UITableview get index of each section - swift

Question

I'm looking to get the index of each section header to be able to delete the contents within the section. But I'm unable to get the index [Below is a screenshot of my UITableview][1]
var bookings = [[String]]()
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, viewForHeaderInSection section: Int) -> UIView? {
let headerView = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: tableView.frame.width, height: 100))
headerView.backgroundColor = UIColor.orange
let headerLabel = UILabel(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: tableView.bounds.size.width, height: 30))
headerLabel.textColor = UIColor.black
headerLabel.text = "Booking"
headerLabel.textAlignment = .center
headerView.addSubview(headerLabel)
let deleteButton: UIButton = UIButton(frame: CGRect(x:headerView.frame.size.width - 100, y:0, width:100, height:30))
deleteButton.setTitle("Delete", for: .normal)
deleteButton.addTarget(self, action: #selector(buttonTapped), for: .touchUpInside)
headerView.addSubview(deleteButton)
return headerView
}
func numberOfSections(in tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
if bookings.count == 0 {
let alert = UIAlertController(title: "Warning", message: "You have no bookings" , preferredStyle: .alert)
alert.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Close", style: .default, handler: nil))
present(alert, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
return bookings.count
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
let items = bookings[section]
return items.count
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "cell")!
let items = bookings[indexPath.section]
cell.textLabel?.text = items[indexPath.row]
return cell
}

Answer 1

An easy way is to use the section number as tag of the button
deleteButton.addTarget(self, action: #selector(buttonTapped), for: .touchUpInside)
deleteButton.tag = section
In the action get the section index and delete the section
#objc func buttonTapped(_ sender : UIButton) {
let section = sender.tag
bookings.remove(at: section)
tableView.deleteSections([section], with: .fade)
}

You can use the following method to get the title of the section
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
if indexPath.section == 0 {
let sec = indexPath.section
let headrer = activityTableView.tableHeaderView?.largeContentTitle
}
}
Or
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, titleForHeaderInSection section: Int) -> String? {
if section == Your section{
// Your code here
}
}

If I understand you correctly, you wish to access the index of a specific section in your buttonTapped method?
One solution is to just subclass UIButton to add a section property:
class SectionDeleteButton : UIButton {
var section: Int = 0
}
You can then use this button, instead of the regular UIButton, in your header view and set the section property to the section your header belongs to. And then access this property in buttonTapped, via the sender parameter of that method.
