Currently I have a map view set up with 5 hardcoded locations which are shown on the map with pins. When the user clicks on these pins then a callout is show to the user which has details of the location. Within these callouts I am trying to include a button which the user can press and then takes them to another view controller.
Below is the current code I have, however when I tap on the pins no button is shown, does anyone have any idea what I am missing or what I need to do in order to implement the button?
Here is my code for the locations and the current user location.
import UIKit
import MapKit
import CoreLocation
import SceneKit
class SecondViewController: UIViewController, MKMapViewDelegate, CLLocationManagerDelegate
{
@IBOutlet weak var mapView: MKMapView!
//Location manager property
let locationManager = CLLocationManager()
override func viewDidLoad()
{
super.viewDidLoad()
mapView.delegate = self
//Find the current location as soon as the view is loaded
self.locationManager.delegate = self
//Setting the accuracy
self.locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyBest
//So only location services are used within the app
self.locationManager.requestWhenInUseAuthorization()
//Start up the location manager and find current location
self.locationManager.startUpdatingLocation()
//Use blue pin to show the location to the user
self.mapView.showsUserLocation = true
//Array of dictionaries to store the locations
let locationData = [
//Radio City Tower
["name": "Radio City Tower",
"latitude": 53.4071551,
"longitude": -2.980798600000071],
//Metropolitian Cathedral
["name": "Metropolitian Catherdral",
"latitude": 53.40494649999999,
"longitude": -2.9684022999999797],
//Walker Art Gallery
["name": "Walker Art Gallery",
"latitude": 53.410068,
"longitude": -2.979666],
//Liver Buildings
["name": "Liver Buildings",
"latitude": 53.405808,
"longitude": -2.995859],
//St George's Hall
["name": "St George's Hall",
"latitude": 53.409277,
"longitude": -2.979946]
]
//Object for each dictionary in the locations array
var annotations = [MKPointAnnotation]()
//Populating the map with the location pins
for Dictionary in locationData {
let latitude = CLLocationDegrees(Dictionary["latitude"] as! Double)
let longitude = CLLocationDegrees(Dictionary["longitude"] as! Double)
let coordinate = CLLocationCoordinate2D(latitude: latitude, longitude: longitude)
let name = Dictionary["name"] as! String
let annotation = MKPointAnnotation()
//Apply to annotation
annotation.coordinate = coordinate
annotation.title = "\(name)"
annotations.append(annotation)
}
mapView.addAnnotations(annotations)
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning()
{
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
// MARK: - Location Delegate Methods
func locationManager(manager: CLLocationManager, didUpdateLocations locations: [CLLocation])
{
//Gets the most current location
let location = locations.last
//gets the center of the last location
let center = CLLocationCoordinate2D(latitude: location!.coordinate.latitude, longitude: location!.coordinate.longitude)
//Creatng a region - Map will zoom to this
let region = MKCoordinateRegion(center: center, span: MKCoordinateSpan(latitudeDelta: Double(0.004), longitudeDelta: Double(0.004)))
//Apply the map view to the region
self.mapView.setRegion(region, animated: true)
//Stop updating the location
self.locationManager.stopUpdatingLocation()
let currentLocation = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(location!.coordinate.latitude, location!.coordinate.longitude)
//Adding an annotation to current user location
var pinAnnotation = MKPointAnnotation()
//Set pin coordinate to the users current location
pinAnnotation.coordinate = currentLocation
//Annotation title
pinAnnotation.title = "Current Location"
//Annotation subtitle
pinAnnotation.subtitle = "You are here!"
//Add the pin to the mapView
mapView.addAnnotation(pinAnnotation)
}
And here is the code for the button implementation within the callout(does not work)
func MapView(mapview: MKMapView!, annotationView view: MKAnnotationView!, calloutAccessoryTapped control: UIControl!) {
if control == view.rightCalloutAccessoryView {
print(view.annotation?.title)
print(view.annotation?.subtitle)
//Perform segue to navigate to viewcontroller
}
}
func MapView(mapView: MKMapView!, viewForAnnotation annotation: MKAnnotation!) -> MKAnnotationView! {
print("viewForAnnotation")
if(annotation is MKUserLocation) {
return nil
}
let reuseID = "pin"
var pinView = mapView.dequeueReusableAnnotationViewWithIdentifier(reuseID) as? MKPinAnnotationView
if(pinView == nil) {
pinView = MKPinAnnotationView(annotation: annotation, reuseIdentifier: reuseID)
pinView!.canShowCallout = true
pinView!.animatesDrop = true
}
var button = UIButton(type: .DetailDisclosure) as UIButton
pinView?.rightCalloutAccessoryView = button
return pinView
}
I am probably missing something really simple but I am not sure what. I am very new to iOS/Swift development and also MapKit so please bear with me. I also understand that this question has been asked multiple times however, I am still unable to solve this. Any help is appreciated, Thank you.
