Improvements

YPImagePicker was built from the great Fusuma library.

Here are the improvements we added :

Improve Overall Code Quality
Simplify API
Added Filters View ala Instagram
Replaces icons with lighter Text
Preselect Front camera (e.g for avatars)
Scroll between tabs which feels smoother
Grab videos form the library view as well
Replaces Delegate based with callbacks based api
Uses Native Navigation bar over custom View (gotta be a good UIKit citizen)

Installation

Plist entries

In order for your app to access camera and photo libraries, you'll need to ad these plist entries :

Privacy - Camera Usage Description (photo/videos)
Privacy - Photo Library Usage Description (library)
Privacy - Microphone Usage Description (videos)

<key>NSCameraUsageDescription</key>
<string>yourWording</string>
<key>NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription</key>
<string>yourWording</string>
<key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key>
<string>yourWording</string>

Configuration

var config = YPImagePickerConfiguration()
config.onlySquareImagesFromLibrary = false
config.onlySquareImagesFromCamera = true
config.libraryTargetImageSize = .original
config.showsVideo = true
config.usesFrontCamera = true
config.showsFilters = true
config.shouldSaveNewPicturesToAlbum = true
config.videoCompression = AVAssetExportPresetHighestQuality
config.albumName = "MyGreatAppName"
config.startOnScreen = .library

// Build a picker with your configuration
let picker = YPImagePicker(configuration: config)

Default Configuration

// Set the default configuration for all pickers
YPImagePicker.setDefaultConfiguration(config)

// And then use the default configuration like so:
let picker = YPImagePicker()

Usage

import YPImagePicker then use the following:

let picker = YPImagePicker()

// unowned is Mandatory since it would create a retain cycle otherwise :)
picker.didSelectImage = { [unowned picker] img in
    // image picked
    print(img.size)
    self.imageView.image = img
    picker.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
}
picker.didSelectVideo = { videoData, videoThumbnailImage in
    // video picked
    self.imageView.image = videoThumbnailImage
    picker.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
}
present(picker, animated: true, completion: nil)
