User set time for notification in swift

Question

import UIKit
class MyView: UIViewController {
    @IBOutlet var mySwitch: UISwitch!
    @IBOutlet var myDatePicker: UIDatePicker!
    func datePicker() { myDatePicker.datePickerMode = UIDatePickerMode.Date }
    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        // Do any additional setup after loading the view.
        datePicker()
    }
    override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
        super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
        // Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
    }
    @IBAction func switchPressed(sender: AnyObject) {
        if mySwitch.on{
            var localNotification:UILocalNotification = UILocalNotification()
            localNotification.alertAction = "Open App"
            localNotification.alertBody = "Here is your notification at 7:00 AM"
            localNotification.fireDate = myDatePicker.date
            localNotification.repeatInterval = NSCalendarUnit.CalendarUnitDay
            UIApplication.sharedApplication().scheduleLocalNotification(localNotification)
        } else {
            var localNotification:UILocalNotification = UILocalNotification()
            localNotification.alertAction = "Open App"
            localNotification.alertBody = "This notification should not appear"
            localNotification.fireDate = NSDate(timeIntervalSinceNow: 999999999999)
            IApplication.sharedApplication().scheduleLocalNotification(localNotification)
        }
    }
}

    func datePickerDefaultDate() { myDatePicker.date = NSDate().xDays(+1)              }

        localNotification.applicationIconBadgeNumber = UIApplication.sharedApplication().applicationIconBadgeNumber + 1
        //     you may add arbitrary key-value pairs to this dictionary.
        //     However, the keys and values must be valid property-list types
        //     if any are not, an exception is raised.

    }
    func toggleSwitch(){

    override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
        super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()

    }
    // here is where you place your IBActions

    @IBAction func switchPressed(sender: AnyObject) {
        toggleSwitch()

    }
}

create a new Swift Source file at your project to put your extensions

import Foundation
public extension NSDate {
    func xDays(x:Int) -> NSDate {
        return NSCalendar.currentCalendar().dateByAddingUnit(.CalendarUnitDay, value: x, toDate: self, options: nil)!
    }
    var day:            Int { return NSCalendar.currentCalendar().components(NSCalendarUnit.CalendarUnitDay,           fromDate: self).day           }
    var month:          Int { return NSCalendar.currentCalendar().components(NSCalendarUnit.CalendarUnitMonth,         fromDate: self).month         }
    var year:           Int { return NSCalendar.currentCalendar().components(NSCalendarUnit.CalendarUnitYear,          fromDate: self).year          }
    var fireDate: NSDate    { return NSCalendar.currentCalendar().dateWithEra(1, year: year, month: month, day: day, hour: 7, minute: 0, second: 0, nanosecond: 0)! }
}

Answer 2

If you already have the UIDatePicker, all you need to do is grab the date property from it and use it to set the fireDate.
