XCode11 error “open(_:options:completionHandler:) is unavailable in application extensions”

问题

I just launched Touchgram v1.0 last week, which is 99% iMessage app extension, and am trying to update to XCode11.

I'm now getting an error open(_:options:completionHandler:) is unavailable in application extensions

I have confirmed this occurs even in a trivial sample that tries to launch a web URL from an iMessage app:

For example:

    let openSel = #selector(UIApplication.open(_:options:completionHandler:))
    while (responder != nil){
        if responder?.responds(to: openSel ) == true {
            // cannot package up multiple args to openSel 
            // so we explicitly call it on the iMessage application instance

            // found by iterating up the chain
            (responder as? UIApplication)?.open(url, completionHandler:handler) 
            return
        }
        responder = responder!.next
    }

Also asked on the Apple Developer Forums.

回答1:

As documented in the (sole) issue on that sample, this was an intentional change in iOS 13 as confirmed by DTS. My belief is this was part of a crackdown on abusive behaviour in keyboard extensions, which picked up iMessage extensions as a side-effect.

I'd already come up with a workaround, which is the same as they recommend.

Forward the URL to your parent app using self.extensionContext?.open
Have the parent app then launch the external app or URL on your behalf.

Here's the complete working extension from Touchgram

// UIViewController+iMessageContext.swift
// applied to class MessagesViewController: MSMessagesAppViewController, UrlOpeningInIMessage 

protocol UrlOpeningInIMessage {
    func openFromiMessageContext(url:URL)
}


extension UrlOpeningInIMessage where Self:UIViewController {
    func openFromiMessageContext(url:URL) {
        let handler = { (success:Bool) -> () in
            if success {
                os_log("Finished opening URL", log:tgEnv.logImUI, type:.debug)
            } else {
                os_log("Failed to open URL", log:tgEnv.logImUI, type:.debug)
            }
        }
        // logic same as onLaunchMainPressed, since XCode11 unable to compile extension using UIApplication.open
        // so we pass the URL through to the parent app to launch on our behalf
        let appName = Bundle.appName()
        let encodedUrl = url.dataRepresentation.base64EncodedString()
        guard let appUrl: URL = URL(string: "\(appName)://?url=\(encodedUrl)") else { return }
        // can only open our app, not generalised URLs
        self.extensionContext?.open(appUrl, completionHandler: handler)
    }
}
