I am trying to create a custom view controller to be used with a share extension. Everything works, but I don't know how to dismiss the custom view controller. Basically I launch my share extension from safari and want to completely dismiss this and return back to the safari view. I know this should not be hard, but I am new to share extensions. Below is my base code. Thanks. Bob
//
// ShareViewController.swift
// ShareExtension
import UIKit
import Social
import MobileCoreServices
class ShareViewController: UIViewController {
private var url: NSURL?
@IBAction func backButton(_ sender: Any) {
print("back button pressed")
self.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
}
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
}
private func getURL() {
let extensionItem = extensionContext?.inputItems.first as! NSExtensionItem
let itemProvider = extensionItem.attachments?.first as! NSItemProvider
let propertyList = String(kUTTypePropertyList)
if itemProvider.hasItemConformingToTypeIdentifier(propertyList) {
itemProvider.loadItem(forTypeIdentifier: propertyList, options: nil, completionHandler: { (item, error) -> Void in
guard let dictionary = item as? NSDictionary else { return }
OperationQueue.main.addOperation {
if let results = dictionary[NSExtensionJavaScriptPreprocessingResultsKey] as? NSDictionary,
let urlString = results["URL"] as? String,
let url = NSURL(string: urlString) {
self.url = url
}
}
})
} else {
print("error")
}
}
}
