How can I present a UIActionSheet in Swift within an iOS app?
Here is my code for displaying a UIActionSheet:
@IBAction func downloadSheet(sender: AnyObject) {
let optionMenu = UIAlertController(title: nil, message: "Choose Option", preferredStyle: .actionSheet)
let saveAction = UIAlertAction(title: "Save", style: .default, handler: {
(alert: UIAlertAction!) -> Void in
println("Saved")
})
let deleteAction = UIAlertAction(title: "Delete", style: .default, handler: {
(alert: UIAlertAction!) -> Void in
println("Deleted")
})
let cancelAction = UIAlertAction(title: "Cancel", style: .cancel, handler: {
(alert: UIAlertAction!) -> Void in
println("Cancelled")
})
optionMenu.addAction(deleteAction)
optionMenu.addAction(saveAction)
optionMenu.addAction(cancelAction)
self.presentViewController(optionMenu, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
Enter Swift as Language and Storyboard as User Interface. Choose Next. Go to the Storyboard, drag a Button from the Object Library to the View Controller inside the Storyboard. Double-click the Button and give it a title of"Display Action Sheet".
To display your action sheet in a popover, specify your popover's anchor point using the popoverPresentationController property of your alert controller. It is safe to configure this property regardless of the underlying device.
Overview. In apps that target versions of iOS prior to iOS 8, use the UIActionSheet class to present the user with a set of alternatives for how to proceed with a given task. You can also use action sheets to prompt the user to confirm a potentially dangerous action.
An action sheet is a specific style of alert that appears in response to a control or action, and presents a set of two or more choices related to the current context.
Updated for Swift 4/5
Works for iOS 11-14
Some of the other answers are okay but I ended up mixing and matching a few of them to rather come up with this :
@IBAction func showAlert(sender: AnyObject) {
let alert = UIAlertController(title: "Title", message: "Please Select an Option", preferredStyle: .actionSheet)
alert.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Approve", style: .default , handler:{ (UIAlertAction)in
print("User click Approve button")
}))
alert.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Edit", style: .default , handler:{ (UIAlertAction)in
print("User click Edit button")
}))
alert.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Delete", style: .destructive , handler:{ (UIAlertAction)in
print("User click Delete button")
}))
alert.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Dismiss", style: .cancel, handler:{ (UIAlertAction)in
print("User click Dismiss button")
}))
//uncomment for iPad Support
//alert.popoverPresentationController?.sourceView = self.view
self.present(alert, animated: true, completion: {
print("completion block")
})
}
Enjoy :)
Your Approach is fine, but you can add UIActionSheet
with other way with ease.
You can add UIActionSheetDelegate
in UIViewController` like
class ViewController: UIViewController ,UIActionSheetDelegate
Set you method like,
@IBAction func downloadSheet(sender: AnyObject)
{
let actionSheet = UIActionSheet(title: "Choose Option", delegate: self, cancelButtonTitle: "Cancel", destructiveButtonTitle: nil, otherButtonTitles: "Save", "Delete")
actionSheet.showInView(self.view)
}
You can get your button index when it clicked like
func actionSheet(actionSheet: UIActionSheet, clickedButtonAtIndex buttonIndex: Int)
{
println("\(buttonIndex)")
switch (buttonIndex){
case 0:
println("Cancel")
case 1:
println("Save")
case 2:
println("Delete")
default:
println("Default")
//Some code here..
}
}
Update 1: for iOS8+
//Create the AlertController and add Its action like button in Actionsheet
let actionSheetControllerIOS8: UIAlertController = UIAlertController(title: "Please select", message: "Option to select", preferredStyle: .ActionSheet)
let cancelActionButton = UIAlertAction(title: "Cancel", style: .cancel) { _ in
print("Cancel")
}
actionSheetControllerIOS8.addAction(cancelActionButton)
let saveActionButton = UIAlertAction(title: "Save", style: .default)
{ _ in
print("Save")
}
actionSheetControllerIOS8.addAction(saveActionButton)
let deleteActionButton = UIAlertAction(title: "Delete", style: .default)
{ _ in
print("Delete")
}
actionSheetControllerIOS8.addAction(deleteActionButton)
self.present(actionSheetControllerIOS8, animated: true, completion: nil)
