将 Picker 值存储到 UserDefaults

Question

I would like to store the User's selection of the current language to UserDefaults. The user choose the language they prefer through a picker. Yet, I have no idea on how to place the code to update the UserDefaults.

Here is my code:

enum Language: Int, CaseIterable, Identifiable {
    case en
    case zh_hant
    
    var description: String {
        switch self {
        case.en:
            return "English"
        case.zh_hant:
            return "繁體中文"
        }
    }
    
    var id: Int {
        self.rawValue
    }
}

And then in my model class:

final class ModelData: ObservableObject {
    // this is to be used as the default when the app is first launch.
    // However, if the user choose the language, the default should be retrieve from UserDefaults
    @Published var currentLanguage: Language = Language.en
}

And the user interface for selecting language:

struct ConfigurationView: View {
    
    @EnvironmentObject var modelData: ModelData
    
    let lang_title = ["Language", "語言"]

    var body: some View {
        List {
            VStack {
                HStack {
                    Text(lang_title[modelData.currentLanguage.rawValue]).font(.title2)
                    Spacer()
                }
                Picker("Language", selection: $modelData.currentLanguage) {
                    ForEach(Language.allCases, id: \.id) { language in
                        Text(language.description).tag(language)
                    }
                }
                .pickerStyle(SegmentedPickerStyle())
            }
            .padding()
        }

    }
}

How can I load the selected language from UserDefaults and update if the user selected?

Answer 1

Here is a possible way (the value to store/restore you can chose as you want)

    Picker("Language", selection: $modelData.currentLanguage) {
        ForEach(Language.allCases, id: \.id) { language in
            Text(language.description).tag(language)
        }
    }
    .pickerStyle(SegmentedPickerStyle())
    .onChange(of: modelData.currentLanguage) {
        UserDefaults.standard.setValue($0.rawValue, forKey: "language")
    }

and creation (or in init if needed some decoding)

final class ModelData: ObservableObject {
    @Published var currentLanguage = Language(rawValue: UserDefaults.standard.value(forKey: "language") as? Int ?? 0)!
}

Also as alternate you can consider AppStorage property wrapper inside ConfigurationView view.

I would simple do:

import SwiftUI

final class ModelData: ObservableObject {
    // this is to be used as the default when the app is first launch.
    // However, if the user choose the language, the default should be retrieve from UserDefaults

  @AppStorage("currentLanguage") var currentLanguage: Language = Language.en
}
