UISearch is not Working in JSON api UITable View

Question

All

I am trying to develop an app. Now i need to search the video list using UISearch View.

here is my code. I can see the search bar but it's not working.

import UIKit import GoogleMobileAds

class ViewController: UIViewController, UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource, GADInterstitialDelegate, UIAlertViewDelegate, UISearchBarDelegate {

@IBOutlet weak var tblVideos: UITableView!

@IBOutlet weak var banner3: GADBannerView!


var interstitial: GADInterstitial!


@IBOutlet weak var viewWait: UIView!



var channelsDataArray: Array<Dictionary<String, Any>> = []

var apikey = ""

var selectedVideoIndex: Int!


override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.

    if connectedToNetwork() == true {

        tblVideos.delegate = self
        tblVideos.dataSource = self

        print("Google Mobile Ads SDK version: " + GADRequest.sdkVersion())
        banner3.adUnitID = ""
        banner3.rootViewController = self
        banner3.load(GADRequest())

        getChannelDetails(false)
        loadInterstitial()
        searchBar()

    }

    else {
        let controller = UIAlertController(title: "No Internet Detected", message: "This app requires an Internet connection", preferredStyle: .alert)
        let ok = UIAlertAction(title: "OK", style: .default, handler: nil)
        let cancel = UIAlertAction(title: "Cancel", style: .cancel, handler: nil)

        controller.addAction(ok)
        controller.addAction(cancel)

        present(controller, animated: true, completion: nil)
    }
}

override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
    super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
    // Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}

func searchBar() {
    let searchBar = UISearchBar(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: self.view.frame.width, height: 50))
    searchBar.delegate = self
    searchBar.showsScopeBar = true
    searchBar.tintColor = UIColor.lightGray
    self.tblVideos.tableHeaderView = searchBar

}


func searchBar(_ searchBar: UISearchBar, textDidChange searchText: String) {

    if searchText == "" {
        //do something
        getChannelDetails(false)
    }
    else {

            channelsDataArray = channelsDataArray.filter({($0["title"] as! String).contains(searchText)})

    }

}

    if let playerViewController = segue.destination as? PlayerViewController {
        playerViewController.videoID = channelsDataArray[selectedVideoIndex]["videoId"] as! String
    }
}

//inter

fileprivate func loadInterstitial() {

    interstitial!.delegate = self

    // Request test ads on devices you specify. Your test device ID is printed to the console when
    // an ad request is made.
    interstitial!.load(GADRequest())
}


// MARK: GADInterstitialDelegate implementation

func interstitialDidFailToReceiveAdWithError (
    _ interstitial: GADInterstitial,
    error: GADRequestError) {
    print("interstitialDidFailToReceiveAdWithError: %@" + error.localizedDescription)
}

func interstitialDidDismissScreen (_ interstitial: GADInterstitial) {
    print("interstitialDidDismissScreen")

}

}

I just need to now filter my list as a Titile. Can please any help me to solved it?

Answer 1

You need declare a var for filteredArray to keep your original array with all your elements

something like this

var filteredChannelsDataArray : Array<Dictionary<String, Any>> = []

You also need add this line after self.channelsDataArray.append(desiredValues) in your getChannelDetails method

self.filteredChannelsDataArray = channelsDataArray

Try with this

Replace this

    func searchBar(_ searchBar: UISearchBar, textDidChange searchText: String) {

    if searchText == "" {
        //do something
        getChannelDetails(false)
    }
    else {

         channelsDataArray = channelsDataArray.filter({ (alldata) -> Bool in

        return true

    })

    }

}

By this

    func searchBar(_ searchBar: UISearchBar, textDidChange searchText: String) {

    if searchText == "" {
        //do something
        getChannelDetails(false)
        self.filteredChannelsDataArray = channelsDataArray
        self.tableView.reloadData()
    }
    else {

            self.filteredChannelsDataArray = channelsDataArray.filter({($0["title"] as! String).contains(searchText)})
           self.tableView.reloadData()
    }

}

You also need make few changes in your UITableViewDataSource methods

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
    return self.filteredChannelsDataArray.count
}

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
    var cell: UITableViewCell!


    cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "idCellChannel", for: indexPath)

    let channelTitleLabel = cell.viewWithTag(10) as! UILabel

    let thumbnailImageView = cell.viewWithTag(12) as! UIImageView

    let channelDetails = self.filteredChannelsDataArray[indexPath.row]
    channelTitleLabel.text = channelDetails["title"] as? String

    thumbnailImageView.image = UIImage(data: try! Data(contentsOf: URL(string: (channelDetails["url"] as? String)!)!))


    return cell
}

Answer 2

you can try with this code : self.tblVideos.reloadData()

func searchBar(_ searchBar: UISearchBar, textDidChange searchText: String) {
     if searchText == "" {
         //do something
         getChannelDetails(false)
     }
     else {

        channelsDataArray = channelsDataArray.filter({($0["title"] as! String).contains(searchText)})
        self.tblVideos.reloadData()
     }
}
