#AOHome - Out of the box home application
AOHome is under MIT Licence so if you find it helpful just use it !
###AOHomeDemo
This project help create clean application home view controller with block based animation for background images. You can also choose between NSBundle images or distant images with placeholder while image being downloaded.
The AOMedallionView inherit from AGMedallionView library to add user interaction and delegate method.

Distant background images is using the EGOImageLoader library.

###Code snippet
// First create a new view controller class that inherit from AOHomeViewController class and define the new controller conform to AOHomeViewController delegate protocol. Do not forget to import the AOHomeViewController interface
#import "AOHomeViewController.h"
@interface AOHomeController : AOHomeViewController <AOHomeViewControllerDelegate>
@end
// Then in the .m file define itself as the delegate
- (id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibNameOrNil bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundleOrNil
{
self = [super initWithNibName:nibNameOrNil bundle:nibBundleOrNil];
if (self)
{
[self setDelegate:self];
}
return self;
}
// Then add medallion. One to create a new profile the other one to access existing profile.
- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
[super viewWillAppear:animated];
// Medallion to create new profile
[self addMedallionWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"defaultProfil"]
andTitle:NSLocalizedString(@"Add profile", @"")
newProfile:YES
userInfo:nil];
// Medallion to access existing profile
[self addMedallionWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"tyrion.jpg"]
andTitle:@"Tyrion Lannister"
newProfile:NO
userInfo:@{@"image":[UIImage imageNamed:@"tyrion.jpg"], @"Name": @"Tyrion Lannister"}];
}
// Also implement the delegate methods
- (void)newMedallionTapped
{
NSLog(@"New profile touched up!");
}
- (void)medallionTappedWithUserInfo:(id)userInfo
{
NSLog(@"Medallion profile touched up! > %@", userInfo);
}
- (void)backgroundImageDidLoad:(AOHomeViewController *)bgImage
{
NSLog(@"background image did load");
}
- (void)backgroundImageDidFailLoad:(AOHomeViewController *)bgImage withError:(NSError *)error
{
NSLog(@"background image load did fail with error > %@", error);
}
// Finally load your Home view controller
// Using NSBundle background images
AOHomeController *vc = [[AOHomeController alloc] initWithPanDuration:7.0f
withPanSize:10
andBackgroundImages:@[@"bg_1.jpg", @"bg_2.jpg", @"bg_3.jpg", @"bg_4.jpg", @"bg_5.jpg"]];
// or using distant background images
AOHomeController *vc = [[AOHomeController alloc] initWithPanDuration:7.0f
withPanSize:10
andDistantBackgroundImages:@[@"http://www.hdwallpapersart.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/rainy-paris-iphone-5-wallpaper.jpg", @"http://cdn.crazyleafdesign.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/iphone-5-wallpaper-rain-drops.jpg", @"http://blogigoldhouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Abstract-iPhone-5-wallpaper-igoldhouse.com_.jpg"]
