Follow Me Button for iOS

A UIButton subclass which mimics the Twitter follow button and will open the profile of the configured user on whatever Twitter App is currently installed (native Twitter app preferred if installed).

Installation

The easiest way is to use CocoaPods. If you don't already, here's a guide.

pod 'CJMTwitterFollowButton', '~>0.1.0'

Usage

The CJMTwitterFollowButton can be created in Interface Builder by adding a UIButton and changing it's class to CJMTwitterFollowButton or in code using the initialiser:

CJMTwitterFollowButton *button = [[CJMTwitterFollowButton alloc] initWithOrigin:CGPointMake(135, 125)
                                                                 twitterAccount:@"chrismaddern"
                                                                        andSize:CJMButtonSizeSmall];
