Create a location vCard for use in UIActivityViewController like in Apple's Maps app.

LocationVCard.swift

import CoreLocation

func locationVCardURLFromCoordinate(coordinate: CLLocationCoordinate2D) -> NSURL?
{
    guard let cachesPathString = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(.CachesDirectory, .UserDomainMask, true).first else {
        print("Error: couldn't find the caches directory.")
        return nil
    }
    
    guard CLLocationCoordinate2DIsValid(coordinate) else {
        print("Error: the supplied coordinate, \(coordinate), is not valid.")
        return nil
    }
    
    let vCardString = [
        "BEGIN:VCARD",
        "VERSION:3.0",
        "N:;Shared Location;;;",
        "FN:Shared Location",
        "item1.URL;type=pref:http://maps.apple.com/?ll=\(coordinate.latitude),\(coordinate.longitude)",
        "item1.X-ABLabel:map url",
        "END:VCARD"
        ].joinWithSeparator("\n")
    
    let vCardFilePath = (cachesPathString as NSString).stringByAppendingPathComponent("vCard.loc.vcf")
    
    do {
        try vCardString.writeToFile(vCardFilePath, atomically: true, encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding)
    }
    catch let error {
        print("Error, \(error), saving vCard: \(vCardString) to file path: \(vCardFilePath).")
    }
    
    return NSURL(fileURLWithPath: vCardFilePath)
}

I think you should return nil in catch block too.

I'm getting this error, can you please help? *** Value of type '[String]' has no member 'joinWithSeparator' ***. This would be on line 24 on your code shown above. I'm basically doing this because I need to be able to send the location to other users but I can't find the way of doing it.

.joined(separator: "\n")

It's now been renamed to joined(separator: "\n")
