Just A Table Cell Factory

Just a table cell factory. A lightweight, thin, low coupling table cell factory, which aims at providing highly customised cells with thin setup implementation

######Features

Makes the cell responsible for it self (height, layout)
No Model <-> cell coupling
Reduce ViewController code
Easily Integrated into existing code

####1: Get

Soon.

####2: Using There are a few steps to take in order to use JATableCellFactory.
3 steps, total.

######1 Cells Cells need to implement the protocol JACell
JACell does 3 things:
- Calculate its Height heightFromObject:(id)object atIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath;
- Update itself updateCellWithObject:(id)object atIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath;
- Tell the factory if it is using a nib nibNameForCellOrNil
- these are all required.
######2 Mapping provider JAMapping is a simple class with one function
- Map a Model Class to a cell Class
  mappingFromModelClass:(Class)objectClass toCellClass:(Class)cellClass;
- It's worth mentioning: NSAssert(NO, @"Cell class NEEDS to be a UITableViewCell Subclass");
- One more thing; adding the mapping into the factory
  addObjectMapping:(JAMapping *)m
######3 Datasource UITableViewDatasource UITableViewDelegate Here is where the magic happens
- Cell for row
  return [self.cellFactory cellForObject:anObject atIndexPath:indexPath fromTableView:tableView];
- Height for row
  Class cellClass = [self.cellFactory cellClassFromObject:modelObject];
  return [cellClass heightFromObject:modelObject atIndexPath:indexPath];

####3: TODO's The project is in no way complete and here are some of the things I plan on doing before 1.0

Cocoapods - Integrate this into cocoapods
AppleDoc - HTML generated and Xcode integrated appledoc comments
View Controller based mapping - Add functionality to easily add/preserve ViewController -> Cell mapping.
A Proper Demo - Learn by doing and by looking at what I did.
