I'm building a SwiftUI
app using MVVM.
I need some additional behaviors for text field, so I'm wrapping a UITextField
in a UIViewRepresentable
view.
If I use a simple @State
in the view that contains my text fields to bind the text, the custom text field behave as expected; but since I want to store all texts of my text fields in the view model, I'm using an @ObservedObject
; when using that, the text field binding doesn't work: it looks like it's always reset to initial state (empty text) and it doesn't publish any value (and the view doesn't refresh). This weird behavior happens only for UIViewRepresentable
views.
My main view contains a form and it looks like this:
struct LoginSceneView: View {
@ObservedObject private var viewModel: LoginViewModel = LoginViewModel()
var body: some View {
ScrollView(showsIndicators: false) {
VStack(spacing: 22) {
UIKitTextField(text: $viewModel.email, isFirstResponder: $viewModel.isFirstResponder)
SecureField("Password", text: $viewModel.password)
Button(action: {}) {
Text("LOGIN")
}
.disabled(!viewModel.isButtonEnabled)
}
.padding(.vertical, 40)
}
}
}
The view model is this:
class LoginViewModel: ObservableObject {
@Published var email = ""
@Published var password = ""
@Published var isFirstResponder = false
var isButtonEnabled: Bool { !email.isEmpty && !password.isEmpty }
}
And finally, this is my custom text field:
struct UIKitTextField: UIViewRepresentable {
// MARK: - Coordinator
class Coordinator: NSObject, UITextFieldDelegate {
private let textField: UIKitTextField
fileprivate init(_ textField: UIKitTextField) {
self.textField = textField
super.init()
}
@objc fileprivate func editingChanged(_ sender: UITextField) {
let text = sender.text ?? ""
textField.text = text
textField.onEditingChanged(text)
}
func textFieldDidBeginEditing(_ textField: UITextField) {
self.textField.onEditingBegin()
}
func textFieldDidEndEditing(_ textField: UITextField) {
self.textField.onEditingEnd()
}
func textFieldShouldReturn(_ textField: UITextField) -> Bool {
self.textField.onReturnKeyPressed()
}
}
// MARK: - Properties
@Binding private var text: String
private let onEditingChanged: (String) -> Void
private let onEditingBegin: () -> Void
private let onEditingEnd: () -> Void
private let onReturnKeyPressed: () -> Bool
// MARK: - Initializers
init(text: Binding<String>,
onEditingChanged: @escaping (String) -> Void = { _ in },
onEditingBegin: @escaping () -> Void = {},
onEditingEnd: @escaping () -> Void = {},
onReturnKeyPressed: @escaping () -> Bool = { true }) {
_text = text
self.onEditingChanged = onEditingChanged
self.onEditingBegin = onEditingBegin
self.onEditingEnd = onEditingEnd
self.onReturnKeyPressed = onReturnKeyPressed
}
// MARK: - UIViewRepresentable methods
func makeCoordinator() -> Coordinator { Coordinator(self) }
func makeUIView(context: Context) -> UITextField {
let textField = UITextField()
textField.delegate = context.coordinator
textField.setContentHuggingPriority(.defaultHigh, for: .vertical)
textField.addTarget(context.coordinator, action: #selector(Coordinator.editingChanged(_:)), for: .editingChanged)
return textField
}
func updateUIView(_ uiView: UITextField, context: Context) {
uiView.text = text
}
}
Your problem may be that UIViewRepresentable
is created every time that some binding var is changed. Put debug code to check.
struct UIKitTextField: UIViewRepresentable {
init() {
print("UIViewRepresentable init()")
}
...
}
I've edited your code, see if that's what you are looking for.
class LoginViewModel: ObservableObject {
@Published var email = ""
@Published var password = ""
var isButtonEnabled: Bool { !email.isEmpty && !password.isEmpty }
}
struct LoginSceneView: View {
@ObservedObject private var viewModel: LoginViewModel = LoginViewModel()
var body: some View {
ScrollView(showsIndicators: false) {
VStack(spacing: 22) {
UIKitTextField(text: $viewModel.email)
SecureField("Password", text: $viewModel.password)
Button(action: {
print("email is \(self.viewModel.email)")
print("password is \(self.viewModel.password)")
UIApplication.shared.endEditing()
}) {
Text("LOGIN")
}
.disabled(!viewModel.isButtonEnabled)
}
.padding(.vertical, 40)
}
}
}
struct UIKitTextField: UIViewRepresentable {
// MARK: - Coordinator
class Coordinator: NSObject, UITextFieldDelegate {
let textField: UIKitTextField
fileprivate init(_ textField: UIKitTextField) {
self.textField = textField
super.init()
}
@objc fileprivate func editingChanged(_ sender: UITextField) {
let text = sender.text ?? ""
textField.text = text
textField.onEditingChanged(text)
}
func textFieldDidBeginEditing(_ textField: UITextField) {
self.textField.onEditingBegin()
}
func textFieldDidEndEditing(_ textField: UITextField) {
self.textField.onEditingEnd()
}
func textFieldShouldReturn(_ textField: UITextField) -> Bool {
self.textField.onReturnKeyPressed()
}
}
// MARK: - Properties
@Binding private var text: String
private let onEditingChanged: (String) -> Void
private let onEditingBegin: () -> Void
private let onEditingEnd: () -> Void
private let onReturnKeyPressed: () -> Bool
// MARK: - Initializers
init(text: Binding<String>,
onEditingChanged: @escaping (String) -> Void = { _ in },
onEditingBegin: @escaping () -> Void = {},
onEditingEnd: @escaping () -> Void = {},
onReturnKeyPressed: @escaping () -> Bool = { true }) {
_text = text
self.onEditingChanged = onEditingChanged
self.onEditingBegin = onEditingBegin
self.onEditingEnd = onEditingEnd
self.onReturnKeyPressed = onReturnKeyPressed
}
// MARK: - UIViewRepresentable methods
func makeCoordinator() -> Coordinator { Coordinator(self) }
func makeUIView(context: Context) -> UITextField {
let textField = UITextField()
textField.delegate = context.coordinator
textField.setContentHuggingPriority(.defaultHigh, for: .vertical)
textField.addTarget(context.coordinator, action: #selector(Coordinator.editingChanged(_:)), for: .editingChanged)
return textField
}
func updateUIView(_ uiView: UITextField, context: Context) {
uiView.text = text
}
}
I highly recommend not making your UIViewRepresentable complex for features like using of isFirstResponder
to do what's possible with alternative ways unless necessary. I'm assuming you want to use that as a parameter to dismiss the keyboard. There are some alternatives like:
extension UIApplication {
func endEditing() {
sendAction(#selector(UIResponder.resignFirstResponder), to: nil, from: nil, for: nil)
}
}
