How to fix this share button? - ios

Question

I'm working on a sprite kit game and I want to integrate a twitter sharing module at the end of gameplay.
This was the BASIC code I tried on an empty scene to test things:
#implementation gameOverScene
-(id)initWithSize:(CGSize)size {
if (self = [super initWithSize:size]) {
/* Setup your scene here */
self.backgroundColor = [SKColor orangeColor];
}
return self;
}
-(void)showTweetSheet {
//Create an instance of the tweet sheet
SLComposeViewController *tweetSheet = [SLComposeViewController composeViewControllerForServiceType:SLServiceTypeTwitter];
tweetSheet.completionHandler = ^ (SLComposeViewControllerResult result) {
switch (result) {
//the tweet was canceled
case SLComposeViewControllerResultCancelled:
break;
//the user hit send
case SLComposeViewControllerResultDone:
break;
}
};
//sets body of the tweet
[tweetSheet setInitialText:#"testing text"];
//add an image to the tweet
if (![tweetSheet addImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"name.png"]]) {
NSLog(#"Unable to add the image!");
}
//add a URL to the tweet, you can add multiple URLS:
if (![tweetSheet addURL:[NSURL URLWithString:#"url.com"]]) {
NSLog(#"Unable to add the URL!");
}
}
-(void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
/* Called when a touch begins */
for (UITouch *touch in touches) {
CGPoint location = [touch locationInNode:self];
//presents the tweet sheet to the user
[self presentViewController:tweetSheet animated:NO completion:^{
NSLog(#"tweet sheet has been presented");
}];
}
}
But I keep getting the error "use of undeclared identifier" when trying to present the tweetSheet view controller when the user taps on the scene.
How can I properly integrate the social framework into my project? is it possible on sprite kit?

Answer 1

First of all, since you have created a method, you do not need to present it from the touch delegate. Instead, call the showTweetSheet method.
-(void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
/* Called when a touch begins */
for (UITouch *touch in touches) {
CGPoint location = [touch locationInNode:self];
//presents the tweet sheet to the user
[self showTweetSheet];
}
}
You can present it using the following code:
-(void)showTweetSheet
{
.
.
.
//Your initialisation as before
[self.view.window.rootViewController presentViewController:tweetSheet animated:YES completion:^{}];
}
Since this is an SKScene, it cannot present a viewController by itself. You need to present the viewController from another viewController, which can be accessed using the self.view.window.rootViewController property.
