How to make keyboard dismiss when I press out of searchbar on Swift?

Question

I try to make my searchbar on swift, but I have a problem to dismiss keyboard on screen when I pressed out of searchbar. When I try with textfield, it works perfectly fine with this code.

override func touchesBegan(touches: NSSet, withEvent event: UIEvent) {         self.view.endEditing(true)     }    

It work when i press out of my textfield and then the keyboard is gone. I want to make like that with my searchbar, because when I use searchbar and use the same way like textfield, it doesn't work at all. Any reference or code is very useful for me.

Answer 1

try this :

self.mySearchController.searchBar.endEditing(true) 

replace mySearchController with your created controller name.. If you did not create it programmatically but instead you just dragged a search bar from library then IBoutlet your searchable to your class and reference it as:

self.mySearchBar.endEditing(true) 

Answer 2

I found it easier and simplier to use Table View for dismissal. (If you're using table view)

Swift 4:

self.tableView.keyboardDismissMode = .onDrag
