Swift-交付应用程序上的本地通知图标徽章编号更新处于后台

Question

I am trying to figure how I can update dynamically the icon badge number when a local notification is delivered. Registering the badge number upon scheduling is not an option since if I register two or more notification before any are delivered the

UIApplication.shared.applicationIconBadgeNumber // this will be zero 

will always be zero until a notification is delivered.

I can use the UNUsernotification delegate with the func

func userNotificationCenter(_ center: UNUserNotificationCenter, willPresent notification: UNNotification, withCompletionHandler completionHandler: @escaping (UNNotificationPresentationOptions) -> Void) { } 

but this function is called just if the app is active. What if the app is not active?

I've read a bit around and pretty much everyone i've read says there is no way to do such a thing! But is this even possible??

How the Apple manage the notification for reminder and calendar? are they local notification and they update the icon badge? or am I making a mistake? I believe it must be a way to update the icon badge when the local notification is delivered?

Any idea guys? can't believe Apple did not provide a way to achieve this! Thank you!

UNMutableNotificationContent has a property call badge. You set this property before trigger de notification and that's it! Badge number property is NSNumber so it's a little tricky incrementing it by 1.

let content = UNMutableNotificationContent()
content.title = NSString.localizedUserNotificationString(forKey:
        "Your Last Time Alarm!", arguments: nil)
content.body = self.userInfo["descripcion"]!
content.sound = UNNotificationSound.default  
content.badge = NSNumber(value: UIApplication.shared.applicationIconBadgeNumber + 1)

The rest is set the trigger and add the request:

let trigger = UNTimeIntervalNotificationTrigger(timeInterval: 5, repeats: false) 
  let request = UNNotificationRequest(identifier: idNotificacion, content: content, trigger: trigger) 
  let center = UNUserNotificationCenter.current()
  center.add(request) { (error : Error?) in
    if let theError = error {
      print(theError)
    } else {
       ...
    }
  }

In order to be able to increase the badge for both repetitive and scheduled notifications, you should increase UIApplication.shared.applicationIconBadgeNumber, before configuring the notification:

UIApplication.shared.applicationIconBadgeNumber += 1

And then just simply:

let notificationContent = UNMutableNotificationContent()
                notificationContent.title = "Test"
                notificationContent.subtitle = "Test"
                notificationContent.body = "Test"
                notificationContent.sound = UNNotificationSound.default
                notificationContent.badge = UIApplication.shared.applicationIconBadgeNumber as NSNumber

In order to reset the counter every time the user opens the app, just simply set the value of UIApplication.shared.applicationIconBadgeNumber to 0 in AppDelegate.swift like this:

func applicationWillResignActive(_ application: UIApplication) {

    UIApplication.shared.applicationIconBadgeNumber = 0
}
