Can you provide all assets in a separate archive?

HOLY MOLY BRIAN. I didn't know you could drag away breakpoints to delete them. Cool trick

Hi.. I don'k now how current user's uid can get that time. coz we didn't make login page...

Hi Brian !!! Thanks for awesome courses, i have a question.... why i can not see username on titile , it just uid like NVJ3O9U6NHQpxxqxpPjrOTmkv653...

Great as always. Brian: snapshot.value as? NSDictionary vs snapshot.value as? [String: Any] pros/cons, should I care?

Hi Brian, I was following along up to the point where we add the MainTabBarController to AppDelegate, and then I got stuck. When I first set up the project, I followed the instructions from your Kindle Basic Training course to remove Main.storyboard. I found that the only way for me to get the blue window in this video is to add the storyboard back to the project, along with adding "Main" back to Deployment Info --> Main Interface. I'm not sure how or why it works like this; can you explain this to me? Thank you so much!

Probably most satisfying video yet as we now know how to query firebase database to display things....great session!

I was wondering, Should I implement UI programmatically without using storyboard in real world applications? I think using the programmatic approach in learning is very important to understand the basics and how everything work, but in real world applications, i may try to use storyboard to save time and effort, so i focus on business logic. What do you think Mr. Brain ? Is that the way to go or you prefer other approach ?

Brian, first of all awesome work and great vid! Small question: At the very end of the video you did not use a guard statement on the username variable. While i understand that we have unwrapped the dictionary using guard statement, i would have expected the username variable to be optional because of the down casting as a optional string. So when you print username to the console, it is optional, but when displayed in the navigation title, it is not. What magic is apple doing behind the scenes? lol

Is anyone having an issue with the input accessory view getting stuck at the bottom. When exiting comment screen

Brian, I have a question can you teach us how to make a like page? What I mean by that is when I ran your complete project, the likes/notifications page was empty. Can you teach up how to fix that and how when someone comments or likes my photo I recieve a notification

Hi Brian, great vid. I have a question though. Regarding the Navigation controller, why was it set inside the tabbarcontroller and not inside userprofilecontroller? Does it make a difference on where it is placed? What if not all the tabs will have a nav controller (i'm referring to the top nav bar in case I got it wrong). Thanks.

Mundane question. When you use an image asset by name in the latest version of Xcode, it only shows the thumbnail image, unlike your setup where you see the image name and the thumbnail. I know you can do UIImage(named: "foo") to fix this, but is there a setting somewhere in the editor to change this behavior? Thanks!

Hi Brian. I try to learn your course on new xcode and swift. I have error with override func in MainTabBarController. When I delete override, I haven't got error but func doesn't work.

Hi Brian, great course and videos! I was wondering why even though I've already made the sign up page and signed in users, how come no username, not even the uid is showing in the navigation title?

Wow, nice class Brian, congrats.

Hi, Congratulations on class, fine. I'm adapting you tube lessons on mensager to those of instagram. I'm having trouble collecting the index path of a colectionview, I hope you can help me. @objc func deleteSelectdItemAction (_ sender: AnyObject?) {                 if let IndexPaths = collectionView? .indexPathsForSelectedItems {             for IndexPath in IndexPaths {                 if cell = collectionView? .cellForItem (at: IndexPath) CustomerCell {                     print (cell)                 }             }         }                  // reference (to: .clients) .document ("SrZr1cg0LT1nSPiWBp7E"). delete ()              } ===================================================== I need to retrieve the unique identifier of the firebase "SrZr1cg0LT1nSPiWBp7E" which in the case is relative of the query that I am doing This is the result, but I want to access this value: SrZr1cg0LT1nSPiWBp7E <ClinicalClearCell: 0x7f84c2c62270; baseClass = UICollectionViewCell; frame = (0 320; 414 100); layer = <CALayer: 0x6040002331a0 >> How can I do it?  In your courses there is no example that shows how to delete an item from the collection view, this is a failure of your courses

It's ok But how do I do this from a common function? I'm not using a collection view event @objc func deleteSelectdItemAction (_ sender: AnyObject?) { // How to retrieve an indexPath from this point, that's the question } In fact I'm pretty lost, you could have fianlizado this knowledge when talking about collections in messenger classes. Because the issue is not only to delete the element but rather to work the layout so that the checkbox appears dynamically next to the cell when clicking on the deletion as well as the in the wathsaap application

What I need to rescue is the parent I need to redeem the document code

Just curious. And maybe this will be answered at a later point. If there was no network connection does the application error?

Hey Brian and classroom folks , is anyone kind enough to explain why on the dictionary unwrapping thing : guard let dictionary = snapshot.value as?[String: Any] else { return } let username = dictionary["username"] as? String we had -> dictionary?["username"] instead of -> dictionary["username"]! before the guard statement? Whats the purporse of the ? after the dictionary word, don't you force unwrap with the "!" ?

Hey Brian, When I try to retrieve the user name, the Xcode console prints out <null>. I have no idea why, and copied your code. fileprivate func fetchUser() { guard let uid = Auth.auth().currentUser?.uid else { return } Database.database().reference().child("users").child(uid).observeSingleEvent(of: .value, with: { (snapshot) in print(snapshot.value ?? "") }) { (err) in print("Failed to fetch user:", err) } } Any idea why it prints <null>? Thanks

Hi Bryan, I'm having 2 issues rn 'FirebaseCore/FirebaseCore.h' file not found Could not build Objective-C module 'Firebase' I tried this: Quit Xcode. Delete project's temp files located at ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData Delete ProjectName.xcworkspace Delete Podfile.lock file and Pods folder Run pod install. Open the newly created ProjectName.xcworkspace file and build. or pod update or anything I can with google search. I'm not sure what cause the issue Its really complicated and I do not have enough time( I do not really want to) to start over. Any suggestion?

my Xcode wont let me do the same as you do at 8:52 let userProfileController = UserProfileController(collectionViewLayout: layout) --> Incorrect argument label in call (have 'collectionViewLayout:', expected 'coder:') please help!

Hey brian, Question, are there changes in xcode/swift that's affecting the main.storyboard? I can't seem to delete it from the general tab. I deleted the main.storyboard file then tried deleting main from the general tab but everytime I run it, it keeps crashing and when I look at the error, its looking for "main" in the bundle and when I click on the general tab again, its there even after just deleting it. I tried deleting it then clicking on a different file (viewcontroller) then when I click on general again, its there. I tried doing a new project and doing that first and I'm getting the same thing. Any thoughts?

If any other students are having issues on lesson 5, solution below. After creating the UIWindow in the App delegate, "window = UIWindow() window?.rootViewController = MainTabBarController()" Was not sufficient to display the MainTabBarController(). After doing some research I found that you can simply fix this by adding this line of code below "window?.makeKeyAndVisible()" Brian, do you have any idea why I needed to specify this? I assume it is because I have deleted my storyboard? Thank you

Hey Brian, I'm having a problem trying to fetch user... I'm getting the following error: Error Domain=com.firebase Code=1 "Permission Denied" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Permission Denied} I've looked in Firebase docs but cannot seem to find what I'm looking for (or maybe I just don't understand it yet). In Firebase Storage, I left the default rules at: service firebase.storage { match /b/{bucket}/o { match /{allPaths=**} { allow read, write: if request.auth != null; } } } Do I need to change the rules, or is my problem somewhere else?

Hey Brian, I am trying to add breakpoints like you did in the video to see if there's data coming in from the database. The console is outputting "unable to read data" for the uid as opposed to the actual uid of the user. Do you have suggestions to fix this problem? Thank you.

Hey Brian, I'm having an issue where i'm unable to fetch the Username from Firebase. class UserProfileController: UICollectionViewController, UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout { override func viewDidLoad(){ super.viewDidLoad() collectionView?.backgroundColor = .white navigationItem.title = Auth.auth().currentUser?.uid fetchUser() I'm unable to see the username in the navController. it worked when I tried just navigationItem.title = "User Profile" but just not when i'm connecting to firebase using Auth.auth().currentUser?.uid I tried using Auth.auth()?.currentUser?.uid but that gives me the error of "Cannot use optional chaining on non-optional value of type 'Auth' Replace '?' with " " Which then that put's me right where I was before unfortunately. If you or anyone could help me out that would be much appreciated. Thank You.

There seems to be almost a one second delay before the username pops up in the title bar. I don't think it's the internet since I've run the app in multiple locations. Could this delay have something to do with code or with my database?

----- here it's just a small shortcut ---- Hey @Brian & all, if you want add a NEW FILE / Class, than just use: FILE -> NEW -> File -> Cocoa Touch Class -> than name it like your Example "MainTabBarController" and make it Subclass of: "UITabBarController" (or what for subclass needed) Than you get directly an file with Import UIkit, correct class definition and viewDidLoad... and dont lose time :-)

Dumb question: does using "fileprivate" block you from accessing that method if you were to write an extension to the UserProfileController class in another file?

Hi Brian where's the best source to get good icon images?

Great Stuff!

In the LinkedIn app, when you click a tabBar icon, there’s a good animation where the menu icon is colored from the center to the edges. It would be cool to learn the tricks of that animation!

Under the heading: "Is It Just Me". I am running through this lesson while building another App and when trying to present the Tab Bar Item (icon) I now Have-To provide a Let statement above calling the icon?! Is that something NEW in Xcode 10?? Thanks! -Patrick let home_selected = UIImage(named: "home_selected") let home_unselected = UIImage(named: "home_unselected") navController.tabBarItem.image = home_unselected navController.tabBarItem.selectedImage = home_selected

Hello Brian, The Username is not showing up on my navigation bar. I get the string "User Profile" but never get the username on the bar. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Hello got a quick question again. When we are getting the user data snapshot how does it know what we want. In the tree we have both the username and the user profile image right? So when we did fileprivate func fetchUser(){ guard let uid = Auth.auth().currentUser?.uid else { return } Database.database().reference().child("users").child(uid).observeSingleEvent(of: .value, with: { (DataSnapshot) in print(DataSnapshot.value ?? "") }) { (err) in print("Failed to print out user") } } This how did it know to go for the username other than the user profile image?

Howdy! I was wondering if there is a map VC that I can call? In instagram you can display your location when you take a picture and look on maps to see where it is. In the beginning of this video you set up all of your controllers such as navigation controller and I was wondering is there a way to call apple maps? Instead of using the storyboard, because that's the only way I know how to do it.... Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks you.

Hi Brian, I have been trying resolve this problem and maybe it's something very simple but I can't figure out what is the cause of my problem. I can't seem to be able to select the images in the Assets in my MainTabController, I tried to see if people had problems with this too but I didn't find anything, also I googled in Stack Overflow and also didn't find much.. I can't seem able to set the profile_selected and profile_unselected image in the navController. Is there something that I can do to fixed this? Thanks in advance.

link to download the project ?

Hello Brian, Since you mostly speak about two or three topics in one video like this one, we have first how to implement root controller and fetching user, I suggest you mark the begging of the next topic with a slide or whatever just to make it easy to navigate through the video. Hope I have my point clear .

Hi Brian, I believe this is a Firebase issue. I am not getting the UN to show up, but instead the long string. (1.) all reference code is exact (2.) I am logged in to Firebase (3.) Again, in the newest version of Firebase, it appears that they make you configure your own database (even for the legacy "Real Time Database") so this could be the problem as well.

here's my updated code for Xcode 11, in SceneDelegate func scene(_ scene: UIScene, willConnectTo session: UISceneSession, options connectionOptions: UIScene.ConnectionOptions) { guard let windowScene = (scene as? UIWindowScene) else { return } window = UIWindow(windowScene: windowScene) window?.rootViewController = MainTabBarController() }

Hi Brian, I tried to set the rootViewController as a MainTabBarController and it keep start at ViewController when I run the project. I am using Xcode 11.2 and swift 5 and there are SceneDelegate and AppDelegate which UIwindow is located at SceneDelegate and I try to figure it out and I don't know yet. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi Brian, I'm setting up the UserProfile and I'm getting two navigation bars. The title is on the second nav bar as well. Is there a fix to this? Thanks!
