An easier way to compose attributed strings

Travis Status CocoaPods compatible Carthage compatible Platform

TextAttributes makes it easy to compose attributed strings.

let attrs = TextAttributes()
    .font(name: "HelveticaNeue", size: 16)
    .foregroundColor(white: 0.2, alpha: 1)
    .lineHeightMultiple(1.5)

NSAttributedString(string: "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog", attributes: attrs)

Features

  • Strongly typed properties
  • Chainable setter methods
  • A direct access to the NSParagraphStyle properties
  • Better autocompletion

Usage

  • Get or set the TextAttributes properties:
attrs.font = UIFont(name: "HelveticaNeue", size: 16)
attrs.backgroundColor = .white

See all the properties

  • Method chaining:

The TextAttributes methods return Self to allow method chaining:

attrs
    .lineHeightMultiple(1.5)
    .underlineStyle(.styleSingle)

See all the methods

  • The methods are also constructors:

The following are equivalent:

attrs
    .font(name: "HelveticaNeue", size: 16)
    .foregroundColor(white: 0.2, alpha: 1)
let font  = UIFont(name: "HelveticaNeue", size: 16)
let color = UIColor(white: 0.2, alpha: 1)

attrs
    .font(font)
    .foregroundColor(color)
  • Access the underlying dictionary:
attrs.dictionary // Returns the attributes dictionary of type [NSAttributedString.Key: Any]
