I am 100% sure this has been answered but the answers I am finding I cannot seem to make fit into my solution.
Starting from the beginning I have my ShareViewController where I have two imageViews put one on one, and in order to make it one image I am taking a screenshot of that imageView size. The code for taking screenshot I have taken here iOS: what's the fastest, most performant way to make a screenshot programmatically?
Here is my class:
import UIKit
import Photos
class ShareViewController: UIViewController, UIDocumentInteractionControllerDelegate {
var defaultImage: UIImage? = nil
var documentController: UIDocumentInteractionController!
@IBOutlet weak var imageView: UIImageView!
@IBOutlet weak var overlayImageView: UIImageView!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
guard let image = defaultImage else {
return
}
self.imageView.image = image
self.imageView.contentMode = .ScaleAspectFill
let subimage1 = UIImage(named: "overlay")
self.overlayImageView.image = subimage1
self.imageView.clipsToBounds = true
}
@IBAction func shareButton(sender: UIButton) {
self.screenshot()
self.shareToInstagram()
_ = self.imageView.image!
let fetchOptions = PHFetchOptions()
fetchOptions.sortDescriptors = [NSSortDescriptor(key: "creationDate", ascending: false)]
let fetchResult = PHAsset.fetchAssetsWithMediaType(.Image, options: fetchOptions)
if let lastAsset = fetchResult.firstObject as? PHAsset {
let localIdentifier = lastAsset.localIdentifier
let u = "instagram://library?LocalIdentifier=" + localIdentifier
_ = NSURL(string: u)!
}
}
// MARK: - Make Screenshot of ImageView
class func screenshot() -> UIImage {
var imageSize = CGSizeZero
let orientation = UIApplication.sharedApplication().statusBarOrientation
if UIInterfaceOrientationIsPortrait(orientation) {
imageSize = UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds.size
} else {
imageSize = CGSize(width: UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds.size.height, height: UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds.size.width)
}
UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(imageSize, false, 0)
let context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()
for window in UIApplication.sharedApplication().windows {
CGContextSaveGState(context)
CGContextTranslateCTM(context, window.center.x, window.center.y)
CGContextConcatCTM(context, window.transform)
CGContextTranslateCTM(context, -window.bounds.size.width * window.layer.anchorPoint.x, -window.bounds.size.height * window.layer.anchorPoint.y)
if orientation == .LandscapeLeft {
CGContextRotateCTM(context, CGFloat(M_PI_2))
CGContextTranslateCTM(context, 0, -imageSize.width)
} else if orientation == .LandscapeRight {
CGContextRotateCTM(context, -CGFloat(M_PI_2))
CGContextTranslateCTM(context, -imageSize.height, 0)
} else if orientation == .PortraitUpsideDown {
CGContextRotateCTM(context, CGFloat(M_PI))
CGContextTranslateCTM(context, -imageSize.width, -imageSize.height)
}
if window.respondsToSelector(#selector(UIView.drawViewHierarchyInRect(_:afterScreenUpdates:))) {
window.drawViewHierarchyInRect(window.bounds, afterScreenUpdates: true)
} else if let context = context {
window.layer.renderInContext(context)
}
CGContextRestoreGState(context)
}
let image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()
UIGraphicsEndImageContext()
return image
}
// MARK: - Share photo to Instagram
func displayAlert(title: String, message: String) {
let alertController = UIAlertController(title: title, message: message, preferredStyle: .Alert)
alertController.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "OK", style: .Default, handler: nil))
presentViewController(alertController, animated: true, completion: nil)
return
}
func displayShareSheet(shareContent:String) {
let activityViewController = UIActivityViewController(activityItems: [shareContent as NSString], applicationActivities: nil)
presentViewController(activityViewController, animated: true, completion: {})
}
func shareToInstagram() {
let instagramURL = NSURL(string: "instagram://app")
if (UIApplication.sharedApplication().canOpenURL(instagramURL!)) {
let imageData = UIImageJPEGRepresentation(self.imageView.image!, 100)
let captionString = "caption"
let writePath = (NSTemporaryDirectory() as NSString).stringByAppendingPathComponent("instagram.igo")
if imageData?.writeToFile(writePath, atomically: true) == false {
return
} else {
let fileURL = NSURL(fileURLWithPath: writePath)
self.documentController = UIDocumentInteractionController(URL: fileURL)
self.documentController.delegate = self
self.documentController.UTI = "com.instagram.exlusivegram"
self.documentController.annotation = NSDictionary(object: captionString, forKey: "InstagramCaption")
self.documentController.presentOpenInMenuFromRect(self.view.frame, inView: self.view, animated: true)
}
} else {
print(" Instagram isn't installed ")
}
}
}
Now when I try to call screenshot() method it says that
Static member 'screenshot' cannot be used on instance of type 'ShareViewController'
How can I fix this and successfully take screenshot of my imageViews?
