I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your help. I'm actually getting the error: Cannot assign value of type 'String' to type '[QuotesMainViewController.Quote]'
I put the code below. Is there a better way to post it here? Maybe as an answer?
import UIKit
class QuotesMainViewController: UIViewController, UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource {
@IBOutlet weak var quotesTableView: UITableView!
struct Quote {
var label: String
var like: Bool = false // a priori, false
}
var quoteList: [Quote] = []
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
quotesTableView.delegate = self
quotesTableView.dataSource = self
let defaults = UserDefaults.standard
quoteList = UserDefaults.standard.string(forKey: "QuoteListKey") ?? [Quote(label: "Quote1"), Quote(label: "Quote2"), Quote(label: "Quote3")]
}
@IBAction func likeTapped(_ sender: UIButton) {
quoteList[sender.tag].like.toggle() // update the dataSource ; sender.tag gives the row in the array
if quoteList[sender.tag].like {
sender.setImage(UIImage(named: "GreenHeart"), for: .normal) // You can change here or ask for a reloadData()
} else {
sender.setImage(UIImage(named: "blankHeart"), for: .normal)
}
let defaults = UserDefaults.standard
defaults.set(quoteList, forKey: "QuoteListKey") // or defaults.set(quoteLikes, forKey: "LikeKey")
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return quoteList.count
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = quotesTableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "cell") as! QuotesTableViewCell
cell.quoteLabel.text = quoteList[indexPath.row].label
cell.likeButton.tag = indexPath.row // Use tag to reference the cell, not to set true / false
cell.likeButton.setImage(UIImage(named: quoteList[indexPath.row].like ? "GreenHeart" : "blankHeart"), for: .normal)
return cell
}
}
import UIKit
class QuotesTableViewCell: UITableViewCell {
@IBOutlet weak var likeButton: UIButton!
@IBOutlet weak var quoteLabel: UILabel!
override func awakeFromNib() {
super.awakeFromNib()
// Initialization code
}
override func setSelected(_ selected: Bool, animated: Bool) {
super.setSelected(selected, animated: animated)
// Configure the view for the selected state
}
}
