iOS开发 widget构建详解及实现代码

    运行程序后，会发现一个问题：绘制的内容与左侧边界有一定距离(约30px)。如何解决这个问题呢，如图6所示，TodayViewController遵守的NCWidgetProviding协议给出了解决方案。

调起app

    因为extension和containing app是两个完全独立的进程，所以它们之间不能直接通信(不能像应用内部点击按钮，跳转到指定页面)。为了实现widget调起app，这里通过openURL的方式来启动containing app。

- (void)openURLContainingAPP{ //通过extensionContext借助host app调起app [self.extensionContext openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"appextension://xxx"] completionHandler:^(BOOL success) { NSLog(@"open url result:%d",success); }]; }

数据共享

图7 添加App Groups

   通过App Groups提供的同一group内app共同读写区域，可以用NSUserDefaults和NSFileManager两种方式实现extension和containing app之间的数据共享。

1 通过NSUserDefaults共享数据

保存数据
- (void)saveDataByNSUserDefaults{ NSUserDefaults *shared = [[NSUserDefaults alloc] initWithSuiteName:@"group.c om.xxx"]; [shared setObject:@"asdfasdf" forKey:@"widget"]; [shared synchronize]; 
}
读取数据
- (NSString *)readDataFromNSUserDefaults{ NSUserDefaults *shared = [[NSUserDefaults alloc] initWithSuiteName:@"group.c om.xxx"]; NSString *value = [shared valueForKey:@"widget"]; return value;
 }

保存数据
- (BOOL)saveDataByNSFileManager{ NSError *err = nil; NSURL *containerURL = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] containerURLForSecuri tyApplicationGroupIdentifier:@"group.com.xxx"]; containerURL = [containerURL URLByAppendingPathComponent:@"Library/Caches/ widget"]; NSString *value = @"asdfasdfasf"; BOOL result = [value writeToURL:containerURL atomically:YES encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:&err]; if (!result) { NSLog(@"%@",err); } else { NSLog(@"save value:%@ success.",value); } return result; 
}
读取数据
- (NSString *)readDataByNSFileManager{ NSError *err = nil; NSURL *containerURL = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] containerURLForSecuri tyApplicationGroupIdentifier:@"group.com.xxx"]; containerURL = [containerURL URLByAppendingPathComponent:@"Library/Caches/ widget"]; NSString *value = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:containerURL encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding error:&err]; return value; 
}
