I've set up my UIActivityViewController and mail shows up. But I can't figure out how to get Facebook/Twitter to work? I have read somewhere that since obviously the Xcode doesn't have Facebook/Twitter signed in, iOS7 doesn't show the app?
My code:
NSArray *activityItems = #[#"Hello"];
UIActivityViewController *activityViewController = [[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:activityItems applicationActivities:nil];
activityViewController.excludedActivityTypes = #[UIActivityTypePostToWeibo, UIActivityTypeAssignToContact ];
[self presentViewController:activityViewController animated:YES completion:NULL];

I am using ActivityViewController for sending mail from App.
I was able to auto fill subject and body but not participants.
Example code :
NSURL *recipients = [NSURL URLWithString:#"mailto:foo#bar.com"]; //Not working
UIActivityViewController *activityViewController =
[[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:#[recipients, #"bodyText"]
applicationActivities:nil];
[activityViewController setValue:mailSubject forKey:#"Subject"];
activityViewController.excludedActivityTypes = #[UIActivityTypeMessage, UIActivityTypePostToFacebook, UIActivityTypePostToFlickr, UIActivityTypePostToVimeo, UIActivityTypePostToTencentWeibo, UIActivityTypePostToWeibo];
[self.navigationController presentViewController:activityViewController
animated:YES
completion:^{
}];
MailTo participants is not working.
When i run the code, pop up is coming with selected mail app but to field is empty.
I am trying to send user location to facebook and whatsapp from my app by UIActivityViewController.
- (IBAction)shareUserLocation:(id)sender {
shareArray = [[NSArray alloc]initWithObjects:[NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"http://maps.apple.com/maps?q=%f,%f",location.coordinate.latitude,location.coordinate.longitude]],nil];
UIActivityViewController *controller = [[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:shareArray applicationActivities:nil];
controller.excludedActivityTypes = #[];
[self presentViewController:controller animated:YES completion:nil];
}
Its working but opening the location in apple maps.
Is there a way I can open the location in Google maps.
P.S- I have not tried whatsApp i have only tested for facebook.
If you want to open a Google Maps URL in your Google Maps iOS app, you can use comgooglemapsurl://maps.google.com/?q=%f,%f. If you want to show it in browser, you can do https://maps.google.com/?q=%f,%f.
Sample code:
-(void)testURL:(CLLocation*)location {
NSArray *shareArray;
if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:[[NSURL alloc] initWithString:#"comgooglemaps://"]]) {
shareArray = [[NSArray alloc]initWithObjects:[NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"comgooglemapsurl://maps.google.com/?q=%f,%f",location.coordinate.latitude,location.coordinate.longitude]],nil];
} else {
shareArray = [[NSArray alloc]initWithObjects:[NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"https://maps.google.com/?q=%f,%f",location.coordinate.latitude,location.coordinate.longitude]],nil];
}
UIActivityViewController *controller = [[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:shareArray applicationActivities:nil];
controller.excludedActivityTypes = #[];
[self presentViewController:controller animated:YES completion:nil];
}
I integrated a sharing option into my app and everything seems fine, basically I excluded every type of UIActivity except for Message, Twitter, and Facebook, and when I tested to see if it functions, what I see in the text box is
"I got a new highscore!
com.apple.UIKit.activity.Message
com.apple.UIKit.activity.PostToFacebook
com.apple.UiKit.activity.PostToTwitter".
and the text appears in each of activities.
Is there anyway to remove the text, or is it supposed to be that way?
Here is a method in my MainViewController which presents the UIActivityViewController.
-(void)sharedView {
APActivityProvider *APActivityPro = [[APActivityProvider alloc] init];
NSArray *activites = #[APActivityPro,UIActivityTypeMessage, UIActivityTypePostToFacebook, UIActivityTypePostToTwitter];
activityController = [[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:activites applicationActivities:nil];
activityController.excludedActivityTypes = #[UIActivityTypePostToWeibo,
UIActivityTypeMail,
UIActivityTypePrint,
UIActivityTypeCopyToPasteboard,
UIActivityTypeAssignToContact,
UIActivityTypeSaveToCameraRoll,
UIActivityTypeAddToReadingList,
UIActivityTypePostToFlickr,
UIActivityTypePostToVimeo,
UIActivityTypePostToTencentWeibo,
UIActivityTypeAirDrop];
[self presentViewController:activityController animated:YES completion:nil];
[activityController setCompletionHandler:^(NSString *activityType, BOOL completed)
{
if (completed)
{
UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:#""
message:NSLocalizedString(#"Post Sent!",#"the confirmation of the sent message/post")
delegate:nil
cancelButtonTitle:NSLocalizedString(#"OK",#"done")
otherButtonTitles:nil];
[alert show];
}
}
];
}
And also my code in my APActivityProvider.m file.
-(id) activityViewController:(UIActivityViewController*)activityViewController
itemForActivityType:(NSString *)activityType
{
if ([activityType isEqualToString:UIActivityTypeMessage])
return NSLocalizedString(#"I got a new highscore!",#"Comment for message");
if ([activityType isEqualToString:UIActivityTypePostToFacebook])
return NSLocalizedString(#"I got a new highscore!",#"Comment for Facebook");
if ([activityType isEqualToString:UIActivityTypePostToTwitter])
return NSLocalizedString(#"I got a new highscore!",#"Comment for twitter");
return nil;
}
- (id) activityViewControllerPlaceholderItem:(UIActivityViewController *)
activityViewController
{
return #"";
}
It would appear you are using the API incorrectly. Specifically:
NSArray *activites = #[APActivityPro,UIActivityTypeMessage, UIActivityTypePostToFacebook, UIActivityTypePostToTwitter];
activityController = [[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:activites applicationActivities:nil];
Activity Items are your content (Strings, Images, etc) while applicationItems are the custom activity options you add to the default system ones (something you code such as an open in app store activity). You do not need to tell the UIActivityViewController what system activities you want. All are enabled by default.
For an example of how to use this API, I have included the following:
NSNumber *AppStoreID = [NSNumber numberWithInt:550008982];
NSArray *activityItems =
#[ AppStoreID ];
NSArray *applicationActivities =
#[ [ATFAppStoreActivity alloc] ];
UIActivityViewController *activityViewController =
[[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:activityItems
applicationActivities:applicationActivities];
[self presentViewController:activityViewController animated:YES completion:nil];
Here, I have my subclassed UIActivity (ATFAppStoreActivity) that takes an NSNumber to display the App Store page for that app.
Include facebook, twitter, message, email and so on ,like this:
In your ViewController.m :
NSString *message = #"The Flyer http://flyerdream.tumblr.com";
UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"flyer"];
NSArray *arrayOfActivityItems = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:message, image, nil];
UIActivityViewController *activityVC = [[UIActivityViewController alloc]
initWithActivityItems:arrayOfActivityItems applicationActivities:nil];
[self.navigationController presentViewController:activityVC animated:YES completion:nil];
I'm getting the following result when I try to initialize the Messenger component of UIActivityViewController:
I'm using this code to instantiate my UIActivityViewController:
NSString *textToShare = #"Text that will be shared";
NSArray *itemsToShare = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:textToShare, nil];
UIActivityViewController *activityVC = [[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:itemsToShare applicationActivities:nil];
activityVC.excludedActivityTypes = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects: UIActivityTypePrint, UIActivityTypeCopyToPasteboard, UIActivityTypeAssignToContact, UIActivityTypeSaveToCameraRoll, UIActivityTypePostToWeibo,UIActivityTypePostToFacebook,UIActivityTypePostToTwitter, nil];
[activityVC setValue:#"My Subject Text" forKey:#"subject"];
[self presentViewController:activityVC animated:YES completion:nil];
I then get the following error in my logs when I attempt to send with Message
Launch Services: Unable to find app identifier com.apple.MobileSMS
2013-07-31 01:27:15.180 Coolist[54111:c07] Application tried to push a nil view controller on target <MFMessageComposeViewController: 0xa38db30>.
Is this just a simulator problem?
