A photo search/picker for iOS using popular providers like 500px, Flickr, Instagram, Google, Bing & Getty Images. This control tries to mimic as close as possible UIKit's UIImagePickerController in terms of features, appearance and behaviour.
- Search photos on mutiple service providers (500px, Flickr, Instagram, Google, Bing & Getty Images)
- Auto-completed typing for easier search (using Flickr's API as a common denominator).
- Present the photo picker with a pre-defined search term to automatically start searching.
- Exact same UI layouts and behaviours than UIImagePickerController.
- Edit photo selections with cropping guides : square, circular (like the Contacts app) and custom size.
- Circular cropping mode for using with UIImagePickerController (check on UIImagePickerController+Edit).
- Creative Commons licences optional filtering.
- App Store safe. Innapropriate content disabled for all services.
- Option for disabling full sized photo download and retrieving metadata only.
- iPhone (3.5" & 4") and iPad support.
- ARC & 64bits support.
- Localization support (UI strings use NSLocalizedString but it's up to you to localize them on your app)

Import "DZNPhotoPickerController.h"
Before even creating a new instance of DZNPhotoPickerController, it is recommended that you register to the photo services APIs your will need, on your UIViewController's class method +initialize, like so:
+ (void)initialize
{
[DZNPhotoPickerController registerService:DZNPhotoPickerControllerService500px
consumerKey:YOUR_500px_KEY
consumerSecret:YOUR_500px_SECRET
subscription:DZNPhotoPickerControllerSubscriptionFree];
[DZNPhotoPickerController registerService:DZNPhotoPickerControllerServiceFlickr
consumerKey:YOUR_Flickr_KEY
consumerSecret:YOUR_Flickr_SECRET
subscription:DZNPhotoPickerControllerSubscriptionFree];
}
Creating a new instance of DZNPhotoPickerController is very similar to what you would do with UIImagePickerController:
DZNPhotoPickerController *picker = [[DZNPhotoPickerController alloc] init];
picker.supportedServices = DZNPhotoPickerControllerService500px | DZNPhotoPickerControllerServiceFlickr;
picker.allowsEditing = YES;
picker.delegate = self;
[self presentViewController:picker animated:YES completion:NO];
You can additionally set more properties:
picker.initialSearchTerm = @"Surf";
picker.cropMode = DZNPhotoEditorViewControllerCropModeCircular;
picker.enablePhotoDownload = YES;
picker.supportedLicenses = DZNPhotoPickerControllerCCLicenseBY_ALL;
picker.allowAutoCompletedSearch = YES;
You can opt-in for block methods instead of using the delegate's methods:
picker.finalizationBlock = ^(DZNPhotoPickerController *picker, NSDictionary *info) {
//Your implementation here
};
picker.failureBlock = ^(DZNPhotoPickerController *picker, NSError *error) {
//Your implementation here
};
picker.cancellationBlock = ^(DZNPhotoPickerController *picker) {
//Your implementation here
};
You can install it as a subspec (if you're not using DZNPhotoPickerController
)
pod 'DZNPhotoPickerController/Editor'
If you already have an image to edit, simply do:
DZNPhotoEditorViewController *editor = [[DZNPhotoEditorViewController alloc] initWithImage:self.myImage];
editor.cropMode = DZNPhotoEditorViewControllerCropModeCustom;
editor.cropSize = CGSizeMake(CGRectGetWidth(self.view.frame), 200.0);
[editor setAcceptBlock:^(DZNPhotoEditorViewController *editor, NSDictionary *userInfo){
//Your implementation here
}];
[editor setCancelBlock:^(DZNPhotoEditorViewController *editor){
//Your implementation here
}];
// The view controller requieres to be nested in a navigation controller
UINavigationController *controller = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:navigation];
[self presentViewController:controller animated:YES completion:NULL];
Another great feature of DZNPhotoPickerController is to allow circular edit mode when using UIImagePickerController, just like the Contact app when editing a user's avatar image.
Its use is really straightforward:
UIImagePickerController *picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
picker.allowsEditing = YES;
picker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary;
picker.delegate = self;
picker.cropMode = DZNPhotoEditorViewControllerCropModeCircular;
[self presentViewController:picker animated:YES completion:NULL];
There is also block support for UIImagePickerController! It replaces the 2 traditional delegate methods with 2 block properties instead:
picker.finalizationBlock = ^(UIImagePickerController *picker, NSDictionary *info) {
//Your implementation here
};
picker.cancellationBlock = ^(UIImagePickerController *picker) {
//Your implementation here
};
Take a look into the sample project. Everything is there.
The pod dependencies are not being versioned, so before running the project be sure to call:
pod install
Feel free to collaborate with this project! Big thanks to:
- SJ Singh: Google Images search support.
- Felipe Saint-Jean: 64bits fix of the editing guides.
- Adar Porat & Ryan Fitzgerald: AFNetworking 2.0 upgrade
- NikDude & Rob Phillips: cool add-ons
- Curtis Thorne: Bing Images search support.
