lvyongtao/FluentDarkModeKit

A library for backporting Dark Mode in iOS

FluentDarkModeKit was designed and developed before Apple‘s official dark mode release. It provides a mechanism to support dark mode for apps on iOS 11+ (including iOS 13).

Features

• Dark Mode support for iOS 11+
• Dynamic theme change within the app without restart
• Simple API design with minimal changes to your existing code

Installation

Requirements

• iOS 11.0+
• Xcode 11.0+
• Swift 5+

Carthage

github "microsoft/FluentDarkModeKit"

Swift Package Manager

Click "Files -> Swift Package Manager -> Add Package Dependency..." in Xcode's menu and search "https://github.com/microsoft/FluentDarkModeKit"

CocoaPods

Get Started

How to Use FluentDarkModeKit

To use FluentDarkModeKit, provide a pair of colors or images instead of a single value. Simply replace existing colors/images with a pair of light and dark colors/images.

Colors

Swift

extension UIColor {
    init(_: DMNamespace, light: UIColor, dark: UIColor)
}

let color = UIColor(.dm, light: .white, dark: .black)

Objective-C

@interface UIColor (FluentDarkModeKit)
- (UIColor *)dm_colorWithLightColor:(UIColor *)lightColor darkColor:(UIColor *)darkColor;
@end

UIColor *color = [UIColor dm_colorWithLightColor:UIColor.whiteColor darkColor:UIColor.blackColor];

Images

Swift

extension UIImage {
    init(_: DMNamespace, light: UIImage, dark: UIImage)
}

let lightImage = UIImage(named: "Light")!
let darkImage = UIImage(named: "Dark")!
let image = UIImage(.dm, light: lightImage, dark: darkImage)

Objective-C

@interface UIImage (FluentDarkModeKit)
- (UIImage *)dm_imageWithLightImage:(UIImage *)lightImage darkImage:(UIImage *)darkImage;
@end

Others

For more complex scenarios, FluentDarkModeKit is similar to what Apple does in iOS 13 (some slight differences). It maintains a global DMTraitCollection which can be accessed through DMTraitCollection.current during custom layout.

For more information on cases you should handle during layout, please refer to Apple's documentation.

FluentDarkModeKit will notify views or view controllers in the current window when the theme changes by calling the following delegate method.

Swift

protocol DMTraitEnvironment: NSObjectProtocol {
    func dmTraitCollectionDidChange(_ previousTraitCollection: DMTraitCollection?)
}

Objective-C

@protocol DMTraitEnvironment <NSObject>

- (void)dmTraitCollectionDidChange:(nullable DMTraitCollection *)previousTraitCollection;

@end
