Calling a function to the alter constraints using UITapGestureRecognizer in Swift - arrays

Question

This code has a button when pressed a large blue box becomes a small blue box. How can the code be written so that when the blue box is touched it will transform into the small box without the need for a button.
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
let colorview = UIView()
var initialc = [NSLayoutConstraint]()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
colorview.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
colorview.backgroundColor = UIColor.blueColor()
self.view.addSubview((colorview))
let leadingc = colorview.leadingAnchor.constraintEqualToAnchor(self.view.leadingAnchor)
let trailingC = colorview.trailingAnchor.constraintEqualToAnchor(self.view.trailingAnchor)
let topc = colorview.topAnchor.constraintEqualToAnchor(self.view.topAnchor)
let bottomc = colorview.bottomAnchor.constraintEqualToAnchor(self.view.bottomAnchor, constant: -50)
initialc.appendContentsOf([leadingc,trailingC,topc,bottomc])
NSLayoutConstraint.activateConstraints(initialc)
}
#IBAction func changethebleep(sender: AnyObject) {
NSLayoutConstraint.deactivateConstraints(initialc)
let widthc = colorview.widthAnchor.constraintEqualToConstant(100)
let heightc = colorview.heightAnchor.constraintEqualToConstant(100)
let centerxc = colorview.centerXAnchor.constraintEqualToAnchor(self.view.centerXAnchor)
let centeryc = colorview.centerYAnchor.constraintEqualToAnchor(self.view.centerYAnchor)
NSLayoutConstraint.activateConstraints([widthc,heightc,centerxc,centeryc])
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
}

In viewDidLoad()
let tapGestureRecognizer = UITapGestureRecognizer(target:self, action:#selector(ViewController.myFunction(_:)))
colorview.userInteractionEnabled = true
colorview.addGestureRecognizer(tapGestureRecognizer)
In myFunction()
func myFunction(sender: AnyObject) {
NSLayoutConstraint.deactivateConstraints(initialc)
let widthc = colorview.widthAnchor.constraintEqualToConstant(100)
let heightc = colorview.heightAnchor.constraintEqualToConstant(100)
let centerxc = colorview.centerXAnchor.constraintEqualToAnchor(self.view.centerXAnchor)
let centeryc = colorview.centerYAnchor.constraintEqualToAnchor(self.view.centerYAnchor)
NSLayoutConstraint.activateConstraints([widthc,heightc,centerxc,centeryc])
}
By adding a tap gesture recognizer, you do not need a button. The tap gesture calls the function that handles the constraints. I've tested the code in my own project and it all works as it should.
Good Luck!
