Installation

Cocoapods

pod 'CICropPicker'

Usage

First import the Pod

import CICropPicker

Then import the module Photos to ask for permissions

import Photos

Then in your info.plist you need to specify these properties which will be shown alongside the alert requesting access

• NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription - for the camera roll
• NSCameraUsageDescription - for the camera

If you don't specify these properties, your app will crash upon requesting access.

Showing the camera roll

You need to ask permission to access the Camera Roll

PHPhotoLibrary.requestAuthorization({ (status) in
                //Response comes in a background thread, we need to go to the main thread
                DispatchQueue.main.async {
                    sheet.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
                    switch status {
                    case .authorized:
                        let imagePicker = CICropPicker()
                        imagePicker.presentGalleryPicker(from: self)
                        break
                    default:
                        //handle access denied to camera roll
                        break
                    }
                    
                    
                }
})

Showing the camera

You need to ask permission to access the Camera

AVCaptureDevice.requestAccess(forMediaType: AVMediaTypeVideo, completionHandler: { (granted) in
                //Response comes in a background thread, we need to go to the main thread
                DispatchQueue.main.async {
                    sheet.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
                    
                    if !granted {
                        //handle access denied to camera roll
                        return
                    }
                    let imagePicker = CICropPicker()
                    imagePicker.presentCameraPicker(from: self)
                }
})

Implement the delegate CICropPickerDelegate

• imagePicker(_ imagePicker: UIImagePickerController!, pickedImage image: UIImage!) to handle image picked
• imagePickerDidCancel(_ imagePicker: UIImagePickerController!) to handle picker cancellation
