How to delete an item from UICollectionView with indexpath.row

Question

I have a collection view,and I tried to delete a cell from collection view on didSelect method.I succeeded in that using the following method

  [colleVIew deleteItemsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath]];

But now I need to delete the item on button click from CollectionView Cell.Here I get only the indexpath.row. From this I am not able to delete the Item. I tried like this.

-(void)remove:(int)i {

    NSLog(@"index path%d",i);
   [array removeObjectAtIndex:i];

   NSIndexPath *indexPath =[NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:i inSection:0];
   [colleVIew deleteItemsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath]];
    [colleVIew reloadData];
  }

But it needs to reload the CollectionView.So the animation of cell arrangement after deletion is not there. Please suggest an idea..thanks in advance

Solution 1

-(void)remove:(int)i {

    [self.collectionObj performBatchUpdates:^{
        [array removeObjectAtIndex:i];
        NSIndexPath *indexPath =[NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:i inSection:0];
        [self.collectionObj deleteItemsAtIndexPaths:[NSArray arrayWithObject:indexPath]];

    } completion:^(BOOL finished) {

    }];
}

Try this. It may work for you.

Solution 2

Swift 3 solution:

func remove(_ i: Int) {

    myObjectsList.remove(at: i)

    let indexPath = IndexPath(row: i, section: 0)

    self.collectionView.performBatchUpdates({
        self.collectionView.deleteItems(at: [indexPath])
    }) { (finished) in
        self.collectionView.reloadItems(at: self.collectionView.indexPathsForVisibleItems)
    }

}

and example delete call:

self.remove(indexPath.row)

Solution 3

swift 3:

func remove(index: Int) {
    myObjectList.remove(at: index)

    let indexPath = IndexPath(row: index, section: 0)
    collectionView.performBatchUpdates({
        self.collectionView.deleteItems(at: [indexPath])
    }, completion: {
        (finished: Bool) in
        self.collectionView.reloadItems(at: self.collectionView.indexPathsForVisibleItems)
    })
}

Solution 4

[array removeObjectAtIndex:[indexPath row]];
    [collection reloadData]; // Collection is UICollectionView

Try this.

Solution 5

[array removeObjectAtIndex:[indexPath row]];

[self.collectionView deleteItemsAtIndexPaths:@[indexPath]];

Normally it's ok... You can see this post, it deals with same subject.

but I am not getting the indexpath I assigns i = indexpath.row;

@NithinMK you have to assign the indexpath for getting the reference of the cell.

The key to this problem that this answer addresses is both the item to remove from the array and the item to delete from the collectionView both occur inside performBatchUpdates
