I've created a property wrapper that I want to insert some logic into and the "set" value is doing the right thing, but the textfield isn't updating with all uppercase text. Shouldn't the text field be showing all uppercase text or am I misunderstanding how this is working?
Also this is a contrived example, my end goal is to insert a lot more logic into a property wrapper, I'm just using the uppercase example to get it working. I've searched all over the internet and haven't found a working solution.
import SwiftUI
import Combine
struct ContentView: View {
@StateObject var vm = FormDataViewModel()
var body: some View {
Form {
TextField("Name", text: $vm.name)
}
}
}
struct ContentView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
static var previews: some View {
ContentView()
}
}
class FormDataViewModel: ObservableObject {
@Capitalized var name: String = ""
}
@propertyWrapper
public class Capitalized {
@Published var value: String
public var wrappedValue: String {
get { value }
set { value = newValue.uppercased() } //Printing this shows all caps
}
public var projectedValue: AnyPublisher<String, Never> {
return $value
.eraseToAnyPublisher()
}
public init(wrappedValue: String) {
value = wrappedValue
}
}
SwiftUI watches @Published
properties in @StateObject
or @ObservedObject
and triggers UI update on changes of them.
But it does not go deep inside the ObservableObject
. Your FormDataViewModel
does not have any @Published
properties.
One thing you can do is that simulating what @Published
will do on value changes.
class FormDataViewModel: ObservableObject {
@Capitalized var name: String = ""
private var nameObserver: AnyCancellable?
init() {
nameObserver = _name.$value.sink {_ in
self.objectWillChange.send()
}
}
}
Please try.
