How to create Radiobuttons in SwiftUI? - swiftui

Question

I would like to react on a choice of a user. Something similar to this example:
In a 2nd stage would I like to show additional content below each radiobutton, e.g. moving the buttons 2 and 3 from each other in order to give a list of websites for allowing.
So far I haven't found how to do this in SwiftUI.
Many thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Picker(selection: $order.avocadoStyle, label: Text("Avocado:")) {
Text("Sliced").tag(AvocadoStyle.sliced)
Text("Mashed").tag(AvocadoStyle.mashed)
}.pickerStyle(RadioGroupPickerStyle())
This is the code from the 2019 swiftUI essentials keynote (SwiftUI Essentials - WWDC 2019. Around 43 minutes in the video they show this example.
It will look like this:

check this out...an easy to use SwiftUI RadiobuttonGroup for iOS
you can use it like this:
RadioButtonGroup(items: ["Rome", "London", "Paris", "Berlin", "New York"], selectedId: "London") { selected in
print("Selected is: \(selected)")
}
and here is the code:
struct ColorInvert: ViewModifier {
#Environment(\.colorScheme) var colorScheme
func body(content: Content) -> some View {
Group {
if colorScheme == .dark {
content.colorInvert()
} else {
content
}
}
}
}
struct RadioButton: View {
#Environment(\.colorScheme) var colorScheme
let id: String
let callback: (String)->()
let selectedID : String
let size: CGFloat
let color: Color
let textSize: CGFloat
init(
_ id: String,
callback: #escaping (String)->(),
selectedID: String,
size: CGFloat = 20,
color: Color = Color.primary,
textSize: CGFloat = 14
) {
self.id = id
self.size = size
self.color = color
self.textSize = textSize
self.selectedID = selectedID
self.callback = callback
}
var body: some View {
Button(action:{
self.callback(self.id)
}) {
HStack(alignment: .center, spacing: 10) {
Image(systemName: self.selectedID == self.id ? "largecircle.fill.circle" : "circle")
.renderingMode(.original)
.resizable()
.aspectRatio(contentMode: .fit)
.frame(width: self.size, height: self.size)
.modifier(ColorInvert())
Text(id)
.font(Font.system(size: textSize))
Spacer()
}.foregroundColor(self.color)
}
.foregroundColor(self.color)
}
}
struct RadioButtonGroup: View {
let items : [String]
#State var selectedId: String = ""
let callback: (String) -> ()
var body: some View {
VStack {
ForEach(0..<items.count) { index in
RadioButton(self.items[index], callback: self.radioGroupCallback, selectedID: self.selectedId)
}
}
}
func radioGroupCallback(id: String) {
selectedId = id
callback(id)
}
}
struct ContentView: View {
var body: some View {
HStack {
Text("Example")
.font(Font.headline)
.padding()
RadioButtonGroup(items: ["Rome", "London", "Paris", "Berlin", "New York"], selectedId: "London") { selected in
print("Selected is: \(selected)")
}
}.padding()
}
}
struct ContentView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
static var previews: some View {
ContentView()
}
}
struct ContentViewDark_Previews: PreviewProvider {
static var previews: some View {
ContentView()
.environment(\.colorScheme, .dark)
.darkModeFix()
}
}

I just edited #LizJ answer , by adding Binding instead of didTapActive & didTapInactive , so like that it will looks like other SwiftUI elements
import SwiftUI
struct RadioButton: View {
#Binding var checked: Bool //the variable that determines if its checked
var body: some View {
Group{
if checked {
ZStack{
Circle()
.fill(Color.blue)
.frame(width: 20, height: 20)
Circle()
.fill(Color.white)
.frame(width: 8, height: 8)
}.onTapGesture {self.checked = false}
} else {
Circle()
.fill(Color.white)
.frame(width: 20, height: 20)
.overlay(Circle().stroke(Color.gray, lineWidth: 1))
.onTapGesture {self.checked = true}
}
}
}
}

I'm using swift4, Catalina OS and Xcode 11.2 and was having the issue where RadioGroupPickerStyle was unavailable for iOS and .radiogroup just didn't work (it froze in build) so I made my own that's reusable for other occasions. (notice its only the button so you have to handle the logic yourself.) Hope it helps!
import SwiftUI
struct RadioButton: View {
let ifVariable: Bool //the variable that determines if its checked
let onTapToActive: ()-> Void//action when taped to activate
let onTapToInactive: ()-> Void //action when taped to inactivate
var body: some View {
Group{
if ifVariable {
ZStack{
Circle()
.fill(Color.blue)
.frame(width: 20, height: 20)
Circle()
.fill(Color.white)
.frame(width: 8, height: 8)
}.onTapGesture {self.onTapToInactive()}
} else {
Circle()
.fill(Color.white)
.frame(width: 20, height: 20)
.overlay(Circle().stroke(Color.gray, lineWidth: 1))
.onTapGesture {self.onTapToActive()}
}
}
}
}
TO USE: Put this in any file and you can use it as you would any other view anywhere else in the project. (we keep a global folder that has a buttons file in it)

I will use the previous answer of #LizJ and i will add a text after the radio button to resemble (RadioListTile in Flutter)
struct RadioButton: View {
let ifVariable: Bool //the variable that determines if its checked
let radioTitle: String
var onTapToActive: ()-> Void//action when taped to activate
let onTapToInactive: ()-> Void //action when taped to inactivate
var body: some View {
Group{
if ifVariable {
HStack(alignment: .center, spacing: 16) {
ZStack{
Circle()
.fill(AppColors.primaryColor)
.frame(width: 20, height: 20)
Circle()
.fill(Color.white)
.frame(width: 8, height: 8)
}.onTapGesture {self.onTapToInactive()}
Text(radioTitle)
.font(.headline)
}
} else {
HStack(alignment: .center, spacing: 16){
Circle()
.fill(Color.white)
.frame(width: 20, height: 20)
.overlay(Circle().stroke(Color.gray, lineWidth: 1))
.onTapGesture {self.onTapToActive()}
Text(radioTitle)
.font(.headline)
}
}
}
}
I will also provide an example for the selection logic
we will create a enum for radio cases
enum PaymentMethod: Int {
case undefined = 0
case credit = 1
case cash = 2
}
then we will create #State variable to carry the selection, i will not recreate another SwiftUI view but only explain the basic concept without any boilerplate code
struct YourView: View {
#State private var paymentMethod: PaymentMethod
var body: some View {
RadioButton(ifVariable: paymentMethod == PaymentMethod.credit,radioTitle: "Pay in Credit", onTapToActive: {
paymentMethod = .credit
}, onTapToInactive: {})
RadioButton(ifVariable: paymentMethod == PaymentMethod.cash,radioTitle: "Pay in Cash", onTapToActive: {
paymentMethod = .cash
}, onTapToInactive: {})
}
}
with this previous code you can toggle between radio buttons in SwiftUI with a text after each selection to resemble (RadioListTile in Flutter)
