AI-generated Key Takeaways
-
AuthorAttributionis a struct in GooglePlacesSwift that provides information about the author of a place review or photo. -
It includes properties like
displayName,url, andphotoUrlto represent the author's identity and online presence. -
AuthorAttributionconforms toCustomStringConvertible,Equatable, andHashableprotocols for string representation, comparison, and hashing. -
You can create an instance of
AuthorAttributionby providing the author's display name, URL, and photo URL. -
It also offers computed properties like
descriptionandhashValuefor convenient access to its attributes.
AuthorAttribution
struct AuthorAttributionextension AuthorAttribution : Copyable, CustomStringConvertible, Equatable, Escapable, Hashable, Sendable-
Returns a Boolean value indicating whether two values are equal.
Equality is the inverse of inequality. For any values
aandb,a == bimplies thata != bisfalse.Declaration
Swift
static func == (lhs: AuthorAttribution, rhs: AuthorAttribution) -> BoolParameters
lhsA value to compare.
rhsAnother value to compare.
-
A textual representation of this instance.
Calling this property directly is discouraged. Instead, convert an instance of any type to a string by using the
String(describing:)initializer. This initializer works with any type, and uses the customdescriptionproperty for types that conform toCustomStringConvertible:struct Point: CustomStringConvertible { let x: Int, y: Int var description: String { return "(\(x), \(y))" } } let p = Point(x: 21, y: 30) let s = String(describing: p) print(s) // Prints "(21, 30)"The conversion of
pto a string in the assignment tosuses thePointtype’sdescriptionproperty.Declaration
Swift
var description: String { get } -
Returns the name of the author.
Declaration
Swift
var displayName: String { get } -
Hashes the essential components of this value by feeding them into the given hasher.
Implement this method to conform to the
Hashableprotocol. The components used for hashing must be the same as the components compared in your type’s==operator implementation. Callhasher.combine(_:)with each of these components.Important
In your implementation of
hash(into:), don’t callfinalize()on thehasherinstance provided, or replace it with a different instance. Doing so may become a compile-time error in the future.Declaration
Swift
func hash(into hasher: inout Hasher) -
The hash value.
Hash values are not guaranteed to be equal across different executions of your program. Do not save hash values to use during a future execution.
Important
hashValueis deprecated as aHashablerequirement. To conform toHashable, implement thehash(into:)requirement instead. The compiler provides an implementation forhashValuefor you.Declaration
Swift
var hashValue: Int { get } -
Returns the
AuthorAttributionwith a displayName, URL, and author photoURL.Declaration
Swift
init(displayName: String, url: URL? = nil, photoUrl: URL? = nil) -
Returns the profile photo URL of the author.
Declaration
Swift
var photoUrl: URL? { get } -
Returns the URL of the author.
Declaration
Swift
var url: URL? { get }
