How to get city , state and Country name by Pincode in Swift iOS?

Question

I have Five textFields and I want to autofill Area,City ,State and Country when I enter the pin code number.

 import UIKit
 import CoreLocation

class CreateGroupView: UIViewController,UITextFieldDelegate,CLLocationManagerDelegate
{
   //View Did Load
  override func viewDidLoad() {
      super.viewDidLoad()

    let location: String = "305621"//"yourPINCode"
    let geocoder: CLGeocoder = CLGeocoder()
    geocoder.geocodeAddressString(location,completionHandler: {(placemarks: [CLPlacemark]?, error: NSError?) -> Void in
        if ((placemarks?.count)! > 0) {
            let placemark: CLPlacemark = (placemarks?[0])!
            let country : String = placemark.country!
            let state: String = placemark.administrativeArea!
            print(country)
            print(state)
        }
    } as! CLGeocodeCompletionHandler)
  }
}

How can I do that ? Thanks

you can use CLGeocoder to get detail of address from PIN code, here is sample code.

   let location: String = "yourpincode"
let geocoder: CLGeocoder = CLGeocoder()
geocoder.geocodeAddressString(location, completionHandler: {(placemarks: [CLPlacemark]?, error: Error?) -> Void in
    if ((placemarks?.count)! > 0) {
        let placemark: CLPlacemark = (placemarks?[0])!
        let country : String = placemark.country!
        let state: String = placemark.administrativeArea!
        print(state);
    }
} as! CLGeocodeCompletionHandler)

Actually I am totally new in that. So which frameworks and what and all thing are required for this? Thanks – Kishor Pahalwani Dec 01 '16 at 08:16
@kishor0011, you need to Import CoreLocation framework. Nothing else, it will work. – PlusInfosys Dec 01 '16 at 08:28
Ok let me try . Thanks – Kishor Pahalwani Dec 01 '16 at 08:29
Hey I am getting error :- Use of undeclared type 'MKPlacemark' – Kishor Pahalwani Dec 01 '16 at 09:30
exception is coming. – Kishor Pahalwani Dec 01 '16 at 09:40
Anything missed like delegate or? – Kishor Pahalwani Dec 01 '16 at 09:41
no, completion handler is already there..what pincode you are using for testing ? What is exception detail? – PlusInfosys Dec 01 '16 at 09:44
Actually if i am not using completion handler then Xcode showing error. – Kishor Pahalwani Dec 01 '16 at 09:45

fatal error: unexpectedly found nil while unwrapping an Optional value for city. – Kishor Pahalwani Dec 01 '16 at 10:15
let inlandWaterr : String = placemark.inlandWater! let SubLocalit : String = (placemark.subLocality)! print(SubLocalit) print(inlandWaterr) – Kishor Pahalwani Dec 01 '16 at 10:20
