MB QuickType

Let's Get Started

I would like to add that this is a very early version, and that I am intending to add many more features to it.

If you have an idea, please create an issue, and add an idea tag

Variables

• buttons: [UIButton] is the array where all the UIButton are stored. buttons: [UIButton] is public. This is done to give you full control of the array.

Button height should be 30, width should be adaptable.

• buttonBGColor: UIColor sets the color for all buttons in the list

Default is a nice shade of light blue.

• barBGColor: UIColor sets the background color

Default is set to

Functions

func init(withController: UIViewController, inputView: UIView)

This is the default initializer. No other initializer will work

• param withController is the controller where the button targets are.
• param inputView must be the input view where the keyboard should have MBQuickType as the accessory view.

This document will be updated within the week. Just make sure renderedView() is used last. It returns the final view.

func addButton(withTitle: String, target: Selector)

Even though buttons: [UIButton] is public, this function adds a a preformatted button to the array. The formatting is the same as in the preview image.

func renderedView() -> UIView

Once all settings are set, and all buttons are added, set renderedView() to a variable. renderedView() returns the inputAccessoryView.

Example Implementation

This is the implmentation to get the result above.

import UIKit
import MBQuickType

public class MyViewController {

    // TextField/TextView where you want the MBQuickType to be the inputAccessoryView.
    @IBOutlet weak var myTextField: UITextField!

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

        // Initializing MBQuickType
        let quickType = MBQuickType(withController: self, inputView: self.textField)

        // Adding Buttons
        quickType.addButton(withTitle: "Option1", target: #selector(self.buttonAction(_:)))
        quickType.addButton(withTitle: "Option2", target: #selector(self.buttonAction(_:)))
        //...
        quickType.addButton(withTitle: "Option6", target: #selector(self.buttonAction(_:)))

        // Setting inputAccessoryView as the returned view
        self.myTextField.inputAccessoryView = quickType.renderedView()

    }

}
