一款iOS第三方输入法,供分享、学习和拓展之用。
输入法开发在众多App中较为小众,因为现实中,不仅仅是输入个字母、数字、字符或者表情就行的。
输入汉字,要想做到基本的需求,你得有联想、模糊查询、热词搜索、智能纠错、自定义词库等等,还不包括语音输入,手写输入,拍照输入……。
所以要想做成一款优质的输入法,需要一定的技术积累,包括自然语言处理的经验等等,也就不奇怪,在这方面,搜狗、百度和腾讯都很厉害了,毕竟都有很强的搜索班底。
但是对于个人开发者而言,其实也可以试试的,因为相应的技术已经不少已经成熟,很多可以拿过来直接用,还有就是要让自己的App有特点,有吸引人的地方,比如简便易用,专注某项输入的开发(表情输入法),或者自设计某个独特的功能点。
现阶段呢,关于输入法的文档非常少,除了几篇概括性、纲领性的文章,也就没了其他详解文章。这也是我写这个项目的主要目的,希望有志于开发输入法的开发者在摸索过程中,在爬坑过程中,能少走很多弯路。
这一步其实各大教程都有的,为了尽可能详细,就截几张图吧:
创建一个singleview Application,这个就是输入法的设置界面。
添加一个target,即app extension(扩展),选择输入法扩展
大概的目录结构如下
//主要的viewcontorller:keyboardviewcontroller,在这里实现输入法的界面、输入事件等等
首先看个大概的输入法界面吧。
总体来讲,还是挺美观的,哈哈,这是模仿的系统的字母键盘界面,包括字母的输入、大小写切换、长按快速删除、地球键切换等等。
这里面的所有按键都是自己绘制的,包括字母按键、shift(大小写切换键)、delete(删除键)和输入法切换键(地球键)。
动态图如下:
单击shift这个按键,会允许当前首字母大写,并重新绘制界面。
双击shift按键,会开启全部字母大写设置,并重新绘制界面
短按delete按键,每次删除一个字符
长按delete按键,加速删除,要注意下,你可能感觉观看效果删除缓慢,实际效果不是这样的,但是我转 gif 时,不知怎的就是慢,暂时就这样
为了解决这些问题,所以本项目都是用自定义View来实现button的效果,自己绘制传入的字符。代码如下:
为了实现按键的效果,重载touchesBegan,touchesEnd这两个方法,然后在其中添加backView(背景图,暗一点),即可实现按键效果。
/*---------------------------普通按键的自定义View---------------------------*/
class NormalButton: UIView
{
var buttonTitle:String!; //按键上的title
var fillColor:UIColor! //填充背景色
override init(frame: CGRect)
{
super.init(frame: frame);
self.fillColor = UIColor.whiteColor();//初始化为白色
self.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false;
self.layer.cornerRadius = 6.0;
self.clipsToBounds = true;
self.layer.masksToBounds = true;
self.multipleTouchEnabled = false
self.exclusiveTouch = true;
}
required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder)
{
super.init(coder: aDecoder);
}
override func touchesBegan(touches: Set, withEvent event: UIEvent?)
{
super.touchesBegan(touches, withEvent: event)
self.addSubview(BackButtonView(frame: self.bounds))
}
override func touchesEnded(touches: Set, withEvent event: UIEvent?)
{
super.touchesEnded(touches, withEvent: event)
for v in self.subviews
{
v.removeFromSuperview();
}
}
func setFillcolor(color:UIColor)
{
self.fillColor = color;
}
func setTitle(title:String)
{
self.buttonTitle = title;
}
/*---------------------------自主绘制按键---------------------------*/
override func drawRect(rect: CGRect)
{
let fontSize = UIFont.systemFontOfSize(18.0); //设置字体大小
let fontColor = UIColor.blackColor(); //设置字体颜色
let context:CGContextRef = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()!
let backgroundcolor = UIColor(red: 209/255.0, green: 213/255.0, blue: 219/255.0, alpha: 1.0);
CGContextSetFillColorWithColor(context, backgroundcolor.CGColor);
let roundedRect:UIBezierPath = UIBezierPath(roundedRect: rect, cornerRadius: 6.0)
let paragraphStyle:NSMutableParagraphStyle = NSMutableParagraphStyle.defaultParagraphStyle().mutableCopy() as! NSMutableParagraphStyle
paragraphStyle.lineBreakMode = NSLineBreakMode.ByTruncatingTail;
paragraphStyle.alignment = NSTextAlignment.Center;
let titleAttr:NSDictionary = [NSFontAttributeName:fontSize,NSForegroundColorAttributeName:fontColor,NSParagraphStyleAttributeName:paragraphStyle];
let titleSize = self.buttonTitle.sizeWithAttributes(titleAttr as? [String : AnyObject]);
let float_x_pos = (rect.size.width - titleSize.width)/2;
let float_y_pos = (rect.size.height - titleSize.height)/2;
let point_title = CGPoint(x: float_x_pos,y: float_y_pos);
CGContextFillRect(context, rect);
self.fillColor.setFill()
roundedRect .fillWithBlendMode(CGBlendMode.Normal, alpha: 1)
self.buttonTitle.drawAtPoint(point_title, withAttributes: titleAttr as? [String : AnyObject]);
}
}
再展示下地球键的绘制吧,这个比较复杂点,因为很多开发者可能没接触过,挺有意思的,但是呢,要想方便,直接贴图就是了。
/*---------------------------地球按键(输入法切换)自绘制---------------------------*/
class EarthButton:UIView
{
override init(frame: CGRect)
{
super.init(frame: frame);
self.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false;
self.layer.cornerRadius = 6.0;
self.multipleTouchEnabled = false;
self.exclusiveTouch = true;
}
required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder)
{
super.init(coder: aDecoder);
}
override func drawRect(rect: CGRect)
{
let context:CGContextRef = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()!;
let roundedRect:UIBezierPath = UIBezierPath(roundedRect: rect, cornerRadius: 6.0);
let backgroundcolor = UIColor(red: 209/255.0, green: 213/255.0, blue: 219/255.0, alpha: 1.0);
CGContextSetFillColorWithColor(context, backgroundcolor.CGColor);
CGContextFillRect(context, rect);
UIColor.lightGrayColor().setFill();
roundedRect .fillWithBlendMode(CGBlendMode.Normal, alpha: 1);
let size:CGSize = rect.size;
let r:CGFloat = CGFloat(12); //(size.height - 12) / 2
let p1:CGPoint = CGPointMake(rect.origin.x + size.width / 2, rect.origin.y + size.height / 2 );//圆心
let p2:CGPoint = CGPointMake(p1.x, p1.y - r * sqrt(2));
let p3:CGPoint = CGPointMake(p1.x, p1.y + r * sqrt(2));
let p4:CGPoint = CGPointMake(p1.x - r*3/4, p1.y);
let p5:CGPoint = CGPointMake(p1.x + r*3/4, p1.y);
CGContextSetStrokeColorWithColor(context, UIColor.whiteColor().CGColor);//设置画笔颜色
CGContextSetLineWidth(context, 1.0);//设置线条粗细
//顺时针画圆
CGContextAddArc(context, p1.x, p1.y, r, 0, CGFloat(M_PI * 2), 0);
CGContextStrokePath(context);
//画上方的弧线
CGContextAddArc(context,p2.x,p2.y,r , CGFloat(M_PI/4), CGFloat(M_PI*3/4),0);
CGContextStrokePath(context);
//画下方的弧线
CGContextAddArc(context,p3.x,p3.y,r , -CGFloat(M_PI*3/4), -CGFloat(M_PI/4),0);
CGContextStrokePath(context);
//画右方的弧线
CGContextAddArc(context,p4.x,p4.y,r * 5 / 4, -atan(4/3), atan(4/3),0);
CGContextStrokePath(context);
//画左方的弧线
CGContextAddArc(context,p5.x,p5.y,r * 5 / 4, CGFloat(M_PI - atan(4/3)), CGFloat(M_PI + atan(4/3)),0);
CGContextStrokePath(context);
//画从上到下的直线
CGContextMoveToPoint(context,p1.x,p1.y - r);
CGContextAddLineToPoint(context, p1.x, p1.y + r);
CGContextStrokePath(context);
//画从左到右的直线
CGContextMoveToPoint(context,p1.x - r ,p1.y);
CGContextAddLineToPoint(context, p1.x + r, p1.y);
CGContextStrokePath(context);
}
}
####界面布局
这么多的按键,如何快速准确,有效的布局呢
使用autolayout,通过写constraint来设置各按键之间的依赖关系,达到快速简便布局的效果。
Masonry的Swift版本是SnapKit,但是我本人觉得不太习惯。所以就用的系统的自己的布局。也挺方便的。
大体思路呢,是讲输入法界面分成四行单独布局,然后行与行之间再布局。就展示下第一行的布局和行与行之间布局逻辑,就是"qwertyuiop"这些字母布局。其他的代码里都有
/*---------------------------第一行内的按键的布局控制---------------------------*/
func addfirstrowButtonConstraints(buttons: [UIView], mainView: UIView)
{
for (index, button) in buttons.enumerate()
{
let topConstraint = NSLayoutConstraint(item: button, attribute: .Top, relatedBy: .Equal, toItem: mainView, attribute: .Top, multiplier: 1.0, constant: 1.0);
let bottomConstraint = NSLayoutConstraint(item: button, attribute: .Bottom, relatedBy: .Equal, toItem: mainView, attribute: .Bottom, multiplier: 1.0, constant: -1.0);
var rightConstraint : NSLayoutConstraint!;
var leftConstraint : NSLayoutConstraint!;
if(index == buttons.count - 1)
{
rightConstraint = NSLayoutConstraint(item: button, attribute: .Right, relatedBy: .Equal, toItem: mainView, attribute: .Right, multiplier: 1.0, constant: -1.0);
}
else
{
let nextButton = buttons[index+1];
rightConstraint = NSLayoutConstraint(item: button, attribute: .Right, relatedBy: .Equal, toItem: nextButton, attribute: .Left,multiplier: 1.0, constant: -4.0);
}
if(index == 0)
{
leftConstraint = NSLayoutConstraint(item: button, attribute: .Left, relatedBy: .Equal, toItem: mainView, attribute: .Left, multiplier: 1.0, constant: 1.0);
}
else
{
let prevtButton = buttons[index-1];
leftConstraint = NSLayoutConstraint(item: button, attribute: .Left, relatedBy: .Equal, toItem: prevtButton, attribute: .Right, multiplier: 1.0, constant: 4.0);
}
mainView.addConstraints([topConstraint, bottomConstraint, rightConstraint, leftConstraint]);
}
for i in 0...buttons.count-2
{
let widthConstraint = NSLayoutConstraint(item: buttons[i], attribute: .Width, relatedBy: .Equal, toItem: buttons[i + 1], attribute: .Width, multiplier: 1.0, constant: 0);
mainView.addConstraint(widthConstraint);
}
}
/*---------------------------行与行之间的布局控制---------------------------*/
func addConstraintsToInputView(inputView: UIView, rowViews: [UIView])
{
for (index, rowView) in rowViews.enumerate()
{
let rightSideConstraint = NSLayoutConstraint(item: rowView, attribute: .Right, relatedBy: .Equal, toItem: inputView, attribute: .Right, multiplier: 1.0, constant: -1);
let leftConstraint = NSLayoutConstraint(item: rowView, attribute: .Left, relatedBy: .Equal, toItem: inputView, attribute: .Left, multiplier: 1.0, constant: 1);
var topConstraint: NSLayoutConstraint;
var bottomConstraint: NSLayoutConstraint;
if(index == 0)
{
topConstraint = NSLayoutConstraint(item: rowView, attribute: .Top, relatedBy: .Equal, toItem: inputView, attribute: .Top, multiplier: 1.0, constant: 3.0);
}
else
{
let prevRow = rowViews[index-1];
topConstraint = NSLayoutConstraint(item: rowView, attribute: .Top, relatedBy: .Equal, toItem: prevRow, attribute: .Bottom, multiplier: 1.0, constant: 3.0);
}
if(index == rowViews.count - 1)
{
bottomConstraint = NSLayoutConstraint(item: rowView, attribute: .Bottom, relatedBy: .Equal, toItem: inputView, attribute: .Bottom, multiplier: 1.0, constant: -1.5);
}
else
{
let nextRow = rowViews[index+1];
bottomConstraint = NSLayoutConstraint(item: rowView, attribute: .Bottom, relatedBy: .Equal, toItem: nextRow, attribute: .Top, multiplier: 1.0, constant: -3.0);
}
inputView.addConstraints([leftConstraint, rightSideConstraint, bottomConstraint, topConstraint]);
}
/*---------------------------行与行之间高度的限制---------------------------*/
let heightConstraintSecond = NSLayoutConstraint(item: rowViews[0], attribute: .Height, relatedBy: .Equal, toItem: rowViews[1], attribute: .Height, multiplier: 1.0, constant: 0);
let heightConstraintThird = NSLayoutConstraint(item: rowViews[1], attribute: .Height, relatedBy: .Equal, toItem: rowViews[2], attribute: .Height, multiplier: 1.0, constant: 0);
let heightConstraintFourth = NSLayoutConstraint(item: rowViews[2], attribute: .Height, relatedBy: .Equal, toItem: rowViews[3], attribute: .Height, multiplier: 1.0, constant: 0);
inputView.addConstraints([heightConstraintSecond, heightConstraintThird, heightConstraintFourth]);
}
因为使用了所有的按键都是view定制的,所以按键方法放在touchesBegan和touchesEnd中实现比较好,有以下几个好处
####1.滑动输入,后续可以添加各按键之间的滑动输入,以加快输入速度
####2.长按删除,其实在button界面里也可以添加手势,不过试用过效果不好。主要在反应不够灵敏,长按一定时间后自动间断。
####3.按键反应,通过直接触屏,反应更快,体验更好
####4.界面可定制化更高,绘图,添加图片,按键效果,都可以自定制。非常方便
####5.UIButton更占系统的资源,使用view自定制的按键,绘制效率更高。
override func touchesBegan(touches: Set, withEvent event: UIEvent?)
{
super.touchesBegan(touches, withEvent: event)
//手指触屏
}
override func touchesEnded(touches: Set, withEvent event: UIEvent?)
{
super.touchesEnded(touches, withEvent: event)
//手指离屏
}
具体可观看代码,github地址在后面。
定义一个枚举类型,标注当前的大小写状态
//定义枚举类型标注shift按键所单击的次数
enum SHIFT_TYPE
{
case SHIFT_LOWERALWAYS;//全小写
case SHIFT_UPPERONCE;//首字母大写
case SHIFT_UPPERALWAYS;//全大写
}
事件:
/*---------------------------单击shift键---------------------------*/
func singleShift(){
if(shiftFlag == SHIFT_TYPE.SHIFT_LOWERALWAYS) //如果原来是纯小写,单机后转换当前字母大写
{
shiftFlag = SHIFT_TYPE.SHIFT_UPPERONCE;
self.txAlphabetPlaneView.buttonShift.setNeedsDisplay();
}
else if(shiftFlag == SHIFT_TYPE.SHIFT_UPPERONCE) //如果是当前字母大写,则转换成纯小写
{
shiftFlag = SHIFT_TYPE.SHIFT_LOWERALWAYS;
self.txAlphabetPlaneView.buttonShift.setNeedsDisplay()
}
else if(shiftFlag == SHIFT_TYPE.SHIFT_UPPERALWAYS)
{
shiftFlag = SHIFT_TYPE.SHIFT_LOWERALWAYS;
self.txAlphabetPlaneView.buttonShift.setNeedsDisplay();
}
self.upgradeAlphabetKeyboard();//更新下界面上的字母
}
/*---------------------------双击shift键---------------------------*/
func doubleShift()
{
if(shiftFlag != SHIFT_TYPE.SHIFT_UPPERALWAYS)
{
shiftFlag = SHIFT_TYPE.SHIFT_UPPERALWAYS;
self.txAlphabetPlaneView.buttonShift.setNeedsDisplay();
}
self.upgradeAlphabetKeyboard();
}
主要实现的就是长按删除的功能。通过设定计时器来实现
//方法是在touesBegan中触屏delete按键时触发
deleteTime = touch.timestamp; //记录下触屏的当前时间
//延迟0.6s后,进行长按的方法调用
self.performSelector(#selector(KeyboardViewController.longDelete), withObject: nil, afterDelay: 0.6);
//长按方法
/*---------------------------长按加速删除---------------------------*/
func longDelete()
{
timer = NSTimer(timeInterval: 0.1, target: self, selector: #selector(UIKeyInput.deleteBackward), userInfo: nil, repeats: true);
NSRunLoop.currentRunLoop().addTimer(timer, forMode: NSDefaultRunLoopMode);
}
//touchesEnd中的方法,间隔小于0.6s,则只执行短按键。手指离屏了,判断下timer是否还开着,开着就关闭掉。
override func touchesEnded(touches: Set, withEvent event: UIEvent?)
{
super.touchesEnded(touches, withEvent: event)
if(deleteTime != 0.0)
{
let diff:NSTimeInterval = (event?.timestamp)! - deleteTime;
if(diff < 0.5)
{
deleteOneCharacter();
NSObject.cancelPreviousPerformRequestsWithTarget(self,selector: #selector(KeyboardViewController.longDelete),object: nil);
}
deleteTime = 0.0;
}
if(timer != nil)
{
timer.invalidate();
timer = nil;
NSObject.cancelPreviousPerformRequestsWithTarget(self,selector: #selector(KeyboardViewController.longDelete),object: nil);
}
}
为什么是第一阶段总结呢,因为才做了个初步的工作,实现了几个基础的功能,后续还会更多添加和优化。
其实,实现起来,就是麻烦了点,难度并不大,不过也算提供一些参考吧,如果能点个赞(star),就更好了,(^o^)/~。
