How can I get daily average steps form HealthKit

Question

I'm trying to display the daily amount of steps the user takes. But I don't really know how to manage this.

I already got this code:

let endDate = NSDate()
let startDate = NSCalendar.currentCalendar().dateByAddingUnit(.CalendarUnitMonth, value: -1, toDate: endDate, options: nil)
    
let weightSampleType = HKSampleType.quantityTypeForIdentifier(HKQuantityTypeIdentifierStepCount)
let predicate = HKQuery.predicateForSamplesWithStartDate(startDate, endDate: endDate, options: .None)
    
let query = HKSampleQuery(sampleType: weightSampleType, predicate: predicate, limit: 0, sortDescriptors: nil, resultsHandler: {
        (query, results, error) in
        if results == nil {
            println("There was an error running the query: \(error)")
        }
        
        dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue()) {
            var dailyAVG = Int()
            var steps = results as [HKQuantitySample]
            for var i = 0; i < results.count; i++
            {
                //results[i] add values to dailyAVG
            }
        }
    })
    
 self.healthKitStore.executeQuery(query)

The query gets all the data needed as far as I know. But I don't know how to get the values out of the HKQuantitySample. So I cant test if the correct values are in the HKQuantitySample Array.

Answer 1

You need to loop through steps not results and then use each HKQuantitySample result's quantity property to get the number of steps in that sample, ex:

var dailyAVG:Double = 0
for steps in results as [HKQuantitySample]
{
   // add values to dailyAVG
   dailyAVG += steps.quantity.doubleValueForUnit(HKUnit.countUnit())
}
