CollectionViewMultiColumnLayout is a UICollectionViewLayout that resembles a tiled waterfall/mosaic layout (as seen all over the web), with support of multiple columns per section and explicitly assigning a section's items to specific columns:
import CollectionViewMultiColumnLayout
class CollectionViewController: UICollectionViewController {
// ...
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
let layout = CollectionViewMultiColumnLayout()
collectionView.setCollectionViewLayout(layout, animated: false)
}
}
extension CollectionViewController: CollectionViewMultiColumnLayoutDataSource {
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, numberOfColumnsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
// ...
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, columnForItemAt indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> Int? {
// ...
}
}
extension CollectionViewController: CollectionViewMultiColumnLayoutDelegate {
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> CGSize {
// ...
}
// Optional methods:
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout: UICollectionViewLayout, heightForHeaderInSection section: Int) -> CGFloat {
// ...
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout: UICollectionViewLayout, heightForFooterInSection section: Int) -> CGFloat {
// ...
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout: UICollectionViewLayout, insetForSection section: Int) -> UIEdgeInsets {
// ...
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout: UICollectionViewLayout, insetForHeaderInSection section: Int) -> UIEdgeInsets {
// ...
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout: UICollectionViewLayout, insetForFooterInSection section: Int) -> UIEdgeInsets {
// ...
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout: UICollectionViewLayout, minimumInteritemSpacingForSection section: Int) -> CGFloat {
// ...
}
