Installation

iOSEasyList is available through CocoaPods. To install it, simply add the following line to your Podfile:

pod 'iOSEasyList'

Usage

  1. Define your model
struct Movie{
    let id : String
    let title : String
}

//optional: If you want to use Diffable capabilities (e.g. automatic animations like delete, insert, move , reload)
//           inherit 'Diffable' ptotocol
extension Movie:Diffable{
    var diffIdentifier: String {
        return id
    }

    //optional: this function need for automatic reload
    func isEqual(to object: Any) -> Bool {
        guard let to = object as? Model else { return false }

        return self.id==to.id &&
               self.title==to.title
    }
}
  1. Define TableViewAdapter in ViewController
lazy var adapter: TableViewAdapter = { [unowned self] in
    let adapter=TableViewAdapter(tableView: tableView) { (tv, ip, item) -> (UITableViewCell) in
        let cell = tv.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: MovieCell.reuseIdentifier, for: ip) as! MovieCell
        cell.data = item as? Movie
        return cell
    }
    
    //optional
    adapter.animationConfig = AnimationConfig(reload: .fade, insert: .top, delete: .bottom)
    
    return adapter
}()
