From Swift to Objective-C? - swift

Question

I'm trying to implement deep linking in my iOS app (which I 'made' in Cocos Creator), and I want to implement this functionality
func application(_ application: UIApplication,
open url: URL,
options: [UIApplicationOpenURLOptionsKey : Any] = [:] ) -> Bool {
// Determine who sent the URL.
let sendingAppID = options[.sourceApplication]
print("source application = \(sendingAppID ?? "Unknown")")
// Process the URL.
guard let components = NSURLComponents(url: url, resolvingAgainstBaseURL: true),
let albumPath = components.path,
let params = components.queryItems else {
print("Invalid URL or album path missing")
return false
}
if let photoIndex = params.first(where: { $0.name == "index" })?.value {
print("albumPath = \(albumPath)")
print("photoIndex = \(photoIndex)")
return true
} else {
print("Photo index missing")
return false
}
}
... which is Swift code (?) and from here

... which is an Objective-C file?
Any ideas on how to achieve that would be fantastic! Thank you!

Answer 1

If I understood you right, I believe your question is to convert the above Swift function into Objective C
You can give this a go and see if it helps:
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)app
openURL:(NSURL *)url
options:(NSDictionary<UIApplicationOpenURLOptionsKey,id> *)options {
id sendingAppID
= [options objectForKey: UIApplicationOpenURLOptionsSourceApplicationKey];
if (sendingAppID) {
NSLog(#"source application = %#", sendingAppID);
}
NSURLComponents *components
= [[NSURLComponents alloc] initWithURL: url resolvingAgainstBaseURL: YES];
NSString *albumPath = components.path;
NSArray *params = components.queryItems;
if (!components && !albumPath && !params) {
NSLog(#"Invalid URL or album path missing");
return NO;
}
NSPredicate *predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat: #"name = index"];
NSArray *filteredArray = [params filteredArrayUsingPredicate: predicate];
if ([filteredArray firstObject]) {
NSURLQueryItem *queryItem = [filteredArray firstObject];
NSString *photoIndex = queryItem.value;
NSLog(#"albumPath = %#", albumPath);
NSLog(#"photoIndex = %#", photoIndex);
return YES;
}
NSLog(#"Photo index missing");
return NO;
}
The bit I am not too sure about is the predicate bit which is supposed to replace the filter in Swift.
Let me know if this worked or not.
Update based on Willeke's recommendation
As suggested by Willeke in the comments, using indexOfObjectPassingTest: is better than using the predicate.
I believe this is how you would update the code
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)app
openURL:(NSURL *)url
options:(NSDictionary<UIApplicationOpenURLOptionsKey,id> *)options {
id sendingAppID
= [options objectForKey: UIApplicationOpenURLOptionsSourceApplicationKey];
if (sendingAppID) {
NSLog(#"source application = %#", sendingAppID);
}
NSURLComponents *components
= [[NSURLComponents alloc] initWithURL: url resolvingAgainstBaseURL: YES];
NSString *albumPath = components.path;
NSArray *params = components.queryItems;
if (!components && !albumPath && !params) {
NSLog(#"Invalid URL or album path missing");
return NO;
}
NSUInteger photoIndex = [params indexOfObjectPassingTest:^BOOL(id _Nonnull obj, NSUInteger idx, BOOL * _Nonnull stop) {
NSURLQueryItem *queryItem = (NSURLQueryItem*) obj;
return [queryItem.name isEqual: #"index"];
}];
if (photoIndex != NSNotFound) {
NSURLQueryItem *queryItem = [params objectAtIndex: photoIndex];
NSString *photoIndex = queryItem.value;
NSLog(#"albumPath = %#", albumPath);
NSLog(#"photoIndex = %#", photoIndex);
return YES;
}
NSLog(#"Photo index missing");
return NO;
}
