I've made a URL scheme in the Info.plist
to call my app, but the URL also parses a string of data which I need to read.
After looking around for a little while I've found - http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=2301787&seqNum=2
with the following code
var scheme: String!
var path: String!
var query: String!
func application(app: UIApplication, openURL url: NSURL, options: [String: AnyObject]) -> Bool {
scheme = url.scheme
path = url.path
query = url.query
return true
}
supposedly the function is called whenever I call the app through a URL, the function however is never called, and I can't imagine that I would have to put the function in the viewDidLoad
, if I did put it in the viewDidLoad
it would be called everytime the app started.
Am I wrong im presuming that - the function doesn't need to be called in the viewDidLoad
or is there a better way to get data from a URL scheme using the Info.plist to create the scheme
var scheme: String!
var path: String!
var query: String!
func application(app: UIApplication, openURL url: NSURL, options: [String: AnyObject]) -> Bool {
scheme = url.scheme
path = url.path
query = url.query
return true
}
need to be in AppDelegate.Swift you can then access it in the viewcontroller by doing -
var appDelegate = UIApplication.sharedApplication().delegate as! AppDelegate;
and you can then call a variable by doing -
var something = pathScheme.appDelegate;
