Custom input accessory view Notification - uitextfield

Question

At end of Advanced Notification Session 708 WWDC 2016. They talked about taking text input & action at same time.
Start at 24 min mark of WWDC session 708.
Where you take comment on party invite & accept or decline invite at same time. I tried to do that but am very unsuccessful.
class NotificationViewController: UIViewController, UNNotificationContentExtension {
var textField = UITextField(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 100, height: 10))
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any required interface initialization here.
}
override var canBecomeFirstResponder: Bool {
return true
}
override var inputAccessoryView: UIView? {
let customView = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 100, height: 40))
customView.backgroundColor = UIColor.red
textField.placeholder = "Type Comment here"
textField.textColor = UIColor.black
customView.addSubview(textField)
print(customView)
return customView
}
func didReceive(_ response: UNNotificationResponse, completionHandler completion: #escaping (UNNotificationContentExtensionResponseOption) -> Void) {
if response.actionIdentifier == "comment" {
becomeFirstResponder()
textField.becomeFirstResponder()
print("Its working")
if let textResponse = response as? UNTextInputNotificationResponse {
print(textResponse.userText)
completion(UNNotificationContentExtensionResponseOption.doNotDismiss)
}
completion(UNNotificationContentExtensionResponseOption.doNotDismiss)
}
}
}

Not sure exactly what your problem is, but I recently faced a similar task - and I've successfully implemented the solution from your referred WWDC talk.
My problem was that I didn't know how to dismiss the notification when using a custom inputAccessoryView. My solution was to save the completionHandler and then call it when a specific button in my custom inputAccessoryView is clicked.
First; create the function variable to store the completionHandler:
var savedCompletionBlock:(UNNotificationContentExtensionResponseOption) -> Void = { (UNNotificationContentExtensionResponseOption) in }
Then; in func didReceive(_ response: UNNotificationResponse, completionHandler completion: #escaping (UNNotificationContentExtensionResponseOption) -> Void) save the completion block:
savedCompletionBlock = completion
And finally; call it wherever you need to (e.g. on a button click):
func confirmPressed() {
savedCompletionBlock(.dismiss)
}
If this doesn't help you let me know :)
