I had work out to save video clip to Photos gallery.
Here the code as below, but it not working.
Even though the saveVideo return true, but I open Photos gallery can not get the video clip.
filepath
is the location on local Document directory
func saveVideo(filePath: String) {
UISaveVideoAtPathToSavedPhotosAlbum (filePath, self,"video:didFinishSavingWithError:contextInfo:", nil)
}
func video(filePath: String, didFinishSavingWithError error: NSError?, contextInfo:UnsafePointer<Void>) {
if error == nil {
let ac = UIAlertController(title: "Saved!", message: "Your altered video has been saved to your gallery.", preferredStyle: .Alert)
ac.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "OK", style: .Default, handler: nil))
self.presentViewController(ac, animated: true, completion: nil)
} else {
let ac = UIAlertController(title: "Save error", message: error?.localizedDescription, preferredStyle: .Alert)
ac.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "OK", style: .Default, handler: nil))
self.presentViewController(ac, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
}
PHPhotoLibrary.sharedPhotoLibrary().performChanges({ () -> Void in
let createAssetRequest: PHAssetChangeRequest = PHAssetChangeRequest.creationRequestForAssetFromVideoAtFileURL(NSURL(string: filePath)!)!
createAssetRequest.placeholderForCreatedAsset
}) { (success, error) -> Void in
if success {
//popup alert success
}
else {
//popup alert unsuccess
}
}
Try this category for storing and updating PHAsset (Image/Video),
https://github.com/zakkhoyt/PHAsset-Utility
In this library you have to provide PHAsset object into block for category actions.
Try this one :-
For Objective - C.
This code is for download video from internet and save it to photos library.
NSURL *videoUrl = [NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"Your Video Url"]];
dispatch_queue_t q = dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_HIGH, 0ul);
dispatch_async(q, ^{
NSData *videoData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:videoUrl];
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
// Write it to cache directory
NSString *videoPath = [[NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSCachesDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES) objectAtIndex:0] stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"file.mov"];
[videoData writeToFile:videoPath atomically:YES];
// After that use this path to save it to PhotoLibrary
ALAssetsLibrary *library = [[ALAssetsLibrary alloc] init];
[library writeVideoAtPathToSavedPhotosAlbum:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:videoPath] completionBlock:^(NSURL *assetURL, NSError *error)
{
if (error)
{
NSLog("Error");
}
else
{
NSLog("Success");
}
}];
});
});
you can use PHPhotoLibrary
in place of ALAssetsLibrary
while developing app for iOS 9.0 or later.
You can use above code in Swift by converting to swift syntax.
