🏞 A simple iOS photo and video browser with optional grid view, captions and selections written in Swift5.0

There seems to be a weird bug - that does not affect MediaBrowser only - in which a black bar shows up for a second when popping back from the MediaBrowser view controller. You can observe said behavior on the gifs provided by the project itself.

You can see the image show up for a second when the browser pushes back. At first I didn't think it was so bad, but it can be bit surprising when you actually see the bars happening on your device.

Here's a still shot of the black bar:

MWPhotoBrowser also has this problem.

Hi younatics,

thanks for a great media browser, I came here from MWPhotoBrowser, which is not maintained anymore, and I like your project.

I need the selection feature and the action button together in use case "Photo selection grid". If I do this, the action button moves to the upper right corner and hides the "Done" button and its function. I did a quick fix for this, commenting this line out in updateNavigation(): self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = ab

which fixes the issue. Could you please maybe add an extra option / public setter for this case, or do you accept a pull request for this? My fix workes for me, but want to stay in sync with this repo for further updates.

Also, another minor issue: If I tap a photo in the grid, the blue selection image is briefly show all though the photo was not selected, while the grid view is animating out. I debugged this and found out it seems to happen below this line, in the animation: // Animate, hide grid and show paging scroll view

Can you think of a way to fix this?

Thanks,

Has anyone got this to work using Carthage?

There is no Cartfile in the project for SDWebImage and UICircularProgressRing. Adding these frameworks to the project's Cartfile (as documented) results in build errors like these:

/Users/josvanvelzen/projects/socialschools-ios/Carthage/Checkouts/MediaBrowser/MediaBrowser/MediaZoomingScrollView.swift:10:8: error: no such module 'UICircularProgressRing'
import UICircularProgressRing
       ^

also, in the build phases there is a hard dependency to CocoaPods

PhaseScriptExecution [CP]\ Check\ Pods\ Manifest.lock /Users/josvanvelzen/Library/Caches/org.carthage.CarthageKit/DerivedData/9.2_9C40b/MediaBrowser/2.0.6/Build/Intermediates.noindex/ArchiveIntermediates/MediaBrowser/IntermediateBuildFilesPath/MediaBrowser.build/Release-iphoneos/MediaBrowser.build/Script-0C26AE7EAC3BB33AE3116C77.sh

I am no expert in this, I added the Cartfile in the Carthage/Checkouts/MediaBrowser which does resolve the dependencies but I probably will still have to link to frameworks somehow.

Has anyone got this to work using carthage only?

In MediaBrowser.swift, line 2053

if let d = delegate {
    d.actionButtonPressed(at: currentPageIndex, in: self, sender: sender)
    return
}

The function will always return here, since the delegate should be set. You should probably change the protocol extension to initiate the default behaviour (show UIActivityViewController) and just call it.

I have to start mediabrowser with GridView and do this code Swift 5 Single image show but in grid view it's not showing

let browser = MediaBrowser(delegate: self);
      
        browser.zoomPhotosToFill = true;
        browser.alwaysShowControls = true;
        browser.enableGrid = true;
        browser.startOnGrid = false;

        self.present(browser, animated: true) {

        }

MediaBrowserDelegate

func numberOfMedia(in mediaBrowser: MediaBrowser) -> Int {
        return self.arrGaller.count
    }
    
    func media(for mediaBrowser: MediaBrowser, at index: Int) -> Media {
        if index < arrGaller.count {
          return arrGaller[index]
        }
        return Media(image: UIImage(named: "logo")!)
    }
    

Hello, Seungyoun Yi. Thanks for your project, I will use it in my close-source app. I have a question about the copyright about the image resources in your project. First of all, could I use the interface icons directly in my app or should I design and replace them all? Secondary, could I use those beautiful pictures in the demo?

I don't know the source of those pictures and icons and care about their copyright. Wish you give me some advice and reply. Thank you.

Also, I want to know if Mit license or other code license like Apache license still work for image resources?

Previouly, the toolbar would be cut off on the iPhone X as it would be too close to the curves and the home indicator.

This commit updates the code that constructs the toolbar frame to use the safeAreaInset's bottom edge instead.

Fixes: https://github.com/younatics/MediaBrowser/issues/35

Would you mind changing the access level of the Media class to open?

I'd like to use your library in a project with some legacy objective-c code. Writing a wrapper class was straight forward, however, I'd need to subclass Media to make it work.

Of course I could fork, but would prefer no to...

Added the sender object to the action protocol method, if delegate method is defined, call it then return. Show the action button in navbar when in grid selection mode.

Currently, my backend is supported by firebase, which is an cloud-hosted database that queries asynchronously. Currently it fetchs the list of picture urls from firebase. With the example provided in MediaBrowserSample, it seems like the number of pictures need to be predetermined before calling the browser or exception will be thrown. Is there any workaround on that? To display the pictures correctly while still fetching the data in the backend?

I have tabs, as you can see in the screenshot, and i am trying to initiate the gallery in the tabs views without making it go full screen. I think i need help.

PS: Need Help...?

• Update target to iOS 13.0
• Fix issue with compilation error (fixes issue https://github.com/younatics/MediaBrowser/issues/85)
• Remove some warnings of deprecated methods

I'm using grid, when I click on an image or video it opens but when I swipe left right I don't see the prev/next photo and the count on the navigation bar doesn't update. Is there something i've to do to enable it?

This is more of a wish list:

• MediaBrowserDelegate.CameraRoll(n) is a shared instance that sources from the camera roll where n is the last n media according to date
• live photo preview
• configurable edit, trash, share icons with callbacks to the delegate for the action
