I know there are several other ways to do this; I don't want to import anything that I don't need to. If someone can help me with his code, that would be great.
Currently, it is only saving the original image without the watermark image.
extension UIImage {
class func imageWithWatermark(image1: UIImageView, image2: UIImageView) -> UIImage {
UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(image1.bounds.size, false, 0.0)
image2.layer.renderInContext(UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()!)
image1.layer.renderInContext(UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()!)
let img = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()
UIGraphicsEndImageContext()
return img
}
}
func addWatermark() {
let newImage = UIImage.imageWithWatermark(imageView, image2: watermarkImageView)
UIImageWriteToSavedPhotosAlbum(newImage, nil, nil, nil)
}
EDIT: I've got the watermark appearing on the saved images.
I had to switch the order of the layers:
image1.layer.renderInContext(UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()!)
image2.layer.renderInContext(UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()!)
HOWEVER, it is not appearing in the correct place.It seems to always appear in the center of the image.
If you grab the UIImageViews' images you could use the following concept:
if let img = UIImage(named: "image.png"), img2 = UIImage(named: "watermark.png") {
let rect = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: img.size.width, height: img.size.height)
UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(img.size, true, 0)
let context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()
CGContextSetFillColorWithColor(context, UIColor.whiteColor().CGColor)
CGContextFillRect(context, rect)
img.drawInRect(rect, blendMode: .Normal, alpha: 1)
img2.drawInRect(CGRectMake(x,y,width,height), blendMode: .Normal, alpha: 1)
let result = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()
UIGraphicsEndImageContext()
UIImageWriteToSavedPhotosAlbum(result, nil, nil, nil)
}
