNavigationBarHidden(false, animated: true)
self.navigationController!.pushViewController(controller, animated: true)
}
}
You Can Do Something Like This.
extension ViewController: CNContactViewControllerDelegate {
func showNewContactViewController() {
let contactViewController: CNContactViewController = CNContactViewController(forNewContact: nil)
contactViewController.contactStore = CNContactStore()
contactViewController.delegate = self
let navigationController: UINavigationController = UINavigationController(rootViewController: contactViewController)
present(navigationController, animated: false) {
print("Present")
}
}
}
Swift 4
import ContactsUI
implement delegate CNContactViewControllerDelegate
#IBAction func UserTap_Handler(_ sender: Any) {
self.navigationController?.isNavigationBarHidden = false
let con = CNContact()
let vc = CNContactViewController(forNewContact: con)
vc.delegate = self
_ = self.navigationController?.pushViewController(vc, animated: true)
}
//MARK:- contacts delegates
func contactViewController(_ viewController: CNContactViewController, didCompleteWith contact: CNContact?) {
print("dismiss contact")
self.navigationController?.popViewController(animated: true)
}
func contactViewController(_ viewController: CNContactViewController, shouldPerformDefaultActionFor property: CNContactProperty) -> Bool {
return true
}

iOS Swift CNContactPickerViewController search contact and add to selection

I am using iOS 9 and Swift 2.2
I have implemented iOS inbuilt CNContactPickerViewController using CNContactPickerDelegate to get the contact numbers,
In the CNContactPickerViewController Screen, when I click on search field on top and search for a name, I need to add that name to my selection but nothing happens after tapping the contact.
I searched everywhere and dint find any solution to this
Do I need to add anything to my code or is it a iOS 9 bug
#IBAction func AddBtnKlkFnc(sender: AnyObject)
{
let contactPicker = CNContactPickerViewController()
contactPicker.delegate = self
contactPicker.displayedPropertyKeys =
[CNContactPhoneNumbersKey]
self.presentViewController(contactPicker, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
func contactPicker(picker: CNContactPickerViewController, didSelectContacts ContctAryVar: [CNContact])
{
for ContctVar in ContctAryVar
{
let ContctDtlVar = ContctDtlCls()
ContctDtlVar.ManNamVar = CNContactFormatter.stringFromContact(ContctVar, style: .FullName)!
for ContctNumVar: CNLabeledValue in ContctVar.phoneNumbers
{
var MobNumVar = ((ContctNumVar.value as! CNPhoneNumber).valueForKey("digits") as? String)!
if(MobNumVar.Len() > 10)
{
MobNumVar = MobNumVar.GetLstSubSrgFnc(10)
}
ContctDtlVar.MobNumVar = MobNumVar
ContctDtlAryVar.append(ContctDtlVar)
}
}
}
The search results seem to be working in single selection mode only, so make sure you implement
func contactPicker(CNContactPickerViewController, didSelect: CNContact)
only, but not
func contactPicker(CNContactPickerViewController, didSelect: [CNContact])
If you implement both, the version wich takes only one CNContact as argument is ignored and the multi selection mode is used instead.
Use this updated code and
#IBAction func AddBtnKlkFnc(sender: AnyObject)
{
let contactPicker = CNContactPickerViewController()
contactPicker.delegate = self
contactPicker.displayedPropertyKeys =
[CNContactPhoneNumbersKey]
self.presentViewController(contactPicker, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
func contactPicker(picker: CNContactPickerViewController, didSelectContacts ContctAryVar: [CNContact])
{
for ContctVar in ContctAryVar
{
let ContctDtlVar = ContctDtlCls()
ContctDtlVar.ManNamVar = CNContactFormatter.stringFromContact(ContctVar, style: .FullName)!
for ContctNumVar: CNLabeledValue in ContctVar.phoneNumbers
{
var MobNumVar = ((ContctNumVar.value as! CNPhoneNumber).valueForKey("digits") as? String)!
if(MobNumVar.Len() > 10)
{
MobNumVar = MobNumVar.GetLstSubSrgFnc(10)
}
ContctDtlVar.MobNumVar = MobNumVar
ContctDtlAryVar.append(ContctDtlVar)
}
}
delegate.didFetchContacts([contact])
navigationController?.popViewControllerAnimated(true)
}
Here is a swift 4 version
#IBAction func addPhoneContact(_ sender: UIButton) {
let contactPicker = CNContactPickerViewController()
contactPicker.delegate = self
contactPicker.displayedPropertyKeys =
[CNContactPhoneNumbersKey]
self.present(contactPicker, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
extension ViewController: CNContactPickerDelegate {
func contactPicker(_ picker: CNContactPickerViewController, didSelect contact: CNContact) {
picker.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
let name = CNContactFormatter.string(from: contact, style: .fullName)
for number in contact.phoneNumbers {
let mobile = number.value.value(forKey: "digits") as? String
if (mobile?.count)! > 7 {
// your code goes here
}
}
}
}
Multi selection and search are mutually exclusive. If you want search to be working you have to go with single selection only and implement only single selection delegate method.
