First of all, Let's say Hello to you all since this is my first post.
I'm going to leave the question as it is, and at the end i'm going to post the end result that solved the problem.
The only thing that was missing was a binding "$" into the ForEach loop.
To the question....
I have a struct:
struct Activity: Hashable {
var id: UUID
var name: String
var description: String
var timesCompleted: Int
mutating func addOne() {
timesCompleted += 1
}
}
I have a class:
class Activities: Identifiable, ObservableObject {
var activities = [Activity]()
init(activities: [Activity] = [Activity]()) {
self.activities = activities
}
}
I have a function that appends one Activity at a time to the array inside Activities:
func save(title: String, description: String) {
let id = UUID()
var activity = Activity(id: id, name: title, description: description, timesCompleted: 1)
activities.activities.append(activity)
}
Up to that point everything is working and doing what it should. Cool, but when i try to use addOne()
inside a ForEach loop insde my view, I get a "Cannot use mutating member on immutable value: 'activity' is a 'let' constant". So I now know that a ForEach loop creates lets instead of vars and that makes the struct inmutable. How can I make it so it gives vars back, or how can I use a for loop inside a View. My code inside this is:
List {
ForEach(activities.activities, id:\.self) { activity in
NavigationLink {
DetailedView(activities: activities, activity: activity)
} label: {
HStack{
Text(activity.name)
Spacer()
Text("\(activity.timesCompleted)")
Button {
activity.addOne() //this is the line that is not compiling
} label: {
Image(systemName: "plus")
}
}
}
}
}
So, now with the answer:
I have a struct; No changes here:
struct Activity: Hashable {
var id: UUID
var name: String
var description: String
var timesCompleted: Int
mutating func addOne() {
timesCompleted += 1
}
}
I have a class: No changes here
class Activities: Identifiable, ObservableObject {
var activities = [Activity]()
init(activities: [Activity] = [Activity]()) {
self.activities = activities
}
}
I have a function that appends one Activity at a time to the array inside Activities: No changes here either.
func save(title: String, description: String) {
let id = UUID()
var activity = Activity(id: id, name: title, description: description, timesCompleted: 1)
activities.activities.append(activity)
}
In the body of ContentView, I added three "$" to make the for loop work.
List {
ForEach($activities.activities, id:\.self) { $activity in
NavigationLink {
DetailedView(activities: activities, activity: $activity)
} label: {
HStack{
Text(activity.name)
Spacer()
Text("\(activity.timesCompleted)")
Button {
activity.addOne() //this is the line that is not compiling
} label: {
Image(systemName: "plus")
}
}
}
}
}
