I have a signup form and I am using this AutocompleteTextfield. But when I click on 2nd or 3rd Item, onSelect is not called, it is only called for 1st Item click.

I am guessing, I am seeing this issue because behind 2nd and 3rd item, I have my own fields.

Changed this line as once the parent viewController was dismissed a nil pointer error was being thrown after returning to the previous viewController.

While the fix works i'm not sure as to what is the underlying issue.

open override func willMove(toSuperview newSuperview: UIView?) {
super.willMove(toSuperview: newSuperview)
commonInit()
//Changed this
if (newSuperview != nil){
setupAutocompleteTable(newSuperview!)
}
}

The function setupAutocompleteTable is not calculating the right place.
I pass a subview that is into a subview, and the frame is calculated improperly, I had to overwrite the function in order to fix this issue.

Is there an update to that fix? If not when I finish I will submit my solution.

Hi,

I am wondering if or how you can add Google's location bias parameter to this?

Thanks

Hi,

I integrated your project and I can't seem to get it to work.
My tableview doesn't show up. I created only a textfield in my storyboard
and i'm getting response from my google places api but the tableview just doesn't show up.
You have any idea if you have to do something special that isn't included in your project to get it to work?

Thanks in advance!

I configured the Plugin as u showed in the ViewController and set this autocompleteTextfield.maximumAutoCompleteCount = 20 but always get just the first 3 results of my response array shown. Any Idea?

I got this error:

Is this my configuration bad or?

Hello!

1. subclass autocompletetextfield in uiview class
2. use no nib, just instantiate and use from the frame
3. voila table unresponsive and cant select values; although can type and return result<STILL TABLE UNRESPONSive; meaning cant click or do anything.. >

any help?

didSelectRowAtIndexPath is never called.
As per the previous issue #19 i check my code it doesnt contain this method also
public override func resignFirstResponder() -> Bool {
self.autoCompleteTableView?.hidden = true

return super.resignFirstResponder()

}

can you please let me know the issue

Hello

the autocomplete is in a small container so... when i select a row it doesn't work

If i have more Height of the container it's works (but i want a small container:)

i try

view.bringSubviewToFront(tableView)
don't work

someone have an idea ?

regards

When I put the textfield in the navigationbar and type something the suggestions table appear, but when I try to tap on any cell the table doesn't recognize the tap
how to solve this ??

The TableView never appears. I have debugged showing events firing correctly, but I never see any results appear after calling .autoCompleteStrings. Has anyone had any success after upgrading to xCode 8?

when i put the text view inside a stackview, the autoCompleteTableView stopped responding to scrolls and selections even though it showed up on the screen. loks like it could not get the focus.

With default configurations onSelect never gets called when selecting a dropdown element.

So I wanted to use AutocompleteTextfieldSwift in my project, but I use Autolayout in my Main.storyboard.

I wanted to know how the TableView for results can be below the textfield. Please see the screenshot attached (I set autoCompleteTableHeight to 200.0 in this exemple)

Thanks

private func handleTextFieldInterfaces(){
    location.onTextChange = {[weak self] text in
        if !text.isEmpty{
            if let dataTask = self?.dataTask {
                dataTask.cancel()
            }
            self?.fetchAutocompletePlaces(text)
        }
    }

    location.onSelect = {[weak self] text, indexpath in
        Location.geocodeAddressString(text, completion: { (placemark, error) -> Void in
            if let coordinate = placemark?.location?.coordinate {
                self?.addAnnotation(coordinate, address: text)
                self?.mapkit.setCenterCoordinate(coordinate,  animated: true)
            }
        })
    }
}

i facing problem for on textchange

I am using swift 3.2, predictions are giving Countries and cities name instead of a proper address. How can I get the only complete address in predictions??

Has anyone already changed the code in ViewController to NSURLSession?

if no match found i want to show "no records found" , how can i achieve this..
Please help.. @mnbayan

i've had a gesture recognizer that when tapped anywhere on screen it removed the keyboard and stopped the editing, now it doesn't work with this library, if used i can't select the tableview autocomplete suggestions, now i'm calling the 'resignFirstResponder' when 'return' is clicked, is there a better solution? i really liked how the gesture recognizer worked, is there any workaround to make it work?

I'm trying to use properties such as autoCompleteStrings and onTextChange with my AutoCompleteTextField, but every time the app runs, it crashes and gives me an EXC_BAD_ACCESS error code. I can't figure out why. The app runs perfectly if I don't set any properties. Any ideas?

Not sure if it's the same problem #2 has, but I thought I'll write this down in case you want to take a look or if somebody else runs into this.
I'm manually adding the view, so I'm using the initWithFrame method which then internally calls initialize (and setupTableView). The problem is that inside setupTableView you're adding the table view to the field's superview. But I'm obviously adding the field to my super view after the init call. Probably when using Storyboards the superview is already ready at that point.

Thanks anyway for your work, it's looking great in my project :)

when ever keyboard re-appear textfield height is increased

is there an inbuilt function in the autocomplete class to dismiss the keyboard?

I start typing and the tableview pops up like expected but it's blank. here are the func's I'm using
swift 3
xcode 8
`

 func configureTextFields(){
    employeeNameTextField.autoCompleteTextColor = UIColor.black
    employeeNameTextField.autoCompleteTextFont = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 14.0)
    employeeNameTextField.autoCompleteCellHeight = 35.0
    employeeNameTextField.maximumAutoCompleteCount = 20
    employeeNameTextField.hidesWhenSelected = true
    employeeNameTextField.hidesWhenEmpty = true
    employeeNameTextField.enableAttributedText = true
    var attributes = [String:AnyObject]()
    attributes[NSForegroundColorAttributeName] = UIColor.black
    attributes[NSFontAttributeName] = UIFont(name: "HelveticaNeue-Bold", size: 12.0)
    employeeNameTextField.autoCompleteAttributes = attributes
}

func handleTextFieldInterfaces(){
    employeeNameTextField.onTextChange = {[weak self] text in
        if !text.isEmpty{
            self?.employeeNameTextField.autoCompleteStrings = ["jay", "jason", "josh", "john", "jill", "jimmy", "jim"]
        }
    }
    
    employeeNameTextField.onSelect = {[weak self] text, indexpath in
        print(text)
    }

}`

any thoughts?

When I put the AutoCompleteTextField in UINavigationBar, then the suggested tableview is not clickable.

Hi, At the moment, a keypress needs to happen in order for the uitextfield to send a request to fetch and display the autocomplete data, but I'm just looking to see if there's a way to show the autocomplete table with the uitextfield text value pre-defined programmatically. It will be great if you could shed me some light on this. Thanks.

Great framework, thank you so much for your contribution :)

When using .onTextChange I receive an error on this line:
{[weak self] text in

The error is:
Invalid conversion from throwing function of type '(_) throws -> ()' to non-throwing function type '(String) -> ()'

For the life of me I can't figure out how to get rid of this.

Greate component. I have a small problem.

Lets say I have 3 textfields I'm populating with autoCompleteStrings = [String]. And on textchange everything works as it should.

But I also have 2 textFields I would like the tableview to function as a "picker" instead. So when the specific textField becomeFirstResponder i would like to populate the tableView with strings and the one on [String][0] should be pre-filled in the textField.

Edit: I can't seem to hide one textFields tableView when another textField becomeFirstResponer

Does it make sense?

Pre-Salamat, ;)

when there are no matching records found, how can i customize to show no records found rather than hiding table view, please help i am stuck badly..

Hi there!
What a great add on to the Xcode Swift Community!

I am a beginner programmer, so I really don't know why things do the things they do. Especially in Swift, since I am just starting to learn it.

Anyways, I just wanted to let you know, I don't know if this is a bug or not, but I ran into an issue using your plugin.

I embedded a navigation controller to eventually reach the view that implements your autocomplete plugin, and when i hit "back" it brings up a fatal error, saying that it unexpectedly found nil while unwrapping an optional value.

The line of code where it crashes is line 77 for me: setupAutocompleteTable(newSuperview!)
inside the public override func willMoveToSuperview(newSuperview: UIView?)

anyways, not sure if you wanted to try that out and take a look at it, it could also be just me that I may have added some things and didn't realize.

when i put the text view inside a stackview, the autoCompleteTableView stopped responding to scrolls and selections even though it showed up on the screen. loks like it could not get the focus.

When i use AutoCompleteTextField inside in a uiscrollview the didSelectRowAtIndexPath that calls onSelect gets fired after long press..

So i tried this........................... [(http://stackoverflow.com/questions/38217789/didselectrowatindexpath-called-after-long-press...............................)] also which seems to create the same problem.

I am getting error:

Unknown class AutoCompleteTextField in Interface Builder file.

I don't know why this is happening, but this line is making this problem:

destinationAddressLabel.onTextChange = {[weak self] text in
...

I added AutocompleteTextfield.swift to Compile Sources.
Any solution?

I am using Swift 3, and I have tableview class, inside that, I have textfield class. I tried to add this textfield, but getting crashed in following line

        setupAutocompleteTable(superview!)

and showing superview as nil

can you help me to solve this issue.

Update to Latest Syntax please....

When the autocomplete tableView is showing with its autocomplete-suggestions and you rotate to landscape, the tableView won't redraw which leads to separator lines that only fill half of the screen width instead of the new screen width from landscape screen.

I wrote a quick workaround, exposing redrawTable in AutoCompleteTextField.swift:

func redrawTable() {

        if let autoCompleteTableView = autoCompleteTableView,

           let autoCompleteTableHeight = autoCompleteTableHeight  {

            var newFrame = autoCompleteTableView.frame

            newFrame.size.height = autoCompleteTableHeight

            let screenSize = UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds.size

            newFrame.size.width = screenSize.width - (self.frame.origin.x * 2)

            autoCompleteTableView.frame = newFrame

        }
}

Then in your ViewController you can do sth like this:

override func viewWillTransitionToSize(size: CGSize, withTransitionCoordinator coordinator: UIViewControllerTransitionCoordinator) {

    super.viewWillTransitionToSize(size, withTransitionCoordinator: coordinator)

    coordinator.animateAlongsideTransition(nil, completion: { _ in

        self.autoCompleteTextField.redrawTable()

    })
}

I can set height with autoCompleteCellHeight,
but i can't set width.
It's seem that there is no autoCompleteCellWidth?

Instead of making a table for the suggestions, how would I make them just appear in the text view as you type.

Hey, I tried using your code for my application. Unfortunately when I click on button and the viewcontroller appears modally with navigation controller embedded in, it show the following error in AutocompleteTextfield.

fatal error: unexpectedly found nil while unwrapping an Optional value

The error occurs at following function:

public override func awakeFromNib() {
super.awakeFromNib()
commonInit()
setupAutocompleteTable(superview!)

Please update for Swift 2.0 support <3

this project working with the apple native map right?

I have a table view where each row contains an AutoCompleteTextField. The table view does not show up. I have a feeling it is showing up under the parent table view. Has anybody else run into this?

I have integrated all properties of AutocompleteTextfieldSwift, and dropdown is working fine. But i can't scroll or select any row of tableview(dropdown)

I've implemented all that is required from this great add on, but for some reason, though the "autoCompleteStrings" appear in the table view for the text field, it doesn't actually autocomplete when I begin typing. is there a problem with my handleTextFieldInterfaces?

`private func handleTextFieldInterfaces()
{
self.chemicalAuto.onTextChange = {[weak self] text in

        print("Change")
        var keys = Array(DataSource.sharedManager.chemicalTable.keys)
        self!.chemicalAuto.autoCompleteStrings = keys
}

    self.chemicalAuto.onSelect =
    {
        [weak self] text, indexpath in

        print("select")
        var keys = Array(DataSource.sharedManager.chemicalTable.keys)
        self!.chemicalAuto.autoCompleteStrings = keys
    }
}`
