Swipe-able Table View Cell in iOS 9

Question

I want my table list to have a swipe-able menu like in iOS 8 (first introduced in iOS 7).

I've found a Ray Wenderlich guide that is clear on how to do it, but it was written a year and 4 months ago and the code is in Objective-C.

Did iOS 8 or the upcoming iOS 9 finally include this function in Apple's SDK? I know they made the "swipe to reveal delete function" built-in years ago. I don't want to waste my time implementing patched-together code to mimic the iOS 8 mail function, if Apple's new iOS is going to hand it to me in a neatly wrapped package.

Answer 1

Try this, updated for Swift 3 (Developer Docs)

override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, editActionsForRowAt: IndexPath) -> [UITableViewRowAction]? {     let more = UITableViewRowAction(style: .normal, title: "More") { action, index in         print("more button tapped")     }     more.backgroundColor = .lightGray          let favorite = UITableViewRowAction(style: .normal, title: "Favorite") { action, index in         print("favorite button tapped")     }     favorite.backgroundColor = .orange          let share = UITableViewRowAction(style: .normal, title: "Share") { action, index in         print("share button tapped")     }     share.backgroundColor = .blue          return [share, favorite, more] } 

Also implement this: (You can make it conditional, but here everything is editable)

override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, canEditRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> Bool {     return true } 

Answer 2

This code is work for me in the swift4.

Answer of the above screen is:-

 func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView,                    trailingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UISwipeActionsConfiguration?     {         // Write action code for the trash         let TrashAction = UIContextualAction(style: .normal, title:  "Trash", handler: { (ac:UIContextualAction, view:UIView, success:(Bool) -> Void) in             print("Update action ...")             success(true)         })         TrashAction.backgroundColor = .red          // Write action code for the Flag         let FlagAction = UIContextualAction(style: .normal, title:  "Flag", handler: { (ac:UIContextualAction, view:UIView, success:(Bool) -> Void) in             print("Update action ...")             success(true)         })         FlagAction.backgroundColor = .orange          // Write action code for the More         let MoreAction = UIContextualAction(style: .normal, title:  "More", handler: { (ac:UIContextualAction, view:UIView, success:(Bool) -> Void) in             print("Update action ...")             success(true)         })         MoreAction.backgroundColor = .gray           return UISwipeActionsConfiguration(actions: [TrashAction,FlagAction,MoreAction])     } 

Answer of the above screen:-

 func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView,                    leadingSwipeActionsConfigurationForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UISwipeActionsConfiguration?     {          let closeAction = UIContextualAction(style: .normal, title:  "Mark as Read", handler: { (ac:UIContextualAction, view:UIView, success:(Bool) -> Void) in             print("CloseAction ...")             success(true)         })         closeAction.backgroundColor = .blue         return UISwipeActionsConfiguration(actions: [closeAction])      } 

Write tableview Delegate method likewise:-

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {         return arrPerson.count     }      func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {          let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "cell", for: indexPath)         let personName = arrPerson[indexPath.row]         cell.textLabel?.text = personName.personName         return cell      } 

And in the viewDidLoad

override func viewDidLoad() {     super.viewDidLoad()      tblView.delegate = self     tblView.dataSource = self      let person1 = personData(personName: "Jonny", personAge: 30)     let person2 = personData(personName: "Chandan", personAge: 20)     let person3 = personData(personName: "Gopal", personAge: 28)     arrPerson.append(person1)    arrPerson.append(person2)    arrPerson.append(person3)  }
