SwipeableTabBarController

Installation

CocoaPods

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

pod "SwipeableTabBarController"

Manual

Drop the classes inside of SwipeableTabBarController/Classes into your project.

Usage

If you don't need subclassing UITabBarController just set the UITabBarController on the Storyboard to be of type SwipeableTabBarController.

Otherwise, make a subclass of SwipeableTabBarController.

Example:

import SwipeableTabBarController

class TabBarController: SwipeableTabBarController {
    // Do all your subclassing as a regular UITabBarController.
}

Animations

SwipeableTabBarController supports 3 different types of animations out of the box. Setting the desired animation is easy. On your SwipeableTabBarController subclass just do:

setSwipeAnimation(type: SwipeAnimationType.push)

If you are supporting just one type of animation call it on viewDidLoad() otherwise call it as you need to change the desired animation.

Side by Side (default)

The default animation is SwipeAnimationType.sideBySide where the newly selected tab will move in at the same speed the previous one moves out.

Overlap

SwipeAnimationType.overlap the newly selected tab will move in to take the central place on top of the previous one which will hold it's position.

Push

SwipeAnimationType.push follows iOS default push animation where the top view moves away while the bottom one slightly moves behind. In this case, the top view will be the previously selected tab view.

Restricted Swipe

You can choose to restrict your swiping to perfect horizontal swipe or support diagonal movement as well. I recommend enabling horizontal swipe if you are not using any kind of scrollViews on your controllers.

Default value is false

setDiagonalSwipe(enabled: true)

Example

To run the example project, clone the repo, and run pod install from the Example directory first.
