ios - Share via AirDrop only

Question

I want to bring out the share sheet with the AirDrop as the only option in my application.

In iOS 7, I could simple add all share types to the excludedActivityTypes property of UIActivityViewController (UIActivityTypeMessage, UIActivityTypeMail, ...)

But now in iOS 8, with the app extensions, the users may have extra sharing providers that show up. Is there any way to show AirDrop only?

UIActivityViewController *controller = [[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:@[[NSURL URLWithString:url]]
                                                                         applicationActivities:nil];

NSArray *excludedActivities = @[UIActivityTypePostToTwitter, UIActivityTypePostToFacebook,
                                UIActivityTypePostToWeibo,
                                UIActivityTypeMessage, UIActivityTypeMail,
                                UIActivityTypePrint, UIActivityTypeCopyToPasteboard,
                                UIActivityTypeAssignToContact, UIActivityTypeSaveToCameraRoll,
                                UIActivityTypeAddToReadingList, UIActivityTypePostToFlickr,
                                UIActivityTypePostToVimeo, UIActivityTypePostToTencentWeibo];

class AirDropOnlyActivityItemSource : NSObject, UIActivityItemSource {

    /// The item you want to send via AirDrop.
    let item: AnyObject

    init(item: AnyObject) {
        self.item = item
    }

    func activityViewControllerPlaceholderItem(activityViewController: UIActivityViewController) -> AnyObject {
        /// Use an empty URL as placeholder to let iOS Share Sheet show the AirDrop only.
        return NSURL(string: "")!
    }

    func activityViewController(activityViewController: UIActivityViewController, itemForActivityType activityType: String) -> AnyObject? {
        return item
    }   
}
