How to Load Image from Local Path iOS Swift (By Path)

how to load image from local image path Ios Swift 4

I have solved my issue using fileURLWithPath

let url = URL.init(fileURLWithPath: "/VWiOSProjects/CollageMakerDemo/Development/CollageMaker/CollageMaker/Goodies.xcassets/Goodies-1.imageset/Goodies-1.png")

let imageData:NSData = NSData(contentsOf: url)!

let image = UIImage(data: imageData as Data)

cell.imgTool.image = image

Load image form Gallery in swift from path given by UIImagePickerViewController?

Save image in Document Directory taken from Gallery or Camera.

 func origionalImage(origionalImage: UIImage!, editedImage: UIImage!, userInfo info: [NSObject : AnyObject]!) {

            let imageData = NSData(data:UIImagePNGRepresentation(origionalImage)!)
            let paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSSearchPathDirectory.DocumentDirectory, NSSearchPathDomainMask.UserDomainMask, true)
            let docs: String = paths[0]

            let imageName = self.randomStringWithLength(6) as String
            //imageName can save in sqlite to load image later
            let fullPath = String("\(docs)/\(imageName).png")
             print(fullPath)
            let result = imageData.writeToFile(fullPath, atomically: true)
            print("FILE WRITTEN SUCCESS=>:\(result)")
}

Load Image from Database

        let tempDBObject = self.petListArray[indexPath.row] as! Database
        cell?.petName.text = tempDBObject.Hname
        //Doc Path
        let documentDirectory = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(.DocumentDirectory, .UserDomainMask, true).first! as String
        let imagePath = String("\(documentDirectory)/\(tempDBObject.Hpath!)")
        if imagePath == "" {
        }else{
           cell?.petImageView.image = UIImage(contentsOfFile: imagePath)
        }

Swift 3 load image from local directory

You'll want to save a reference to PHAsset objects, not URL strings.

Start with defining your Array as:

var imagesList = [PHAsset]()

Then, in didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:

func imagePickerController(_ picker: UIImagePickerController, didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo info: [String : Any]) {

    dismiss(animated: true)

    // get the selected image as a UIImage object
    let image = info[UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage] as! UIImage
    imageView.image = image

    // save a PHAsset reference in imagesList array for later use
    if let imageUrl = info[UIImagePickerControllerReferenceURL] as? URL{

        let assets = PHAsset.fetchAssets(withALAssetURLs: [imageUrl], options: nil)

        if let p = assets.firstObject {

            imagesList.append(p)

        }

    }

}

Next, add a couple "convenience" functions:

func getAssetFullsize(asset: PHAsset) -> UIImage {
    let manager = PHImageManager.default()
    let option = PHImageRequestOptions()
    var img = UIImage()
    option.isSynchronous = true
    let w = asset.pixelWidth
    let h = asset.pixelHeight
    manager.requestImage(for: asset, targetSize: CGSize(width: w, height: h), contentMode: .aspectFit, options: option, resultHandler: {(result, info)->Void in
        img = result!
    })
    return img
}

func getAssetThumbnail(asset: PHAsset) -> UIImage {
    let manager = PHImageManager.default()
    let option = PHImageRequestOptions()
    var thumbnail = UIImage()
    option.isSynchronous = true
    let w = 100
    let h = 100
    manager.requestImage(for: asset, targetSize: CGSize(width: w, height: h), contentMode: .aspectFit, options: option, resultHandler: {(result, info)->Void in
        thumbnail = result!
    })
    return thumbnail
}

and finally, when you want to get the actual image:

func changeImage(_ sender: Any) {
    if imagesList.count > 0 {

        // get the full-size image from PHAsset
        imageView.image = getAssetFullsize(asset: imagesList[indexList])

        // or, just get a thumbnail-sized image
        //imageView.image = getAssetThumbnail(asset: imagesList[indexList])

        indexList = (indexList + 1) % imagesList.count

    }
}

Naturally, you'll want to add appropriate error-checking, your own sizing, naming, tracking, etc... but I think this is the direction you want to head.

UIImage from path or filename in Swift 3

This might help

let documentDirectory = FileManager.SearchPathDirectory.documentDirectory
let userDomainMask    = FileManager.SearchPathDomainMask.userDomainMask
let paths             = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(documentDirectory, userDomainMask, true)
if let dirPath        = paths.first
{
   let imageURL = URL(fileURLWithPath: dirPath).appendingPathComponent("name.png")
   let image    = UIImage(contentsOfFile: imageURL.path)
   // Do whatever you want with the image
}
