swift - iOS Animate Mask Over UIImage -


i using swift 1.2 , goal animate image mask on static uiimage. have implemented swift version of masking image found in objective-c. 

func maskimage(image: uiimage, mask: uiimage) -> uiimage! {      let maskref = mask.cgimage;      let mask = cgimagemaskcreate(         cgimagegetwidth(maskref),         cgimagegetheight(maskref),         cgimagegetbitspercomponent(maskref),         cgimagegetbitsperpixel(maskref),         cgimagegetbytesperrow(maskref),         cgimagegetdataprovider(maskref), nil, false);      let masked = cgimagecreatewithmask(image.cgimage, mask);     let retimage = uiimage(cgimage: masked);     return retimage; }

it works great! however, putting in motion challenge.

is there way either iteratively apply mask different horizontal offset or better way approach problem entirely - perhaps calayer implementation?

thanks help!

edit: based on posted answer, added this:

    let image = uiimage(named: "clouds");      let imageview = uiimageview(image: image);     let layer = calayer();     layer.contents = uiimage(named: "alpha-mask")?.cgimage;     layer.bounds = cgrectmake(0, 0, image.size.width, image.size.height);      // other folks learning, did not work     //let animation = cabasicanimation(keypath: "bounds.origin.x");      // work     let animation = cabasicanimation(keypath: "position.x");      animation.duration = 2;     animation.delegate = self;     animation.fillmode = kcafillmodeforwards;     animation.repeatcount = 0;     animation.fromvalue = 0.0;     animation.tovalue = image.size.width;     animation.timingfunction = camediatimingfunction(name: kcamediatimingfunctionlinear);     animation.removedoncompletion = false;      layer.addanimation(animation, forkey: "transform");      imageview.layer.mask = layer;      self.addsubview(imageview);

i able see alpha mask properly, animation not work. ideas?

edit: modified code above , works! needed make keypath position.x. see above

you indeed want use calayer - or rather, cashapelayer.

you can create cashapelayer , install as mask on layer.

you can create caanimation animates changes shape layer's path, or can animate changes layer's strokestart and/or strokeend properties.

if animate path, 1 rule want follow make sure starting , ending path have same number , type of control points. otherwise animation "undefined", , results can strange.

i have development blog post outlines how it's done:

http://wareto.com/using-core-animation-groups-to-create-animation-sequences-2

it's using caanimationgroups, includes working example of animating changes cashapelayer that's used mask of image view's layer.

below gif of mask animation creates - "clock wipe" shows , hides image view:

enter image description here

unfortunately it's written in objective-c, core animation calls identical in swift. let me know if have problems figuring out how adapt it.

the meat of animation code method:

- (ibaction)domaskanimation:(id)sender; {    waretologolarge.hidden = false;//show image view    //create shape layer use mask waretologolarge image view   cashapelayer *masklayer = [cashapelayer layer];    cgfloat maskheight = waretologolarge.layer.bounds.size.height;   cgfloat maskwidth = waretologolarge.layer.bounds.size.width;    cgpoint centerpoint;   centerpoint = cgpointmake( maskwidth/2, maskheight/2);    //make radius of our arc large enough reach corners of image view.   cgfloat radius = sqrtf(maskwidth * maskwidth + maskheight * maskheight)/2;    //don't fill path, stroke in black.   masklayer.fillcolor = [[uicolor clearcolor] cgcolor];   masklayer.strokecolor = [[uicolor blackcolor] cgcolor];    masklayer.linewidth = radius; //make line thick enough fill circle we're drawing    cgmutablepathref arcpath = cgpathcreatemutable();    //move starting point of arc there no initial line connecting arc   cgpathmovetopoint(arcpath, nil, centerpoint.x, centerpoint.y-radius/2);    //create arc @ 1/2 our circle radius, line thickess of full circle radius   cgpathaddarc(arcpath,                nil,                centerpoint.x,                centerpoint.y,                radius/2,                3*m_pi/2,                -m_pi/2,                yes);    masklayer.path = arcpath;    //start empty mask path (draw 0% of arc)   masklayer.strokeend = 0.0;    cfrelease(arcpath);    //install mask layer out image view's layer.   waretologolarge.layer.mask = masklayer;    //set our mask layer's frame parent layer's bounds.   waretologolarge.layer.mask.frame = waretologolarge.layer.bounds;    //create animation increases stroke length 1, reverses zero.   cabasicanimation *swipe = [cabasicanimation animationwithkeypath:@"strokeend"];   swipe.duration = 2;   swipe.delegate = self;   [swipe setvalue: theblock forkey: kanimationcompletionblock];    swipe.timingfunction = [camediatimingfunction      functionwithname:kcamediatimingfunctionlinear];   swipe.fillmode = kcafillmodeforwards;   swipe.removedoncompletion = no;   swipe.autoreverses = yes;    swipe.tovalue = [nsnumber numberwithfloat: 1.0];    [masklayer addanimation: swipe forkey: @"strokeend"]; }

i have blog entry is in swift shows how create , animate pie chart using cashapelayer. project animates shape, not mask, real difference whether install shape layer regular content layer or mask on layer backing layer of image view.
