How to attach image from ImageView to E-mail within an App - ios

Question

Got the following. I made a simple IOS / Swift app that needs to send an image to a specific e-mail. What i already got working:
Take picture
Grap picture from existing photo's
Image is shown in Image View
Send button thats leads me to mail with already configured: recipient, subject and messagebody.
What i need to get working is how i can add the selected image from Image View to be added to the e-mail when i press send.
Following code is the one i use:
FOR TAKING AND SELECTING IMAGES:
#IBOutlet var imageView: UIImageView!
#IBOutlet weak var PicLabel: UILabel!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
#IBAction func FotoKnop(sender: AnyObject) {
}
#IBAction func chooseImageFromPhotoLibrary() {
let picker = UIImagePickerController()
picker.delegate = self
picker.sourceType = .PhotoLibrary
presentViewController(picker, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
#IBAction func chooseFromCamera() {
let picker = UIImagePickerController()
picker.delegate = self
picker.sourceType = .Camera
presentViewController(picker, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
func imagePickerController(picker: UIImagePickerController, didFinishPickingImage image: UIImage!, editingInfo: [NSObject : AnyObject]!) {
imageView.image = image
self.dismissViewControllerAnimated(true, completion: nil)
}
For e-mail
#IBAction func sendEmailButtonTapped(sender: AnyObject) {
let mailComposeViewController = configuredMailComposeViewController()
if MFMailComposeViewController.canSendMail() {
self.presentViewController(mailComposeViewController, animated: true, completion: nil)
} else {
}
}
func configuredMailComposeViewController() -> MFMailComposeViewController {
let mailComposerVC = MFMailComposeViewController()
mailComposerVC.mailComposeDelegate = self // Extremely important to set the --mailComposeDelegate-- property, NOT the --delegate-- property
mailComposerVC.setToRecipients(["jvanhattem#it-serve.nl"])
mailComposerVC.setSubject("Mail vanuit PicMail")
mailComposerVC.setMessageBody("Onderstaand de doorgestuurde informatie", isHTML:
false)
return mailComposerVC
}
func showSendMailErrorAlert() {
let sendMailErrorAlert = UIAlertView(title: "Could Not Send Email", message: "Your device could not send e-mail. Please check e-mail configuration and try again.", delegate: self, cancelButtonTitle: "OK")
sendMailErrorAlert.show()
}
// MARK: MFMailComposeViewControllerDelegate Method
func mailComposeController(controller: MFMailComposeViewController!, didFinishWithResult result: MFMailComposeResult, error: NSError!) {
controller.dismissViewControllerAnimated(true, completion: nil)
}
}
Any thoughts would be great!

func configuredMailComposeViewController() -> MFMailComposeViewController {
let mailComposerVC = MFMailComposeViewController()
mailComposerVC.mailComposeDelegate = self // Extremely important to set the --mailComposeDelegate-- property, NOT the --delegate-- property
mailComposerVC.setToRecipients(["jvanhattem#it-serve.nl"])
mailComposerVC.setSubject("Mail vanuit PicMail")
mailComposerVC.setMessageBody("Onderstaand de doorgestuurde informatie", isHTML:
false)
//Add Image as Attachment
if let image = imageView.image {
let data = UIImageJPEGRepresentation(image, 1.0)
mailComposerVC.addAttachmentData(data!, mimeType: "image/jpg", fileName: "image")
}
return mailComposerVC
}
