Usage
OpalImagePicker is presented much like UIImagePickerController. As a normal View Controller.
swiftlet imagePicker = OpalImagePickerController() presentOpalImagePickerController(imagePicker, animated: true, select: { (assets) in //Select Assets }, cancel: { //Cancel })
Or
swiftlet imagePicker = OpalImagePickerController() imagePicker.imagePickerDelegate = self present(imagePicker, animated: true, completion: nil)
OpalImagePicker has three delegate methods to notify you when images have been selected, or the picker has been cancelled. This is only necessary if you choose not to use the presentOpalImagePickerController(_:animated:select:cancel:completion:) function.
swiftoptional func imagePicker(_ picker: OpalImagePickerController, didFinishPickingAssets assets: [PHAsset]) optional func imagePickerDidCancel(_ picker: OpalImagePickerController)
OpalImagePicker also allows you to use external images. You may want to use images from Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter for example. You can do this either using the delegate methods below or the following function in Swift presentOpalImagePickerController(_: animated: maximumSelectionsAllowed: numberOfExternalItems: externalItemsTitle: externalURLForIndex: selectAssets: selectExternalURLs: cancel: completion:) function.
swiftoptional func imagePickerNumberOfExternalItems(_ picker: OpalImagePickerController) -> Int optional func imagePicker(_ picker: OpalImagePickerController, imageURLforExternalItemAtIndex index: Int) -> URL? optional func imagePickerTitleForExternalItems(_ picker: OpalImagePickerController) -> String optional func imagePicker(_ picker: OpalImagePickerController, didFinishPickingExternalURLs urls: [URL])
OpalImagePicker supports allowing users to customize user interface features
swiftlet imagePicker = OpalImagePickerController() //Change color of selection overlay to white imagePicker.selectionTintColor = UIColor.white.withAlphaComponent(0.7) //Change color of image tint to black imagePicker.selectionImageTintColor = UIColor.black //Change image to X rather than checkmark imagePicker.selectionImage = UIImage(named: "x_image") //Change status bar style imagePicker.statusBarPreference = UIStatusBarStyle.lightContent //Limit maximum allowed selections to 5 imagePicker.maximumSelectionsAllowed = 5 //Only allow image media type assets imagePicker.allowedMediaTypes = Set([PHAssetMediaType.image]) //Change default localized strings displayed to the user let configuration = OpalImagePickerConfiguration() configuration.maximumSelectionsAllowedMessage = NSLocalizedString("You cannot select that many images!", comment: "") imagePicker.configuration = configuration
