How do I adjust my popover to the size of the content in my tableview in swift?

by

In your UITableViewController’s viewDidLoad() you can add an observer:

self.tableView.addObserver(self, forKeyPath: "contentSize", options: .new, context: nil)

Then add this method:

override func observeValue(forKeyPath keyPath: String?, of object: Any?, change: [NSKeyValueChangeKey : Any]?, context: UnsafeMutableRawPointer?) {
    self.preferredContentSize = tableView.contentSize
}

Lastly, in viewDidDisappear(), make sure you remove the observer:

tableView.removeObserver(self, forKeyPath: "contentSize")

This way the popover will automatically adjust size to fit the content, whenever it is loaded, or changed.
