UICollectionView show images stored in documents directory

Question

Hello I can get a UITableView to display the file name of images stored in the documents folder. Is there any way to get a UICollectionView to display these images in a collection view?

Thanks Liam

Yes you can. Here is a UICollectionView Programming Guide.

1. Create array of file names
2. Connect data source to UICollectionView
3. In collectionView:cellForRowAtIndexPath: return cell with image using +imageNamed: method.

Remember to create custom cell with UIImageView inside, create outlet.
