Yes, that’s possible. Check out this great example on GitHub: https://github.com/mralexhay/Booky/blob/main/Shortcuts/Actions/OpenBook.swift
The code is basically the following:
// These will be the options in the Shortcut action to open a book or navigate to the library
enum NavigationType: String, AppEnum, CaseDisplayRepresentable {
case library
case book
// This will be displayed as the title of the menu shown when picking from the options
static var typeDisplayRepresentation = TypeDisplayRepresentation(name: "Navigation")
static var caseDisplayRepresentations: [Self:DisplayRepresentation] = [
.library: DisplayRepresentation(title: "Library",
subtitle: "Return to the home page",
image: .init(systemName: "books.vertical")),
.book: DisplayRepresentation(title: "Book",
subtitle: "Navigate to a specific book",
image: .init(systemName: "book"))
]
}
struct OpenBook: AppIntent {
// Title of the action in the Shortcuts app
static var title: LocalizedStringResource = "Open Book"
// Description of the action in the Shortcuts app
static var description: IntentDescription = IntentDescription("This action will open the selected book in the Booky app or navigate to the home library.", categoryName: "Navigation")
// This opens the host app when the action is run
static var openAppWhenRun = true
// A dynamic lookup parameter
@Parameter(title: "Book", description: "The book to open in Booky", requestValueDialog: IntentDialog("Which book would you like to open?"))
var book: ShortcutsBookEntity
// An enum parameter
@Parameter(title: "Navigation", description: "Choose whether to open a book or navigate to Booky's library", default: .book, requestValueDialog: IntentDialog("What would you like to navigate to?"))
var navigation: NavigationType
// How the summary will appear in the shortcut action.
static var parameterSummary: some ParameterSummary {
Switch(\OpenBook.$navigation) {
Case(NavigationType.book) {
Summary("Open \(\.$navigation) \(\.$book)")
}
Case(NavigationType.library) {
Summary("Open \(\.$navigation)")
}
DefaultCase {
Summary("Open \(\.$navigation) \(\.$book)")
}
}
}
@MainActor // <-- include if the code needs to be run on the main thread
func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult {
do {
if navigation == .book {
let matchingBook = try BookManager.shared.findBook(withId: book.id)
ViewModel.shared.navigateTo(book: matchingBook)
} else {
ViewModel.shared.navigateToLibrary()
}
return .result()
} catch let error {
throw error
}
}
}
