UITableView 在像 Facebook 应用程序一样滚动到底部时加载更多

Question

I am developing an application that uses SQLite. I want to show a list of users (UITableView) using a paginating mechanism. Could any one please tell me how to load more data in my list when the user scrolls to the end of the list (like on home page on Facebook application)?

Answer 1

You can do that by adding a check on where you're at in the cellForRowAtIndexPath: method. This method is easy to understand and to implement :

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    // Classic start method
    static NSString *cellIdentifier = @"MyCell";
    MyCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:cellIdentifier];
    if (!cell)
    {
        cell = [[MyCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:MainMenuCellIdentifier];
    }

    MyData *data = [self.dataArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
    // Do your cell customisation
    // cell.titleLabel.text = data.title;

    BOOL lastItemReached = [data isEqual:[[self.dataArray] lastObject]]; 
    if (!lastItemReached && indexPath.row == [self.dataArray count] - 1)
    {
        [self launchReload];
    }
}

EDIT : added a check on last item to prevent recursion calls. You'll have to implement the method defining whether the last item has been reached or not.

EDIT2 : explained lastItemReached

Answer 2

Swift

Method 1: Did scroll to bottom

Here is the Swift version of Pedro Romão's answer . When the user stops scrolling it checks if it has reached the bottom.

func scrollViewDidEndDragging(scrollView: UIScrollView, willDecelerate decelerate: Bool) {

    // UITableView only moves in one direction, y axis
    let currentOffset = scrollView.contentOffset.y
    let maximumOffset = scrollView.contentSize.height - scrollView.frame.size.height

    // Change 10.0 to adjust the distance from bottom
    if maximumOffset - currentOffset <= 10.0 {
        self.loadMore()
    }
}

Method 2: Reached last row

And here is the Swift version of shinyuX's answer . It checks if the user has reached the last row.

func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {

    // set up cell
    // ...

    // Check if the last row number is the same as the last current data element
    if indexPath.row == self.dataArray.count - 1 {
        self.loadMore()
    }

}

Example of a loadMore() method

I set up these three class variables for fetching batches of data.

// number of items to be fetched each time (i.e., database LIMIT)
let itemsPerBatch = 50

// Where to start fetching items (database OFFSET)
var offset = 0

// a flag for when all database items have already been loaded
var reachedEndOfItems = false

This is the function to load more items from the database into the table view.

func loadMore() {

    // don't bother doing another db query if already have everything
    guard !self.reachedEndOfItems else {
        return
    }

    // query the db on a background thread
    DispatchQueue.global(qos: .background).async {

        // determine the range of data items to fetch
        var thisBatchOfItems: [MyObjects]?
        let start = self.offset
        let end = self.offset + self.itemsPerBatch

        // query the database
        do {
            // SQLite.swift wrapper
            thisBatchOfItems = try MyDataHelper.findRange(start..<end)
        } catch _ {
            print("query failed")
        }

        // update UITableView with new batch of items on main thread after query finishes
        DispatchQueue.main.async {

            if let newItems = thisBatchOfItems {

                // append the new items to the data source for the table view
                self.myObjectArray.appendContentsOf(newItems)

                // reload the table view
                self.tableView.reloadData()

                // check if this was the last of the data
                if newItems.count < self.itemsPerBatch {
                    self.reachedEndOfItems = true
                    print("reached end of data. Batch count: \(newItems.count)")
                }

                // reset the offset for the next data query
                self.offset += self.itemsPerBatch
            }

        }
    }
}

Answer 3

Better to use willDisplayCell method to check if which cell will be loaded. Once we get the current indexPath.row is last we can load more cells. This will load more cells on scrolling down.

 - (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView 
       willDisplayCell:(UITableViewCell *)cell    
       forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    // check if indexPath.row is last row
    // Perform operation to load new Cell's.
}

Answer 5

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView willDisplayCell:(UITableViewCell *)cell forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    NSInteger lastSectionIndex = [tableView numberOfSections] - 1;
    NSInteger lastRowIndex = [tableView numberOfRowsInSection:lastSectionIndex] - 1;
    if ((indexPath.section == lastSectionIndex) && (indexPath.row == lastRowIndex)) {
        // This is the last cell
        [self loadMore];
    }
}

If you are using Core Data and NSFetchedResultsController , then loadMore could look like the following:

// Load more
- (void)loadMore {
    [self.fetchedResultsController.fetchRequest setFetchLimit:newFetchLimit];
    [NSFetchedResultsController deleteCacheWithName:@"cache name"];
    NSError *error;
    if (![self.fetchedResultsController performFetch:&error]) {
        // Update to handle the error appropriately.
        NSLog(@"Unresolved error %@, %@", error, [error userInfo]);
    }

    [self.tableView reloadData];
}

Solution

Generic UITableView Extension For Loadmore.

add this UITableView + Extension in your new file

extension UITableView {

func indicatorView() -> UIActivityIndicatorView{
    var activityIndicatorView = UIActivityIndicatorView()
    if self.tableFooterView == nil {
        let indicatorFrame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: self.bounds.width, height: 80)
        activityIndicatorView = UIActivityIndicatorView(frame: indicatorFrame)
        activityIndicatorView.autoresizingMask = [.flexibleLeftMargin, .flexibleRightMargin]
        
        if #available(iOS 13.0, *) {
            activityIndicatorView.style = .large
        } else {
            // Fallback on earlier versions
            activityIndicatorView.style = .whiteLarge
        }
        
        activityIndicatorView.color = .systemPink
        activityIndicatorView.hidesWhenStopped = true

        self.tableFooterView = activityIndicatorView
        return activityIndicatorView
    }
    else {
        return activityIndicatorView
    }
}

func addLoading(_ indexPath:IndexPath, closure: @escaping (() -> Void)){
    indicatorView().startAnimating()
    if let lastVisibleIndexPath = self.indexPathsForVisibleRows?.last {
        if indexPath == lastVisibleIndexPath && indexPath.row == self.numberOfRows(inSection: 0) - 1 {
            DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 1) {
                closure()
            }
        }
    }
}

func stopLoading() {
    if self.tableFooterView != nil {
        self.indicatorView().stopAnimating()
        self.tableFooterView = nil
    }
    else {
        self.tableFooterView = nil
    }
} 
}

Now, just add following line of code in UITableViewDelegate Method willDisplay Cell in your ViewController and make sure tableView.delegate = self

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, willDisplay cell: UITableViewCell, forRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
    // need to pass your indexpath then it showing your indicator at bottom 
    tableView.addLoading(indexPath) {
        // add your code here
        // append Your array and reload your tableview
        tableView.stopLoading() // stop your indicator
    }
}

Result

That's it.. Hope this helpful. Thank You

Answer 7

I have implemented one solution that i found in stackoverflow, and it works fine, but i think the shinyuX's solution it's very easy to implement and works fine for my propose. If someone wants a different solution can use this one below.

- (void)scrollViewDidEndDragging:(UIScrollView *)scrollView willDecelerate:(BOOL)decelerate{

   // UITableView only moves in one direction, y axis
    CGFloat currentOffset = scrollView.contentOffset.y;
    CGFloat maximumOffset = scrollView.contentSize.height - scrollView.frame.size.height;

    //NSInteger result = maximumOffset - currentOffset;

    // Change 10.0 to adjust the distance from bottom
    if (maximumOffset - currentOffset <= 10.0) {
        [self loadOneMorePage];
        //[self methodThatAddsDataAndReloadsTableView];
    }
}

Answer 8

Use limit and offset in your queries and fill your tableview with that content. When the user scrolls down, load the next offset.

Implement the tableView:willDisplayCell:forRowAtIndexPath: method in your UITableViewDelegate and check to see if it's the last row

Answer 9

Below link will provide sample code. #Swift3

User need to pull up last table view cell, at least hight of 2 cell to fetch more data from server.

You will found Process cell also to show loading process as in last cell.

Its in Swift3

Answer 10

One more option to use ( Swift 3 and iOS 10+):

class DocumentEventsTableViewController: UITableViewController, UITableViewDataSourcePrefetching {

     var currentPage: Int = 1
     let pageSize: Int = 10 // num of items in one page

     override func viewDidLoad() {
         super.viewDidLoad()

         self.tableView.prefetchDataSource = self
     }

     func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, prefetchRowsAt indexPaths: [IndexPath]) {
         let upcomingRows = indexPaths.map { $0.row }

         if let maxIndex = upcomingRows.max() {

            let nextPage: Int = Int(ceil(Double(maxIndex) / Double(pageSize))) + 1

            if nextPage > currentPage {
                 // Your function, which attempts to load respective page from the local database
                 loadLocalData(page: nextPage)

                 // Your function, which makes a network request to fetch the respective page of data from the network
                 startLoadingDataFromNetwork(page: nextPage) 

                 currentPage = nextPage
             }
         }
     }
 }

For rather small pages (~ 10 items) you might want to manually add data for pages 1 and 2 because nextPage might be somewhere about 1-2 until the table has a few items to be scrolled well. But it will work great for all next pages.

very good explanation on this post.

http://useyourloaf.com/blog/2010/10/02/dynamically-loading-new-rows-into-a-table.html

simple you have to add last row and hide it and when table row hit last row than show the row and load more items.

Answer 12

you should check ios UITableViewDataSourcePrefetching.

    @IBOutlet weak var mytableview: UITableView!

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        mytableview.prefetchDataSource = self

 func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, prefetchRowsAt indexPaths: [IndexPath]) {
        print("prefetchdRowsAtIndexpath \(indexPaths)")
    }

    func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cancelPrefetchingForRowsAt indexPaths: [IndexPath]) {

Answer 14

for loading from an API, It works for me, Xcode 10 , swift 4.2 :

1- create New Swift file and do like this:

//
//  apiTVCController.swift
//  ApiTestingTableView
//
//  Created by Hooma7n on 4/7/19.

//

import Foundation
import Alamofire

class apiget {

    var tableData : [Datum] = []
    var loadin : [Datum] = []
    var testfortotal : Int?


    func getfromapi(completionHandler : ((_ isSucess : Bool) -> Void)?) {
        let url = "https://reqres.in/api/users?page=1"
        Alamofire.request(url, method: .get, parameters: nil, encoding: JSONEncoding.default, headers: nil)
            .responseJSON(completionHandler : { response in
                switch response.result {
                case .success(let data):
                    guard let jsonData = try? JSONSerialization.data(withJSONObject: data, options: JSONSerialization.WritingOptions.prettyPrinted) else {return}
                    let decoder = JSONDecoder()
                    guard let result = try? decoder.decode(Welcome.self, from: jsonData) else {return}
                    self.tableData = result.data ?? []
                    self.testfortotal = result.total ?? 0
                    completionHandler?(true)

                //                    print(result)
                case .failure(let error):
                    print(error)
                }
            })
    }

    var pagecounter : Int = 2


    func loadmore(completionHandler : ((_ isSucess : Bool) -> Void)?){

        let url = "https://reqres.in/api/users?page=\(pagecounter)"
        Alamofire.request(url, method: .get, parameters: nil, encoding: JSONEncoding.default, headers: nil)
            .responseJSON(completionHandler : { response in
                switch response.result {
                case .success(let data):
                    guard let jsonData = try? JSONSerialization.data(withJSONObject: data, options: JSONSerialization.WritingOptions.prettyPrinted) else {return}
                    let decoder = JSONDecoder()
                    guard let myresult = try? decoder.decode(Welcome.self, from: jsonData) else {return}
                    self.loadin = myresult.data ?? []
                    self.tableData.append(contentsOf: myresult.data ?? [])
                    completionHandler?(true)
                    print(self.pagecounter)
                    self.pagecounter += 1

                //                    print(myresult)
                case .failure(let error):
                    print(error)
                }
            })

    }

}

extension apiget {

    struct Welcome: Codable {
        let page, perPage, total, totalPages: Int?
        var data: [Datum]?

        enum CodingKeys: String, CodingKey {
            case page
            case perPage = "per_page"
            case total
            case totalPages = "total_pages"
            case data
        }
    }

    struct Datum: Codable {
        let id: Int?
        let firstName, lastName: String?
        let avatar: String?

        enum CodingKeys: String, CodingKey {
            case id
            case firstName = "first_name"
            case lastName = "last_name"
            case avatar
        }
    }


}

2- in Your ViewController file (tableView Controller) :

//
//  apiTVC.swift
//  ApiTestingTableView
//
//  Created by Hooma7n on 4/7/19.
//  Copyright © 2019 Hooma7n. All rights reserved.
//

import UIKit
import Alamofire

class apiTVC: UITableViewController {

    var datamodel = apiget()

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

        datamodel.getfromapi(completionHandler: {finish in
            if finish {self.tableView.reloadData()
            }

        })

    }


    override func numberOfSections(in tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
        return 1
    }

    override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
        return datamodel.tableData.count
    }

    override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {

        let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "Cell", for: indexPath) as! apiTableViewCell
        cell.firstNameLabel.text = datamodel.tableData[indexPath.row].firstName
        cell.lastNameLabel.text = datamodel.tableData[indexPath.row].lastName
        cell.dateLabel.text = "\(datamodel.tableData[indexPath.row].id ?? 0)"
        cell.profileImageView.loadImage(fromURL: datamodel.tableData[indexPath.row].avatar ?? "")

        return cell

    }

    override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, willDisplay cell: UITableViewCell, forRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
        let lastElement = datamodel.tableData.count - 1
        let total = datamodel.testfortotal ?? 12
        if indexPath.row == lastElement && datamodel.tableData.count < total{

            datamodel.loadmore(completionHandler: {finish in
                if finish {

                    self.tableView.reloadData()

                }})
        }
    }
}

if using tableView in Your viewController set delegate , datasource self in viewDidLoad.

Answer 15

Just wanna share this approach:

- (void)scrollViewDidEndDecelerating:(UIScrollView *)scrollView
{
    NSLog(@"%@", [[YourTableView indexPathsForVisibleRows] lastObject]);
    [self estimatedTotalData];
}

- (void)estimatedTotalData
{
    long currentRow = ((NSIndexPath *)[[YourTableView indexPathsForVisibleRows] lastObject]).row;

    long estimateDataCount = 25;

    while (currentRow > estimateDataCount)
    {
        estimateDataCount+=25;
    }

    dataLimit = estimateDataCount;

    if (dataLimit == currentRow+1)
    {
        dataLimit+=25;
    }

    NSLog(@"dataLimit :%ld", dataLimit);

    [self requestForData];

    // this answers the question..
    //
    if(YourDataSource.count-1 == currentRow)
    {
        NSLog(@"LAST ROW"); //loadMore data
    }
}

NSLog(...); output would be something like:

<NSIndexPath: 0xc0000000002e0016> {length = 2, path = 0 - 92}
dataLimit :100
<NSIndexPath: 0xc000000000298016> {length = 2, path = 0 - 83}
dataLimit :100
<NSIndexPath: 0xc000000000278016> {length = 2, path = 0 - 79}
dataLimit :100
<NSIndexPath: 0xc000000000238016> {length = 2, path = 0 - 71}
dataLimit :75
<NSIndexPath: 0xc0000000001d8016> {length = 2, path = 0 - 59}
dataLimit :75
<NSIndexPath: 0xc0000000001c0016> {length = 2, path = 0 - 56}
dataLimit :75
<NSIndexPath: 0xc000000000138016> {length = 2, path = 0 - 39}
dataLimit :50
<NSIndexPath: 0xc000000000120016> {length = 2, path = 0 - 36}
dataLimit :50
<NSIndexPath: 0xc000000000008016> {length = 2, path = 0 - 1}
dataLimit :25
<NSIndexPath: 0xc000000000008016> {length = 2, path = 0 - 1}
dataLimit :25

This is good for displaying data stored locally. Initially I declare the dataLimit to 25, that means uitableview will have 0-24 (initially).

If the user scrolled to the bottom and the last cell is visible dataLimit will be added with 25...

Note: This is more like a UITableView data paging, :)

-(void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView willDisplayCell:(UITableViewCell *)cell forRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {

NSInteger sectionsAmount = [tableView numberOfSections];
NSInteger rowsAmount = [tableView numberOfRowsInSection:[indexPath section]];
if ([indexPath section] == sectionsAmount - 1 && [indexPath row] == rowsAmount - 1) {
    //get last row
    if (!isSearchActive && !isFilterSearchActive) {
        if (totalRecords % 8 == 0) {
            int64_t delayInSeconds = 2.0;
            dispatch_time_t popTime = dispatch_time(DISPATCH_TIME_NOW, delayInSeconds * NSEC_PER_SEC);
            dispatch_after(popTime, dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^(void) {


            [yourTableView beginUpdates];
            [yourTableView insertRowsAtIndexPaths:indexPaths withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationAutomatic];
            [yourTableView endUpdates];
            });
        }
    }
}
}

Answer 17

The best way to solve this problem is to add cell at the bottom of your table, and this cell will hold indicator.

In swift you need to add this:

1. Create new cell of type cellLoading this will hold the indicator. Look at the code below
2. Look at the num of rows and add 1 to it (This is for loading cell).
3. you need to check in the rawAtIndex if idexPath.row == yourArray.count then return Loading cell.

look at code below:

import UIKit

class LoadingCell: UITableViewCell {

@IBOutlet weak var indicator: UIActivityIndicatorView!


}

For table view : numOfRows:

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
    return  yourArray.count + 1
}

cellForRawAt indexPath:

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {

    if indexPath.row == users.count  {
        // need to change
        let loading = Bundle.main.loadNibNamed("LoadingCell", owner: LoadingCell.self , options: nil)?.first as! LoadingCell
        return loading

    }

    let yourCell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "cellCustomizing", for: indexPath) as! UITableViewCell

    return yourCell

}

If you notice that my loading cell is created from a nib file. This videos will explain what I did.

Answer 18

let threshold = 100.0 // threshold from bottom of tableView
var isLoadingMore = false // flag


func scrollViewDidScroll(scrollView: UIScrollView) {
    let contentOffset = scrollView.contentOffset.y
    let maximumOffset = scrollView.contentSize.height - scrollView.frame.size.height;

    if !isLoadingMore && (maximumOffset - contentOffset <= threshold) {
        // Get more data - API call
        self.isLoadingMore = true

        // Update UI
        dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue()) {
            tableView.reloadData()
            self.isLoadingMore = false
        }
    }
  }

Answer 19

it is sample code.

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
    let cell:ShowComplainCell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "cell")! as! ShowComplainCell

    let item  = self.dataArray[indexPath.row] as! ComplainListItem;

    let indexPathArray = NSArray(array: tableView.indexPathsForVisibleRows!)
    let vIndexPath = indexPathArray.lastObject as! NSIndexPath

    let lastItemReached = item.isEqual(self.dataArray.lastObject);

    if (lastItemReached && vIndexPath.row == (self.dataArray.count - 1))
       {

        self.loadData()
       }
    


    return cell
    
}

indexPathArray: is visible rows.

vIndexPath:is visible last indexpath

load data

 func loadData(){

       if(isReloadTable){
       let HUD = MBProgressHUD.showAdded(to: self.view, animated: true)
       let manager :AFHTTPSessionManager = AFHTTPSessionManager()
     
       
           var param = NSDictionary()
           param = [
               "category":cat_id,
               "smart_user_id": USERDEF.value(forKey: "user_id") as! String,
               "page":page,

           ] as [String : Any] as NSDictionary
           print("param1 = \(param)")

           manager.get("lists.php?", parameters: param, progress: nil, success: { (task:URLSessionDataTask, responseObject: Any) in
               
     
                       let adsArray =  dic["results"] as! NSArray;
                       for item in adsArray {
                           let item  = ComplainListItem(dictionary: item as! NSDictionary )
                           self.dataArray.add(item)
                       }
                   
                       self.view.addSubview(self.cityTableView)
                       self.cityTableView.reloadData()
                   
                   if(adsArray.count==10){
                       self.cityTableView.reloadData()
                       self.isReloadTable = true
                       self.page+=1
                   }else if(adsArray.count<10){
                       self.cityTableView.reloadData()
                       self.isReloadTable = false
               }
               
               HUD.hide(animated:true)
               
           }) { (operation,error) -> Void in
               print("error = \(error)")
               HUD.hide(animated:true)
           }
       }
        
   }

check your dataArray count which is myadsarray check to equal your data limit. then if dataArray count equal next page is called if not equal which is less then 10, all data is showed or finished.
