  • If you found a bug or need help please check older issues, FAQ and threads on StackOverflow before submitting an issue..

Before contribute check the CONTRIBUTING file for more info.

If you use XLSwiftKit in your app, We would love to hear about it! Drop us a line on twitter.

Examples

Follow these 3 steps to run Example project: Clone XLSwiftKit repository, open XLSwiftKit workspace and run the Example project.

Installation

CocoaPods

CocoaPods is a dependency manager for Cocoa projects.

To install XLSwiftKit, simply add the following line to your Podfile:

pod 'XLSwiftKit', '~> 3.2.0'

Carthage

Carthage is a simple, decentralized dependency manager for Cocoa.

To install XLSwiftKit, simply add the following line to your Cartfile:

Implemented functions

This is a list of the helper functions and extensions implemented in this pod.

Extensions

Thought to be a iOS 8 alternative to real UIStackViews

UIFont

  • func heightForString(string: NSString, width: CGFloat) -> CGFloat: Return the height necessary for a text given a width and font size. Same as renderedHeightWithFont extension on String

Helpers

Constraints

  • func suggestedVerticalConstraint(value: CGFloat, q6: CGFloat = 0.9, q5: CGFloat = 0.77, q4: CGFloat = 0.65) -> CGFloat: Scale a value for a vertical constraint constant depending on the current device.

Box

Box is a Wrapper: e.g. Used to wrap any structs in a class so that they can be used where AnyObject is required

Views

  • RoundedView, RoundedImageView and RoundedButton are subclasses of UIView, UIImageView and UIButton with a rounded appearance.
  • GradientView renders a gradient from an array of colors and a direction specified by the colors and direction properties. It spreads the colors evenly through the space.
  • OwnerView is intended to wrap xib views in order to reuse them in storyboards and also instantiate them in code.
    • Usage
      • Create a subclass of OwnerView
      • Set it as the File's Owner of your xib.
      • Connect your xib's view outlets to your subclass if any.
      • Override func viewForContent() -> UIView? to provide the xib's view.
      • Override func setup() to initialize the view. Your xib's view will be accessible through the contentView property.

Others

  • public func JSONStringify(value: AnyObject, prettyPrinted: Bool = true) -> String: Converts a JSON object to a printable String
