An atom is an element that can't be subdivided any further and still retain it's chemical properties. Likewise, Atoms is a repository of highly-reusable objects that each provide a single feature. The repository includes several types of components. Each of the types can be imported specifically with CocoaPods.
Atoms uses Swift 3.0.
The smart views are designed to handle all the boilerplate of creating cells for table views and collection views. To use them, simply inherit from the appropriate class. Then implement a class method/function that handles the specific set up of your cell. For example:
class MyCell: SmartTableViewCell {
@IBOutlet weak var titleLabel: UILabel!
class func cell(tableView: UITableView, name: String) -> Self {
let cell = self.cell(tableView)
cell.titleLabel.text = name
return cell
}
}Combinators are objects that implement simple features. They can then be composed together to build up more complex features. Table view and collection view data sources frequently result in lots of boilerplate and duplicate code in view controllers. These combinators are designed to eliminate this problem and reduce the bulk in view controllers. The combinators are intended to work with the smart views, but the smart views aren't required. You may hook the combinators into your existing cell creation techniques. An example of using the combinators and smart views together is shown below:
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
let objects = [] // Get objects here
let base = BaseDataSource(objects) { (view, indexPath, object) -> Any in
return MyCell.cell(view as! UITableView, name: object as! String)
}
self.dataSource = ReorderableDataSource(base)
