GameCenter Integration with SpriteKit

I'm simply trying to log a high score of a single game mode in a game I'm making. I have a leaderboard setup in Game Center on iTunes Connect.

So, my question is, how do I integrate this into my game? I've seen other solutions but can't seem to figure out how they fit into my project.

Thanks!

  1. In your view controller implement the GKGameCenterControllerDelegate

  2. Create a local player

    var localPlayer: GKLocalPlayer = GKLocalPlayer.localPlayer()

  3. Authenticate the player in the viewDidLoad with the game center and present the authentication success

    localPlayer.authenticateHandler = {(ViewController, error) -> Void in
    if((ViewController) != nil) {
        self.presentViewController(ViewController, animated: true, completion: nil)
    }
}

  4. Report your score from anywhere in your game

    if (GKLocalPlayer.localPlayer().authenticated) {
  let gkScore = GKScore(leaderboardIdentifier: "YOUR-LEADERBOARD-ID")
  gkScore.value = Int64(YOUR-SCORE)
  GKScore.reportScores([gkScore], withCompletionHandler: ( { (error: NSError!) -> Void in
        if (error != nil) {
             // handle error
             println("Error: " + error.localizedDescription);
        } else {
             println("Score reported: \(gkScore.value)")
        }
    }))
}
