AcionSheetController is an iOS control for presenting a view in an iOS action sheet or alert style. You can add a custom view, representing your custom content, and add any number of buttons to represent actions related to that content. You can also forgo any custom view and simply present a number of actionable buttons.
AcionSheetController is written in Swift and was inspired by RMActionController by Roland Moers. AcionSheetController differs in a number of aspects, firstly, of course, by being written in Swift, and also importantly by basing itself on UIStackView.
By default ActionSheetController doesn't contain a content view, and will only show buttons for any actions you add. To show a content view you simply set the contentView property to hold the desired view. There is generally no need to subclass ActionSheetController, although you can if you want to.
Lets say you want to add a date picker:
- You instantiate a UIDatePicker
- You instantiate an action and consult the date picker in its handler, to extract the selected date.
- You set the picker as the content view of the ActionSheetController
private func datePickerSheet() -> ActionSheetController {
let pickerView = UIDatePicker(frame: CGRectZero)
let okAction = ActionSheetControllerAction(style: .Done, title: "OK", dismissesActionController: true) { controller in
let date = pickerView.date
let action = AlertAction(title: "Hurray!", style: .Default, enabled: true, isPreferredAction: true) {
print("Dismissed!")
}
let alertInfo = AlertInfo(title: "Success", message: "You picked date: \(date.description)", actions: [action])
AlertPresenter.sharedAlertPresenter.addAlert(alertInfo)
}
let cancelAction = ActionSheetControllerAction(style: .Cancel, title: "Cancel", dismissesActionController: true, handler: nil)
let sheetController = ActionSheetController(title: "Date Picker", message: "Pick a date for your enjoyment…", cancelAction: cancelAction, okAction: okAction)
sheetController.contentView = pickerView
return sheetController
}Presenting the controller is pretty standard:
var sheetController = self.datePickerSheet()
self.controller.presentViewController(sheetController, animated: true, completion: nil)ActionSheetController can be presented as a popover on iPad, and it has a light and a dark theme, suitable for different context, and/or personal preference.
To use ActionSheetController simply drag the files ActionSheetController.swift and ActionSheetControllerAction.swift into your project.
