I've been trying to implement a photo selection feature in a new app. My current approach is to use a PHPickerViewController embedded in a UIViewControllerRepresentable to display in a swiftUI view.
This is my makeUIViewController function.
func makeUIViewController(context: Context) -> PHPickerViewController {
var configuration = PHPickerConfiguration()
configuration.filter = filter
configuration.selectionLimit = limit
let controller = PHPickerViewController(configuration: configuration)
controller.delegate = context.coordinator
return controller
}
It is inside a struct named PhotoPicker :
struct PhotoPicker: UIViewControllerRepresentable {
What I want to hide is this part :
Yes, all of that.
Let me explain myself, the PickerView is always presented, it is not a pop-up, so there is no need for a cancel button. As you can see there is no done button either. That's because only one image needs to be selected so what happens is when the user taps on an image, the event that a new image was selected is called immediately. Removing the need for user confirmation. Then concerning the search bar, I don't really want it, I just want the user to select a photo and finally the little switch between photos and albums isn't really necessary in my case either.
I've tried a lot of different ways, including trying to set options for the controller when it is created in makeUIViewController. These options were for example :
controller.navigationController?.setToolbarHidden(true, animated: false)
controller.navigationController?.setNavigationBarHidden(true, animated: false)
And I also tried invoking view modifier in my SwiftUI body :
PhotoPicker(filter: .images, limit: 1) { (results) in
}
.navigationBarTitle("")
.navigationBarHidden(true)
.statusBar(hidden: true)
.navigationBarBackButtonHidden(true)
But again, none of them seems to work. So that's why I'm asking here, because it seems I tried everything and nothing is working...
