![]() Our EKEventStore instance provides a function called requestAccess(to:). It’s easy to create one – here’s an example:ġ class ViewController : UIViewController, UITableViewDataSource, UITableViewDelegate Creating an instance of EKEventStore provides developers with an API for performing various read/write operations on the user’s calendars and reminder lists.Ī View Controller that interacts with the calendar should hold a reference to an EKEventStore instance. Here’s a look at the Scene with the invisible “NeedPermissionsView” installed:Īt the heart of EventKit is the EKEventStore. One thing I will point out though, is that the View’s alpha has been set to 0 so that I can perform a nice fade in transition if the user denies access. I won’t go into the details of this here, since it’s likely that every implementation of this will be slightly different. Once again, some constraints are involved in getting things to appear correctly at run-time. The way I did this in the sample project was to organize a new View onto the Storyboard Scene which contains a label with some instructions, and a button that takes the user to the Settings page for our app when they tap on it. If your entire app, or even just a portion of it requires access to function, you need a way to inform the user of this, and provide them a way to navigate to settings and grant access manually if possible. There will be times when a user denies access to the calendar before realizing that doing so essentially stops all the functionality provided by your app. “Need permission” view for when access is denied I’ll toggle the table’s visibility based on the user’s granting or denying of the calendar access later, but I thought it was worth pointing out that the initial state of my table view in the example is hidden. Here’s a detailed view of the constraints, along with a visual of what the Storyboard Scene looks like with the table view installed:Īs a final note, I’ve set the hidden property of the table view to true in the Storyboard. I’ve created a short screencast on setting up a table view if you’d like a complete walkthrough: ![]()
