How to use

Customize

Customize autocomplete suggestions! You can override the provided properties to create your desired appearance. Properties are pretty self explanatory. Some of them are listed below, with their respective default values:

/// Font for the text suggestions
public var autoCompleteTextFont = UIFont(name: "HelveticaNeue-Light", size: 12)
/// When set to true, shows autocomplete text with formatting
public var enableAttributedText = false
/// User Defined Attributes
public var autoCompleteAttributes:[String:AnyObject]?
/// Hides autocomplete tableview after selecting a suggestion
public var hidesWhenSelected = true

Setting Content

The most important property to use is the autoCompleteStrings. As what is declared in the description setting the value of this will automatically reload the tableview, through the use of didSet

/// The strings to be shown on as suggestions, setting the value of this automatically reload the tableview
public var autoCompleteStrings:[String]?{
   didSet{ reload() }
}

User Interactions

To handle text changed event, use onTextChange: closure. This returns the current text content of the textfield.

autocompleteTextfield.onTextChange = {[weak self] text in 
// your code goes here
...
}

To know when user selected a text, use onSelect: closure: This returns the selected text and it's indexPath.

autocompleteTextfield.onSelect = {[weak self] text, indexpath in
// your code goes here
...
}

It's that easy! Feel free to use it, don't worry, it's free. :)
