IntentRecommendation
An object that describes a recommended intent configuration for a user-customizable widget.
Declaration
struct IntentRecommendation<T> where T : INIntentOverview
By adding a custom SiriKit intent definition to your project and using an IntentTimelineProvider, you allow users to configure widgets to show data that’s most relevant to them. Some platforms don’t have a dedicated user interface to configure all of your intent parameters. For example, watchOS doesn’t offer a dedicated user interface to configure data that appears on a complication. Use intent recommendations in watchOS to offer preconfigured complications that show data that’s most relevant to the user.
For example, say you develop a game app that allows users to view their in-game character. With intent recommendations, you can recommend an intent configuration for a watch complication that displays character information.
The following example shows a function to create a list of recommended configurations for a game widget that shows current energy levels for a game character.
public func recommendations() -> [IntentRecommendation<DynamicCharacterSelectionIntent>] {
return CharacterDetail.availableCharacters.
map { character in
let hero = Hero(identifier: character.name, display: character.name)
let intent = DynamicCharacterSelectionIntent()
intent.hero = hero
return IntentRecommendation(intent: intent, description: Text(character.name))
}
}
