How to Display an Alert View with Swift

Display an Alert View with Swift

First we'll create a constant of UIAlertController. Since we'll be using an alert, the UIAlertControllerStyle is set to default. It can have other values such as ActionSheet, Alert, and RawValue.

let alertPrompt = UIAlertController(title: "Simple Alert View", message: "Hello, World", preferredStyle: UIAlertControllerStyle.Alert)

Next, we'll be adding a button inside the newly created alertcontroller. We'll set the handler to nil since we don't need any action yet. But you may call a function when a button is click by setting the handler to some function.

Note: The handler function must have a parameter of UIAlertAction type (e.g. func buttonHandler(alertView: UIAlertAction){})

alertPrompt.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Ok", style: UIAlertActionStyle.Default, handler:nil))

And lastly in order to show the alert view, you must present it by the calling the presentViewController method.

presentViewController(alertPrompt, animated: true, completion: nil)

Summary of Code:

Inside an action function, place the following line of codes.

let alertPrompt = UIAlertController(title: "Simple Alert View", message: "Hello, World", preferredStyle: UIAlertControllerStyle.Alert)

alertPrompt.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Ok", style: UIAlertActionStyle.Default, handler:nil))

presentViewController(alertPrompt, animated: true, completion: nil)

or to handle a button click in the alert view, we can have

let alertPrompt = UIAlertController(title: "Simple Alert View", message: "Hello, World", preferredStyle: UIAlertControllerStyle.Alert)

alertPrompt.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Ok", style: UIAlertActionStyle.Default, handler:"btn_clicked"))

presentViewController(alertPrompt, animated: true, completion: nil)

Then we can declare the button handle:

func btn_clicked(alertView: UIAlertAction!){

presentViewController(imagePicker, animated: true, completion: nil)

println("Ok")

}
