A simple Checkbox

Primary LanguageSwiftMIT LicenseMIT

SimpleCheckbox aims to accomplish what other ios checkbox controls haven't. To be simple. There's no animations, no IBDesignable to slow down interface builder, and no performance heavy draw methods.

🎉 Features

📒 Documentation

⚖️ Carefully tuned default values.

👨‍💻 Installation

No cocoapods, and no carthage.

Just drag Checkbox.swift into your project to start using it.

NOTE: Demo project requires Xcode 9.

👩‍🍳 Usage

You can create a new Checkbox either programatically:

let checkbox = Checkbox(frame: CGRect(x: 50, y: 50, width: 25, height: 25))

Or using interface builder by dragging a UIView into your view controller and assigning its class to Checkbox.

After hooking up an outlet you can begin customization.

👩‍🎨 Customization

BorderStyle

checkbox.borderStyle = .circle
checkbox.borderStyle = .square

CheckmarkStyle

checkbox.checkmarkStyle = .circle
checkbox.checkmarkStyle = .square
checkbox.checkmarkStyle = .cross
checkbox.checkmarkStyle = .tick

Events

There are two methods for detecting when a tap event has occured and the isChecked property has changed.

Add Target

checkbox.addTarget(self, action: #selector(checkboxValueChanged(sender:)), for: .valueChanged)

.......

@objc func checkboxValueChanged(sender: Checkbox) {
    print("checkbox value change: \(sender.isChecked)")
}

Closure

checkbox.valueChanged = { (value) in
    print("checkbox value change: \(value)")
}

Touch Area

Checkboxs can sometimes appear smaller than their UIButton and UISwitch counterparts which can make them difficult to activate.

SimpleCheckbox has a way for you to tune the touch raduis to extend beyond its frame.

checkbox.increasedTouchRadius = 5 // Default
