Xcode 8 - Swift 3 OS X- Refresh custom View Controller - swift

I am creating an application in Xcode 8 and Swift 3 for use at my place of employment. I am going to give you a brief understanding of what I am doing, and what I am attempting to do. So in my program I load data about the computer, including MAC address and IP Address, which I have working flawlessly. My issue is when I try to refresh the data, it either crashes or does not reload anything.
Now I have read the documentation that specifically says "Do not call viewDidLoad()" but I am not sure how else to reload the data. I have been working on this one little feature for a while, but unfortunately I am still coming up blank and cannot find much more information.
Basically I pull the information and then write them to labels which present the data to the technician. I have attempted to use the refresh function under the view controller, as well as the reload under the first response to no avail. Does anyone have any ideas that I can attempt to reload the data on button click?
Edit 2:
import Cocoa
import Foundation
import NetFS
class ViewController: NSViewController {
// Hostname outlet
#IBOutlet weak var populateHostname: NSTextField!
// IP Address 1 outlet
#IBOutlet weak var populateIPAddr: NSTextField!
#IBOutlet weak var IPAdap1: NSTextField!
// IP Address 2 outlet
#IBOutlet weak var populateIPAddr2: NSTextField!
#IBOutlet weak var IPAdap2: NSTextField!
// MAC Adress 1 outlet
#IBOutlet weak var populateMACAddress: NSTextField!
#IBOutlet weak var MACAdap1: NSTextField!
// MAC Address 2 outlet
#IBOutlet weak var populateMACAddress2: NSTextField!
#IBOutlet weak var MACAdap2: NSTextField!
// OS Version outlet
#IBOutlet weak var osVersion: NSTextField!
// Buttons

}
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
loadData()
}
func reloadData() {
//get adapters - includes IP, Adapter Name, and MAC Address
let myInterfaces = getInterfaces()
//ip address
if (myInterfaces.count != 0) {
populateIPAddr.stringValue = myInterfaces[0].addr
IPAdap1.stringValue = myInterfaces[0].name
if (myInterfaces.count != 1) {
if (myInterfaces[0].addr != myInterfaces[1].addr) {
populateIPAddr2.stringValue = myInterfaces[1].addr
IPAdap2.stringValue = myInterfaces[1].name
}
} else {
populateIPAddr2.stringValue = ""
IPAdap2.stringValue = ""
}
}
//mac address
if (myInterfaces.count != 0) {
populateMACAddress.stringValue = myInterfaces[0].mac
MACAdap1.stringValue = myInterfaces[0].name
if (myInterfaces.count != 1) {
if (myInterfaces[0].mac != myInterfaces[1].mac) {
populateMACAddress2.stringValue = myInterfaces[1].mac
MACAdap2.stringValue = myInterfaces[1].name
}
} else {
populateMACAddress2.stringValue = ""
MACAdap2.stringValue = ""
}
}
}
func loadData() {
//hostname
let currentHost = Host.current().localizedName ?? ""
populateHostname.stringValue = currentHost
//get adapters - includes IP, Adapter Name, and MAC Address
let myInterfaces = getInterfaces()
//ip address
if (myInterfaces.count != 0) {
populateIPAddr.stringValue = myInterfaces[0].addr
IPAdap1.stringValue = myInterfaces[0].name
if (myInterfaces.count != 1) {
if (myInterfaces[0].addr != myInterfaces[1].addr) {
populateIPAddr2.stringValue = myInterfaces[1].addr
IPAdap2.stringValue = myInterfaces[1].name
}
} else {
populateIPAddr2.stringValue = ""
IPAdap2.stringValue = ""
}
}
//mac address
if (myInterfaces.count != 0) {
populateMACAddress.stringValue = myInterfaces[0].mac
MACAdap1.stringValue = myInterfaces[0].name
if (myInterfaces.count != 1) {
if (myInterfaces[0].mac != myInterfaces[1].mac) {
populateMACAddress2.stringValue = myInterfaces[1].mac
MACAdap2.stringValue = myInterfaces[1].name
}
} else {
populateMACAddress2.stringValue = ""
MACAdap2.stringValue = ""
}
}
//OS X Version
let osVers = ProcessInfo.processInfo.operatingSystemVersion
let osMajorVers = String(osVers.majorVersion)
let osMinorVers = String(osVers.minorVersion)
let osPatchVers = String(osVers.patchVersion)
osVersion.stringValue = (osMajorVers + "." + osMinorVers + "." + osPatchVers)
// Edit Users Login Config enabled/disabled
if (NSUserName() == "Administrator" || NSUserName() == "administrator") {
// disable button
editLoginConfigButton.isEnabled = false
}
}
override var representedObject: AnyObject? {
didSet {
// Update the view, if already loaded.
}
}
}
So as I said before (I believe), using it like this does not break the thread, but it also does not refresh the data. Any idea where it is failing?

Closed 1 year ago.
So I'm using firebase Authentication in my ios app, and I want to display the email address, and Username in UIlabels on a viewcontroller. But when i display the value of Auth.auth().email on a UIlabel, the Label would show Optional"email adress".How do i get rid of the Optional and also how to allow the user to have a display name in firebase Authentication?
import Firebase
import FirebaseAuth
class ProfileViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var profiepic: UIImageView!
#IBOutlet weak var UsernameLabel: UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var EmailLabel: UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var league: UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var Achievements: UIButton!
#IBOutlet weak var resetpasswd: UIButton!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
UsernameLabel.layer.borderColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
EmailLabel.layer.borderColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
league.layer.borderColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
Achievements.layer.cornerRadius = 55/2
resetpasswd.layer.cornerRadius = 55/2
resetpasswd.layer.borderColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
displayinfo()
}
func displayinfo() {
let user = Auth.auth().currentUser
if let user = user {
// The user's ID, unique to the Firebase project.
// Do NOT use this value to authenticate with your backend server,
// if you have one. Use getTokenWithCompletion:completion: instead.
let email = user.email
let photoURL = user.photoURL
EmailLabel.text = "Email: \(email)"
// ...
}
}
/*
// MARK: - Navigation
// In a storyboard-based application, you will often want to do a little preparation before navigation
override func prepare(for segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: Any?) {
// Get the new view controller using segue.destination.
// Pass the selected object to the new view controller.
}
*/
}
You need to use if or guard to display string info properly.
Using if:
func displayinfo() {
let user = Auth.auth().currentUser
if let user = user {
if let email = user.email {
EmailLabel.text = "Email: \(email)"
}
if let photoURL = user.photoURL {
...
}
// ...
}
}
Using guard:
func displayinfo() {
guard let user = Auth.auth().currentUser else {
print("No user info found")
return
}
if let email = user.email {
EmailLabel.text = "Email: \(email)"
//EmailLabel.text = "Email: " + email
}
if let photoURL = user.photoURL {
...
}
// ...
}
Let me know if you have any issue in these solutions.
Apart from this, I would rather write UIViewController in this manner which seems to be a more clearer approach.
class ProfileViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var profiepic: UIImageView!
#IBOutlet weak var lblUsername: UILabel! {
didSet {
lblUsername.layer.borderColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
}
}
#IBOutlet weak var lblEmail: UILabel! {
didSet {
lblEmail.layer.borderColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
}
}
#IBOutlet weak var lblLeague: UILabel! {
didSet {
lblLeague.layer.borderColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
}
}
#IBOutlet weak var btnAchievements: UIButton! {
didSet {
btnAchievements.layer.cornerRadius = 55/2
// For button height, instead of 55 here you can use, btnAchievements.bounds.height / 2 or use constrain also to change button height when bound changes
}
}
#IBOutlet weak var btnReset: UIButton! {
didSet {
btnReset.layer.cornerRadius = 55/2
btnReset.layer.borderColor = UIColor.black.cgColor
}
}
private var currentUser: AuthUser? {// Type of Auth.auth().currentUser
didSet {
// Use above code for displayInfo or simply call displayInfo from here
}
}
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
self.currentUser = Auth.auth().currentUser
}
...
}
I hope this would help you designing other UIViewControllers as well.

I am trying to add a UILabel exactly like I already have but keep getting this error

I am trying to add a label to my calculator where it shows the tip amount but I keep getting
Thread 1: Fatal error: Unexpectedly found nil while implicitly unwrapping an Optional value
I just want it to display the tip amount as well. I copied it exact for the other UILabel.
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var PriceTxt: UITextField!
#IBOutlet weak var Tip: UITextField!
#IBOutlet weak var totalFinal: UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var TipAmount: UILabel!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
totalFinal.text = ""
TipAmount.text = ""
}
#IBAction func Calcualte(_ sender: Any) {
if PriceTxt.text! == "" || Tip.text! == ""
{
totalFinal.text = "Input the Numbers"
TipAmount.text = ""
}
else {
let price = Double(PriceTxt.text!)!
let tipPer = Double(Tip.text!)!
let TipMult = price * (tipPer/100)
let TipFinal = Double((round(100*TipMult)/100) + price)
totalFinal.text = "$\(TipFinal)"
TipAmount.text = "$\(TipMult)"
}
}
}
It will show you the problem in your code.. please always try to avoid force cast
class ViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var PriceTxt: UITextField!
#IBOutlet weak var Tip: UITextField!
#IBOutlet weak var totalFinal: UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var TipAmount: UILabel!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
totalFinal.text = ""
TipAmount.text = ""
}
#IBAction func Calcualte(_ sender: Any) {
if let getPrice = PriceTxt.text , let getTip = Tip.text
{
if getPrice.isEmpty || getTip.isEmpty {
totalFinal.text = "Input the Numbers"
TipAmount.text = ""
}
else {
let price = Double(getPrice)!
let tipPer = Double(getTip)!
let TipMult = price * (tipPer/100)
let TipFinal = Double((round(100*TipMult)/100) + price)
totalFinal.text = "$\(TipFinal)"
TipAmount.text = "$\(TipMult)"
}
} else {
print("either PriceTxt or Tip is nil")
}
}
}
Try using ? instead of !
! force unwraps and gives you a fatal error if there is no value (nil). ? only unwraps if a value is present.
Also, why unwrap the text here at all?
Use
PriceTxt.text == "" || Tip.text == "" without the ! or ?.

Disable button in cocoa application OS X

I would like to have the submit button enabled once some fields on a form have been validated. Currently the preview function works great, preview button provides the validation I need. Working on Xcode 7 and swift 2. I would really appreciated if someone can point me in the right direction. Below is the code I currently have:
import Cocoa
#NSApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: NSObject, NSApplicationDelegate {
var projectFlag = false
var descriptionFlag = false
var releaseFlag = false
// Fields
#IBOutlet weak var projectNumberTextField:NSTextField!
#IBOutlet weak var projectDescriptionTextField:NSTextField!
#IBOutlet weak var releaseFolderNameTextField:NSTextField!
#IBOutlet weak var passwordTextField:NSTextField!
// Labels for preview
#IBOutlet weak var label1: NSTextField!
#IBOutlet weak var label2: NSTextField!
#IBOutlet weak var label3: NSTextField!
#IBOutlet weak var label4: NSTextField!
#IBOutlet weak var label5: NSTextField!
// Quit Button :: Quits the application
#IBAction func quitButton(sender: AnyObject) {
NSApplication.sharedApplication().terminate(self)
}
// Preview button behavior
#IBAction func previewButton(sender: AnyObject) {
// Project Number ::
let project = projectNumberTextField.stringValue
label1.stringValue = "\(project)"
if (label1.stringValue == "00-0000") {
label1.stringValue = "Project Number is not valid"
label1.textColor = NSColor.redColor()
projectFlag = false
} else {
label1.textColor = NSColor.blackColor()
projectFlag = true
}
// Project Description :: Name, 2016
let description = projectDescriptionTextField.stringValue
label2.stringValue = "\(description)"
if (label2.stringValue == "Name, 2016") {
label2.stringValue = "Enter a valid project description"
label2.textColor = NSColor.redColor()
descriptionFlag = false
} else {
label2.textColor = NSColor.blackColor()
descriptionFlag = true
}
// Folder Release Name :: RELEASE_NAME
let release = releaseFolderNameTextField.stringValue
label3.stringValue = "\(release)"
if (label3.stringValue == "RELEASE_NAME") {
label3.stringValue = "Enter a valid folder release name"
label3.textColor = NSColor.redColor()
releaseFlag = false
} else {
label3.textColor = NSColor.blackColor()
releaseFlag = true
}
// Password :: If needed
let password = passwordTextField.stringValue
label4.stringValue = "\(password)"
// Preview :: Code format for txt file
let preview = "\(project)|"+"\(description)|"+"\(release)|"+"\(password)/"
label5.stringValue = "\(preview)"
}
// Submit button behavior
#IBAction func submitButton(Sender: AnyObject) {
}
func applicationDidFinishLaunching(aNotification: NSNotification) {
// Insert code here to initialize your application
}
func applicationWillTerminate(aNotification: NSNotification) {
// Insert code here to tear down your application
}
}

In Swift how do I convert int to string and reverse and display result?

The program is suppose to change F TO C and reverse. With the Switch it changes from on to off and on is suppose to be C to f and off is F to c and entering the # underneath in the text field.
When clicking the submit button it takes whats in the text field transfers it to an in preforms the algorithm and then displays it in the textfield.
I believe the conversion is going correctly but will not display the actual result. Or the way its being converted is wrong.
#IBOutlet weak var buttonClicked: UIButton!
#IBOutlet weak var mySwitch: UISwitch!
#IBOutlet weak var myTextField: UITextField!
#IBOutlet weak var User: UITextField!
func stateChanged(switchState: UISwitch) {
if switchState.on {
myTextField.text = "Convert to Celius"
} else {
myTextField.text = "Convert to Farheniet"
}
}
#IBAction func buttonClicked(sender: UIButton) {
if mySwitch.on {
var a:Double? = Double(User.text!)
a = a! * 9.5 + 32
User.text=String(a)
mySwitch.setOn(false, animated:true)
} else {
var a:Double? = Double(User.text!)
a = a! * 9.5 + 32
User.text=String(a)
mySwitch.setOn(true, animated:true)
}
}
I am using an older version of XCode(6.4) so my code will be a little bit different from yours. From what I understand your function buttonClicked should take the argument of AnyObject instend of UIButton. Also you do not call the function stateChanged in your code at all. The following code should help achieve what you trying to do.
#IBOutlet weak var mySwitch: UISwitch!
#IBOutlet weak var myTextField: UITextField!
#IBOutlet weak var User: UITextField!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
// sets the textfield to the intended conversion on load.
if mySwitch.on {
myTextField.text = "Convert to Celius"
}
else {
myTextField.text = "Convert to Farheniet"
}
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
// changes the myTextFiled text to the intended conversion when the switch is manually switched on or off
#IBAction func switched(sender: AnyObject) {
if mySwitch.on {
myTextField.text = "Convert to Celsius"
}
else {
myTextField.text = "Convert to Fahrenheit"
}
}
// changes the myTextField text to intended reverse conversion after the buttonClicked func is completed.
func stateChanged(switchState: UISwitch) {
if switchState.on {
myTextField.text = "Convert to Celsius"
}
else {
myTextField.text = "Convert to Fahrenheit"
}
}
// do the intended conversion(old version of XCode 6.4)
#IBAction func buttonClicked(sender: AnyObject) {
if mySwitch.on {
var a = (User.text! as NSString).doubleValue
a = (a-32)*(5/9)
User.text="\(a)"
mySwitch.setOn(false, animated:true)
stateChanged(mySwitch)
}
else {
var a = (User.text! as NSString).doubleValue
a = a * (9/5) + 32
User.text="\(a)"
mySwitch.setOn(true, animated:true)
stateChanged(mySwitch)
}
}
