Below is my code that retrieves images from Parse server class and load it in a tableview. When I press GetAlbum UIbutton to show the data I have to press it twice to successfully have data displayed in the tableview and I can not know what's the reason. please help ( PS: I am new to swift)
var Saveddata: [UIImage] = []
@IBAction func getAlbum(_ sender: AnyObject) {
if (self.textEntercode.text == "")
{
let alert = UIAlertController(title: "No Entered value", message: "Please enter value", preferredStyle: .alert)
alert.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "OK", style: UIAlertActionStyle.cancel, handler: nil));
//event handler with closure
present(alert, animated: true, completion: nil);
}
else {
//-------------Get Data from Parse Server-------------------
var photo = textEntercode.text
let query = PFQuery(className: "Photostable10")
query.whereKey("photo", equalTo: photo)
//query.whereKey("Score", greaterThan: 1000)
query.findObjectsInBackground(block: { (objects : [PFObject]?, error: Error?) -> Void in
if error == nil {
for object in objects! {
if let userPicture = object.value(forKey: "photo") {
let userPicture = object.value(forKey: "photo")! as! PFFile
userPicture.getDataInBackground({ (imageData: Data?, error: Error?) -> Void in
let image = UIImage(data: imageData!)
if image != nil {
self.Saveddata.append(image!)
}
})
}
}
}
})
self.tableview.reloadData()
} //else close
}
func numberOfSections(in tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
return 1
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "PostCell")!
cell.textLabel!.text = "Post"
cell.imageView?.image = Saveddata[indexPath.row]
return cell
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return self.Saveddata.count
}
Your call to self.tableView.reloadData() is in the wrong place and it's being called from the wrong queue. You need to call it on the main queue and it needs to be called inside the query completion handler after you update the data model.
query.findObjectsInBackground(block: { (objects : [PFObject]?, error: Error?) -> Void in
if error == nil {
for object in objects! {
if let userPicture = object.value(forKey: "photo") {
let userPicture = object.value(forKey: "photo")! as! PFFile
userPicture.getDataInBackground({ (imageData: Data?, error: Error?) -> Void in
let image = UIImage(data: imageData!)
if image != nil {
self.Saveddata.append(image!)
}
})
}
}
DispatchQueue.main.async {
self.tableview.reloadData()
}
}
})
