I'm trying to implement functionality to respond to FORCE_CHANGE_PASSWORD on my iOS app that uses AWS Cognito. I used this Stack Overflow question which references this sample code. Right now, my code opens a view controller like it's supposed to; however, once on that view controller, I can't get it to do anything. In the sample code, it seems that when you want to submit the password change request you call .set on an instance of AWSTaskCompletionSource<AWSCognitoIdentityNewPasswordRequiredDetails>, yet when I do this, the protocol function didCompleteNewPasswordStepWithError is never called. Interestingly, the other protocol function getNewPasswordDetails is called quickly after viewDidLoad and I can't tell why. I believe this shouldn't be called until the user has entered their new password, etc and should be in response to .set but I could be wrong.
My code is pretty identical to the sample code and that SO post, so I'm not sure what's going wrong here.
My relevant AppDelegate code is here:
extension AppDelegate: AWSCognitoIdentityInteractiveAuthenticationDelegate {
func startNewPasswordRequired() -> AWSCognitoIdentityNewPasswordRequired {
//assume we are presenting from login vc cuz where else would we be presenting that from
DispatchQueue.main.async {
let presentVC = UIApplication.shared.keyWindow?.visibleViewController
TransitionHelperFunctions.presentResetPasswordViewController(viewController: presentVC!)
print(1)
}
var vcToReturn: ResetPasswordViewController?
returnVC { (vc) in
vcToReturn = vc
print(2)
}
print(3)
return vcToReturn!
}
//put this into its own func so we can call it on main thread
func returnVC(completion: @escaping (ResetPasswordViewController) -> () ) {
DispatchQueue.main.sync {
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "ResetPassword", bundle: nil)
let resetVC = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "ResetPasswordViewController") as? ResetPasswordViewController
completion(resetVC!)
}
}
}
My relevant ResetPasswordViewController code is here:
class ResetPasswordViewController: UIViewController, UITextFieldDelegate {
@IBAction func resetButtonPressed(_ sender: Any) {
var userAttributes: [String:String] = [:]
userAttributes["given_name"] = firstNameField.text!
userAttributes["family_name"] = lastNameField.text!
let details = AWSCognitoIdentityNewPasswordRequiredDetails(proposedPassword: self.passwordTextField.text!, userAttributes: userAttributes)
self.newPasswordCompletion?.set(result: details)
}
}
extension ResetPasswordViewController: AWSCognitoIdentityNewPasswordRequired {
func getNewPasswordDetails(_ newPasswordRequiredInput: AWSCognitoIdentityNewPasswordRequiredInput, newPasswordRequiredCompletionSource: AWSTaskCompletionSource<AWSCognitoIdentityNewPasswordRequiredDetails>) {
self.newPasswordCompletion = newPasswordRequiredCompletionSource
}
func didCompleteNewPasswordStepWithError(_ error: Error?) {
DispatchQueue.main.async {
if let error = error as? NSError {
print("error")
print(error)
} else {
// Handle success, in my case simply dismiss the view controller
SCLAlertViewHelperFunctions.displaySuccessAlertView(timeoutValue: 5.0, title: "Success", subTitle: "You can now login with your new passowrd", colorStyle: Constants.UIntColors.emeraldColor, colorTextButton: Constants.UIntColors.whiteColor)
self.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
}
}
}
}
Thank you so much for your help in advance and let me know if you need any more information.
