How to Toast message in Swift?

Question

Is there any way to Toast message in swift ?

I have tried in objective c but could not find solution in swift.

[self.view makeToast:@\"Account create         


        

Answer 1

if makeToast:duration:position: is defined in objective-c and can be called, then the swift code will be

self.view.makeToast("Acount created Successfully", duration: 0.5, position: "bottom")

You may need to use a bridging header to gain access to those method in your swift code though.

This will help for you it will make the toast at the center with proper padding

func showToast(message:String,view:UIView){
    let toastLabel = PaddingLabel()
    toastLabel.frame = CGRect(x:0, y: view.frame.size.height-100, width: view.frame.width-50, height: 0)
    toastLabel.backgroundColor = UIColor.black.withAlphaComponent(0.6)
    toastLabel.textColor = UIColor.white
    toastLabel.textAlignment = .center;
    toastLabel.font = UIFont(name: "Montserrat-Light", size: 12.0)
    toastLabel.text = message
    toastLabel.alpha = 1.0
    toastLabel.layer.cornerRadius = 10;
    toastLabel.clipsToBounds  =  true
    toastLabel.sizeToFit()
    toastLabel.frame.origin.x=(view.frame.width/2)-(toastLabel.frame.width/2)
    view.addSubview(toastLabel)
    UIView.animate(withDuration: 4.0, delay: 0.1, options: .curveEaseOut, animations: {
        toastLabel.alpha = 0.0
    }, completion: {(isCompleted) in
        toastLabel.removeFromSuperview()
    })
}

And add this PaddingLabel file for label padding

import Foundation
import UIKit
class PaddingLabel: UILabel {

let padding=UIEdgeInsetsMake(5, 10, 5,10)
override func drawText(in rect: CGRect) {
    super.drawText(in: UIEdgeInsetsInsetRect(rect, padding))
}
override func sizeThatFits(_ size: CGSize) -> CGSize {
    let superSizeThatFits=super.sizeThatFits(size)
    let width=superSizeThatFits.width+padding.left+padding.right
    let height=superSizeThatFits.height+padding.top+padding.bottom
    return CGSize(width: width, height: height)
}
}

Let me add this to this chain of answers: This library does what you need DCToastView allowing you to provide toast messages from the top or bottom side of the screen:

You will just need to add the pod

pod 'DCToastView'

Import it where you want to use it.

import DCToastView

And use it

ToastPresenter.shared.show(in: self.view, message: "This is a toast")

You can pass the following properties to the show method:

• view: The view in which the toast is going to be presented
• message: The message that the toast will show
• toastPlace: The place which can be .down or .up
• backgroundColor: The background color of the toast; defaults to black
• textColor: The text color of the message; defaults to white
• timeOut: The amount of seconds for the toast to dismiss if not provided it means that the toast will be sticky (will remain until touched); defaults to nil
• roundness: How round the toast will be: .none, .low, .mid, .high; defaults to .mid

Instead of using UILabel using UITextView gets better results.

func showToast(message: String) {
        let toastLabel = UITextView(frame: CGRect(x: self.view.frame.size.width/16, y: self.view.frame.size.height-150, width: self.view.frame.size.width * 7/8, height: 35))
        toastLabel.backgroundColor = UIColor.black.withAlphaComponent(0.6)
        toastLabel.textColor = UIColor.white
        toastLabel.textAlignment = .center;
        toastLabel.text = "   \(message)   "
        toastLabel.alpha = 1.0
        toastLabel.layer.cornerRadius = 10;
        toastLabel.clipsToBounds  =  true
        toastLabel.font = UIFont(name: (toastLabel.font?.fontName)!, size: 16)
        toastLabel.layoutEdgeInsets.left = 8
        toastLabel.layoutEdgeInsets.right = 8
        toastLabel.center.x = self.view.frame.size.width/2
        self.view.addSubview(toastLabel)
        UIView.animate(withDuration: 5.0, delay: 0.1, options: .curveEaseOut, animations: {
            toastLabel.alpha = 0.0
        }, completion: {(isCompleted) in
            toastLabel.removeFromSuperview()
        })
}

Space is added with message to provide good spacing at the both ends so that it looks good. Modified version of answer of Mr.Bean

Answer 5

static func popUp(context ctx: UIViewController, msg: String) {

    let toast = UILabel(frame:
        CGRect(x: 16, y: ctx.view.frame.size.height / 2,
               width: ctx.view.frame.size.width - 32, height: 100))

    toast.backgroundColor = UIColor.lightGray
    toast.textColor = UIColor.white
    toast.textAlignment = .center;
    toast.numberOfLines = 3
    toast.font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 20)
    toast.layer.cornerRadius = 12;
    toast.clipsToBounds  =  true

    toast.text = msg

    ctx.view.addSubview(toast)

    UIView.animate(withDuration: 5.0, delay: 0.2,
        options: .curveEaseOut, animations: {
        toast.alpha = 0.0
        }, completion: {(isCompleted) in
            toast.removeFromSuperview()
    })
}

Then just call it from UIViewController

popUp(context: self, msg: "Your message")

@mr-bean code updated to latest Swift version (3.x)

    let toastLabel =
        UILabel(frame:
            CGRect(x: self.view.frame.size.width/2 - 150,
                   y: self.view.frame.size.height-100,
                   width: 300,
                   height: 35))
    toastLabel.backgroundColor = UIColor.black
    toastLabel.textColor = UIColor.white
    toastLabel.textAlignment = NSTextAlignment.center
    self.view.addSubview(toastLabel)
    toastLabel.text = message
    toastLabel.alpha = 1.0
    toastLabel.layer.cornerRadius = 10;
    toastLabel.clipsToBounds  =  true
    UIView.animate(withDuration: 4.0, animations: {
        toastLabel.alpha = 0.0
    })
