UISearchDisplayController Error - Swift

I am following this tutorial and I have run into some trouble. I am implementing a search bar and display controller to filter results.

Below is an image of the error I am getting:

enter image description here

The main errors are:

  1. UISearchDisplayController was deprecated
  2. Cannot subscript a value of type [String]?

Any help in order to fix these issues will be helpful.

Below is the rest of my code:

    import UIKit

    class TableViewController: UITableViewController, UISearchBarDelegate, UISearchDisplayDelegate {

var candies = [Candy]()
var filteredCandies = [Candy]()
var resultSearchController = UISearchController()

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    // Uncomment the following line to preserve selection between presentations
    // self.clearsSelectionOnViewWillAppear = false

    // Uncomment the following line to display an Edit button in the navigation bar for this view controller.
    // self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = self.editButtonItem()

    self.candies = [Candy(category:"Chocolate", name:"Chocolate Bar"),
        Candy(category:"Chocolate", name:"chocolate chip"),
        Candy(category:"Hard", name:"lollipop"),
        Candy(category:"Hard", name:"candy cane"),
        Candy(category:"Other", name:"caramel"),
        Candy(category:"Chocolate", name:"chocolate chip")]

    self.tableView.reloadData()

}

override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
    super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
    // Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.

}

func filterContentForSearchText(searchText: String, scope: String = "All"){

    self.filteredCandies = self.candies.filter({(candy: Candy) -> Bool in

        let categoryMatch = ( scope == "All") || (candy.category == scope)
        let stringMatch = candy.name.rangeOfString(searchText)
        return categoryMatch && (stringMatch != nil)
    })
}

func searchDisplayController(controller: UISearchDisplayController, shouldReloadTableForSearchString searchString: String?) -> Bool {
    let scopes = self.searchDisplayController!.searchBar.scopeButtonTitles
    let selectedScope = scopes[self.searchDisplayController!.searchBar.selectedScopeButtonIndex] as String
    self.filterContentForSearchText(searchString, scope: selectedScope)
    return true    }

func searchController(controller: UISearchController, shouldReloadTableForSearchScope searchOption: Int) -> Bool {

    let scope = self.searchDisplayController!.searchBar.scopeButtonTitles
    self.filterContentForSearchText(self.searchDisplayController!.searchBar.text!, scope: scope[searchOption])
    return true
}

// MARK: - Table view data source

override func numberOfSectionsInTableView(tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
    // #warning Incomplete implementation, return the number of sections
    return 1
}

override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
    // #warning Incomplete implementation, return the number of rows
    if tableView == searchDisplayController!.searchResultsTableView {
        return self.filteredCandies.count
    } else {

        return self.candies.count
    }
}


override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
    let cell = self.tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("cell", forIndexPath: indexPath)

    // Configure the cell...
    //let candy = self.candies[indexPath.row]

    var candy : Candy

    if tableView == self.searchDisplayController!.searchResultsTableView {
        candy = filteredCandies[indexPath.row]
    }else {
        candy = candies[indexPath.row]
    }
    cell.textLabel?.text = candy.name

    return cell
}

  1. UISearchDisplayController was deprecated

UISearchDisplayController was deprecated in iOS 8. You can use UISearchController, it's very similar to UISearchDisplayController. For example, check this tutorial: http://www.jhof.me/simple-uisearchcontroller-implementation/

  1. Cannot subscript a value of type [String]?

scopeButtonTitles returns optional value, so scopes is an optional. Optional array must be unwrapped before subscripting, force-unwrapped in this way:

let scope = self.searchDisplayController!.searchBar.scopeButtonTitles
self.filterContentForSearchText(self.searchDisplayController!.searchBar.text!, scope: scope![searchOption])

or with any additional optional-checking logic:

if let scope = scope {        
    self.filterContentForSearchText(self.searchDisplayController!.searchBar.text!, scope: scope[searchOption])
} else {
// handle error
}
