Can't get Cell Swipe Actions to work - swift3

Question

It's been awhile since I've made a fool of myself here, so here goes again as I'm still trying to learn and feel as though I'm chasing my tail on this project.
With that said, ultimately I would like to get Jerkoch's SwipeCellKit to work, but not necessary at this point as I just need to figure out how to add more options other than just the 'delete' cell action.
This is what I've got: My Project
This is what I'd like: Jerkoch's Project
I loose my data if I set the delegate property on tableView from
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "CommentCell", for: indexPath) as! CommentTableViewCell
to
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "CommentCell", for: indexPath) as! SwipeTableViewCell
Here is my CommentViewController Code:
import UIKit
import SwipeCellKit
class CommentViewController: UIViewController {
var postId: String!
var comments = [Comment]()
var users = [User]()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
tableView.tableFooterView = UIView(frame: CGRect.zero)
tableView.separatorInset = UIEdgeInsets.zero
tableView.dataSource = self
tableView.estimatedRowHeight = 100
tableView.rowHeight = UITableViewAutomaticDimension
loadComments()
}
func loadComments() {
Api.Post_Comment.REF_POST_COMMENTS.child(self.postId).observe(.childAdded, with: {
snapshot in
Api.Comment.observeComments(withPostId: snapshot.key, completion: {
comment in
self.fetchUser(uid: comment.uid!, completed: {
self.comments.append(comment)
self.tableView.reloadData()
})
})
})
}
func fetchUser(uid: String, completed: #escaping () -> Void ) {
Api.User.observeUser(withId: uid, completion: {
user in
self.users.append(user)
completed()
})
}
}
extension CommentViewController: UITableViewDataSource {
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return comments.count
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "CommentCell", for: indexPath) as! CommentTableViewCell// Can't update this to SwipeTableViewCell - Will loose data
cell.selectedBackgroundView = createSelectedBackgroundView()
let comment = comments[indexPath.row]
let user = users[indexPath.row]
cell.comment = comment
cell.user = user
cell.delegate = self
return cell
}
}
extension CommentViewController: SwipeTableViewCellDelegate{
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, commit editingStyle: UITableViewCellEditingStyle, forRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
}
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, editActionsForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath, for orientation: SwipeActionsOrientation) -> [SwipeAction]? {
guard orientation == .right else { return nil }
let deleteAction = SwipeAction(style: .destructive, title: "Delete") { action, indexPath in
// handle action by updating model with deletion
}
// customize the action appearance
deleteAction.image = UIImage(named: "delete")
let flagAction = SwipeAction(style: .destructive, title: "Flag") { action, indexPath in
// handle action
}
deleteAction.image = UIImage(named: "flag")
let blockAction = SwipeAction(style: .destructive, title: "Block") { action, indexPath in
// handle action
}
deleteAction.image = UIImage(named: "block")
return [deleteAction, flagAction, blockAction]
}
}
I've even tried something like the following:
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, commit editingStyle: UITableViewCellEditingStyle, forRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
// THIS GIVES THE DEFAULT 'DELETE' ACTION
print("Commit editingStyle")
}
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, editActionsForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> [UITableViewRowAction]? {
print("editActionsForRowAtIndexPath")
let blockAction = UITableViewRowAction(style: UITableViewRowActionStyle.normal, title: "Block", handler: { (action:UITableViewRowAction, IndexPath:IndexPath) in
//self.isEditing = false
print("Block action Pressed")
})
let flagAction = UITableViewRowAction(style: UITableViewRowActionStyle.normal, title: "Flag", handler: { (action:UITableViewRowAction, IndexPath:IndexPath) in
print("Flag action Pressed")
})
let deleteAction = UITableViewRowAction(style: UITableViewRowActionStyle.destructive, title: "Delete", handler: { (action:UITableViewRowAction, IndexPath:IndexPath) in
print("Delete action Pressed")
})
return [blockAction, flagAction, deleteAction]
}
No matter what I do, I can't get more than just the generic 'Delete' action to show on a swipe action.
I don't even think the following function is being called/referenced:
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, editActionsForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> [UITableViewRowAction]? {
What am I doing wrong, or what do I need to CUD to get 3 swipe actions; Delete, Flag and Block, to make Apple happy for my next submission.
Thank you all in advance!

This question is outdated but i'll write the answer which i think would have done the trick :)
You should be using UITableViewController not UIViewController for your view. SwipeCellKit only works with TableViewControllers.
