Getting device orientation in Swift

Question

I was wondering how I can get the current device orientation in Swift? I know there are examples for Objective-C, however I haven\'t been able to get it working in Swift.

Answer 1

struct DeviceInfo {
struct Orientation {
    // indicate current device is in the LandScape orientation
    static var isLandscape: Bool {
        get {
            return UIDevice.current.orientation.isValidInterfaceOrientation
                ? UIDevice.current.orientation.isLandscape
                : UIApplication.shared.statusBarOrientation.isLandscape
        }
    }
    // indicate current device is in the Portrait orientation
    static var isPortrait: Bool {
        get {
            return UIDevice.current.orientation.isValidInterfaceOrientation
                ? UIDevice.current.orientation.isPortrait
                : UIApplication.shared.statusBarOrientation.isPortrait
        }
    }
}}
