I am trying to using CoreSpotlight API in application , I have plist file which has a several items on it for example animals' name . So I need to set title string equal to on of those object , for example if users search Lion , the line name and for example its features appears on the spotlight . Here is my code :
- (void)setupCoreSpotlightSearch
{
CSSearchableItemAttributeSet *attibuteSet = [[CSSearchableItemAttributeSet alloc] initWithItemContentType:(__bridge NSString *)kUTTypeImage];
NSURL *url = [[NSBundle mainBundle] URLForResource:#"animals" withExtension:#"plist"];
NSArray *playDictionariesArray = [[NSArray alloc ] initWithContentsOfURL:url];
NSString *getNames = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#",playDictionariesArray];
NSLog(#"%#",getNames) ;
attibuteSet.title =getNames;
attibuteSet.contentDescription = #"blah blah ";
CSSearchableItem *item = [[CSSearchableItem alloc] initWithUniqueIdentifier:#"app name"
domainIdentifier:#"com.compont.appname"
attributeSet:attibuteSet];
if (item) {
[[CSSearchableIndex defaultSearchableIndex] indexSearchableItems:#[item] completionHandler:^(NSError * _Nullable error) {
if (!error) {
NSLog(#"Search item indexed");
}
}];
}
}
The problem is getNames returns all names !!! how can I filter it when is user is searching an specific word from animals.plist
Thanks .
EDIT [Plist Image]:
You can maintain NSArray and iterate through playDictionariesArray, creating & initialising CSSearchableItem object with that particular entry in your data source.
- (void)setupCoreSpotlightSearch
{
NSURL *url = [[NSBundle mainBundle] URLForResource:#"animals" withExtension:#"plist"];
NSArray *playDictionariesArray = [[NSArray alloc ] initWithContentsOfURL:url];
NSMutableArray * searchableItems = [[NSMutableArray alloc]init];
for(object in playDictionariesArray)
{
CSSearchableItemAttributeSet *attibuteSet = [[CSSearchableItemAttributeSet alloc] initWithItemContentType:(__bridge NSString *)kUTTypeImage];
attibuteSet.title =[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#",object]; //retrive title from object and add here
//attibuteSet.contentDescription = #"blah blah "; // retrieve description from object and add here
CSSearchableItem *item = [[CSSearchableItem alloc] initWithUniqueIdentifier:#"app name"
domainIdentifier:#"com.compont.appname"
attributeSet:attibuteSet];
[searchableItems addObject:item];
}
if (searchableItems) {
[[CSSearchableIndex defaultSearchableIndex] indexSearchableItems:searchableItems completionHandler:^(NSError * _Nullable error) {
if (!error) {
NSLog(#"Search item indexed");
}
}];
}
}
I haven't ran and tested the code.
you are not looping through each key. Use the code provided in this question.
CoreSpotlight indexing
Try it on a device that supports indexing.
NOT iPhone 4/4s or iPad.

I'm using the dropbox objc API and I'm trying to get all thumbnails in a specific dropbox folder.
But I'm completely stuck at DBFILESGetThumbnailBatchArg. How do I initiate paths to all images in a folder?
This is the line I'm stuck at:
[[client.filesRoutes getThumbnailBatch:<#(nonnull NSArray<DBFILESThumbnailArg *> *)#>]
setResponseBlock:^(
DBFILESGetThumbnailBatchResult * _Nullable result,
DBFILESGetThumbnailBatchError * _Nullable routeError,
DBRequestError * _Nullable networkError) { etc etc..
Documentation says
DBFILESThumbnailArg *arg = [[DBFILESThumbnailArg alloc] initWithPath:<#(nonnull NSString *)#>];
DBFILESGetThumbnailBatchArg *batchArg = [[DBFILESGetThumbnailBatchArg alloc]
initWithEntries:<#(nonnull NSArray<DBFILESThumbnailArg *> *)#>];
How do I init a list of paths of DBFILESThumbnailArg?
Link to documentation:
https://dropbox.github.io/dropbox-sdk-obj-c/api-docs/latest/Classes/DBFILESRouteObjects.html#/c:objc(cs)DBFILESRouteObjects(cm)DBFILESGetThumbnailBatch
As you found, the getThumbnailBatch method expects an NSArray<DBFILESThumbnailArg *>, so calling it would look like this:
NSArray<DBFILESThumbnailArg *> *entries = #[[[DBFILESThumbnailArg alloc] initWithPath:#"/test1.jpg"], [[DBFILESThumbnailArg alloc] initWithPath:#"/test2.jpg"]];
[[client.filesRoutes getThumbnailBatch:entries]
setResponseBlock:^(DBFILESGetThumbnailBatchResult *result, DBFILESGetThumbnailBatchError *routeError, DBRequestError *networkError) {
if (result) {
NSLog(#"result:");
NSLog(#"%#", result);
} else if (routeError) {
NSLog(#"routeError:");
NSLog(#"%#", routeError);
} else if (networkError) {
NSLog(#"networkError:");
NSLog(#"%#", networkError);
};
}];
I solved this using a NSMutableArray, posting my solution if others come looking:
//Create a temporary NSMutableArray
NSMutableArray *thumbArgMutable = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
for (NSString* image in _images)
{
//Create DBFILESThumbnailArg from NSString
DBFILESThumbnailArg *arg = [[DBFILESThumbnailArg alloc] initWithPath:image];
//Add path as DBFILESThumbnailArg to NSMutableArray
[thumbArgMutable addObject:arg];
}
//Copy NSMutableArray to a new DBFILESThumbnailArg
DBFILESThumbnailArg *thumbArg = [thumbArgMutable copy];
//create a DBFILESGetThumbnailBatchArg and init with the copied DBFILESThumbnailArg
DBFILESGetThumbnailBatchArg *thumbArgBatch = [[DBFILESGetThumbnailBatchArg alloc] initWithEntries:thumbArg];
DBUserClient *client = [[DBUserClient alloc] initWithAccessToken:#"TOKEN"];
//use property entries from DBFILESGetThumbnailBatchArg
[[client.filesRoutes getThumbnailBatch:thumbArgBatch.entries]
setResponseBlock:^(DBFILESGetThumbnailBatchResult * _Nullable result,
DBFILESGetThumbnailBatchError * _Nullable routeError,
DBRequestError * _Nullable networkError)
{
if (result) {
NSLog(#"%#\n", result);
//loop all downloaded thumbnails
for (DBFILESGetThumbnailBatchResultEntry *data in result.entries)
{
//extract data from each base64 encoded thumbnail string
NSData *thumbData = [[NSData alloc] initWithBase64EncodedString:data.success.thumbnail options:0];
//create UIImage from data
UIImage *thumbImage = [UIImage imageWithData:thumbData];
}
}
else { //if download failed
NSLog(#"%#\n%#\n", routeError, networkError);
}
this is my json content.
[
{
"sha":"30eae8a47d0203ac81699d8fc2ab2632de2d0bba",
"commit":{
"author":{
"name":"Madhura Bhave",
"email":"mbhave#pivotal.io",
"date":"2017-03-23T23:14:32Z"
},
"committer":{
"name":"Madhura Bhave",
"email":"mbhave#pivotal.io",
"date":"2017-03-23T23:14:32Z"
},
"message":"Merge branch '1.5.x'",
}
}
]
and this is my main.i just want to retrieve key value from message and name,email,date from committer dictionary.i got stuck how to do that.
NSMutableArray *CommitArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
for (NSDictionary *CommitDictionary in CommitJson) {
CommitDict *commitDictObj = [[CommitDict alloc] init];
commitDictObj.message = [CommitDictionary objectForKey:#"message"];
for (NSDictionary *CommitterDictionary in [CommitDictionary objectForKey:#"committer"]) {
Committer *author = [[Committer alloc] init];
author.name = [CommitterDictionary objectForKey:#"name"];
author.email = [CommitterDictionary objectForKey:#"email"];
author.date = [CommitterDictionary objectForKey:#"date"];
}
[CommitArray addObject:commitDictObj];
}
for (int i =0 ; i < [CommitArray count] ; i++){
CommitDict *commitDictObj = [CommitArray objectAtIndex:i];
NSLog(#"Commit Message: %#", commitDictObj.message);
}
return 0;
}
}
i try fetch the json and display it value of message,name,email and date.how can i log the value of message, name, email and date?
Your array contains a dictionary, and that dictionary contains the commit dictionary, not the commit dictionary directly. Replace that part of your code:
for (NSDictionary *CommitDictionary in CommitJson) {
CommitDict *commitDictObj = [[CommitDict alloc] init];
With that:
for (NSDictionary *shaCommitDictionary in CommitJson) {
CommitDict *commitDictObj = [[CommitDict alloc] init];
NSDictionary *CommitDictionary = [shaCommitDictionary objectForKey:#"commit"];
(1) Convert JSON to NSDictionary
NSData *jsonData= ... // Assume you got the data already loaded
NSError *error = nil;
NSDictionary *dictionary = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:data options:kNilOptions error:&error];
(2) Access the dictionary values (fast enumeration available by now!!
NSString *message = dictionary[#"message"];
NSDictionary *author = dictionary[#"author"];
NSString *name = author[#"author"];
NSString *email = author[#"author"];
NSString *date = author[#"author"];
// OR:
// NSString *name = dictionary[#"author"][#"author"];
// NSString *email = dictionary[#"author"][#"author"];
// NSString *date = dictionary[#"author"][#"author"];
And thats it. I think the tricky thing is to get the JSON Data to the NSDictionary?

I want to have access to the dealer name from the plist.
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
NSString *filePath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:#"Cars" ofType:#"plist"];
NSArray *array = [NSArray arrayWithContentsOfFile:filePath];
NSMutableArray *dealers = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
for (NSDictionary *object in array) {
Dealer *dealer = [[Dealer alloc] initWithDictionary:object];
[dealers addObject:dealer];
}
self.dealers = dealers;
From this, i access just the first dictionary from plist
The first NSDictinonary in you plist has Item 0 key that store Dealer NSDictinonary. Change your string code
Dealer *dealer = [[Dealer alloc] initWithDictionary:object];
to this
Dealer *dealer = [[Dealer alloc] initWithDictionary:object[#"Dealer"]];
i recommend you check the variables-array,object
I try to find how modify or write a cell in a google sheet.
I success to read my sheet (on my drive) with quickstart guide (I had copied and pasted this code : https://developers.google.com/sheets/quickstart/ios#step_3_set_up_the_sample). I had just changed the url by :
https://sheets.googleapis.com/v4/spreadsheets/my_spreadsheet_Id/values/Feuil1!A1:F
.
But impossible to find a code to write on cells of my sheet... when i look : https://developers.google.com/sheets/guides/values#methods. I don't understand where i should put my new data to the cell.
Exemple : i have "New York" on the cell A1.
i want to change "New York" by "Tahiti".
Do you know how do that ?
i tried this but not working :
- (void)modifyListe {
NSString *baseUrl = #"https://sheets.googleapis.com/v4/spreadsheets/";
NSString *spreadsheetId = #"{MySpredsheet_ID}"; // choisir la bonne
NSString *range = #"/values/Feuil1!G1:G1?valueInputOption=Tahiti";
baseUrl = [baseUrl stringByAppendingString:spreadsheetId];
baseUrl = [baseUrl stringByAppendingString:range];
[self.service fetchObjectWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:baseUrl]
objectClass:[GTLObject class]
delegate:self
didFinishSelector:#selector(displayMajorsWithServiceTicketT:finishedWithObject:error:)];
}
SOLUTION : Look second post
I think found the solution (inspired by this post) :
NSString *baseUrl = #"https://sheets.googleapis.com/v4/spreadsheets/MyspreadsheetID/values/Donnees!G1:G1?valueInputOption=USER_ENTERED";
NSURL *theURL = [NSURL URLWithString:baseUrl];
NSString *rangeKEY = #"range";
NSString *dimensionKEY = #"majorDimension";
NSMutableString *valuesKEY = [NSMutableString stringWithString:#"values"];
NSString *therange = #"Donnees!G1:G1";
NSString *themajorDimension = #"ROWS";
NSMutableString *string_Value = [NSMutableString stringWithString:#"theValue"];
NSMutableArray *ArrayOfString = [NSMutableArray array];
NSMutableArray *arrayOfArray = [NSMutableArray array];
[ArrayOfString addObject:string_Value];
[arrayOfArray addObject:ArrayOfString];
NSMutableDictionary *dicooo = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
[dicooo setObject:arrayOfArray forKey:valuesKEY];
[dicooo setObject:therange forKey:rangeKEY];
[dicooo setObject:themajorDimension forKey:dimensionKEY];
GTLObject *theobject ;
theobject = [GTLObject objectWithJSON:dicooo];
[self.service fetchObjectByUpdatingObject:theobject forURL:theURL delegate:self didFinishSelector:#selector(displayMajorsWithServiceTicketT:finishedWithObject:error:)];
When I launch I can see the modification on my sheet.
I have a code that accesses a Twitter feed and puts the text into a table. I then edited the code so I could display the text in my custom fashion in separate views, but I wanted to grab images from the tweets as well, and despite over an hour searching could not find a single reference. I have seen how to "Post" images, but to be clear, I need to get and "display" the images from the tweet in question.
Here are the highlights from my code that handles the Twitter Access:
-(void)twitterTimeLine
{
ACAccountStore *account = [[ACAccountStore alloc] init];
ACAccountType *accountType = [account accountTypeWithAccountTypeIdentifier:ACAccountTypeIdentifierTwitter];
[account requestAccessToAccountsWithType:accountType options:nil completion:^(BOOL granted, NSError *error) {
if (granted == YES)
{
NSArray *arrayOfAccounts = [account accountsWithAccountType:accountType];
if ([arrayOfAccounts count] > 0)
{
ACAccount *twitterAccount = [arrayOfAccounts lastObject]; // last account on list of accounts
NSURL *requestAPI = [NSURL URLWithString:#"https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json"];
NSMutableDictionary *parameters = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] init];
[parameters setObject:#"30" forKey:#"count"];
[parameters setObject:#"1" forKey:#"incude_entities"];
SLRequest *posts = [SLRequest requestForServiceType:SLServiceTypeTwitter requestMethod:SLRequestMethodGET URL:requestAPI parameters:parameters];
posts.account = twitterAccount;
[posts performRequestWithHandler:^(NSData *response, NSHTTPURLResponse *urlResponse, NSError *error) {
if (response)
{
// TODO: might want to check urlResponse.statusCode to stop early
NSError *jsonError; // use new instance here, you don't want to overwrite the error you got from the SLRequest
NSArray *array =[NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:response options:NSJSONReadingMutableLeaves error:&jsonError];
if (array) {
if ([array isKindOfClass:[NSArray class]]) {
self.array = array;
NSLog(#"resulted array: %#",self.array);
}
else {
// This should never happen
NSLog(#"Not an array! %# - %#", NSStringFromClass([array class]), array);
}
}
else {
// TODO: Handle error in release version, don't just dump out this information
NSLog(#"JSON Error %#", jsonError);
NSString *dataString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:response encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSLog(#"Received data: %#", dataString ? dataString : response); // print string representation if response is a string, or print the raw data object
}
}
else {
// TODO: show error information to user if request failed
NSLog(#"request failed %#", error);
}
self.array = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:response options:NSJSONReadingMutableLeaves error:&error];
if (self.array.count != 0)
{
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
[self.tableView reloadData]; // this part loads into table - important!
});
}
}];
}
}
else
{
NSLog(#"%#", [error localizedDescription]);
}
}];
}
and here is how I display the Tweet
-(UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *cellID = #"cellID";
UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:cellID];
if (cell == nil)
{
cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:cellID];
}
NSDictionary *tweet = _array[indexPath.row];
cell.textLabel.text = tweet[#"text"];
//NSString *element = [myArray objectAtIndex:2];
//NSString *element = myArray[2];
// I created some custom views to show the text, but kept the table for testing purposes
TemplateView *tempView = [viewArray objectAtIndex:testCounter];
tempView.TweetView.text = tweet[#"text"];
// -> this was what I was hoping for // tempView.ContentView.image = tweet[#"image"];
testCounter++;
if (testCounter >= 30)
{
testCounter = 0;
}
return cell;
}
I took out the key lines that I think is where I need to look:
tempView.TweetView.text = tweet[#"text"];
tempView.ContentView.image = tweet[#"image"];
// hoping that the latter would work as the first one does, but clearly it's not that simple
This might not be possible, if so, how would I get the images from the "link" (url) and make sure it is an image and not a video or other website?
I could set up a "word search" to grab text starting with http from the tweet and hopefully generate a URL from the string
TwitterKit doesn't seem to support images publicly.. I'm having the same stupid issue. The API internally holds images when using the built in tableview and datasource.. It requires a listID and a Slug.. However, when you want the images via JSON, you are out of luck! Even TWTRTweet object doesn't have entities or media properties!
Not sure how anyone can develop such an awful API.. In any case, I reversed the server calls made internally and found that it sends other "undocumented" parameters..
Example:
TWTRAPIClient *client = [[TWTRAPIClient alloc] init];
NSString *endpoint = #"https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json";
NSDictionary *params = #{#"screen_name":#"SCREEN_NAME_HERE",
#"count": #"30"};
will return NO MEDIA.. even if you have #"include_entities" : #"true".
Solution:
TWTRAPIClient *client = [[TWTRAPIClient alloc] init];
NSString *endpoint = #"https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json";
NSDictionary *params = #{#"screen_name":#"SCREEN_NAME_HERE",
#"count": #"30",
#"tweet_mode": #"extended"};
With tweet_mode set to extended (tweet_mode is an undocumented parameter), it will now return the media as part of the response.. This includes the "type" which is "photo" for images.
We can get tweets with images by applying "filter=images" query with "include_entities=true". It'll give tweets with media entities, under which we can see type="photo" and other related data.
For ex:
https://api.twitter.com/1.1/search/tweets.json?q=nature&include_entities=true&filter=images
Try this query at twitter developer console and see the response format: https://dev.twitter.com/rest/tools/console
Hope this will help.
