UISearchController with loading indicator

I implemented UISearchController and I'm getting the data from a js callback but when I tape in the searchbar it takes some time to put the data so I wanted to know how to implement a loading indicator into the table view result of UISearchController

Solution

  • When you start searching at that time you can create an activity indicator and add it as the subview of UISearchBar using addSubView method.

      UIActivityIndicatorView *spinner = [[UIActivityIndicatorView alloc] initWithActivityIndicatorStyle:UIActivityIndicatorViewStyleGray];

//set your frame for activity indicator

[searchBar addSubview: spinner];

[spinner startAnimating];

    When you finish the search remove it from the search bar using removeFromSuperView method.
